Ripple's ex-CTO says XRP transaction fees don't drive its price, amid holder frustration.

David Schwartz, former Ripple CTO, clarified that XRP's use for transaction fees is not a major factor influencing its price. He emphasized XRP's value comes from its unique features and its role in the XRP Ledger ecosystem, not just transaction fee usage. Despite XRP's price drop and holder frustration, Schwartz noted the token's value is tied to the ledger's success but admitted his influence on price is minimal. The XRP Ledger aims to be a fast, cheap payment system rather than a tool solely to boost XRP's price.
