This is just the opinion of what I suspect is a “ white cis abled body privileged”. 😇

Yes.....me......all day ( and night) long living with 2 of them. Can’t get rid of them, they cost me more than XRP last 3 yrs. So yes, I really need XRP to go at least $5 to play break-even. Back to the charts before this turns into a US politics thread, lol.

I’m afraid we haven’t hit rock bottom even close, for both the disease as the financial markets, including crypto. Why I haven’t sold everything yet really wonders me, maybe an irrational hope, against all odds, I don’t know. -

Someone who puts a different name on a disease than the official name ( or even the most used informal name) is someone with an agenda. -

Bro???? I didn’t say China is recovering ( but yes, maybe they are), I only stated that other countries should learn from the experiences in China and Italy. Why twisting my words and change it into a whole other topic?? -

I’m a little more pessimistic than Goldman however. Still many countries are underestimating the impact of exponential growth of a ( new, unknown) infection. Taking actions on actual info instead on extrapolated projections ( and experiences in China and Italy). -

FYI: or skip if it is TLDR greetz RS Goldman Sachs hosted an Investee call where 1,500 companies dialed in. The key economic takeaways were: 50% of Americans will contract the virus (150m people) as it's very communicable. This is on a par with the common cold (Rhinovirus) of which there are about 200 strains and which the majority of Americans will get 2-4 per year. 70% of Germany will contract it (58M people). This is the next most relevant industrial economy to be effected. Peak-virus is expected over the next eight weeks, declining thereafter. The -
In the Netherlands any ownership/ votingrights in a company that exceeds 3% has to be declared to regulating authorities and must be made public. There’s a good reason for this rule imo.

Generally speaking: having excellent qualifications may be a good start, but are in no way a garantee that one is always right. Incompetence exists at all levels and isn’t just reserved for people with poor qualifications. Even Einstein wasn’t always right ( quantum mechanics just wasn’t his thing, lol). Better look at factual arguments and not take opinions for granted because of qualifications.

Maybe or maybe not, there’s no way of knowing until the “ endgame” . At which pricelevel a balance between demand and supply will be established is the question.

Producing goods on stock before there’s nearly enough demand ( and with the uncertainty that there ever will be) isn’t a very “ Lean” way to do business. Push instead of Pull. Maybe there was no better way, but this comes with high risks and has led many enterprises to bankruptcy.

Utility kicking in?
Ripple-Stiltskin replied to Lambosexual's topic in XRP Trading and Price Speculation
I was merely responding to the suggestion that the cause of XRP’s rise last week is utility kicking in. It isn’t imo, whole market is up, low caps, big caps, every cap. So for now it’s the good ol’ manipulation and speculation kicking in. -

I’ll play the party pooper for once: here’s a view on how utility effects the price for many coins last week: -

You should have stopped there. The rest doesn’t make much sense. -

That’s exactly what I thought of Apple Music. It’s not a product, it’s a pool of music. Yet they charge me € 10 a month for dipping in the pool now and then. They sell on demand music. -
UFC Star Ben Askren: I Think XRP Is A Scam
Ripple-Stiltskin replied to bitcoinisking's topic in Other Press
Link shows posts from 2013. What’s the relevance of them in 2020? We all know Ripple is a scam for several years already😇 ( that’s $ 550 in the pocket for me, lol) -
The Importance of Donating Blood
Ripple-Stiltskin replied to PatriciaC's topic in Coil Posts and Fan Submissions
O jeez, another fudster. The tell tale signs are there: strange username, attacking gold members, talking about negative prices, not staying on topic ( blood donation), using weird words ( “idgit”), etc etc. -
The Importance of Donating Blood
Ripple-Stiltskin replied to PatriciaC's topic in Coil Posts and Fan Submissions
I would be afraid to infect others with the XRP virus. Wait...........that would drive the price up, wouldn’t it? -
I believe there’s no evidence whatsoever, for either of the scenario’s, but yes, there has been some , what I see as, red flags last 6 months. I’m not religious either, but I have some hopium stuffed in a little box, which I open every week a few hours or so to take a peek at it. Not be become a millionnaire ( that’s so 2017, lol), but to make a good profit on my investment. And then I close the box and real life takes over.

Ok 3 scenario’s: The good: they have big strategic plans which include XRP and will cost a sh*tload of money. An IPO raises that money and will fulfill their dream of #XRPthestandard The bad: they don’t care about XRP, as it is a lost cause or at best a very tiny niche. But their software company needs money to grow bigger and dominate the software market, hence the IPO The Ugly: they don’t care about XRP nor about their company, they just want to cash out and living la vida loca. And several scenario’s in between.

Brad Garlinghouse from Davos: IPO a natural evolution for Ripple
Ripple-Stiltskin replied to LeonidasH's topic in Press
There are various ways of performing an IPO, but in general it’s not always about founders cashing out. It could be raising money in order to realise big strategic plans ( take-overs, enormous special investments that kind of things). So let’s assume they have really big plans which require a lot of money. Depending on the sense and prospects of these plans, this would be a good thing. For Ripple. If those plans don’t include XRP in one way or another then our investment is doomed to stay at pennies. But if that’s the case then even without IPO the future wouldn’t be bright for XRP. S -
