In a Twitter thread today, Ripple chief technology officer David Schwartz opined that Flare Networks used the XRP community to gain notoriety and discarded them afterward.

The Ripple executive expressed this view as he poked holes at the perceived lack of incentives for holders to keep their airdropped FLR tokens for future rewards. Consequently, Schwartz now believes that the team only intended to give 15% of what it promised to the XRP community.
