Linea

As conversations around blockchain infrastructure continue to evolve, confusion often arises over the different roles of major networks and digital assets.
Crypto commentator Eri (@sentosumosaba) has highlighted a detailed thread from Yellow Chairman Alexis Sirkia that seeks to distinguish the functions of Ripple, XRP, Linea, and Hyperledger while explaining why he remains optimistic about both XRP and Linea.
Sharing the thread on X, Eri pointed followers to Sirkia’s explanation, emphasizing one of its central arguments: <a href="https://timestabloid.com/david-schwartz-drops-a-major-fact-about-ripple-and-xrp/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ripple and XRP</a> focus on providing liquidity infrastructure, as SWIFT’s emerging use of Linea technology centers on moving tokenized assets issued by banks themselves. Eri encouraged readers to review the full thread to understand the relationship between these technologies rather than viewing them as direct competitors.

Sirkia began by outlining Hyperledger’s origins, noting that the Linux Foundation established it. He explained that Hyperledger Fabric was largely contributed by IBM in 2015, while Consensys developed Hyperledger Besu and donated it to the Hyperledger Foundation, now known as the Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust. According to Sirkia, Consensys continues to serve as the primary maintainer of Besu.
He stated that Linea was built on top of Hyperledger Besu and argued that although the Linux Foundation originally intended Hyperledger to remain a framework without its own cryptocurrency, permissionless blockchain networks ultimately required native digital assets. He suggested that this evolution led to the development of Linea.

The thread also addressed SWIFT’s reported use of Linea technology. Sirkia claimed that SWIFT built its first private permissioned test ledger using the complete Linea technology stack rather than relying solely on Hyperledger Besu. He said this implementation included zero-knowledge privacy technology, high transaction throughput, and advanced state management capabilities.
According to Sirkia, Linea’s selective disclosure model was a major factor behind its appeal. He explained that the technology allows authorized parties, such as regulators or central banks, to access transaction details through viewing keys while keeping sensitive financial information hidden from competitors and the public. He added that this balance between privacy and regulatory oversight aligns with ideas promoted by <a href="https://timestabloid.com/clarity-act-alert-vitalik-buterin-declares-war-on-ripple-and-xrp/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin</a> in his research on privacy-preserving blockchain systems.

<h2 id="strong-ripple-and-xrp-fill-a-different-role-strong">Ripple and XRP Fill a Different Role</h2>
A major focus of the thread was the distinction between Ripple’s business model and SWIFT’s reported use of Linea technology. Sirkia argued that the two solutions address different financial needs rather than competing directly.
He stated that <a href="https://timestabloid.com/ripple-and-xrp-are-now-legally-permitted-in-europe-heres-the-proof/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ripple and XRP</a> are designed to provide liquidity infrastructure for cross-border payments, particularly in corridors where moving money efficiently remains difficult. In contrast, he said SWIFT’s use of Linea technology is intended to facilitate the movement of <a href="https://timestabloid.com/ripple-cto-explains-benefits-of-real-world-asset-tokenization-details/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">tokenized assets</a> issued by banks themselves.
Sirkia concluded by disclosing that he holds significant positions in both Linea and XRP. While expressing confidence in the long-term potential of both ecosystems, he said investors should understand that each serves a distinct purpose within the evolving financial infrastructure rather than expecting one to replace the other.
