XRP is attracting renewed interest following comments from Bitwise Asset Management's CIO, Matt Hougan, who emphasized the token's potential for value capture. Hougan pointed out that tokens such as UNI and ETH are evolving to provide direct economic benefits to holders, and XRP's community is considering staking to align incentives. Additionally, Ripple's CTO, David Schwartz, has proposed a two-layer consensus model aimed at supporting new economic features on the XRP Ledger. This development could enhance XRP's utility and appeal to investors seeking tokens with strong value propositions.
