ZzZerper 89 Posted October 13 Curious development. I always assumed Hodor was a team of people subcontracted to the Ripple marketing department. @CryptoEri You are as prolific as Hodor, are you going to retire or reveal your identity next? 3 2 2 Hodor, Cooliozxrp, Freaky and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peanut56 787 Posted October 13 you can see crypto eri's face in a lot of her youtube videos. I've never looked for her actual name ect as I never though it to be that important, also I try to respect other people's privacy. It is a small way that I try to uphold the United States Constitution along with the Bill of Rights. 6 Roaring_Twenties, XRPboi, Hodor and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Undershoes 19 Posted October 14 (edited) @Hodor Leave pass denied. Oh man. The honest response is to say this is a huge discouragement. There really arent any other voices as clear as yours in this space. You contributed so much, so well. This feels like a death in the community. I know you said you will still be around - but your blog man... it was our voice. #gutshot Edit: October fools, right?

Hodor 21,706 Posted October 14 Final message! XRP Chat is where it all begin, so it's fitting that for this avatar, it's where it ends as well. It's been a journey with countless twists and turns, and try as I might, all the details have melded into a chorus of voices of the XRP Community, who, at their core, are all pushing for the same thing: Change. Sometimes I wonder how members of other coin tribes feel about the project they're supporting. Does it inspire them? Do they believe in it past their surface financial goal of 'getting rich' off of it? Because, for XRP, it's more than just a 'good stock pick;' XRP represents the technology that delivers on Bitcoin's promise, without the environmental destruction. Without the limitations of scalability ... and so much more that I have to resist reneging on my decision for one more, long, convoluted rant! You get the picture! We're here for the investment (XRP), but we're also here because we believe in the Internet of Value, and pushing this technology forward. It can change the world for the better, and not just as part of a slick corporate advertising campaign; when people can send money to their family in seconds instead of days, it can significantly improve lives for millions of people. And just look how the XRP is changing the face of crypto communities, with its teamwork, awards shows, clubs, social media presence, and charitable fund-raising. These are all extraneous to the IoV and XRP, but they also work to give us a legitimate feeling of community. And with the developments in the last month, my right-brain, intuitive side, which normally performs a lesser role in my day-to-day activities than my methodical, step-driven left-brain side, took the reigns and decided to make a key decision; how do I want to contribute going forward? I could continue to struggle to cover all of the increasing onslaught of news items, or I could turn and survey the growing ranks of our collaborative team of supporters and let somebody else 'take a turn' at the front. I could take up a keyboard and mouse once more, but this time to create new websites and applications. Ah well, I'm getting repetitive of the content in the blog. My apologies for being temporarily self-indulgent, but I know my companions on the forum will not judge me harshly about my last post. At least I hope not. Hope to be back soon, with some announcements of a new project of my own! 23 33 1 ZerpTidalWave, jbjnr, Ripple-Stiltskin and 54 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manateehunter 1,505 Posted October 14 @Hodor I fully support your decision, as much as I've enjoyed your posts and blogs, they would carry more weight without anonymous avatars.

Hope to be back soon, with some announcements of a new project of my own! So many good things to say about what distinguishes XRP from everything else in the blockchain community: I like this: XRP represents the technology that delivers on Bitcoin's promise, without the environmental destruction. Without the limitations of scalability ... and so much more that I have to resist reneging on my decision for one more, long, convoluted rant! and this: not just as part of a slick corporate advertising campaign; when people can send money to their family in seconds instead of days, it can significantly improve lives for millions of people. ( for me one of the pleasures is to dream of one day being a multimillionaire who can step in and help others reach their dreams - I know you once said you would use the money to help a lady who comes to clean your home. This sort of idea give me real pleasure and is a reason I continue to add to my investment every month) Edited October 14 by Julian_Williams 3 1 Roaring_Twenties, Hodor, Truckdriver and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Best of luck, enjoy Malta and thanks again for all your work! ... while me continues these humble XRP Briefs - quite different from the master's work!

eksarpi 68 Posted October 14 18 hours ago, peanut56 said: https://coil.com/p/Hodor/Cessation-of-the-Hodor-Blog/BBo_l6Yoo Goodbye, to an OG, and hello to who you are. If Hodor chooses not to reveal his identity in relationship to his blog, I'm sure some will try to decipher who the user is. Let the game begin. edit: I meant to say that, when Hodor begins to write under their real identity, as stated in the blog, that if he/she chooses to say "hey I was hodor," then great, if not I'm sure some people will try to figure it out through writing style, use of logic, and so on. O.G.= original gangster. In modern terminology it refers to someone who was at the beginning of something. Thanks Hodor for what has been done so far and for what you will still do for XRP' ecosystem. 1 1 Hodor and Julian_Williams reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
