A social-media proposal suggests increasing the XRP Ledger's standard transaction fee by 10 to 100 times, which would burn more XRP per transaction and raise costs for users. Ripple CTO Emeritus David Schwartz criticized using fee revenue as a performance metric, emphasizing that higher fees mean more cost burden on users rather than better blockchain efficiency. The ledger's base fee is set by trusted validators through a median vote, but no official vote or implementation plan has been made yet. The discussion remains informal on social media, highlighting tensions between token burn benefits and user expenses.
