Article was pretty decent on supporting the case that XRP will not be classified as a security, although the argument didn't go all out to provide compelling evidence. The decentralization point made was very weak in that it didn't point out Ripple bringing online more non-Ripple validators, or the fact that a small number of Bitcoin miners have over 51% of validation power.
