meegwell 210 Posted August 2, 2019 around 24 min - i think the second analyst question - they do a great job explaining the consumer vs. back-end sides of sending money cross-boarder and for the first time ever we can settle the back-end process as "near to instant as humanly possible" and getting rid of all the money "trapped in transit". Great stuff...the vision becoming reality. 5 2 GiddyUp, quetzalcoatl, Roaring_Twenties and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KarlHungus 330 Posted August 2, 2019 3 minutes ago, XRPboi said: I can’t see speculator action being very positive though. Speculation didn’t drive the price up much when MG was announced. Now that it’s live and there’s no spike from utility, speculators won’t expect gains from utility, and won’t buy in. Even if Moneygram loves xrp and competitors start jumping on too, no probe action from utility will equal no price action from speculators. If anything, the opposite will happen - people will see utility not driving price and jump ship. 1 2 1 1 Scout, RippleFan4124, Rutski and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If i understood Mr. Bob Way from his gracious time educating us on his patent, Xrapid via Market Makers WILL put upside pressure on price. He discussed this quite thoroughly in Bobs Book Club, yet i have not been able to track down his original postings. I don't think Galgitron is correct with this statement.

LiquidGoat 918 Posted August 2, 2019 Seems that MG said the right things as stock price is ticking up nicely even after quite a crappy market report. 2 GiddyUp and automatic reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does anyone have an explanation of the patent? I haven't been able to find one. If it would increase the price of XRP, why isn't Ripple using it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XRPage 739 Posted August 2, 2019 (edited) I don't see how speculation will drive price up if utility doesn't either when xrp is used as a medium of exchange. Only way I can see price going up is if people see XRP as a store of value Edited August 2, 2019 by AlvaroXRP 3 Scout, Spartaksus and ChuckN reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
