Many seem very clueless about what XRP actually is..

It will never be an IMF reserve currency because of the simple fact that XRP is not a currency. It is a simple bridge tool to make a currency swap between two different currencies fast and low cost. There lies the value of Ripple for banks.

In order to facilitate a currency swap 1 drop is burned per transaction. 1 drop is 1/1000000 of  ONE XRP (!!!) Yes, that is one millionth of a single xrp is only needed to swap between two currencies.

The height of the fiat (USD or EURO or JPY etc) value in that swap is pretty much limitless... This means that banks can swap BILLIONS of USD with GBP or JPY on just a couple of drops...

Ripple Labs created 100Billion xrp in this way to sustain global finance for decades, if not centuries....

You and me as normal people therefore only need to possess 1 XRP to , for the rest of our lives, have the possibility to make currency swaps with our family/ friends in Australia/ Brazil/ Canada/ Europe etc.... But that is pretty much all we can do with XRP... cheaply convert euro into usd etc etc...

Unless you are a billionaire with family in every economy worldwide you want to send money to on a daily basis, there is not much real world value to owning more than 1-10 XRP.... You just dont need more than that to successfully use the system for years and years...

Now we see the speculation on XRP and people holding thousands - even millions - of XRP...... Now in the bubble it is cool and if you sell fast you can make sick profits... but in the future you will just sit on thousands of XRP that wont do anything for you at all... Nobody will buy them from you...

The only parties that would be interested in buying XRP from you are (central) banks.... But they will have their own stock that will keep them going at least until 2075 or so.... So you can wait for that order the next 50 years....

XRP and STR are bridge tools, not currencies.... educate yourself before you pour all your money in here just because you read about banks and central banks... this is NOT a currency and never will be...


I was really surprised to see the insane recent rally on XRP and Stellar but now I see what it was about... The big whales have also noticed the gullible dreamers that get wet reading the words central and banks, and the whales have created the waves to pump and dump... just check the order books on Polo.... Whales buy and sell 30-70 BTC per trade and have eaten most of your newbies money by now.... The crash of Stellar and Ripple yesterday and today just sealed the deal.....Be warned, if you want to trade xrp - which you are free to do - just dont lose sight of the whales with the multiple BTC orders cuz they will eat all your money in a heartbeat..

Anyway, Im staying away after I sold my modest gains over all of last week. Good luck! )

Many seem very clueless about what XRP actually is.. ..


>> In order to facilitate a currency swap 1 drop is burned per transaction. 1 drop is 1/1000000 of  ONE XRP (!!!) ....

WRONG: To facilitate swap of worth X, Y amount of XRP is required on the ledger. Where Y = X + Ripple network fees. So simply put 100 dollar swap requires 100 Dollar worth XRP. XRP is the protocol asset, that "Stands" instead of a counter party.  Go educate !



>> Ripple Labs created 100Billion xrp in this way to sustain global finance for decades, if not centuries....

and thank god for that. I would any day trust  a registered , regulated and licensed company which can be sued in court for fraud, instead of basement and onion web altcoins. So again - Apt for your name, go trust the mafia and hope word of mouth is never cheated upon. We  love civilization.

>> You and me as normal people therefore only need to possess 1 XRP to , for the rest of our lives, have the possibility to make currency swaps with our family/ friends in Australia/ Brazil/ Canada/ Europe etc.... But that is pretty much all we can do with XRP... cheaply convert euro into usd etc etc...

LOL, have any idea what you are blabbering ? because its incoherent.  Here : The yearly numbers from pewresearch (http://www.pewglobal.org/interactives/remittance-map/) and mind you this is only 42% of labor based ( daily hard working international employees ) remittance - sending money back to and fro home.




>> Unless you are a billionaire with family in every economy worldwide you want to send money to on a daily basis, there is not much real world value to owning more than 1-10 XRP.... You just dont need more than that to successfully use the system for years and years...

Wrong, It is investing in 21st century Swift and also holding an instrument that actually does the job. Better then holding apple stocks , google shares etc.. here you are investing in future of great technology that is trying to achieve IOV and also holding the asset responsible.

