Someone already used these two pictures to poke fun at litecoin and ethereum but I took the liberty to throw in "my two cents". Just having fun! Don't be triggered with any issues you might have!

https://www.globaltechinsights.com/bithumb-hacked-south-korean-crypto-currency-exchange-loses-30million/ South Korean Exchange got hacked. & m worried about my investments. Because of such hacks market is become very vulnerable to loss.

So this is just another Twitter poll where XRP might win and get used. Fellow ripplers, we need to unite once more in order to boost our progress a little bit https://mobile.twitter.com/TapJets/status/996402253195079682 Vote XRP

As you can see in the picture below. I ran a 24 hour poll..With over 100 particpants.. I didn't define the poll in any particular way just a simple, "Which Crypto Coin Will Be Ranked #1 In 2020? As you can see Ripple was the overwhelming winner at 46%, which I thought was rather shocking.

Apparently the whole market is waiting. Prices are steady. Now it is the best time for some good news to push price movement up again. XRP could lead the way :)...what news could Ripple publish?

The crypto carnage has come to a halt for the time being, and everyone is busy assessing the damage done. The top digital currencies—Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple, and Litecoin—are showing an uptick after suffering severe damage over the last few days. Although it has brought some relief to see green on the screen, the question now is: Will cryptocurrencies recover to their previous highs? Will Bitcoin go back up together with the other top digital coins? To answer these questions, let us first recap the main events that led to this bloodbath.

Daily Litecoin News Update Cryptocurrencies wiped out billions from their market cap this week. What we saw on Wednesday was only a trailer. This horror flick is playing to a full house on Thursday morning. Top cryptocurrencies have just hit their new all-time lows in 2018. Once again, investors have the Koreans to blame. The steep drop in prices overnight resulted from a rumor that South Korea may be banning cryptocurrency trading altogether. Deja vu! First, there’s a rumor of a complete ban. Then, crypto prices begin to crash. Then, the government backtracks, taking a milder stance. Then, crypto prices recover. Read Here... https://goo.gl/9HjkwR

Here are the reasons why XRP will hit 1000 USD. 1. 150 trillion USD daily money transfer between the banks cannot be managed for a company who has less than 20 trillion USD value. 2. Transactions are easier. There are 500,000 USD bills, banks use only. So XRP will replace those. 3. 2030 world will be more criminal. A crypto currency will solve this issue, imagine there is no criminal activities possible since you can track the money. 4. For better future XRP as the USA based money should control the world. 5. Economically world needs freedom, for better economy for all world, and no more under bed money - because everyone will invest XRP- world economy will be super which will prevent world war 3.

Hi - I'm new to Crypto and I'm using Coinbase to buy Bitcoin. I'm then sending it to my Gatehub wallet and then exchanging for XRP. I noticed that during this exchange the fee was 20%. WOW. Is there a better/cheaper option? Is it better to buy XRP with other Crypto such as ETH or LTC? Any help/feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.

I just don't understand why things get so bitchy. The blockchain technology is awesome no doubt and has many uses, clearly. But let's be honest we are all here to make money, nothing else. Even in the short space of time since I joined here (middle of last year) I no longer see posts from a lot of contributors back then prior to the December Zerpening. They have cashed in their chips. Amazing - I wish it was me. This is all about making money, right? I'm not against Bitcoin (or any other ALT) at all. I wish I had invested in Bitcoin years ago when it was on my radar at $100. But I am thankful years later that it got my attention to revisit the crypto world and find XRP and this community. It could have been any coin so long as it makes me money. I'm sure that most here didn't really care for the same reason but we all ended up here! Many, from the posts I have read, are in to all sorts. That's great! I am a betting man, otherwise I wouldn't be here, but my hodling nature (and limited bank) doesn't allow me to do that. XRP/Ripple is the antithesis of what this was all supposed to be following Bitcoin's inception but that is exactly why I invested in XRP after getting in late(ish). Eventually I found a crypto that had huge potential because it embraced the world we live in, not what what it might be. XRP investors - let's try to take the higher ground, we will get there anyway. If you truly believe in your investment then whatever FUD you see here makes no difference. Hodl x

