That’s convenient! Wasn’t looking for help anyway… Also I’ve said many times, it’s not all about the price that makes payments better. Refresh rate is the other lever. No one can argue with that. Unless you’re blind to reality.
To the XRP Community: I don’t think I can help anyone who thinks that they know more about the XRP Ledger than David Schwartz (the original creator of the XRP Ledger, the Interledger Protocol and also the holder of the original Bitcoin patent that he was awarded in 1989 while

I think it's better to go through life with the ability to change your mind than blindly stick to things that other people say

That Schwartz quote is from Nov 2017 and it’s mainly about market impact + unit bias (low unit price can make big payments harder due to slippage). He’s reiterated similar points recently too. My claim isn’t “David’s wrong” — it’s that in newer architectures you can also
To put this to bed… I’m not saying @JoelKatz is wrong. Im saying there are other factors to liquidity that must be considered. The throughput constraint is liquidity × velocity. David’s point is that for large payments to stay cheap you need deep $-liquidity (otherwise

Anyone who can’t agree with this should not be trusted

At least we will be able to say “we tried”
You know, the crypto community and #XRP in the coming months are about find out about: -pools -netting/velocity -the cash leg is the settlement (CBDCs/stablecoins) -Collateralization and Haircuts -directed reserves (a thing of the past) versus strategic (or operational)

Nothing more fun than building a shopping list of cryptos no one knows about and waiting for a mega crash to load up.

It's astonishing how little people understand ILP (Interledger Protocol.) It's clear as day that people don't actually do their research when they say that Interledger Protocol will use XRP.

Financial institutions are deploying AI agents to automate compliance workflows. But there's a structural gap nobody's talking about: How do you prove to regulators that an AI agent followed policy—without exposing every customer's sensitive data? -- I just published a

The better ODL works… the less XRP needs to be held by anyone outside of AUDD, @Bitso @Bitstamp @BTCMarkets @coinbase @coinsph, independent reserve @pdaxph or @UpholdInc That’s great for payments. Not great for a scarcity-driven price thesis.

Even On-Demand Liquidity doesn’t pre-fund XRP. It pre-funds the origin currency at exchanges. XRP is transient. Bought, converted, sold, recycled.

XRP’s role — if it has one — is outside the cash layer. Between settlement hubs. And crucially: that role does not require XRP to be pre-funded or locked up.
