【Crypto World】Solana Breakpoint Conference Announces Major News—The Solana Foundation is building a permissionless bridge connecting the XRP ledger. What does this mean? Simply put, it aims to bring liquidity from the XRP ecosystem into Solana.

The numbers are staggering: $122 billion worth of XRP assets could flow into Solana’s DeFi space. Imagine XRP holders no longer confined to their own ecosystem; they can freely operate within Solana’s various dApps—lending, mining, trading tokenized assets—adding a whole new layer of gameplay.

The technical details are impressive as well. This bridge is jointly developed by the Solana Foundation, LayerZero, and HexTrust, using a non-custodial model that supports 1:1 redemption. In other words, the trust risk is significantly reduced, making user assets safer. Compared to traditional centralized exchange reliance, this decentralized cross-chain solution clearly aligns better with the Web3 spirit.

From an ecosystem perspective, this is a strategic move for Solana to expand its user base and liquidity. Who wouldn’t want more active users and real assets?

1.22 trillion is an intimidating number, but can the funds really arrive? --- Non-custodial bridges sound good, but LayerZero has been scrutinized... Do you still dare to use it? --- Will XRP holders really come to SOL to play DeFi, or is it just another air hype? --- Basically, it's mutual blood transfusion. We'll see which ecosystem dies first. --- 1:1 redemption sounds simple, but what's the actual probability of a scam, friends?

122 billion? SOL is about to swallow the XRP ecosystem, that's a bit ruthless

122 billion? Damn, if that really happens, the SOL ecosystem is going to explode.

Is XRP really about to take off? 122 billion into the Solana ecosystem... Ripple must be getting anxious now. --- Non-custodial bridge + 1:1 redemption, sounds reliable, but we still need to see how it performs in practice. --- It's both LayerZero and Hexttrust, a strong lineup. Now it's just a matter of whether they can truly release liquidity. --- Solana is again playing cross-chain, and the ecosystem expansion speed is outrageous... I'm a bit worried about potential issues. --- Wait, will XRP holders really migrate heavily to Solana? Or is it just a hype?

nah listen, "non-custodial" and "1:1 redemption" are the security theater lines we hear right before the post-mortem drops... LayerZero bridges have this uncanny knack for becoming case studies, y'know? $120B crossing that rail is exactly the kind of risk surface exploit patterns love to target. i've literally called this architecture flaw pattern before.

$122 billion? That number sounds outrageous. I’d be surprised if all of it actually flows in. XRP holders finally have a use case, but can this bridge really avoid a major crash? I'm a bit skeptical about the LayerZero bridge. Let’s wait and see if this time it works. Damn, non-custodial + 1:1 redemption—this might actually be stable this time, unlike those fancy tricks before. Wait a minute, is this just looking for a scapegoat for XRP or is it actually mutually beneficial?
