A recent proposal by Evernode co-founder Scott Chamberlain to introduce Hooks and a new token called Codii to extend programmability on the XRP Ledger (XRPL) has sparked active discussion and debate.
Introducing Hooks and the Codii Token
Scott Chamberlain recently proposed introducing a system to bring programmability to the XRP Ledger (XRPL), including adding Hooks and a new token called Codii. The aim is to simplify the execution of these Hooks by making use of the Codii token, which will be minted by locking up XRP and burned during Hook executions. XRP will continue to handle standard transaction fees.
Reaction from Ripple CTO
Ripple's Chief Technology Officer, David Schwartz, expressed doubts about the need for the Codii token, pointing out the increased complexity without clear benefits. Schwartz is also concerned about potential increases in network transaction fees due to higher resource demands.
Potential Network Impacts
One of the major questions raised by the proposal is the potential increase in transaction fees across the network. This could result from the increased demand for resources to handle Hook operations. Questions remain about the potential benefits and necessity of introducing new functionalities and tokens to the XRPL ecosystem.
The proposal by Evernode to introduce Hooks and the Codii token to extend programmability on the XRPL has generated significant debate. While some see potential improvements, others are concerned about the complexity and possible additional fees.
