Do you mean the volume as in trade volume, payment volume or both. I was following it for a while and haven’t kept up with it too much lately

I believe that September volume was more traders getting involved in a short amount of time. I wouldn’t rule out xrapid volume (possible testing before launch) but I guess we will never know for sure

They will most likely try to get someone else to work on this. But it sounds like a good use case

Siam Commercial Bank was stated to using xrp back in q4 2018. I don’t think it was xrapid but definitely used xrp. And I guess euro exim bank will be the first on xrapid. So that should make for 2 banks using xrp in some fashion

He must have shaved it when they hit 200 partnerships!

Here’s the thing when a community gets pushed around for over 5 years what do you expect. I mean most of us are tired of their crap. So is he saying that we can’t defend ourselves. I’d rather fight through the FUD then let it beat us down. Now there are some overly aggressive members but again you hit someone with a stick enough times they are gonna fight back.

I don't know if it really matters whether it's on open market or not because they will be using xrp in payment flows daily. Whereas an open market purchase would pump the price a little and be used daily.

This is exactly what I was thinking. Now they got 200 institutions and an explosion of news. It's a good day

I could have sworn ripple stated that they wouldn't make announcements until they hit 200 institutions. And now we have some news. Very interesting!

Thanks for the information I didn’t know about the monthly fee. But I’d still love to see it in the US at some point. Always good to have exposure to as wide of an audience as possible

I think you just answered my question. So US citizens won’t be able to use this platform at launch right?

Patience is key

Ok I admit it all the I was the ripple riddler, kichiro, bg123, crypto bear. I just wanted to hype everyone up so I could cash out a billionaire!! But alas I will come out with a new riddle to blow your mind!! *sarcasm is a great tool*

Hey if it were you and me with that kind of xrp and we could gain interest. You wouldn’t have to tell me twice. But...in the case of ripple the company their 1 job is to strengthen the xrp market. And unless it gets distributed then that cannot be fulfilled. And if people found out that ripple was making money from collecting interest from their large holdings. Lots of investors like myself would think very negative of xrp and likely bring up that ripple only cares about the money.
