I talked to @goodalexander about validator economics and the numbers are wild. “XRP is the most scoped down system you could imagine. It costs like $500,000 a year to secure compared to Solana at $16 million a day." "It's actually quite expensive to bribe the ai companies. You would need to get someone inside of Anthropic, a person inside of Deepseek, a person inside of Google to manipulate validation.” Full interview drops today 12pm ET.
