Ripple’s CTO Defends the XRP Ledger Value

Recall that David Schwartz, Ripple’s Chief Technology Officer (CTO), recently defended the XRP Ledger in an online debate against those who called it a “zero-sum game.” Schwartz underlined that customers gladly pay transaction fees in exchange for the beneficial services provided by the XRPL, emphasizing its function in supporting a range of financial operations and enabling effective asset transfers.

Notably, this explanation highlights the benefits of the XRPL in addition to value transfer, presenting it as a strong foundation for several financial activities. Meanwhile, David Fueling, a renowned engineer connected to RippleX, suggested changes to the XRP Ledger Foundation’s (XRPLF) governance framework. 

Fueling’s plan will advance democratic and decentralized procedures within the foundation in line with the expanding acknowledgment of the XRP Ledger network’s architecture by different protocols.

Ripple Focus on CBDC and Stablecoins

In June, the blockchain provider collaborated with ten governments to work on Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC). The cooperation aims to enhance XRPL utility and foster stablecoins development. Also, the partnerships with these governments highlight the potential of the XRP Ledger to serve as a robust platform for CBDC issuance and management.

In addition to CBDCs, Ripple is focused on stablecoin development, pegged to stable assets like the U.S. dollar. Ripple is gearing up to introduce its stablecoin, RLUSD. The stablecoin will be available on the XRP Ledger and Ethereum (ETH) platforms.
