最新报道:Ripple's Chief Technology Officer David Schwartz defended the company's XRP escrow system against price manipulation allegations, stating it was designed to ensure predictability and stability in XRP supply. The escrow mechanism, holding 55 billion XRP in timed releases, aims to prevent market flooding while providing transparency. Critics argue the system allows Ripple to influence prices, but Schwartz countered that escrow terms are publicly verifiable on the blockchain. The debate resurfaces as XRP faces regulatory scrutiny, with the SEC's lawsuit alleging Ripple conducted an unregistered securities offering through XRP sales. Ripple maintains XRP is a currency, not a security.
