Abstract

The XRP Ledger is an open-source payment system with a primary focus on providing an efficient cross-border payment network. The advancement of the XRP Ledger relies on the agreement of validator nodes which propose candidate transaction sets to be included in the next ledger through an iterative consensus process. Unlike Bitcoin miners, there is no reward scheme to incentivize volunteers to run an XRP validator node. In this article, the energy consumption of an XRP validator is studied to quantify the cost to run this node. Various parameters in the configuration settings are also modified to study the change in the energy consumed. Using these results, estimated annual electricity costs are compared.
XRP验证器能耗分析
瑞波币账本是一个开源支付系统,主要致力于提供一个高效的跨境支付网络。瑞波币分类帐的进步依赖于验证器节点的协议,验证器节点通过迭代的共识过程提出候选交易集,以包含在下一个分类帐中。与比特币矿工不同,没有奖励计划来激励志愿者运行XRP验证器节点。在本文中,研究了XRP验证器的能耗,以量化运行该节点的成本。还修改了配置设置中的各种参数,以研究能耗的变化。利用这些结果,对估计的年电费进行比较。
