I'm packing gold and XRP. I ought to think them, gold backed XRP. That would be world at least $1 per XRP right now.

It did, and I sold the ones I bought for $3! Not making the same error with XRP!

I'm just listening to the speech live. I think he is talking a XRP. He says Libre is going to be regulated to death and must protect privacy - which Facebook can't do.

I think XRP can get to the magic $589, but it will need wider use and adoption as a currency. Whilst there are BTC cashpoints etc, I don’t think BTC really cuts it, and increasingly the Lightning Network is seen as a massive failure. Eventually BTC will erode, even the current pick up in the BTC price is fake as mainly driven off fake USDT. XRP is ready to fill the gap and in practical terms works much more effectively.

Yes, to be honest Tether shouldn’t set the BTC or XRP price, it should just be real Dollars doing that. Totally conceivable for Tether to decouple from the Dollar. A bigger worry for me is this sort of stuff: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-05-08/crypto-exchange-giant-binance-reports-a-hack-of-7-000-bitcoin Really if you can keep crypto off the exchanges whilst not trading, then that is a good thing.

Well XRP appears in my Coinbase wallet now, but I don’t think I can exchange it or trade it. So I guess CB is just a wallet company.

All my XRP is on my Ledger Nano or Toast Wallet.

And higher!!!

I did find this screen grab from exactly 12 months ago:

I am fully aware of that!!! That said, it did hit over $100k daily volume previously. The current low volume is partly down to the fact that there was a coin burn (to remove hang over from the old original BTCI which suffered an exit scam). So quite a few of the exchanges will be back online soon with the new wallet. But yes, trading even at $100k is slow andi hate the waste of converting to BTC first.

That’s exacty my thought. I’ve made some great gains on small Alt coins, but when the sea is rough and the Bitcoin Titanic is sinking, it makes sense to stay on te XRP Super Yatch.

$XBI is a proof of Stake Coin, and you get rewards for either opening the Staking function in the wallet or for running Masternodes. Right now I’m earning about 200 XBI per day. Whilst I probably should have switched it when it got close to 60 Cents and I could have bought 60K XRP, I was a bit torn as the rewards are good. I might start selling the rewards from now, which would bag me about 150 XRP per day.

Agree. I’ve now got 25,000 XRP. That said, I am holding 60,000 XBI which originally cost me $300 and are now worth $15k, so I should be able trade some into XRP at some point. Guess the aim has to be 100k XRP.

Agreed. Thanks to playing around with Crypto, validator nodes and some GPU work which morphed into AI, I've elevated my decent £140k OTE salary to something closer to £300k. (I'm in sales, but super techy for sales). Thank you XRP and Ripple! Not just improving finance, but improving individuals finances by improving their skills.
