Ripple 将智能合约功能引入 XRP Ledger 主网，瞄准开发人员

区块链支付公司 Ripple 宣布计划将智能合约功能引入 XRP Ledger 主网，旨在增强可编程性并使开发人员能够创建定制应用程序。

Blockchain payments firm Ripple has announced plans to introduce smart contract capabilities to the XRP Ledger mainnet, aiming to enhance programmability and enable developers to create customized applications.

区块链支付公司 Ripple 宣布计划将智能合约功能引入 XRP Ledger 主网，旨在增强可编程性并使开发人员能够创建定制应用程序。

In a statement on September 2, Ripple disclosed its intention to bring smart contracts to the XRP Ledger mainnet, thereby expanding its layer-1 functionality and attracting a broader developer base. Launched in 2012, the XRP Ledger has traditionally been used by banks and financial institutions for cross-border payments.

在 9 月 2 日的一份声明中，Ripple 透露了其将智能合约引入 XRP Ledger 主网的意图，从而扩展其第一层功能并吸引更广泛的开发者群体。 XRP Ledger 于 2012 年推出，传统上被银行和金融机构用于跨境支付。

Smart contracts, which are self-executing agreements with terms directly written into code, will be built upon existing standards such as Hooks. This new functionality on the XRP Ledger is expected to increase the platform’s flexibility, enabling developers to leverage foundational components like escrows, NFTs, trust lines, payment channels, and decentralized exchange features to create innovative decentralized applications.

智能合约是一种自动执行的协议，其条款直接写入代码中，将建立在 Hooks 等现有标准的基础上。 XRP Ledger 上的这一新功能预计将提高平台的灵活性，使开发人员能够利用托管、NFT、信任线、支付渠道和去中心化交易功能等基础组件来创建创新的去中心化应用程序。

The announcement also highlighted that developers would be able to deploy smart contracts without a formal amendment process or the need for approval. Nevertheless, an XLS standard will be implemented to ensure smart contracts are secure, efficient, and easy to deploy.

该公告还强调，开发人员将能够部署智能合约，而无需正式的修改过程或无需批准。尽管如此，XLS 标准将被实施，以确保智能合约安全、高效且易于部署。

Brad Garlinghouse, CEO of Ripple, emphasized the significance of this development, noting that the programmability of the XRP Ledger is “something the XRP community has rightly been asking for.”

Ripple 首席执行官 Brad Garlinghouse 强调了这一发展的重要性，并指出 XRP Ledger 的可编程性是“XRP 社区一直以来所要求的”。

XRPL Eyes EVM Support with Sidechains

XRPL 通过侧链支持 EVM

In addition to smart contract integration, Ripple is set to launch the XRPL EVM Sidechain early next year in collaboration with blockchain infrastructure provider Peersyst. This sidechain will allow developers to utilize Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) tools and programming languages, broadening the range of applications that can be built on the XRP Ledger.

除了智能合约集成之外，Ripple 还将于明年初与区块链基础设施提供商 Peersyst 合作推出 XRPL EVM 侧链。该侧链将允许开发人员利用以太坊虚拟机（EVM）工具和编程语言，扩大可在 XRP Ledger 上构建的应用程序范围。

As previously reported, the XRPL EVM will use Axelar’s cross-chain bridge to facilitate transactions between the XRPL EVM Sidechain, the XRP Ledger, and over 55 other blockchains through wrapped XRP (eXRP), which will also serve as the gas token for the sidechain.

正如之前报道的，XRPL EVM 将使用 Axelar 的跨链桥，通过包装的 XRP (eXRP) 促进 XRPL EVM 侧链、XRP Ledger 和超过 55 个其他区块链之间的交易，这也将作为侧链的 Gas 代币。

This move comes on the heels of Ripple’s partnership with Cosmos-based evmOS, another EVM-compatible XRPL sidechain, and the recent introduction of Ripple USD (RLUSD), a fiat-pegged stablecoin. RLUSD, which began beta testing on both the XRP Ledger and Ethereum mainnet earlier this year, aims to maintain a 1:1 value with the US dollar, backed by a reserve of cash and cash equivalents, potentially enhancing XRPL’s liquidity.

在此之前，Ripple 与基于 Cosmos 的 evmOS（另一个与 EVM 兼容的 XRPL 侧链）合作，以及最近推出了与法定货币挂钩的稳定币 Ripple USD (RLUSD)。 RLUSD 今年早些时候开始在 XRP Ledger 和以太坊主网上进行 Beta 测试，目标是在现金和现金等价物储备的支持下，与美元保持 1:1 的价值，从而有可能增强 XRPL 的流动性。
