I admit I haven't read up on XRP my understanding is that it's bankster coin so why would you prefer that to bitcorn.

It just might be a real good time to study Ripplenet.com the company, XRP history and Judge Analisa Torres ruling.
https://cointelegraph.com/news/ripple-wins-case-against-sec-as-judge-rules-xrp-is-not-a-security
There is "SO" much to this but maybe you can look at a few of these circumstances and come to your own opinion to buy or not to buy.
So much of the fud has come from BTC ETH maxi's which both are maximumly threatened by being way to slow and expensive to use as any standard.
XRP has been a threat from the beginning and actually the second crypto token created I believe I could send 50 million USD from point A to Point B in seconds for less then a cent. Most have no clue how integrated XRP and Ripplenet are already and about to be integrated into the global monetary system
FEDNOW ISO20022 Swift etc. Legacy Swift itself has tons of risk and loses about 6% in transaction failure I believe and on the avg Swift takes 7-10 days to settle and is at risk the whole time and in limbo for those using it, sender and receiver waiting for settlement.
Bitcoin is a sham imo, tell me just who the real creator of BTC is, and what gov. could actually use it not knowing who created it? Who knows what the real use case is "store of value" maybe, will see? Did the gov. actually create it and for who knows what reason, I have to ask how can all the gov., banks etc. use BTC when they supposedly don't know who created it. Believe me it will never be used to rule the global monetary system so slow, expensive and antiquated for real world use.
https://www.investopedia.com/tech/whats-difference-between-bitcoin-and-ripple/
I'm not a lawyer however I am of big doubt the SEC will appeal Judge Torres Ripple ruling on XRP itself going forward it would be a real risky bus. imo
and by the time it could even go to court we would be looking at 2-3 yrs down the road and XRP will be so rooted in the whole global monetary system it just isn't likely to happen. The ripple company creators may have to pay for the 1st disbursements to institutions for their option contracts or however they acquired their XRP etc.
Take a look at the history of Gary Gensler and the former heads of the SEC Jay Clayton, Bill Hinman and their association with the BTC and ETH maxi companies before and after holding those positions, who they worked for and who paid them. They are as dirty as all the heads of the 3 letter agencies and maybe much worse which you will see if you look into the whole picture from start to finish.

We already have digital money and there is a difference between digital and crypto.
For 1 with digital there is always a intermediate between you and your money think credit card/online banking. Now Crypto has the ability to be trustless because it can be programed into DEFI w/o human interference with the DEFI exchanges. You are correct if you are talking about CBDC prison which is already being used in other countries like China for instance among others. So in my opinion diversifying in commodities, crypto, RE, art and etc might just be a good idea. Remember how Canadians were locked out of there banking? I don't know what is best for anyone else's financial security except to actually do DD big time for yourself and figure out what works best for you...

One guy said BTC will go to $100-$120k by the end of this year. He’ll start to sell at $80k.

Thx it's always about risk management.
I am in doubt of 100k-120k this year anyway. Who Knows if ever, I just hope they are not in a hurry as well as not of bought the top and have a decent cost bases. The SEC got its head handed to it in litigation and because the $ETH ICO G. Gensler is probably looking for blood so $ETH may have some explaining to do. My analysis is indicating BTC is more likely heading to 10k-12k and the reason being is it sure looks like the USD DXY is trying to bottom out for now making assets very vulnerable equities, commodities as well as crypto. The main reason crypto has been held back here in the US is the lack of regulation from the SEC. For BTC hedge funds want some kind of a spot BTC ETF or something similar and if they get it things could get very interesting for BTC holder.
Some in congress are tired of Genslers shit and want actual regulation instead of force by litigation.

I read somewhere DHS sent someone to meet the creators and there were 4 of them but who knows, also supposedly (1 person) Satoshi Nakamoto's created BTC and that creator's wallet contains 900,000 to 1,000,000 BTC. I don't wish for the demise of BTC at all however by all measures things around BTC do seem sketchy to say the least.

People can invest in whatever they want, but just a cursory look tells me it ain't too stable. About 8% of it's total value is traded on the exchanges each and every day. So a 100% turnover every 12 days or so. There just ain't a lot of faith in it, but looks like it would be fun to speculate on. Well...at least if you had gambled a week ago. With a market cap of about $41 billion worldwide, there just ain't enough of it for it to be usable as a currency.

