RippleX developer J. Ayo Akinyele has dismissed concerns that XRP Ledger’s upcoming privacy upgrade could face the same security risks that recently rattled Zcash, stating that the network’s design contains multiple safeguards against hidden inflation and cryptographic exploits. His comments followed a discussion within the XRP community about whether increasingly powerful artificial intelligence systems could uncover flaws in zero-knowledge cryptography. The debate gained momentum when XRPL Foundation community lead Vet referenced the recent issues surrounding Zcash and questioned whether similar risks could emerge on XRP Ledger.
