XRP反對者重新點燃有關令牌在區塊鏈生態系統中的位置的辯論

著名行業人物最近的一系列帖子重新激發了有關XRP在區塊鏈生態系統中的地位的辯論。

Over the past two weeks, XRP naysayers have unleashed a barrage of critiques against the token's contribution to the crypto industry, particularly in light of its inclusion in President Donald Trump's proposed US federal crypto stockpile. Some argue that XRP, being a centralized token, does not qualify as a genuine cryptocurrency.

在過去的兩個星期中，XRP反對者對代幣對加密貨幣行業的貢獻進行了一系列批評，尤其是考慮到唐納德·特朗普總統提議的美國聯邦加密貨幣庫存。有人認為，XRP是一個集中的代幣，並不是真正的加密貨幣。

A series of recent posts by prominent industry figures have reignited debates about XRP's place in the blockchain ecosystem. On January 24, Pierre Rochard, VP of Research at Bitcoin mining company Riot Platforms, shared a screenshot of a thread originally posted in 2020 by crypto commentator Nic Carter, who made scathing remarks about Ripple's digital asset.

著名行業人物最近的一系列帖子重新激發了有關XRP在區塊鏈生態系統中的地位的辯論。 1月24日，比特幣礦業公司Riot Platforms研究副總裁Pierre Rochard分享了Crypto評論員Nic Nic Carter於2020年發布的線程的屏幕截圖，他對Ripple的數字資產發表了嚴厲的評論。

Carter's posts labeled XRP as "neither a cryptocurrency nor a viable competitor to Bitcoin," arguing it lacks meaningful decentralization or utility.

卡特（Carter）的帖子將XRP標記為“既不是加密貨幣，也不是比特幣的可行競爭對手”，認為它缺乏有意義的權力下放或實用性。

“There’s absolutely no comparing XRP with Bitcoin,” Carter wrote. “It’s not ‘cheaper’ than Bitcoin or more energy-efficient because it's not remotely in the same category. The same way you can't compare an Excel doc on my laptop with Bitcoin.”

卡特寫道：“絕對沒有比比特幣進行比較。” “它不是比比特幣或更節能的'便宜'，因為它在同一類別中並不遙不可及。您無法將筆記本電腦上的Excel Doc與比特幣進行比較的方式。”

XRP use cases questioned

XRP用例質疑

In his December 2020 thread, Carter criticized XRP's purported "centralized nature," describing it as "literally a token on a database maintained by a single entity," which, in the context, represented Ripple Labs.

卡特在2020年12月的主題中批評了XRP所謂的“集中性質”，將其描述為“在一個由單個實體維護的數據庫上的名字”中，在上下文中代表了Ripple Labs。

He went so far as to liken XRP to "an IOU on the Starbucks app," arguing that the token is not fully built on a decentralization principle, which undermines its legitimacy as a crypto.

他甚至將XRP比喻為“星巴克應用程序上的一個IOU”，認為代幣並未完全建立在權力下放原則上，這破壞了其作為加密貨幣的合法性。

Carter also targeted XRP's primary use case as a bridge currency for cross-border remittances. He claimed this purpose has been rendered obsolete by the adoption of stablecoins, which are less volatile and more practical for such transactions.

卡特還將XRP的主要用例作為跨境匯款的橋樑貨幣。他聲稱，通過採用Stablecoins，這一目的已經過時了，這對此類交易較少，更實用。

“No one wants to use a volatile, illiquid, thinly traded asset as a bridge currency," Carter stated. "The only use case is lowering the cost of capital for Ripple Labs."

卡特說：“沒有人願意將波動性，流動性不足，交易的資產用作橋樑貨幣。唯一的用例是降低了Ripple Labs的資本成本。”

The crypto critic, who is also against the idea of creating a national strategic Bitcoin reserve, accused Ripple of using XRP to inflate its value artificially, alleging that the company engaged in partnerships designed to excite retail investors and drive up the token's price.

加密評論家也反對建立國家戰略比特幣儲備的想法，他指控波紋使用XRP人​​為地誇大其價值，並聲稱該公司與旨在激發零售投資者的合作夥伴關係並提高了代幣的價格。

“The SEC should see through the smokescreen and perceive XRP for what it is—a shallow fraud.”

“ SEC應該透過煙幕，並感知XRP，這是一個淺薄的欺詐行為。”

Bitcoin advocates double down on XRP criticism

比特幣倡導者對XRP批評加倍

Several users on X agreed with Rochard's sentiments, with some echoing Carter's claims of XRP being a "fraudulent" asset meant to fatten Ripple Labs' pockets.

X上的幾個用戶同意Rochard的觀點，其中一些迴盪的Carter聲稱XRP是一種“欺詐性”資產，旨在使Ripple Labs的口袋fatter。

One user shared a screenshot of an explainer that showed the tokenomics of XRP. The screenshot alleges that Ripple Labs withheld 80% of XRP's total supply when it launched in 2013. Retailers could only access the withheld supply through the Bitstamp crypto exchange from January 2017.

一個用戶共享了一個解釋器的屏幕截圖，該屏幕截圖顯示了XRP的令牌。屏幕截圖聲稱，Ripple Labs於2013年推出XRP的80％。零售商只能從2017年1月開始通過Bitstamp Crypto Exchange訪問抗扣除供應。

They apparently employ over 1k people…?! sus

他們顯然僱用了超過1k的人……？ sus

I 'member this… The initial distribution was 80/20 in June 2012 and it was impossible to get any as a 'retailer' until 5 years later (Bitstamp, January 2017).

我的成員……最初的分銷是2012年6月的80/20，直到5年後，就不可能成為“零售商”（Bitstamp，2017年1月）。

In a quoted response to Rochard's post, another Bitcoin advocate disclosed some pointers from Saifedean Ammous's The Bitcoin Standard book. The post explained how the author discussed the fundamental differences between Bitcoin and XRP in chapters, 7, 8, and 9.

在對羅查德（Rochard）帖子的引用回應中，另一位比特幣倡導者透露了賽菲德·普魯姆斯（Saifedean Ammous）的《比特幣標準書》中的一些指示。該帖子解釋了作者如何在第7、8和9章中討論比特幣和XRP之間的基本差異。

In Chapter 7, Ammous explained how Bitcoin's model makes the network independent, decentralized, and immutable. Analysts pointed out that XRP fails to achieve this due to Ripple Labs' control over its supply.

在第7章中，Ammous解釋了比特幣模型如何使網絡獨立，分散和不變。分析師指出，由於波紋實驗室對其供應的控制，XRP無法實現這一目標。

The next chapter further critiques fiat systems and centralized financial models. Critics assert the system is similar to XRP's model and claim the token is an extension of the very structures BTC was designed to disrupt.

下一章進一步批評菲亞特系統和集中財務模型。評論家斷言該系統與XRP的模型相似，聲稱令牌是BTC旨在破壞的結構的擴展。

Finally, chapter 9 focuses on Bitcoin's proof-of-work mechanism, which ensures decentralization and censorship resistance. XRP critics insist XRP relies on centralized validators, which Ripple Labs could allegedly take advantage of to manipulate price.

最後，第9章的重點是比特幣的工作證明機制，該機制可確保權力下放和審查制度。 XRP批評家堅持認為XRP依靠集中式驗證者，據稱，Ripple Labs可以利用該驗證器來操縱價格。
