David Schwartz, Ripple’s CTO, just dropped a “brilliant” idea: slap an Ethereum-compatible sidechain on XRPL to attract developers. Because nothing says “innovation” like begging Ethereum devs to adopt your platform while pretending it’s not desperate. 🤡
“We’re expanding capabilities without changing the basics,” Schwartz declared, as if the XRPL’s core wasn’t already a mystery to everyone except maybe a few die-hard enthusiasts. The sidechain is basically a middle finger to scalability, wrapped in a “trust us, we’re reliable” bow. 🎁
XRPL has 168 developers. For context, that’s about how many people show up to a Zoom call when you schedule it on a Tuesday. Ethereum? 8,500 devs. Solana? 4,000. But hey, maybe those 168 will magic this into a revolution… or at least a viral meme. 🤞
The DeFi apps on XRPL have $94,000 in liquidity. That’s enough to fund one decent ad campaign, or maybe a developer conference where everyone nods and pretends they understand the whitepaper. Moai Finance is leading the charge-because nothing says “trust” like a name that sounds like a Japanese spa. 🛁
Ripple’s “multi-chain” dream is basically a wishful thinking montage set to a J.Lo song. They’re mixing XRPL’s “fast transactions” (if you consider 15 seconds “fast”) with Ethereum’s “flexible features” (if you ignore the gas fees). It’s like saying a toaster oven is a smart kitchen upgrade for a campfire. 🥖🔥
Schwartz admits the sidechain’s progress is slower than a crypto bull run in 2023. But hey, potential! Maybe in five years, when the dust settles, this’ll be the story of how Ripple accidentally invented blockchain’s version of a screensaver. 🖥️
