Ripple CTO’s Surprising Plan To Skyrocket XRP’s Popularity

Key Points:

  • Ripple CTO suggests embracing blockchain-agnostic solutions to accelerate XRP adoption and attract a wider audience.
  • Open-source XRP Ledger creators advised against limiting tech to work solely with XRP.
  • Compatibility with multiple assets would eliminate barriers to using XRP and improve user experience.
Ripple’s CTO David Schwartz shared his opinion on the potential advantages of embracing blockchain-agnostic solutions.

He argued that by not limiting a technology to work only with XRP, Ripple’s native digital asset, more people would be attracted to the technology and benefit from improved user experiences.

Schwartz recognized that many people inquire about whether certain technologies should be created exclusively for XRP. However, Schwartz advised against such a move unless it is an XRPL (XRP Ledger) feature. Instead, he suggested making a technology compatible with various assets to attract a wider audience and be more useful to people who might not be interested in XRP.

Schwartz cited Google as an example of the importance of versatility in technology. If Google had made the internet work only for those using Google products, the internet would have been less enjoyable for many users. This would have resulted in fewer internet users, devices, and connections, ultimately limiting the number of people accessing Google’s products and services.

Furthermore, Schwartz emphasized that numerous technologies currently don’t work with XRP. This makes it more challenging for users to switch to XRP if it becomes a better fit for their needs in the future. By eliminating barriers to using XRP and ensuring compatibility with multiple assets, Schwartz believes more people will be drawn to the technology.

To illustrate his point further, Schwartz compared the situation to developing a tool that could open whole fresh coconuts. He posited that a tool designed to open coconuts and also prepare various other foods would be more appealing and widely adopted than one with a single, specific use.

Schwartz believes embracing blockchain-agnostic solutions could accelerate XRP’s adoption and bring more users to the digital asset. By not limiting a technology to work exclusively with XRP, more people will be attracted to the technology, and the user experience will be improved.