Hello everyone, Noob here, but please let me help you understand something.......I would like to share my absolutely true story of the last 8 days, as I have been trying diligently to acquire LTC and now XRP. Friday Dec 8 8pm eating dinner with some friends and a discussion about bit coin came up when they mentioned that they wished they had gotten in it a couple of years ago....I checked the value and it was 12k and seemingly over night watched BitCoin go from 11k to 16k seemingly overnight. a buddy of mine posted a message on Facebook Monday 18 around 1pm central that he was glad he bought some more Litecoin. This is where It all gets interesting. I literally ran to my computer and checked litecoin price and it was like an uncontrollably fire inside of me saying "get in now". So I messaged him where he bought it. he messaged back within seconds use coinbase.... bare with me as I try to paint the incredible frustration that follows and still to this day am trying to acquire more XRP which really helps me understand that there is many other people in my situation trying to navigate this crazy maze right now too.......... I'm a small business owner, a very tiny business. It's the week before Christmas and I am making a decision to put in 5K into LiteCoin (at the time just over $100)1pm central. 5k is literally a third of my cash on hand that I have in the bank right now....I share that to help you understand the eagerness and determination and desire I had to get in and get in quick.... I sign up and in to coinbase...which not an easy task... the verification process took me over a couple of hours to get in then I'm unbelievably frustrated that I can only deposit $750 from my credit card into my account....(LiteCoin is now at $149) My credit card company blocks my card purchase of $750 to coinbase because they think it's fraud...thanks Wells Fargo!!! It's 3:30 pm central. I'm scrambling to find out how to get more money into my account to buy LiteCoin.... I'm signing up for every wallet and exchange that I can get access to, meanwhile (still on hold with Wells Fargo Bank).... and every exchange site is under incredible stress and the verification process is incredibly long. I'm signing up for GDAX, Binance, Bitstamp, CEX.IO CoinMama (actually still trying to get verified by Coin Mama, and Bitstamp)...(and still holding with Wells Fargo) 4:45 pm central, I finally get clearance but can get only $750 minus fees into my Coinbase account and I finally purchase LiteCoin. I finally purchase 3.6 at $220. Meanwhile, (my wife thinks I'm going insane) I'm emailing and giving away my personal information left and right trying to get verified with exchanges so I can get 5K into an account to buy LiteCoin....Currently Still waiting on my verification from my bank and Coinbase to get ACH. So as I am watching the Lite Coin go up up and up, I'm getting ticked off more and more as I think about what could have been.... Spending the time watching youtube videos, I'm doing everything I can to find out about cryptocurrencies and how to navigate this crazy maze I come across XRP @ .35 and IOTA @ $4. and think to myself these are low priced coins, let me get my money in and buy these because the upside potentially could be better initially to double or quadruple my money. Let me pause here to say.....as someone who is brand new into this, do you know how incredibly frustrating it is to navigate this space? I mean I made a decision and while it is completely on emotion and impulse, but to not be able to pull the trigger because of the lag time to get set up and in position to make a trade even after making a decision to buy a certain coin and just watch them make a run....ughhh. anyway, I decide to buy XRP. I can't find an exchange to buy XRP with a credit card that isn't under heavy traffic and verified yet!!! So I find CEX which I can only buy with bitcoin. So while I'm trying to navigate and figure out how to get money into CEX to buy XRP it goes up up and up....and to watch that seemingly slip through my hands again very frustrating, I finally as of Saturday night...was able to get 1686 coins of XRP for around $1250. But am still waiting on verification from several exchanges so I can get another 4k into the system..... These are my thoughts, So why have I shared all of this? I got to believe that with all the attention that has been going on this week that there are a lot bigger fish out there trying to navigate this same process to get money into this system and buy some crypto currency.... it doesn't even matter what... there is such a frenzy going on right now to get money into the system that every exchange is bogged down with verification processes....I know everyone in my circle is about 4 days behind me in this process so I'm thinking that I have a good head start but I literally spent this whole week learning how to get money into the system how to navigate a simple trade, how to convert back and forth from dollars to Bitcoin to litecoin to bitcoin to XRP I have spent way to much on fees....but this is the wild west....it's the modern day gold rush and I really don't think that the people inside the crypto currency system can understand how many people right now want to get in to this.... and how difficult it has been this week to execute a measly 5k dollars. I can't even begin to imagine how difficult it is for larger deposits. This has literally consumed me this week. I just hope that I can get my money into XRP before it hits a dollar or higher.... I share to maybe help ease someone else the pain of other noobs in this space and also hoping someone knows how to get money into the system quicker that maybe can provide me a tip.....Happy trading.

