Ripple Hits New UNL Decentralization Milestone, Here Are The Participants

Although the XRP Ledger (XRP) is an open-source, public, and decentralized layer 1 blockchain run by a global community of developers, there has been a history of criticism for perceived centralization; the most high-profile case being the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission accusing Ripple Labs of issuing an unregistered security.

Critics cite the original distribution of XRP to Ripple on the one hand and the functionality of the XRP ledger on the other. Back in May 2017, Ripple tilkynnt stefnu til að auka valddreifingu og tryggja að engin ein aðili hafi rekstrarstjórn yfir XRP Ledger.

Á þeim tíma skipti fyrirtækið yfir í að nota staðfestingarskrár, bætt öryggi löggildingaraðila og birti ráðlagðan Unique Node List (UNL) með því að nota nýja Dynamic UNL innviðina. Að auki tilkynnti fyrirtækið að óháðum löggildingaraðilum verði bætt við ráðlagða UNL.

“During that time, for every two independent validators that are added in the recommended UNL, one Ripple-operated validator will be removed,” the company announced back in February 2018m and went on to say; “The end state will be a network with a varied set of validators, operated by multiple entities from different locations, all sharing one common goal: the long term health and stability of the XRP Ledger.

XRPL nær miklum áfanga miðstýringar

XRP Ledger náði nýlega þessum stórfellda valddreifingartíma. XRP Ledger Foundation út its latest UNL recommendation yesterday. According to it, Aesthetes, an NFT marketplace for physical and digital art, has been added to the UNL list published by the XRP Ledger Foundation while removing a Ripple hnút.

The XRP Ledger node on the dUNL @rippleitinNZ, wrote via Twitter, “Ripple is now down to 1 validator on published UNL’s out of 34 (2.9%) and no single entity has more than 1 validator on the UNL.”

Auk Ripple validator, the University of Korea validator was also removed from the list. According to the report, its operator was “unavailable for weeks” and occupied a slot for a negative unique-node list, which includes validators temporarily offline during crashes or maintenance updates.

„Okkur er ljóst að fjöldi staðfestingaraðila í birtu UNL okkar hefur lækkað lítillega úr 35 í 34 með þessum breytingum. Við erum fullviss um að við munum auka listastærðina í næstu uppfærslu,“ bætti XRP Ledger Foundation við.

What Role Does Ripple Play Anyway?

Á XRP Ledger tryggja allir hnútar að færslur uppfylli kröfur samskiptareglunnar og koma sér saman um slíka röð sem kemur í veg fyrir tvöfalda eyðslu. UNL eru listar yfir löggildingaraðila.

Currently, there are three publishers: Ripple, the XRP Ledger Foundation, and Coil known for publishing recommended standard lists of high-quality validators. However, each server operator can choose their own UNL, with Ripple’s list being the default at rippled, the server software that powers the XRP Ledger.

Jafnvel ef Ripple recommends its list, it does not then create a centralized system because it is based on an opt-in. If the company ceases operations or acts maliciously, participants can change their UNLs and use a list from another issuer.

Samkvæmt XRP skönnun, sjálfgefna UNL samanstendur nú af aðeins einum hnút frá fyrirtækinu sem SEC hefur kært. Afgangurinn eru kauphallir, eins og Bitso og Bitrue, háskólar eins og Global University í London (Bretlandi), Háskólinn í Nikósíu (Kýpur), Háskólinn í Waterloo (Kanada), XRP vistkerfiseiningar eins og Gatehub, Blysnet, XRP Scan, Towo Labs, Bithomp og fleiri, þar á meðal AT TOKYO (leiðandi fyrirtæki innan gagnaveriðnaðarins, Flagship Solutions Group og Brex.

Við prentun var XRP verðið $0.4095.
