Ripple CTO David Schwartz介绍了XRPL上的KYC执法和节点操作

随着加密货币市场的大量价格下跌，Ripple CTO David Schwartz与Crypto记者Metaman在X（以前是Twitter）的讨论中，以解决KYC执法对区块链网络中节点操作的影响，尤其是在XRP Ledger（XRPL）内。

If crypto is known for anything, it’s its community. Members of the industry are often engaged in interesting discussion on the metaverse, and one topic that has been coming up a lot is KYC.

如果加密以任何事物而闻名，那就是它的社区。该行业的成员经常就Metaverse进行有趣的讨论，而KYC的一个主题是很多话题。

As the crypto market continues to navigate substantial price drops, Ripple CTO David Schwartz joined a discussion with crypto journalist MetaMan on X (formerly Twitter) to address the effect of KYC enforcement on node operators in blockchain networks, especially within the XRP Ledger (XRPL).

随着加密货币市场继续导航大幅下跌，Ripple CTO David Schwartz加入了与加密新闻记者Metaman在X（以前是Twitter）上的讨论，以解决KYC执法对区块链网络中的节点操作员的影响，尤其是在XRP Ledger（XRPL）内部（XRPL）内部的效果。 。

After MetaMan asked a fundamental question about "what does decentralization mean," Schwartz provided insights into the intricacies of blockchain governance and varied perspectives on this crucial aspect of Web3 technologies.

在Metaman问了一个关于“权力下放是什么意思”的基本问题之后，Schwartz提供了对区块链治理的重要性以及对Web3技术这一至关重要方面的各种观点的见解。

The conversation began with MetaMan raising a key question regarding the implications of KYC mandates for node operators and the broader concept of decentralization.

对话始于Metaman提出了一个关键问题，该问题是关于KYC授权对节点运营商的含义以及更广泛的权力下放概念的关键问题。

“If you have to KYC to run a Blockchain node, is that really decentralization?” asked MetaMan.

“如果您必须KYC运行一个区块链节点，那真的是权力下放吗？”梅曼问。

In response, Schwartz inquired about the nature of such a KYC mandate and how it would be enforced.

作为回应，施瓦茨询问了这种KYC授权的性质以及如何执行它。

“Is it a legal license for the node software, which would be a huge amount of centralization, or would participants apply the rules in a decentralized way?”

“这是节点软件的法定许可，这将是大量的集中化，还是参与者会以分散的方式应用规则？”

If it was a legal requirement due to licensing, then IMO that would be a huge amount of centralization. If the requirement was adopted and enforced in a decentralized way, then I'd have to look more closely at exactly what the requirements and implementation are.

如果这是由于许可而导致的法律要求，那么IMO将是大量集中化。如果以分散的方式采用和执行了要求，那么我必须更仔细地查看要求和实施是什么。

Bitcoin SV vs. XRPL

Expanding on the topic of Bitcoin SV (BSV), Schwartz mentioned that "a specific organization" holds the legal claim over the software, thus dictating who can use it and ultimately join the network.

Schwartz在扩展比特币SV（BSV）的主题时提到，“一个特定的组织”对该软件持有法律上的主张，从而决定谁可以使用它并最终加入网络。

However, Schwartz noted that XRPL node software is open-source and isn't owned by any single entity. This factor contributes to XRPL being more decentralized than BSV, as participants in the XRPL governance system can choose to fork the network if they disagree with the rules.

但是，Schwartz指出，XRPL节点软件是开源的，并且不是任何一个实体都拥有的。这个因素有助于XRPL比BSV更加分散，因为XRPL治理系统的参与者如果不同意规则，可以选择分叉网络。

“It is not a new idea that safety is more important than progress when there is no way to pay for the damage caused by an error,” said Schwartz.

Schwartz说：“当无法支付错误造成的损害时，安全性比进度更重要，这并不是一个新想法。”

Those thoughts are especially relevant in cases where forward progress might be risky. For example, XRPL's consensus algorithm is designed to halt in such cases, and it's capable of remaining stalled for an indefinite period.

在前进进展可能有风险的情况下，这些想法尤其重要。例如，XRPL的共识算法旨在在这种情况下停止，并且能够在不确定的时期内停滞不前。

This commitment to safety remains essential, given the large amounts of value that are transacted on XRPL.

考虑到XRPL上的大量价值，对安全性的承诺仍然至关重要。
