Ripple 正在透過新的側鏈將與以太坊相容的智慧合約添加到 XRP 帳本中

這將增強其超越簡單交易的能力，以適應更複雜的應用程序，例如去中心化交易所和代幣發行。

Ripple is adding a new sidechain to the XRP Ledger that will support Ethereum-compatible smart contracts. This will expand the capabilities of the XRP Ledger beyond simple transactions to include more complex applications like decentralized exchanges and token issuance.

Ripple 正在為 XRP Ledger 添加新的側鏈，該側鏈將支援與以太坊相容的智慧合約。這將擴展 XRP Ledger 的功能，超越簡單的交易，包括更複雜的應用程序，例如去中心化交易所和代幣發行。

The development also includes the use of the Axelar network for cross-chain token transfers to promote interoperability and developer involvement. Wrapped XRP, or eXRP, will serve as the native currency on this sidechain.

該開發還包括使用 Axelar 網路進行跨鏈代幣傳輸，以促進互通性和開發人員參與。打包的 XRP（或 eXRP）將作為該側鏈上的原生貨幣。

In a move that is bound to garner mixed reactions from the XRP coin’s community, Ripple is set to introduce sidechain networks that will bring support for Ethereum-compatible smart contracts to the XRP Ledger.

Ripple 將推出側鏈網絡，為 XRP Ledger 帶來對以太坊兼容智能合約的支持，此舉勢必會引起 XRP 幣社區的不同反應。

The CEO addressed the varying reactions from members of the digital asset community to Ripple's announcement of another change in customization for the ‘builders, entrepreneurs and users’ in the X post by integrating smart contract capability into the XRP ledger.

這位執行長在X 貼文中談到了數位資產社群成員對Ripple 宣布的另一項客製化變化的不同反應，即透過將智慧合約功能整合到XRP 分類帳中來為「建構者、企業家和用戶」進行客製化。

This led to a discussion on the platform about whether Ripple is the only driving force in the XRP ecosystem and whether the community will have a say in the matter. Schwartz stated that Ripple's plan is to keep the XRP Ledger the same.

這引發了平台上關於Ripple是否是XRP生態系統的唯一推動力以及社區是否會在此事上擁有發言權的討論。 Schwartz 表示 Ripple 的計劃是保持 XRP Ledger 不變。

Smart contracts are programs that automate the processes needed in a blockchain transaction to enable functionality beyond simple transactions, like token issuance, trade processing, and the creation of decentralized exchanges and financial apps.

智能合約是自動化區塊鏈交易所需流程的程序，以實現簡單交易以外的功能，例如代幣發行、交易處理以及去中心化交易所和金融應用程式的創建。

“Progress towards smart contract functionality is already underway in the XRP Ledger ecosystem with the XRPL EVM sidechain,” Ripple said in a statement on Monday, adding:

Ripple 在周一的聲明中表示：「XRP Ledger 生態系統中的 XRPL EVM 側鏈已經在智能合約功能方面取得進展，」並補充道：

“This sidechain will add EVM compatibility to the XRP community, where developers can use the existing tools and coding languages to expand the appeal of the XRP Ledger to developers across the world.”

“該側鏈將為 XRP 社區添加 EVM 相容性，開發人員可以使用現有的工具和編碼語言來擴大 XRP Ledger 對世界各地開發人員的吸引力。”

The XRP Ledger is a public blockchain platform that uses XRP tokens to power financial transactions. In 022, testing of the smart contract deployment powered by Ethereum on the XRPL was already possible.

XRP Ledger 是一個公共區塊鏈平台，使用 XRP 代幣來支援金融交易。 022 年，在 XRPL 上測試以太坊支援的智慧合約部署已經成為可能。

The Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) is a tool that handles the execution of smart contracts on the Ethereum platform. A sidechain is an additional blockchain that is built alongside the main chain, in this case, the XRP ledger.

以太坊虛擬機器（EVM）是一個處理以太坊平台上智慧合約執行的工具。側鏈是與主鏈一起建立的附加區塊鏈，在本例中是 XRP 分類帳。

Enhancing the Network's Programmability

增強網路的可程式性

With the introduction of native smart contract capabilities on the XRP Ledger (currently in the research phase) and the upcoming debut of the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) sidechain (expected to go live in the next few months), Ripple is set to enhance the programmability of the blockchain network.

隨著 XRP Ledger 上原生智能合約功能的引入（目前處於研究階段）以及以太坊虛擬機（EVM）側鏈即將推出（預計在未來幾個月內上線），Ripple 將增強區塊鏈網路的可編程性。

According to Ripple CTO, instead of presenting a “fully baked” proposal to the crypto industry and the XRP community, Ripple has been transparent with its plans. The American fintech firm aims to remain transparent and inform its community and shareholders where it plans to allocate resources and has also outlined its priorities.

Ripple 技術長表示，Ripple 並未向加密貨幣產業和 XRP 社群提出「完全成熟」的提案，而是對其計畫保持透明。這家美國金融科技公司的目標是保持透明度，向社區和股東通報其計劃分配資源的情況，並概述了其優先事項。

Schwartz explained the abrupt shift in the company's goals, stating that Ripple initially thought that XRPL would be drastically changed by the main net's ability to be programmed. As a result, the business had to develop the EVM sidechain.

Schwartz 解釋了公司目標的突然轉變，表示 Ripple 最初認為 XRPL 將因主網的編程能力而發生巨大變化。因此，企業必須開發 EVM 側鏈。

However, after hearing from several people and receiving feedback from the crypto industry, Schwartz concluded that “programmability makes sense for Mainnet much earlier.

然而，在聽取了一些人的意見並收到了加密貨幣行業的反饋後，施瓦茨得出結論：「可編程性對於主網來說很早就有意義。
