为什么Ripple的大量XRP持有是战略优势，而不是缺陷

XRP社区研究员安德森（Anderson）认为，Ripple的大量XRP藏匿处是一个战略优势，而不是缺陷。

A fresh perspective on Ripple’s massive XRP holdings has brought back discussions within the crypto community.

对Ripple庞大的XRP控股的新看法使加密货币社区中的讨论恢复了讨论。

XRP community researcher Anderson argues that Ripple’s large stash of XRP is a strategic advantage, not a flaw. He stated that Ripple’s holdings align its financial interests with XRP’s long-term adoption and value growth.

XRP社区研究员安德森（Anderson）认为，Ripple的大量XRP藏匿处是一个战略优势，而不是缺陷。他说，Ripple的持股与XRP的长期采用和价值增长保持一致。

According to Anderson, if Ripple had little to no XRP, it would have less financial motivation to prioritize building out the XRP Ledger (XRPL) ecosystem over focusing on other blockchain projects.

根据安德森的说法，如果Ripple几乎没有XRP，那么优先考虑将XRP Ledger（XRPL）生态系统优先考虑而不是专注于其他区块链项目将具有更少的财务动机。

However, having a significant volume of XRP gives the company a strong incentive to put a priority on completing this task.

但是，拥有大量的XRP使该公司有很大的动力来优先完成此任务。

“Those with significant holdings of a particular coin are often the most likely to be interested in seeing it succeed. For example, we see this with Michael Saylor's strong advocacy for Bitcoin and the early contributors to Ethereum, who invested during the token sale and contributed their vision to shape the project's future,” explained Anderson.

“那些拥有特定硬币持有大量持有的人通常最有可能看到它成功的人。例如，我们看到了迈克尔·塞勒（Michael Saylor）对比特币的强烈倡导以及以太坊的早期贡献者，他们在代币销售期间进行了投资，并为塑造项目的未来做出了贡献，” Anderson解释说。”

To further his point, the researcher shared a video featuring Miguel Vias, Ripple’s former Head of XRP Markets. Vias was responsible for building XRP’s market infrastructure and liquidity during his tenure. His comments highlight how Ripple’s XRP reserves strengthen the market and support adoption.

更重要的是，研究人员分享了一段视频，其中包括Ripple前XRP市场负责人Miguel Vias。 VIA在任职期间负责建立XRP的市场基础设施和流动性。他的评论强调了Ripple的XRP保留如何加强市场并支持采用。

Key points from Vias include the fact that Ripple can lend XRP to professional market makers at attractive rates, enhancing liquidity. Vias stressed that this is a difficult feat to achieve with Bitcoin.

VIA的要点包括以下事实：Ripple可以以有吸引力的速度向专业做市商提供XRP，从而提高流动性。 Vias强调，比特币很难实现这一目标。

Additionally, in less-liquid cross-border payment corridors using Ripple Payments, the company can temporarily cover cost gaps, encouraging usage until those corridors become self-sustaining.

此外，在使用波纹付款的较少流动性跨境支付走廊中，公司可以暂时弥补成本差距，鼓励使用这些走廊自我维持。

Vias also noted that liquidity drives both utility and price. He explained that the more liquidity there is, the more utility XRP has – and, in theory, the more valuable it becomes over time.

VIA还指出，流动性驱动了公用事业和价格。他解释说，流动性越多，XRP的实用性越多，并且从理论上讲，随着时间的流逝，它变得越有价值。

This approach positions Ripple as a long-term ecosystem builder. Rather than selling XRP for short-term gains, the company is using its balance sheet to set the foundation for adoption in the global payments infrastructure.

这种方法将波纹定位为长期生态系统构建器。该公司没有出售XRP以供短期收益出售，而是利用其资产负债表为全球付款基础设施的收养奠定了基础。

While skeptics often cite the risk of centralization with Ripple’s large XRP holdings, proponents like Anderson believe those holdings may be critical for accelerating XRP’s utility and eventual valuation.

尽管持怀疑态度的人通常会引用Ripple的大型XRP持有的中央集权风险，但像安德森这样的支持者认为，这些持股对于加速XRP的实用性和最终估值可能至关重要。

As of the end of 2024, Ripple held 42.51 billion XRP, with 4.48 billion tokens in spendable balances and 38 billion in escrow. However, the most recent data from Ripple’s API shows the company now holds 36.53 billion tokens in escrow and 4.906 billion in spendable wallets. This brings its total XRP war chest to 41.43 billion, worth $104.83 billion today.

截至2024年底，Ripple持有4251亿XRP，具有44.8亿个代币的支出余额和380亿个托管的代币。但是，Ripple的API的最新数据显示，该公司现在在托管中拥有365.3亿个令牌和490.6亿美元的可支出钱包。这将其XRP战争箱的总数达到414.3亿，价值1008.3亿美元。

With this massive financial position, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse recently disclosed that the company’s strategy includes pursuing acquisitions of financial institutions that could further enhance its crypto-based payment solutions. The most recent — and most expensive — was its April acquisition of prime broker Hidden Road.

凭借这一巨大的财务状况，Ripple首席执行官Brad Garlinghouse最近透露，该公司的战略包括追求对金融机构的收购，这些机构可以进一步增强其基于加密货币的支付解决方案。最近也是最昂贵的是它四月收购Prime Broker Hidden Road。

Pundits believe Hidden Road’s integration into the XRP ecosystem could lead to trillions of dollars in inflows.

专家认为，隐藏的道路融入XRP生态系统可能会导致数万亿美元的流入。
