David Schwartz, Ripple’s former chief technology officer and an original XRP Ledger architect, admitted to having a “very little” influence on XRP’s price in response to accusations from the community. The token lost approximately 50% of its value over the past year despite several temporary spikes. Schwartz said he now blocks users on X who hijack unrelated discussions to accuse him of fraud or criticize his work, while accepting well-argued criticism. He stepped down from his day-to-day duties at the end of 2025 but remains on Ripple’s board of directors, holds the title of CTO Emeritus and meets with his former team twice a month.
