This makes a lot of sense, and there are two quotes that reflect the message well.

"A rising tide lifts all boats."
With more attention coming through, first with Bitcoin and now Ripple, there will be more curious minds becoming aware of the crypto space and diving into this rabbit hole.

“The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new.”
I truly believe if you want have a revolution, the best way is to build the new and not waste energy on tearing down the old. The reality is, if your creation is TRULY better in delivering value, then people will gravitate towards it.

Here's mine😀, No matter the shape of the stone thrown, it sends ripples in all directions.

nice.

and as well... a "ripple" is still infinitesimally small in comparison with the larger tsunami that is crypto as a whole...

Hmmm, nice one

Thanks for this article . Some much needed clarity on the issue which has just exploded these last few days.

Nice post it’s true once you realize there are three coins ( ripple, btc, Eth) it makes you want to look at who could be the next to emerge. I think this alt coin boom is a result of hedge funds entering the space. Hard to charge 2 and 20 hodling bitcoin.

Not bullish on the bankers coin! Not sure I agree. I would still want some exposure there. :-)

good luck when they freeze you out of your account.

Inb4 conspiracy

Maybe you’ll learn why they say be your own bank, but I think most people prefer being corporate servants rather than free individuals.

It was very interesting post about Ripple. You have taken a great effort.

15 cents not long ago crypto is crazy

I really don't know enough to add to this, but I DO like your common sense approach to this subject, without the hysteria!

Happy new year BTW!

same to you. ;-)

I don't agree with this

And meanwhile, we'd be wise to set an example of a maturing outlook on the space as a whole and get rid of the attitude that it's a war between the bankers and crypto-heads.

Great write any. But unlike peace, it only take one party to create a war and trust me the banks are afriad of cryptos...and they should.The attack from the banking system has just been to blatant to ignore

It can actually hurt the development of the crypto space if people get too idealogical. Ripple can be a bridge to a more ideal situation but for now, it's a finished product that actually works for the needs of the banks while others don't (except steem? maybe) Regardless, if they invest in ripple and transfer some wealth to themselves while it goes up and then use the gains to build tech that works without needing the banks. Who cares about ripple and banks then lol
