Go to XRPL.org its literally that and it exists since like 2013, It whole goal back then was to make a better bitcoin.

Plenty other projects have adapted the concept or even forked the code. The core team behind this back when it was named opencoin are without a doubt millionaires now and some even billionaires. So you are right but it way way to late now. Not to says that there could not be a even better solutions. But its already several thousand times better if you compare raw metrics like speed/TPS/energy usage etc. an even better solution would likely not make that much of a difference again.

Ripple has issues, iirc. It is not "the" solution yet.
Ripple is a company. The XRPL is fully functional since many years.
