i have been using xrp for quite some time now and that is because of their very economical transfer fee and who would contest about their tx time, one of the fastest ive used so far. so if they are exploring their opportunities to those countries, let us see how many institutions or merchants are they going to convince to include xrp as their payment method?
im not against with this coin but you need to hold your horses as others have mentioned, it really depends on the XRP team.
With such use I can also say that transactions fees and speed is really acceptable. I'm using this coin with my gambling activities.
sending small amount of my campaign payment to my sports betting site, it's really useful on my end.
In regards to this update, will be depend from how the team brings in investors businesses to to support this chain, impact will be
seen once there are true people and businesses that will go all in to this moves.
