Description of crypto hot XRP

To begin with, it is important to understand the difference between XRP, Ripple and RippleNet. At its core, Ripple runs on an open shared database, uses a consensus process, which allows exchanges, operated in a distributed process. The internal cryptocurrency of the Ripple network - $XRP.

What is the difference:

RippleNet The RippleNet payment platform - a real-time gross settlement system (RTGS) that aims to provide instant money transactions around the world.
XRP Ledger While RippleNet is under the control of a company, called Ripple, XRP Ledger is open source.

$XRP is a cryptocurrency, traded for the XRP Ledger, but network users don’t have to use $XRP. However, each Ripple account requires a reserve of 20 tokens, explained by the protection against spam. Ryan Fugger announced the idea of ​​the Ripple payment platform in 2004. This led to the idea of ​​a new system, designed by Jed McCaleb, which was designed and built by Arthur Britto and David Schwartz. In May 2011, they set about developing an electronic payment system, where transactions were confirmed by consensus of network participants, rather than mining, as in the network bitcoin, based on the blockchain.

How to buy a coin?

RippleNet is backed by the global $XRP community and Ripple is an active member. The XRP Ledger processes transactions approximately every 3-5 seconds, unlike proof-of-work mining like Bitcoin (BTC). You can buy $XRP on any exchange that offers digital currency. If you want to know where to buy coins, the best cryptocurrency exchanges to trade $XRP shares currently are:

  • Binance;
  • OKX;
  • FTX;
  • Huobi Global;
  • Bybit.

You can either store your tokens on an exchange where the exchange is responsible for keeping your asset safe, or you can store XRP in a cold or hot wallet. The Ripple protocol enables instant and direct exchange between two parties.
