Ripple is the catchall name for the cryptocurrency platform, the transactional protocol for which is actually XRP, in the same fashion as Ethereum is the name for the platform that facilitates trades in Ether. Like other cryptocurrencies, Ripple is built atop the idea of a distributed ledger network which requires various parties to participate in validating transactions, rather than any singular centralized authority. That facilitates transactions all over the world, and transfer fees are far cheaper than the likes of bitcoin. Unlike other cryptocurrencies, XRP transfers are effectively immediate, requiring no typical confirmation time.  Ripple was originally founded by a single company, Ripple Labs, and continues to be backed by it, rather than the larger network of developers that continue bitcoin’s development. It also doesn’t have a fluctuating amount of its currency in existence. Where bitcoin has a continually growing pool with an eventual maximum, and Ethereum theoretically has no limit, Ripple was created with all of its 100 billion XRP tokens right out of the gate. That number is maintained with no mining and most of the tokens are owned and held by Ripple Labs itself — around 60 billion at the latest count.  Even at the recently reduced value of around half a dollar per XRP, that means Ripple Labs is currently sitting on around $20 billion worth of the cryptocurrency (note: Ripple’s price crashed hard recently, and may be worth far less than $60 billion by time you read this). It holds 55 billion XRP in an escrow account, which allows it to sell up to a billion per month if it so chooses in order to fund new projects and acquisitions. Selling such an amount would likely have a drastic effect on the cryptocurrency’s value, and isn’t something Ripple Labs plans to do anytime soon.  In actuality, Ripple Labs is looking to leverage the technology behind XRP to allow for faster banking transactions around the world. While Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are built on the idea of separating financial transactions from the financial organizations of traditional currencies, Ripple is almost the opposite in every sense.  XRP by Ripple price can be found on this page alongside the market capitalization and additional stats.

Despite repeated attempts to break higher, especially amid strong narrative support around smart contracts,&nbsp;decentralized finance (DeFi), and tokenization, ETH has still been range-bound for a long period.

Bernie Sanders said on X that data centers are "powering the unregulated sprint to develop and deploy AI," and he is pushing to pause it.&nbsp;Sanders expressed mistrust toward billionaires and tech executives such as Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, and Bill Gates, whom he believes are utilizing AI at the expense of ordinary consumers. Sander additionally raised concern about youth alienation as a result of their reliance on AI for emotional support. He advocated for a data center moratorium to halt AI research and ensure democratic control over its advantages and risks.In a response&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/VitalikButerin/status/2001238398149779677?s=20">on X</a>, Buterin argued that rather than slowing AI development now, policymakers and engineers should focus on building emergency controls - a 'pause button' - that could significantly reduce computing power by 90% to 99% if future risks become more acute.<figure class="image"><a class="st-link-external" href="https://x.com/VitalikButerin/status/2001238398149779677" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"><img style="aspect-ratio:938/1518;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_12_17_at_6_27_14_AM_png_12901e8c1e.webp" alt="Screenshot 2025-12-17 at 6.27.14 AM.png" width="938" height="1518"></a><figcaption>Vitalik Buterin respoonse to Bernie Sander's AI proposal.
