21Shares says claims Ripple directly controls XRP and XRP Ledger are not true
21Shares said claims that Ripple directly controls XRP and the XRP Ledger are not true, citing the network’s validator structure. It said the default trusted validator list includes about 35 validators, with only 1 operated by Ripple, and more than 150 validators participate overall. Protocol changes require support from at least 80 percent of validators. 21Shares added that Ripple remains a key firm in the XRP ecosystem and holds billions of XRP in escrow.
