Where Did XRP Come From? Former Ripple Exec Drops Bombshell Story

Former Ripple executive David Schwartz recently participated in a public Q&A on X, revealing key historical insights about XRP and Ripple company origins. He attributed the term "drop" for XRP's smallest unit to Arthur Britto, a primary architect of the XRP Ledger, whom he praised for possessing rare and exceptional intelligence. Schwartz clarified that Ripple’s name and its association with the Grateful Dead song were coincidental, stemming from the acquisition of the ripple.com domain from a fan. He highlighted Britto’s foundational contributions, including the built-in decentralized exchange and pathfinding for multi-source payments on the XRP Ledger. When pressed about XRP’s price potential, Schwartz declined to dismiss the possibility of high values like $50 or $100, recalling his past underestimation of crypto price surges.
