Скачать или смотреть SWIFT Just Chose Linea — Does This Kill or Confirm Ripple’s Vision?

SWIFT — the messaging system that connects over 11,000 banks worldwide — just made a major move into blockchain.

Partnering with ConsenSys (the team behind MetaMask) and testing with banks like JP Morgan, Citi, and Bank of America, SWIFT is building a shared blockchain ledger to explore stablecoin and tokenized-asset settlement.

That ledger is rumored to run on Linea, ConsenSys’s Layer 2 network built to “help Ethereum win.”

But if SWIFT is using Ethereum rails… where does that leave Ripple and XRP — the project built from day one to move money globally, instantly, and neutrally?

In this episode, I dig into what this partnership really means — not from fear, but from curiosity — comparing Linea’s purpose with XRP’s role in the future financial system.

We’ll explore:
💥 What SWIFT + Linea actually announced (and what’s just speculation)
💥 How Linea’s Ethereum-focused design differs from Ripple’s neutral liquidity approach
💥 Why interoperability through Axelar, Wormhole, and the XRPL EVM Sidechain keeps XRP positioned at the center
💥 And why this announcement might actually confirm Ripple’s long-term vision rather than threaten it
