"Yeah, this makes business sense for us to do and would make us money, but we don't want to do it because it also makes this other company money." — David 'JoelKatz' Schwartz (@JoelKatz) April 2, 2026 Schwartz stated on Thursday that Ripple’s close relationship with XRP Ledger would be mutually beneficial, but not necessarily lucrative for other companies adopting its payment products.