You know what IOV is ? go read


>> XRP and STR are bridge tools, not currencies.... educate yourself ..

LOL, LMAO - A Platform is a tool ( Example RCL , or private ledgers) , XRP is an "asset" that the tool 'uses' ... what does it do ?

For a start saves banks from having nostro accounts at 100 other banks in many foreign countries and hold foreign reserve in each of these places.

Now, banks can simply worry about being present in rcl, trusting partners and simply holding XRP - The protocol enabling "Asset".

Man ! you went to school ?


>> The only parties that would be interested in buying XRP from you are (central) banks.... But they will have their own stock that will keep them going at least until 2075 or so.... So you can wait for that order the next 50 years....
 
How about I burst you bubble here again .. ?  here we go

Here :




>> I was really surprised to see the insane recent rally on XRP and Stellar but now I see what it was about.

We  you know what is liquidity ? you know what is liquid market ? you know structure deficit ?

Because we know why you are here, and your desperateness is strangely satisfying... the more you attack, the more truth comes out, and the stronger ripple gets as people see all the hard work they have done while everyone in crypto world was pretending real work , governments and banks doesn't exist.

LMAO, So Troll , now be enough ashamed and go away - we are not interested !

good little troll story there..

Distributing value is a powerful way to incentivize certain behaviors. Bitcoin’s mechanism, for example, led to an explosion of processing power devoted to bitcoin mining. Our goal in distributing XRP is to incentivize actions that build trust, utility and liquidity in the network.

If we distribute XRP with these goals in mind, over time we expect to see an increase in demand for XRP that more than offsets the additional supply we inject into the market. Said another way, we will engage in distribution strategies that we expect will result in a stable and strengthening XRP exchange rate against other currencies.

Guys, can anyone tell me what is most likely to happen to the price of Ripple if there were to be a worldwide financial crash. Lets take the 2008-2008 housing crisis. If the same even occured, would the price go up or down....

In their internal community, 'Rumors' are dense about Ripple releasing an extensive lock-up agreement spanning a whole decade and more.  removing all market worries about supply.


Come on rumours.

Rumours you made up?

there are 100 billion Ripple right now but only 37 billions is out. 2/3 will be issued in upcoming 10 years.

sorry i find that hard to believe...
there are hundreds of coins i have never owned....many get pumped 10x to 100x , some actual real scams , i have never posted on a forum where i am not interested unless i have some real important facts, 100% truths that can be verified and i know people might find the info helpful.
What you have done today and few days ago , says to me you are acting like you are concerned but have nothing to back up what you think.
The reason your doing this...you shorted and want back in....
i could be wrong...maybe you really are a caring person and you have went on hundreds of other coin threads , warning and saving people lol  

my advice...just get back in now before next big rise  Wink

If you never owned these "fiat currencies", leopard2, why waste your time ranting about them? I have enough human knowledge to distinguise between people giving their honest opinion and those who have higher motives.
The crypto space is full of useless, redundant, scam coins. But do I waste my time in the topics of those coins going on a crusade against them? No. Because I don't fucking care others speculate on those coins. I have nothing to gain by talking people out of their chosen coins. It does not cause the price of Bitcoin to sink, because the Bitcoin do not get sold. Merely swapped hands in exchange for the respective (scam)coins.
If your motive is to get more BTC inflow into the order books of the altcoins you are invested in... then realise you are mopping with the water faucet running. New altcoins are going to surface faster than you can write your crusade posts.

i think every altcoin will getting increase and not just for ripple because if bitcoin price is increase, this will make altcoin is getting increase too and altcoin will make new price. ripple somehow will back in higher price like before and for now, with bitcoin price that still going increase, i think ripple will going to go up soon.

Alright I guess that is a fair response

I was posting only because I found that there was something cult-ish about XRP and too many newbies do not even understand that it is not a cryptocurrency.

Most altcoins I do not care about because they are alt-COINS not alt-TOKENS and crypto is all about owning your money - in the case of USD, USDT or XRP that is not possible and people should know.

I'll move on and have fun elsewhere  Smiley