Financial markets (bonds,...) usually goes up in december. What do you think it will happen in crypto world....bitcoin, ethereum, xrp, litecoin,...

Hi Friends, 2 days ago i tried converting 30 Litecoin to XRP. I use ShapeShift to convert them to my GateHub wallet. The Litecoin transaction was delayed so long that the time on the ShapeShift Order Screen barely expired. The funds sent from my wallet and never came back like they usually do. I contacted customer support at ShapeShift. A few days went by and i got a reply that said that the money was never sent to the address provided by the ShapeShift order page. In his email, Elliott, the ShapeShift representative, attached a URL link to (supposedly) my order. The order opened fine and i began looking a bit closer. I instantly noticed that the SEND TO ADDRESS on the order was slightly different. I think something fishy is going on so, i need HELP. First i have multiple photos to prove what im saying is true . 1. I have a picture that i took of the ShapeShift order screen exactly 24 seconds in to the transaction. 2. I have a picture that shows the sent transaction. 3. I have a photo of the link that Elliot provided where you will see that the SEND TO ADDRESS was somehow changed. 4. I also have a photo of a link that i sent to my friend of this transaction. This link now leads to a ShapeShift page where it says "THE TRANSACTION HAS BEEN SUSPENDED" CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME ?????? DID I GET ROBBED BY SHAPESHIFT ?

So I have been trading crypt coins for a while now. Sitting on many of them for the long hall. I had the NEO coins and I was so excited when NEO broke $50.00. How ever the fall came quickly and I was not able to cash out when the crash hit last week. Need less to say, I cashed out what was left of my NEO coins and rolled them back into XRP. Now there are many people out there who are stuck on this deal that the cryptocurancy is going to put banks out of business and bitcoin and other coins will be the only way to purchase anything. Me, well you have to have a bank to do most transactions reguardles of what the curency is. I have rode out the wave with XRP, and it is not that much of a wave. Well, OK so ripple gained 4000% in 2017. It looks like alot and it is a great Return if you dumped $20k into Ripple when it launched. How ever most of us are doing penny stock trades, $25, $50, $250. Etc... Myself, I have locked away a adequate amount of cash in to ripple. And if things go well by the year 2020, I could be sitting on millions. People are saying that ripple may not go over $5.00 by 2020. But we must remember that when Bitcoin hit the market people said it would never trade over $100.00. Bitcoin has no real direction, nore is it a real company in many people's eyes. How ever Ripple is a true cooperation with real employees and real backers. Think about this, in the start of the internet many people thought that eBay, yahoo, and aol and PayPal would just be another passing trend. And Amazon was just some guy in Seattle selling 2nd hand books out of his garage on a online website and no one thought twice that it would be the multi billion dollar cooperation that it is today. The big chain stores, Sears, Kmart, JC Pennys, and so on did not get on board with the web. They felt that they were secure from internet sales and that no one could put them out of business. And now days these big chain stores are shrinking and closing coast to coast. This is a new generation of traders and investors, and a new generation of people who do large transactions between countries. Swift trading is on the way out just like Sears and Kmart. So yes Ripple "xrp" can very well be the next $2k plus valued cryptocurancy coin by the year 2020. Remember to invest is to invest long term, And day trading is just a gamble like poker.

