Ripple vs Web3j: What are the differences?

Ripple: A real-time gross settlement system, currency exchange and remittance network. It is an open source protocol which is designed to allow fast and cheap transactions; Web3j: Lightweight Java and Android library for integration with Ethereum clients. It is a lightweight, highly modular, reactive, type safe Java and Android library for working with Smart Contracts and integrating with clients (nodes) on the Ethereum network. This allows you to work with the Ethereum blockchain, without the additional overhead of having to write your own integration code for the platform.

Ripple can be classified as a tool in the "Blockchain" category, while Web3j is grouped under "Java Tools".

Some of the features offered by Ripple are:

  • Access
  • Speed
  • Certainty

On the other hand, Web3j provides the following key features:

  • Complete implementation of Ethereum's JSON-RPC client API over HTTP and IPC
  • Ethereum wallet support
  • Auto-generation of Java smart contract wrappers to create, deploy, transact with and call smart contracts from native Java code (Solidity and Truffle definition formats supported)
