David Schwartz: The success of XRPL in the financial sector will inevitably drive the growth in demand and value for XRP.

David Schwartz, Ripple's Honorary Chief Technology Officer, stated that it's highly unlikely that XRPL's high success in financial applications would be accompanied by a lack of demand and value for XRP. XRPL's low fees and reliable performance attract financial activity, and demand for XRP increases as assets and transactions flow through the network. XRP's value stems from increased network usage, the need to pay network transaction fees in XRP, and its liquidity provision as a neutral asset without counterparties. Validator Vet added that XRPL's built-in decentralized exchange and the circulation of assets like RippleUSD enhance XRP's role, and XRP can act as a bridging currency through automatic bridging.
