Chainlink vs XRP — Competitors. Jake Claver on liquidity.

What this recording covers
Claver addresses whether Chainlink and XRP compete with each other. He explains that Chainlink functions as an enterprise oracle and also offers cross-chain interoperability through its CCIP protocol, while XRP and the XRPL serve as a settlement layer. Because smart contracts require real-world data to operate, every contract needs an oracle, and Claver says Chainlink holds the largest presence in enterprise oracle services. He notes that the XRPL can integrate oracles and that projects building on it, including one that developed a time-series oracle, also need that data layer. Claver describes the two as mutually beneficial rather than competing, and separately suggests that another network may become the leading oracle for public applications.