https://xrphodor.wordpress.com/2017/07/09/open-letter-to-brian-armstrong/ Blog entry number ... ?? This one is a "polite as I can make it" request to Brian Armstrong to add XRP support to Coinbase. I'm open to other ideas on how to get support for XRP on coinbase - I just think that it's too big of an exchange (at present, anyway) for us to ignore. Lots of investor money is currently flowing through there into BTC, LTC, and ETH, but not XRP! I think it's way past time. Please let me know what you think about the open letter, and of course, feel free to share as much as possible over other media!

There are two ways to measure speed of distributed ledger technology: block times and throughput. Block Times Ripple wins. By a wide margin. Source: ( https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/lightning-fast-raiden-network-coming-to-ethereum-blockchains-1471030245/ ) Quote fromJohn Whelan, Director of Innovation at Santander focused on blockchains and smart contracts: Source: ( https://www.quora.com/Bitcoin-What-is-the-fastest-blockchain ) Throughput Ripple Wins. By a wide margin. Ripple can handle in the tens of thousands of transactions per second. ( Source https://ripple.com/insights/ripple-continues-to-bring-internet-of-value-to-life-new-features-increase-transaction-throughput-to-same-level-as-visa/ ) As of April 2017, the transaction throughput of the Ethereum blockchain (without any other technology like "Raiden" layered over it) is 25 tx/second. (Source: https://ethereum.stackexchange.com/questions/1034/how-many-transactions-can-the-network-handle ) The only way thus far to improve the speed of Ethereum and Bitcoin is to use off-ledger transactions to conduct business, with the final settlement taking place afterwards. In this system, the transaction may be processed faster than the block times on ethereum and bitcoin, with the key differentiation that final settlement has not yet occurred. One such tool is the "Raiden Network." Instead of sending all transactions immediately to the blockchain (which is the main scalability bottleneck), the Raiden Network lets users privately exchange signed transfer agreements and secure deposits. I'm an Technology Architect, and my personal opinion is that this concept of "layering software on top of software" to solve inherent limitations in the underlying foundation is a faulty architecture, and points to a problem that should have been solved at the original technology's creation, not left for "somebody else to fix" later on. Ripple has no such limitations, and its throughput has been measured to rival Visa: "...To solve this issue, Ripple built their own Payment Channel specifically designed for XRP, the digital asset native to RCL. An XRP Payment Channel allows transaction throughput to increase to tens of thousands of transactions per second, bringing our scalability to the same level as Visa." (Source: https://ripple.com/insights/ripple-continues-to-bring-internet-of-value-to-life-new-features-increase-transaction-throughput-to-same-level-as-visa/ ) If you own XRP, you own the digital asset that powers the fastest distributed ledger technology in the world.

@tomb @AmericanXRP If you both watched the entire video you will realize a) XAGATE has a unique opportunity to potentially partner with Silver Bullet SIlver Shield to create an innovative alliance we are both part of the sound money movement (what an awesome typo now it is a proper thread now!) c) we are both part of the liberty movement d) how can you not see this? f) please watch TruthNeverTold's Son's of Liberty Academy then and wake up or watch the content on his channel an perhaps reread my content then f) study monetary history and quantity currency vs sound money cyclic rotation of free market dominance. Too long for the chat box of course. Gives us all an opportunity to properly discuss. Maybe get Chris Duane, David Morgan, Mike Maloney, @JoelKatz, @nikb @mDuo13 in here too with @Vinnie (??). The absolute best PR stunt right now would be Brad and Chris to respond to this thread.
