Throughout the years there has been a lot of clashing, muddy and misaligning info about the roles and differences between the likes of OVL (Overledger), ILP (InterLedger), XRPL, SWIFT, but after 6 yrs I think I finally have clarity on the categorising. Please keep in mind, this is my own speculation (also first post here). Not incl. all relevant techs, it goes like this (if I'm wrong, pls do correct me): SWIFT - interbank msging/payments and traditional-settlement Sys. (will) utilise CCIP (via LINK) - to extend clients to dlt/blockchain for msging/payments. OVL - All DLT/Blockchain + Legacy Sys plug-n-play or bridge - data/msging/payments/mDAPPs-building OS. QNT - gas/transaction token for OVL. ILP - IoV or open-source protocol/pipelines for msging of value/payments interoperable with, or between, any ledgers (e.g. leverage external ledgers like the XRPL to instantly settle an on-chain, or on-ledger, or even cross-ledger, payment via XRP). XRPL - neutral/public/open-source consensus settlement & tokenisation layer/DEX. XRP - agnostic and liquid cheap/public/instant/neutral native settlement asset/currency. RippleNet (xCurrent) - Private Interbank & PSP instant msging/payments Sys by Ripple, or RTGS and direct competition to SWIFT. ODL (xRapid) - leverages XRP for instant settlement. Conclusions: Best to my knowledge, OVL seems to be on another planet in terms of possibilities/capabilities in the msging, smart-contracts and dAPPs department. It does seem to me that there is a sort of 'battle of the institutional payment/msging/data systems' that are/will be ongoing between: Systems/hubs built with OVL, SWIFT/LINK, RippleNet. SWIFTs leveraging of Chainlink via the CCIP is a (clinging-on-for-dear-life) direct competition to the likes of RippleNet and any payment systems possible with OVL. Additionally, It also seems to me that the best 'settlement mechanism', that makes the most sense for all these systems/ledgers (private/public) to be using (w/RippleNet already using), which really has no competition, is via XRP - made more accessible to any external/off-chain ledgers or private institutions (incl. those in an OVL and/or SWIFT/LINK Sys/environment), without the need for on-boarding onto RippleNet, and at global 'internet-like' scale, via payment msging through the open ILP. That is, unless you're an entity which is relying on a non-neutral, and probably biased and more illiquid (not to mention probably more expensive) asset or mechanism e.g. a particular CBDC or Gov-backed or dollar-pegged stablecoin (prone to a whole range of issues). Moreover, platforms like XinFin, Corda and Quorum will undoubtably all be involved in smart-contracts and institutional-grade trade-finance (XinFin being a hybrid network and combination of Eth/Quorum and Corda). Question I still have: Whilst there is a horde of evidence that the XRPL/XRP is being leveraged by Institutional OVL and Corda initiatives/arrangements/experiments, is there any clear evidence that SWIFT will possibly leverage the XRPL/XRP and if so will it be via Chainlink through the CCIP or via ILP? Apologies if this is too technical or hard to understand for anybody, contains errors, and for any grammar errors. -
hi, I was trying to move from Xpring-JS to ripple-lib but ripple-lib does not support payment pointer or payments id, what can i do or how can I make a payment using a payment pointer in xrp or an issued currency with ripple-lib? I know that in coil some how made that, but i don`t know how to make a payment using the xrpl and a payment pointer

The Ripple Dev Blog has moved. The new blog location has been inaugurated with a feature article about Interledger, and we plan to continue posting new blog articles at a higher rate than we previously have. *crosses fingers* Check out that Interledger article here: https://developers.ripple.com/blog/2019/interledger-checkin.html If you have any technical topics you'd like us to cover or other things you'd like to see from the Ripple Dev Blog, feel free to reply here and we'll do what we can to address them. (As usual, we cannot provide financial advice, forecast moon when the price of XRP, reveal confidential info about partners, comment on litigation, etc.) We can and are happy to talk about open source technology, the XRP Ledger's many features and potential uses, and provide insight into where Ripple's devs see fintech going in general over the next few years.

Edit: I don't believe Global ID was used, but was discussed. Wanted to clarify that but the title was getting lengthy. Found this video with all sorts of nuggets in it. Thank you @enej! 2:35 - The transaction 10:00 - Enej thinks Ripple will not be used for everyday transactions, but will be utilized primarily for settlement 13:25 - a REAL market maker, albeit a small one. They really do exist! 14:20 - Liquidity "chicken and egg" question 18:10 - MyGlobalID insight. I think I understood why this was such a big deal, but now I really get it. 19:50 - Gatehub investor mentioned. Was it "Greg Kit"? I can't figure it out because @enej encrypted it with his accent 23:25 - Enej humble-bragging about all the awesome stuff they're working on behind the scenes that we aren't aware of. Plenty of other goodies. Looking forward to hearing everyone's thoughts.

My history of Ripple continues through the years of 2014-2016; It covers the dramatic news stories you may have heard about, Ripple's steady progress in development, their pivot away from Codius, and the birth of Interledger. The controversial topics like XRP allocation and organization shake-ups are not ignored; read through it and provide your own perspective if you were around (in crypto land) during that time frame. Of course, extra points if you work (or previously worked) for Ripple! Hope you enjoy! Please leave any feedback below.

https://medium.com/@emschwartz/simplifying-interledger-the-graveyard-of-possible-protocol-features-b35bf67439be Very interesting read about ILP. I believe ILP will be absolutely key for FI to use whatever internal blockchain or token they wish (privacy reasons/competitive advantage/regulation), whilst simultaneously benefiting from xRPL. -
Hi All, Interledger seems to be a cheap, seamless and fully mature technological solution for sending money accross blockchains, accordint to what I have read about it in the press, on its website and from Ripple. As a result, I have recently been perplexed why interledger solutions that send money accross public blockchains are not more popular within the cryptocurrency community. In my research, I recently found 2 plug-ins on Github that claim to send money, presumably accross blockchains. This Ethereum interledger plug-in was created by Ripple's Evan Schwartz and this Bitcoin interledger plug-in was created by Ripple (according to this CoinDesk article) and was also contributed to by Evan Schwartz. Can someone explain to me how one would download or use these plug-ins to send money from Bitcoin to Ethereum? Or how they work logistically? How would you find a connector to help you execute a trade? I am not a developer and don't really know where to start looking at these pages. Any guidance would be much appreciated. I would also appreciate any thoughts on why solutions for sending money accross public blockchains using interledger are not more mature, when interledger seems to be a mature technology used by banks/ripple and lauded by the crypto press. After all, it seems like interledger should be able to function as an infinitely scalable and cheap decentralized crypto-currency exchange. Thanks!- 1 reply

Hi, As I understand it, interledger protocol is supposed to connect ledgers (whether blockchains or banks), allowing for the seamless transfer of value. I understand that many financial institutions are using interledger by adopting ripplenet. Still, I am confused why there does not seem to be any consumer facing applications that employ interledger. For example, why are there no applications that allow you to send money from the Ethereum ledger to the Bitcoin ledger nearly for free using the protocol? Or are there such applications I am simply not aware of? This is especially perplexing given that interledger is supposed to facilitate nearly free transfers between blockchains. In addition, the system is open source, public and readily available through API's. A second question: can you embed ILP payments into smart contracts? Can a smart contract hold dollars in escrow and promise to pay them out through the interledger? I haven't thought this through very carefully, but basically - is ILP smart contract enabled? Let me know if you have any thoughts on either of these items. Thank you!
