Really?! so why this pop up today? is it real or not?:dahell:
I covered this here already. Linea uses Ethereum network. That alone won't work. Secondly, they were just testing the idea. Thirdly, Linea doesn't have the ODL that XRP has.

I literally just posted the code connecting Ripplnet to swift.

Do not worry.

XRP is the new eSDR and stablecoin (along with XLM) chosen bh the IMF.

I can only assume Linea is a at best a last minute failed attempt to stay relevant or at worst a distraction.

Does SWIFT's adoption of LINEA threaten Ripple and XRP?

Short answer: No.

Here is why.

Network Effect Gives XRP an Edge



A major concern among XRP investors is whether SWIFT or other companies could copy XRP’s code to create their own blockchain solutions. Garlinghouse explained that simply copying the XRP Ledger does not replicate Ripple’s network effect.



For over 13 years, Ripple has onboarded central banks, financial institutions, and other users onto the XRP Ledger. This adoption creates a network that competitors cannot easily replicate.



He added that major financial players like JP Morgan have also chosen Ethereum for smart contracts and blockchain products, not because XRP’s code is inferior, but because widespread adoption and infrastructure matter more than the technology itself.



The CEO’s message to shareholders was clear: Ripple is confident in the XRP Ledger’s future and believes competitors cannot match the ecosystem Ripple has built.

Bitcoin cannot be anything other than a store of value now. It sure as hell isn't a medium of exchange in 2025 and onwards. It can only process 7 Transactions per second (TPS). And save your breath on the lightning network. It is a unrealiable second layer. You cannot run the world financial system on something so slow. This isn't just a matter of opinion.

louder for those in the back

As much as I enjoy all content regarding crypto. The disingenuous nature of labeling BTC as a viable medium of exchange is laughable
