最新报道:Former Ripple Labs developer relations director Matt Hamilton asserts that the XRP Ledger (XRPL) uses the same block hash structure as Bitcoin, grouping transactions into blocks with prior block hashes to create immutable records. He defended XRPL's blockchain status in a debate with Bitcoin advocate David Marcus, who argued alternative cryptocurrencies sacrifice decentralization. Hamilton countered that XRP offers greater decentralization through accessible node operation while addressing Bitcoin's limitations. The discussion coincides with XRPL's recent validator migration requirements and protocol amendments, alongside its total value locked surging from $90 million to $103.67 million, indicating growing institutional engagement.
