According to U.Today, the debate surrounding the decentralization of Ripple and the XRP Ledger has intensified, with blockchain researcher Justin Bons criticizing the network's reliance on Unique Node Lists (UNLs). Bons argues that this reliance indicates a centralized and permissioned system, akin to a proof of authority (PoA) model, which he believes is inferior to the trustless frameworks of proof of work (PoW) and proof of stake (PoS). He claims that the Ripple Foundation exerts significant control over the network, citing dynamic changes to UNLs managed through foundation-hosted infrastructure as evidence of centralized oversight. Bons further contends that the requirement for a 90% overlap in UNL configurations to prevent forking exemplifies an exclusionary and permissioned model. He also highlights the absence of crypto-economic incentives for validators, which he sees as a flaw in the system, arguing that it lacks both decentralization and alignment with core cryptocurrency principles. In response to these criticisms, Ripple's Chief Technology Officer, David Schwartz, has offered a different perspective. Schwartz emphasizes that validators have a minimal role in determining the network's fairness or security, as their influence is limited to short-term transaction ordering. He notes that validators are not compensated and cannot unilaterally censor transactions unless supported by other participants, a rare occurrence given the system's distributed nature. Schwartz argues that unlike PoW systems, which he describes as prioritizing monetary dominance, XRP's design minimizes the potential for concentrated control. He explains that other node operators can choose to ignore nodes that do not follow the rules, and consensus automatically disregards such nodes at the network level. Schwartz also points out that decentralization involves more than just technical aspects; it includes having open transaction rules, a public ledger, and allowing users to modify and enforce system code independently. While acknowledging XRP's unique structure, Schwartz does not believe it equates to centralization.

According to Cointelegraph, Chainlink's native token, LINK, experienced a significant surge, rising by 29% as community members positioned it as a more authentic 'bank coin' compared to XRP. On December 3, LINK's value climbed to $25.32, marking an almost 30% increase within 24 hours. Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro indicated that the token was valued at $16.54 on November 26, reflecting a 53% gain over the past week. The recent rally in Chainlink's price may be attributed to several factors, including the recent performance of XRP and developments within the blockchain oracle network's ecosystem. On December 1, XRP surged to $2.46 before slightly retreating, as community members anticipated a more favorable political climate for cryptocurrencies in the United States and progress in Ripple's stablecoin project. Some proponents of Chainlink believe that the attention garnered by XRP's recent rally could also benefit LINK. Aylo, a researcher and adviser to decentralized finance protocol Kamino Finance, suggested that XRP's recent performance might highlight Chainlink's partnerships with traditional finance and capital markets. Aylo emphasized that Chainlink is actively collaborating with traditional financial institutions. Chainlink advocate Zach Rynes, known as ChainLinkGod on social media, echoed Aylo's sentiments, asserting that LINK is the true 'bank coin.' Rynes highlighted Chainlink's collaborations with major banks and traditional finance institutions worldwide, aiming to connect banks to blockchain technology. He stated that these partnerships are not speculative but represent the tangible work Chainlink is doing with financial institutions, as announced by the banks themselves. Rynes also defended Chainlink against the 'just an oracle' narrative and criticized the XRP project, comparing it to a memecoin. He argued that XRP is a 'banker-themed memecoin' that failed to gain significant traction for cross-border payments, especially when stablecoins and central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) are available. Rynes suggested that this is why Ripple is shifting its focus towards its stablecoin, custody, and CBDC platform.
