Debate on the Origins of XRP Leaves Many Astonished

A member of the crypto community engaged in a Twitter debate with a Ripple representative about the creation of XRP. The debate raised questions about the origins and development of XRP, including allegations of theft and agreements with original developers.

Ripple's CTO, David Schwartz, responded to the claims by dismissing the argument and drawing a parallel with the creation of Bitcoin Cash. Schwartz also clarified the meaning behind the original abbreviation "XNS," revealing that "X" represents currencies not issued by any country and "NS" stands for "New coins."
