Wanted to add as I can't edit. Thanks for sharing Interledger! My post may have come off aggressive but that was not my intention. It was to ensure people don't conflate blockchain with Interledger. Matt

Just to clarify, Interledger is a minimal payments clearing protocol, not a blockchain project. It was developed to mimic many of the characteristics of the Internet Protocol stack in order to “internetwork” clearing participants. The effec

The latter. The underlying settlement is separate concern to clearing. Crypto just makes settlement easier for low-zero trust environments or situations where you want to manage liquidity better.

by matdehaast 7y ago
Certain use cases are currently very difficult/too expensive on current payment rails (Card networks, ACH etc.). Whilst I am not bullish on using Crypto directly. I think a clearing layer that can be settled with crypto can create a ve

I keep seeing this statement but not sure what other sources to consume. What is a good alternative?
