Schwartz stated that Ripple has no such plan in response to a Youtube user who claims to release a cryptocurrency fixed in fiat currencies. In February, Ripple announced that there will be new improvements to be added to XRP Ledger. One of these innovations was said to be an update that allows fixed coins to be used on the XRP Ledger. This situation was interpreted in the crypto community so that Ripple would issue its own stablecoin. Fiat fixed cryptocurrencies boomed, especially after the collapse in the markets in March, and their cumulative values ​​have already exceeded $ 10 billion. Tether (USDT), the leading stablecoin, has recently surpassed the market value of XRP and became the third largest asset. Referring to this competition, Schwartz stated that these two cryptocurrencies have different uses and that the two cryptocurrencies are not correct to compare. Schwartz said he does not believe in the possibility that Tether, which is backed by a government-issued money and controlled by a central company, could be universal.
