New Research Paper: Why Ripple Will Never Abandon XRP

Crypto researcher SMQKE has shared excerpts from an academic publication to support the argument that XRP will remain integral to Ripple Labs’ operation.

In a post accompanying a research paper published by Atlantis Press, SMQKE reveals passages that describe XRP as a structural component of the company’s payment ecosystem.

The highlighted sections come from a paper in Advances in Economics, Business and Management Research, in which the authors analyze the relationship between Ripple’s payment network and XRP. According to the excerpt, the system depends significantly on the digital asset as a medium within the company’s cross-border payment infrastructure.

SMQKE presented the document to argue that the idea that Ripple could abandon XRP conflicts with existing documentation. The researcher urged readers to review the highlighted passages carefully, stating that the material shows how XRP is positioned within the broader payment architecture.

Academic Paper Describes XRP as a Core Medium for RippleNet

One of the passages cited in the post states that “because RippleNet depends much on XRP, the XRP will coexist with Ripple Labs.” The paper adds that as long as Ripple’s payment services remain in the cross-border payments sector, XRP will be established as a medium for transactions within the network.

The research also states that the company intends to expand the role of XRP. According to the text highlighted by SMQKE, the authors note that Ripple aims to push XRP “to a larger platform in this day and age and play a greater role.” The same section explains that Ripple continues to use XRP within its own network while working to boost global usage.

The study further describes XRP as a potential “neutral bridge” between currencies. In the context of international payments, this concept refers to the use of a digital asset to facilitate the transfer of value between different fiat currencies.

The document also references the growth of Ripple’s ecosystem and its relationships with financial institutions. It notes that major banks such as Bank of America and Santander have been associated with the broader Ripple network infrastructure.

Community Responses Emphasize Structural Relationship

Several members of the crypto community backed SMQKE’s argument. A commenter identified as XRP Brasil wrote that XRP should not be viewed as a side project that could easily be removed from the company’s ecosystem. According to the comment, XRP is a structural component of the business model. This implies that the growth of Ripple’s payment services would naturally increase the use of the digital asset.

Another community member, DooriDoori, argued that the convergence of digital finance and traditional finance is accelerating. The commenter stated that attempting to separate the company from the asset demonstrates a misunderstanding of how the infrastructure operates.

SMQKE concluded the post by reiterating that the academic material provides documented evidence supporting the claim that XRP remains closely integrated with Ripple’s payment network and long-term strategy.
