Payments Network over the Globe
Garlinghouse talks about payments networks around the world with CEO of PayPal Daniel Schulman. They exchange ideas at the FinTech Ideas Festival 2019. According to Garlinghouse, the existing payment system needs upgrades. He finds them too slow and inefficient that they immediately need upgrades.
On the other hand, the process to transfer money across different countries takes time. Even if the payment system goes through updates and innovations, it takes days to transfer money.
He further added that the blockchain technology has the power to change the present scenario. The CEO of Ripple says that the payment networks at present today are not interoperable. He added that he is a PayPal customer, a Venmo customer and he is not satisfied with the operations. According to him the lack of interoperability manifests within a network.

XRP’s Strong payment use case
The CEO of Ripple thinks in the same way as the Internet managed for interoperability. According to him, this kind of operability can only happen through payment via blockchain. He thinks such payment to be solid and the most important one.

He says that payment use case is a real-time experience and must be interoperable.
