David Schwartz, former CTO of Ripple and an original architect of XRP Ledger, addressed accusations that he is responsible for XRP's price decline. He admitted his influence on XRP's price is minimal but not zero, amidst a year-long 50% drop in XRP's value. Schwartz also criticized hostile behavior from some community members on social media, stating he blocks users who disrupt discussions regardless of their stance. Although he stepped down from daily duties in 2025, Schwartz remains on Ripple's board and holds the honorary CTO Emeritus title, continuing to engage with the team regularly.