Stuff I learned about Ripple today...
All 100 billion XRP cryptocurrency has been premined, and the majority of Ripple’s share – about 45 billion XRP coins – is deposited in Ripple’s Escrow account. The remaining 55 billion XRP has been distributed to users around the world.
...
Ripple.net runs on proof-of-consensus algorithms, which account for the strengths of Ripple’s blockchain network.
...
XRP transactions are very fast. The ledger completes transactions in 3-5 seconds. That’s much faster than the average transaction confirmation time for trading BTC, which can go over 20 minutes on a given day.
...
Ripple can complete 1,500 transactions per second. That’s close to a standard payment processor like VISA, which manages 1,700 transactions per second. This makes it a good solution for fintech companies that need a stable infrastructure for high transaction volumes that competes with traditional payment systems like VISA and SWIFT.

Nice share brother, nice change for someone to actually share something applicable to this topic.
About that 100bil at most maybe1% if that are in the hands of the retail investor. It's true $XRP was created for the banks, institutions and cooperate world and not so much for retail and yet I am way fortunate to own a nice modest stack while it is soooo cheap. There is a report that by 2027 it is est. 270 trillion worth of cross boarder pmts will be made with ODL making that 100bil look pretty small in comparison. $XRP won't likely get it all but no doubt more then a fair share for sure.
If you are familiar with the SECs position on ICOs you will understand why particularly educated ETH owners are very concerned as are many other crypto project due to G Gensler and his disposition and the nature of things he just may want to go after ETH, a big dog for revenge after losing all hope to stop $XRP, that boat is long gone. Now that Gary lost he has lots of companies who offered ICOs he can go after now and ETH is the big 1...
As for BTC it is almost useless in real world use cases but as long as people are happy with the story I guess it will live on. I absolutely have to be skeptical considering supposedly "no 1 knows who told the story", who is it's author? Most who own BTC don't realize that NSA built the SHA-256 hash function that the blocks are built with. Makes an informed person go Hmmm. Also I have big doubts and don't even think for a minute it is possible BTC is "truely" decentralized?
1 thing for sure I look forward to the masses of that BTC, ETH and useless projects $$$ dumping into $XRP and it will, particularly with all the under estimation most seem to have with $USD strength that is about to turn crypto on it's head and do a shake down of all the projects and weak hands which will prove to be a large majority.

Shannon Thorp @thorpshannon87
I work in Treasury Management for a global bank. I am also a Realtor @ Herron Real Estate in NE Florida. XRP!!!
https://twitter.com/thorpshannon87/status/1681420969611517953
Let's talk $XRP! A few of you have asked about price prediction, time frames, etc. While no one can predict price, I will say (and I think we all know this) the price of XRP cannot be cheap. What's more, Retail will be priced out of XRP at some point. I see a lot of non-sense online regarding "the price is going to jump and then crash because everyone is going to sell". While that may be your theory...here's mine.
Retail only makes up about 1% of the XRP space. By the time the Fed, banks, businesses, etc. start putting their money into it, that 1% of retail is going to look like a minnow in an ocean! That 1% will not fluctuate the price at all. A large quantity of XRP facilitates a large quantity of banks whilst high price allows for higher transaction with less XRP. There's only so much XRP. That is my opinion.
Times frames. Again, something that cannot be predicted however, with Fednow going live July 20th, I would assume that they cannot be the only one going live. Whatever the Fed does, banks must follow because that is how they communicate back and forth. Whatever banks choose to do, their business customers must follow because that is how they communicate with the banks. This is what I deal with in Treasury Management. "Money movement" and the connections to that money movement.
Allow me to explain further on that. I previously worked for Wachovia in the cash vault. (If you're really behind the times, Wachovia was bought out by Wells Fargo I believe in 2009). In the cash vault they use a system called Glory! I eventually left several years later and then worked at Loomis as the Balance & Auditor in Cash Operations. They also used Glory. Fast forward 15 years later I went back to the initial cash vault to find that they were STILL using the same Glory system. This system was also how Fed shipments of currency could be placed.
What I'm getting at is, I would be very surprised if the Federal Reserve were the only ones going live this Thursday. Throughout my banking career I have noticed that whatever the Fed does, the banks will follow. That's basically the reason why banks close on Holiday's...because the Fed is closed. Banks are for profit, why would any company stop operations because of a holiday if they are for profit? Think about it. Now, could I be totally wrong on this? Possibly and that's going to suck if I am😂however, I have seen a lot throughout my 15+ year career in banking and we are finally entering a new era.
I work in Treasury Management for a global bank. I am also a Realtor @ Herron Real Estate in NE Florida. XRP!!!

