About this briefing
Video description
XRP does not need to sit inside every payment, every stablecoin transfer, or every tokenized-asset trade to matter. The more important question is whether the XRP Ledger can use XRP as an efficient routing asset when direct markets become too shallow, too fragmented, or too expensive.
This episode breaks down the liquidity problem created as tokenized assets multiply, why eight assets can create twenty-eight direct trading pairs, how XRP Ledger routing mechanics can connect markets more efficiently, and what still has to happen before that architecture matters at institutional scale.
