Ripple SVP: Altcoins Are Here to Stay

2020-11-30 19:29

The days of bitcoin being crypto’s only real game in town are gone for good. Other coins and tokens demonstrate financial utility that bitcoin cannot replicate.

This assessment came from Ripple Senior Vice President Asheesh Birla, speaking on an episode of the Lend Academy podcast on Nov 28. In the course of his appearance on the podcast, where he spoke on everything from Ripplenet’s battle with SWIFT to the potential of gold as a reserve asset, Birla remarked that he “could not be happier” with the level of innovation in the crypto space.

— Peter Renton (@LendAcademy) November 28, 2020 “Bitcoin Is Not A Payments Solution”

Speaking about his position on Ripple’s value adjacent to bitcoin, Birla stated that bitcoin is not in fact competing against Ripple. Bitcoin is not optimised for speed and scale like Ripplenet and XRP.

have

His position mirrors that of Ripple founder Brad Garlinghouse. Nov 20, Garrlinghouse said that bitcoin and XRP have completely different functions, and XRP possesses utility that bitcoin does not.

As a BTC holder, I want it to succeed & believe in its use case (store of value), same as I believe in XRP’s distinct use case (payments). This also means being aware of potential weaknesses (like mining control in China) for future progress. These two are NOT mutually exclusive. https://t.co/lnP8HVfKLk

— Brad Garlinghouse (@bgarlinghouse) November 20, 2020 Bitcoin maximalism is out, XRP and DeFi are in

To illlustrate his point about XRP doing things that bitcoin is not optimised for, Birla remarked on how XRP disrupts SWIFT. The SWIFT model of global payments relies heavily on relationships and pre-positioning of money. XRP removes the need for at least $1 trillion worth of float in the global financial system.

In his opinion, the era of bitcoin being the only crypto asset with demonstrably unique utility is over. He said:

“I think that the days when folks believed that there would only be Bitcoin, I think, are over. I think it’s clear that there’s gonna be a lot of digital assets and there’s gonna be a lot more traditional assets that are gonna be tokenized as digital assets, which is exciting.”

In his opinion, venture capital did not display as much interest in the space during the recent rally as in 2017. Birla said, though, that he “couldn’t be happier” with the innovation in the space. At the tip of that innovation is the possibility of Ripplenet making Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC) interoperable.

This, along with Ripple’s On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) solution he said, would significantly improve the efficiency of global payments.
