Ripple’s Bold Play: CTO Reveals Ethereum Sidechain Strategy to Lure Developers

Ripple's betting big on developer adoption—with an Ethereum-compatible sidechain as its golden ticket. Here's why it matters.

The Interoperability Gambit

CTO David Schwartz confirms the move: Ripple's building bridges to Ethereum's dev army. Smart contracts, DeFi tools, and a fresh playground for XRP maximalists.

Sidechain vs. Status Quo

No more 'choose your tribe'—Ripple's sidechain could let devs port Ethereum dApps with minimal fuss. Schwartz calls it 'the missing piece' for XRP's ecosystem growth.

Wall Street Rolls Eyes

Because nothing says 'institutional adoption' like chasing the same developers who turned 'dogecoin casino' into a $40B industry. (We kid—mostly.)

One thing's clear: Ripple's done watching from the sidelines. Game on.
