Enigmatic Ripple Co-Founder Resurfaces After 14 Ye
Arthur Britto, the mysterious co-founder of the XRP Ledger, recently posted a cryptic post on X for the first time in almost 14 years, sparking speculation that a major XRP announcement could be imminent.
Arthur Britto Breaks His Silence
Britto posted for the first time on the X social media platform on Monday for the first time since creating the account in August 2011. The cryptic post features an emoji of a face without a mouth, which typically suggests speechlessness.
Some X users questioned whether his account had been compromised. However, Ripple CTO David Schwartz, Britto’s long-time collaborator, clarified that the post was real and ruled out a hacking incident.
“I can confirm this was not a hack or compromise,” he noted.Britto created the decentralized, open-source XRP Ledger (XRPL) alongside Schwartz and Mt. Gox founder Jed McCaleb and launched it in 2012. He later helped add XRP, a digital asset designed for fast, low-cost global payments that serves as the native cryptocurrency of the XRPL.Britto also co-created NewCoin alongside Schwartz, McCaleb, and Chris Larsen, which was later renamed to OpenCoin before finally rebranding as Ripple. A recently leaked agreement reveals that Britto received 2% of the total supply of XRP (formerly “Ripple Credits”).
However, despite his significant contribution, Britto has remained largely out of the limelight. He has never given interviews, appeared in photographs, or participated in public forums, making him one of the most mysterious figures in the crypto space, akin to the pseudonymous Bitcoin inventor Satoshi Nakamoto. In fact, some crypto community members think Britto is Satoshi.
