yahoo profile XRP

[playerxrp]

hello all. I'm  a big fan of Ripple and have invested about three weeks ago. unlike most of you here, i'm a novice when it comes to crypto currency.  But just from a small experience with this technology i see so much potential. 

i'm also a banker and so investing in ripple made the most sense to me. One question i have is the yahoo profile.

Ripple is a distributed network which means transactions occur immediately across the network - and as it is peer to peer - the network is resilient to systemic risk. Ripples aren't mined - unlike bitcoin and its peers - but each transaction destroys a small amount of XRP which adds a deflationary measure into the system.  

i don't understand the underlined comment Is this a weakness of XRP that will hurt long term value?

No. The amount of xrp burned per transaction is negligible even over the course of decades.
