WuWei Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I just came across this article by investing.com on the finance.yahoo.com website. After reading it, I'm at a loss as to where on earth they came up with this. It's dated as August 22nd, 2019, and yet they assert: "It was the largest one-day percentage gain since August 23." This is bizarre to say the least, and in the article, they claim that "XRP had traded in a range of $0.26774 to $9.36570 in the previous twenty-four hours." Am I just dense and this is referring to some sort of futures trading? Any clarity would be appreciated before I drink anymore of my now "hopium" laced coffee.....

WuWei Posted August 23, 2019 Author Share Posted August 23, 2019 This is crazy - I just went to Investing.com's website and can confirm that the 24hr trading range did NOT soar as this article claims. After going back to the original article, I found this: "At its current price, XRP is still down 0.11% from its all-time high of $9.37 set on August 23." If XRP takes off tomorrow and breaks $9, I might wanna re-consider my coffee intake..... I have to presume that someone thought that this would be a fun way to stir up the "XRP Army."

WuWei Posted August 23, 2019 Author Share Posted August 23, 2019 (edited) Somebody's pulled a fast one. There's several other crazy articles listed as well: "Stellar Climbs Above 15.84462 Level, Up 100%." Somebody's Mom needs to chase them out of the basement for some fresh air.....

I'm going to be real huffy if Stellar is at $15.85 and XRP cant eclipse $10...Although, some of the sting would be partially offset by general price rises assuming the entire world doesn't see hyper inflation.

If XRP gets to $10, I won't care what Stellar is doing, and this account and every other crypto related account, that I have, will be shut down and I a will be MIA with a few pitchers of margaritas.

Godforce Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 It's true, there was a glitch on a japanese exchange and btc went to 0.something and xrp went to 9.something. A dude snatched up 48 btc at 0.35$. dr_ed, Sharkey and mike91 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw this last night 9 minutes after it was published on twitter. I took screenshots of the article. It must have been some type of error on their part, and I think they do have an automated system updating their articles. On their twitter account, they seem to publish an article every 30 minutes. dr_ed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
