According to your article and im taking one of your sentence
Quote
currently used as a bridge asset for cross-border transactions
Is that what you have called that as a real use case? I think if that is not related to the utility usage of the coin.
isn't ripple use case will be pegged to the another platform?

people who are in cryptocurrency world care about two things only. profit or decentralization. neither of which can be satisfied with XRP since it is centralized and also not profitable anymore since it stopped pumping and have been dumped for the past 2 years.

that is why there isn't any real world use cases either. those who care about decentralization stick to the decentralized coins instead. and those who care about profit don't touch coins outside of exchanges.

Hi Red-Apple, XRP is decentralized.  It's a minority operator on both the 'recommended' UNL and the non-recommended UNL.

There are multiple definitions of 'use case' and also the granularity of what constitutes a use case.

Because of this issue, I'll just stated that I'm using the term to mean 'business use' more so than the technical term 'use case' as in 'incapsulated function that can be called.'

The "use case" won't make much difference if the number of people using it is just a handful.
I have been holding ripple since 2018 and up till now, the price is stagnant. That shows that its adoption is not fully mainstream yet despite all its major partnerships

No.  All it shows is that the market is irrational, which most of us here in crypto already know.   8)
