Crypto analyst Brett (@Brett_Crypto_X) recently shared insights from David Schwartz, Chief Technology Officer of Ripple, regarding the potential impact of a higher XRP price on transaction efficiency. Schwartz’s explanation highlighted that as the price of XRP increases, fewer units of the digital asset are needed to facilitate large-value transactions. He provided an illustrative example: if XRP were valued at $1, a $1 billion transaction would require 1 billion XRP. However, with a price increase to $10, this same transaction could only require 100 million XRP. This calculation demonstrates how higher prices lead to greater efficiency as less XRP is required for transactions. Schwartz’s explanation sparked discussion within the XRP community about the potential price trajectory and implications for the broader financial ecosystem. While some users see this as a strong argument for long-term XRP value appreciation, others are skeptical about its impact on price due to factors like high token velocity within Ripple’s network.