Let's talk $XRP! A few of you have asked about price prediction, time frames, etc. While no one can predict price, I will say (and I think we all know this) the price of XRP cannot be cheap. What's more, Retail will be priced out of XRP at some point. I see a lot of non-sense online regarding "the price is going to jump and then crash because everyone is going to sell". While that may be your theory...here's mine.
Retail only makes up about 1% of the XRP space. By the time the Fed, banks, businesses, etc. start putting their money into it, that 1% of retail is going to look like a minnow in an ocean! That 1% will not fluctuate the price at all. A large quantity of XRP facilitates a large quantity of banks whilst high price allows for higher transaction with less XRP. There's only so much XRP. That is my opinion.
Times frames. Again, something that cannot be predicted however, with Fednow going live July 20th, I would assume that they cannot be the only one going live. Whatever the Fed does, banks must follow because that is how they communicate back and forth. Whatever banks choose to do, their business customers must follow because that is how they communicate with the banks. This is what I deal with in Treasury Management. "Money movement" and the connections to that money movement.
Allow me to explain further on that. I previously worked for Wachovia in the cash vault. (If you're really behind the times, Wachovia was bought out by Wells Fargo I believe in 2009). In the cash vault they use a system called Glory! I eventually left several years later and then worked at Loomis as the Balance & Auditor in Cash Operations. They also used Glory. Fast forward 15 years later I went back to the initial cash vault to find that they were STILL using the same Glory system. This system was also how Fed shipments of currency could be placed.

Why do I hold $XRP? This video should make it clear.

Create 100 billion XRP out of thin air.
Trust Us
During consensus, each server evaluates proposals from a specific set of servers, known as that server's trusted validators, or Unique Node List (UNL).5 Trusted validators represent a subset of the network which, when taken collectively, is "trusted" not to collude in an attempt to defraud the server evaluating the proposals. This definition of "trust" does not require that each individual chosen validator is trusted. Rather, validators are chosen based on the expectation they will not collude in a coordinated effort to falsify data relayed to the network 6.

When the shit gets rough in crypto this is when they come out of the woodwork. They lost their ass. They're freaked out. So they try to pump it on sites they visit every 3-9 months.
Not trying to be a dick, but this pattern has played out over and over. People got over leveraged in fake money. Enjoy the gains if you got them. Highly probable one didn't. It's okay. I'd frankly get out of the dumpster fire even for the few times it jumps.

Some facts...
If their is anyone that has been more transparent who has posted about crypto anything it's me. I disclosed when I sold most all my holdings in 2021 and besides sharing a bit about $XRP and that I would post when I thought there was something worth posting. Just to be clear anyone who has read the crypto posts know this would be the last place to try and pump and suggesting that is the case is just another personal attack and insult, I have traded
currency for 25yrs. and if anyone knows like I posted earlier retail does not or at most minuscule moves any markets.
It is more then obvious that the derogatory na-sayers posting don't read a bit about what was actually posted and shared and are either "by choice" totally ignorant, uninformed, foolish or "eat to much dick" you are what you eat they say, or are holding bags of underperforming tokens such as BTC or ETH.
Do you notice "they post without any receipts to support their opinions" but rather just direct or off-hand personal insults?
No you don't, not 1 single fact of refute. I challenge the posters who wants to call into question my motivations to actually bring something to the table that is any kind of proof and just not insults, which they simply can't do because it doesn't exist.

Is @Bitcoin still alive, or did the vaccine kill him?
I am seriously curious.
I am seriously curious.
positions but nothing to write home to mom about until last Friday. The token I have bought in mass is the only token in US with
regulatory clarity "and it isn't $BTC" which has literally 0 real utility and is bought with the idea of
store of value and never will be much more then that, that is if it can even retain that assumptive use case.
The Token I already owned and am buying in mass is $XRP, which on Friday received legal clarity that it is not a security.
Short analysis is now institution in the United States can buy and use this token, and they definitely will as are the gov., institutions and companies around the world are already doing so, but the real clincher is they will need to buy it in the open market with the rest of us. The company responsible for the creation of $XRP, Ripple lost a portion of the 2.5 yr law suit to the "SEC vs. Ripple" case if you are interested in the "what for's and whys" of the case.
https://ripple.com/
BTW $XRP is now the only token that has "legal clarity in the US" and was re-listed by the US exchanges Friday as soon as the SEC lost this portion of their case and legal clarity was given that XRP is "not a security" and the token has gained 11+ billion in Market cap since.
