In a Twitter thread, Ripple CTO Schwartz confirmed that the community could decide to burn 48 million XRP tokens. This is related to the specific provisions of the protocol.Not only the Bitcoin course is currently experiencing a soaring. Almost in its slipstream, the Altcoin Ripple (XRP) has also soared to new heights. Now, however, threatens a huge damper on the part of the validators. The chief technology officer of Ripple, David Schwartz, has according to media reports admitted that the company could be forced by the validators to burn its 48 billion XRP tokens. Whether the company agrees or not is irrelevant in the ledger\u2019s log.Ripple itself currently has half of the total XRP offering. In the past, there have been several accusations of price manipulation due to the sale of tokens. However, Ripple has always firmly denied these allegations. In order to avoid such allegations, however, Ripple has recently discontinued this sales practice.In a Twitter thread , Schwartz confirmed that the community could very well vote for Ripple to burn its entire stash of XRP tokens. Should it actually come to that, there is nothing Ripple can do about it. The blockchain lives off its democracy.The XRP Ledger is run by independent participants from a global XRP community, with Ripple itself playing an important role. In it, Independent Validator Nodes come to an agreement on the sequence and validity of XRP transactions. Active validators of the ledger are, for example, universities, stock exchanges and financial institutions. There are currently 36 validators, of which Ripple has six.XRP ledger changes require an 80 percent approval rate from the ledger\u2019s validators. They will take effect if this threshold is maintained for two weeks. In June, the XRPL validators specifically voted to accept a new amendment entitled \u201cCheck Amendment\u201d without Ripple\u2019s consent.
