While Morgan's reaction was not entirely direct about whether he is in support or not, commentators disagreed with the narrative, noting that the reverse will be the case. Morgan only quoted the claims in what seemed like sarcasm.
The debate was triggered by an XRP-based developing situation involving FXRP, where cross-network bridging has been temporarily paused as a precaution following an rsETH-related incident.
Notably, the pause affects transfers between networks such as Flare and Ethereum, leaving users unable to redeem FXRP held off the Flare network until assets are bridged back. Despite this, core operations on Flare remain fully functional.
