Mind Your Credit

Abstract: The Ripple credit network has emerged as a payment backbone with key advantages for financial institutions and the remittance industry. Its path-based IOweYou (IOU) settlements across different (crypto)currencies conceptually distinguishes the Ripple blockchain from cryptocurrencies (such as Bitcoin and altcoins), and makes it highly suitable to an orthogonal yet vast set of applications in the remittance world for cross-border transactions and beyond. This work studies the structure and evolution of the Rippl… Show more

“…In this case, XRP is only used to pay the minute transaction fee imposed to prevent senseless transactions (Rapoport et al 2014). To settle credit between sender and receiver, the most suitable route of credit between the sender's and receiver's banks is used (Moreno-Sanchez et al 2018). Whenever a payment is made that involves two banks that are not connected by a direct trust line (i.e., Nostro accounts), the payment "ripples" through other trust relationships in the network.…”

“…Risks that are particularly pronounced due to the early level of RippleNet implementation are the lack of liquidity and the poor inter-connectivity of certain banks. Moreno-Sanchez et al (2018) show that if banks are poorly interconnected, then it is possible that users can no longer access their funds even if the involved sender and beneficiary bank are not insolvent. In this case, the issue of liability is unclear.…”

“…12 Moreno-Sanchez et al analysed the Ripple network structure and investigated the corresponding vulnerabilities that may cause attacks and affect the credit of users. 13 In the papers mentioned above, only Moreno-Sanchez et al 13 have analysed the topology of the Ripple network. Moreno-Sanchez et al 13 analysed the network from vulnerability perspectives, whereas this paper focuses on the topology formed by accounts to identify the potential bottlenecks in the topology.…”
