XRP Ledger Is A ‘Ghost Chain,’ Chainlink Community Liaison Claims
Chainlink Community Liaison Zach Rynes sparked a debate by labeling the XRP Ledger a "ghost chain," arguing its core investment thesis has failed. He contends that XRP's proposed role as a global bridge currency has been overtaken by stablecoins and modern interoperability infrastructure, which institutions now prefer. Rynes criticized XRPL's low adoption in tokenized assets and stablecoins, stating USD stablecoins have become the dominant bridge asset. He also accused Ripple of socializing costs to XRP holders while privatizing gains for shareholders. XRP advocates, like lawyer Bill Morgan, countered that Ripple and XRPL are separate entities and defended Ripple's business structure. XRP price was $1.4757 at the time of reporting.
