Cardano Founder Makes Surprise DeFi Move, Targeting the XRP Community

2025/12/15 03:32

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson surprised the crypto world by suddenly posing a question to the XRP community: If an XRP-focused DeFi summit were to be held at the University of Edinburgh, which projects should be invited?

This post was not well received, given the long-standing tumultuous relationship between Hoskinson and XRP holders. Just a year ago, he publicly clashed with some members of the XRP community, accusing others of misinterpreting his words and denying claims that those within Ethereum were influencing the SEC against Ripple. These disagreements have left scars on both sides, so this move seems more deliberate than accidental.

But this time the tone was different. Hoskinson skipped the explanations and went straight to the developers. The responses quickly filled with XRPL infrastructure projects, DeFi tools, and interoperability solutions; demonstrating that at least a part of the XRP ecosystem is open to interaction, as long as the door remains open.

It’s unclear whether this move is part of a larger strategic shift or merely an academic project. However, the timing is interesting.

Solana + XRP

Solana also confirmed the integration of XRP, meaning that Wrapped XRP is now active and supported at a 1:1 ratio on Solana. This means that XRP is now seen as an active DeFi asset outside of its native ledger. This change makes Ethereum less dominant in the cross-chain DeFi world.

Considering all these signs, it’s hard to ignore them. Cardano is scouting XRP developers, Solana is incorporating XRP liquidity, and Ethereum’s monopolistic dominance over DeFi is loosening. Things that seemed impossible a few years ago are now being tested, and the boundaries between ecosystems are beginning to blur.

This is not investment advice.

The movie also has a 96% score on Rotten Tomatoes based on the first 56 reviews, with only two reviews considered “rotten,” or negative. The Associated Press hailed the movie as “an American masterpiece,” noting the movie touches on topical political themes and depicts a society where “gun violence, white power and immigrant deportations recur in an ongoing dance, both farcical and tragic.” The movie stars DiCaprio as an ex-revolutionary who reunites with former accomplices to rescue his 16-year-old daughter when she goes missing, and Anderson has said the movie was inspired by the 1990 novel, “Vineland.” Most critics have described the movie as an action thriller with notable chase scenes, which jumps in time from DiCaprio’s character’s early days with fictional revolutionary group, the French 75, to about 15 years later, when he is pursued by foe and military leader Captain Steven Lockjaw, played by Sean Penn. The Warner Bros.-produced film was made on a big budget, estimated to be between $130 million and $175 million, and co-stars Penn, Benicio del Toro, Regina Hall and Teyana Taylor.
