Prominent crypto pundit Paul Barron highlights the unfolding fragmentation of global finance, revealing the true motive behind XRP’s existence. 
<adv/>In a recent X post, Barron, the host of the Paul Barron Network (PBN), indicates that banks are currently racing to launch their own stablecoins. 
<adv/><h2>Banks Pursuing Separate Stablecoin Initiatives </h2>
He pointed out that financial institutions, including JPMorgan, Bank of America, Citigroup, and Wells Fargo, are currently developing a U.S. Consortium stablecoin. 
While these respective stablecoin initiatives represent progress, they also introduce a key challenge in the form of fragmentation. Barron noted that these financial institutions are only seeking control, not shared, neutral infrastructure. 
Highlighting this issue, Barron questioned how these isolated financial ecosystems would ultimately bridge their walled gardens and achieve true interoperability. 
<h2>Why XRP Exists </h2>
Interestingly, he emphasized that this is exactly why XRP exists, suggesting that the token was designed to bridge this so-called walled garden. 
In his reasoning, as banks create isolated ecosystems via their own stablecoins, a neutral bridge asset becomes essential for enabling value transfer between them. XRP, designed for fast, low-cost cross-border settlement, can serve as that interoperability layer, connecting these “walled gardens” of financial infrastructure. 
XRP has served as a neutral bridge asset for cross-border settlements. Despite not being owned by any government or institution, financial institutions have leveraged it for cross-border transactions, eliminating the need for pre-funding of accounts while also freeing up liquidity. 
Although Brad Garlinghouse joined Ripple in 2015, three years after XRP’s launch, Barron suggested that the Ripple CEO may have foreseen the current trend of banks pursuing control through proprietary systems. 
In doing so, he likely anticipated that this fragmentation would ultimately increase global demand for a neutral and interoperable asset, such as XRP. Rather than compete against bank-issued digital currencies, Barron is of the view that XRP exists solely to connect them all.

Top Expert Breaks Down the Real Reason XRP Exists

知名加密貨幣評論員保羅巴倫 (Paul Barron) 指出全球金融正在走向碎片化，並揭示了 XRP 存在的真正動機。

<div><div>著名加密貨幣評論員保羅·巴倫強調了全球金融日益碎片化的趨勢，揭示了 XRP 存在的真正動機。<adv/>在最近的 X 貼文中，保羅巴倫網路 (PBN) 的主持人巴倫表示，各大銀行目前正在競相推出自己的穩定幣。<adv/><h2>各家銀行各自推動穩定幣計劃</h2>他指出，包括摩根大通、美國銀行、花旗集團和富國銀行在內的金融機構目前正在開發美國聯盟穩定幣。儘管這些穩定幣計畫代表著進步，但也帶來了一個關鍵挑戰，那就是碎片化。巴倫指出，這些金融機構尋求的只是控制權，而非共享的、中立的基礎設施。巴倫著重指出了這個問題，並質疑這些孤立的金融生態系統最終將如何打破各自封閉的局面，實現真正的互通性。<h2> XRP存在的意義</h2>有趣的是，他強調這正是XRP存在的意義，暗示該代幣旨在打破這種所謂的「圍牆花園」。在他的論述中，隨著銀行透過各自的XRP幣來建構起彼此孤立的生態系統，一種中立的橋樑資產對於實現它們之間的價值轉移至關重要。 XRP 專為快速、低成本的跨境結算而設計，可以作為這種互通性層，連接這些各自獨立的金融基礎設施。 XRP已成為跨境結算的中立橋樑資產。儘管 XRP 不屬於任何政府或機構所有，但金融機構已利用它進行跨境交易，既無需預先註資帳戶，又釋放了流動性。儘管 Brad Garlinghouse 於 2015 年加入 Ripple，也就是 XRP 推出三年後，但 Barron 認為 Ripple 的執行長可能預見了銀行透過專有系統尋求控制的當前趨勢。他這樣做很可能是預料到這種碎片化最終會增加全球對中立且可互通資產（例如XRP）的需求。巴倫認為， XRP的存在並非為了與銀行發行的數位貨幣競爭，而是為了將它們全部連結起來。</div></div>
