Schwartz: XRP Ledger Needs Independent Players So It Doesn't Serve Only Ripple
- —Schwartz says XRP Ledger's technical challenges are largely solved; liquidity and ramps are the real barriers
- —He warned the ledger could become a tool serving only Ripple's interests
- —Evernorth debuted on Nasdaq and plans to run validators and contribute to the ledger's development
- —Native lending is live on XRP Ledger, but integration with the wider DeFi ecosystem is still missing
Why it matters: The shift in focus from technology to liquidity and integration could accelerate institutional adoption and reduce the network's dependence on Ripple.
