XRP: To the Moon… Eventually 🚀

Now, Vincent Scott – a man who clearly spends a lot of time thinking about moving things called ‘money’ around – has declared XRP to be humanity’s “best chance.” Which is a bold statement. One suspects humanity has slightly more pressing concerns, like remembering where they put their keys, or avoiding pigeons. But who are we to judge? 🤷

He’s also noted, with the weary patience of someone explaining thermodynamics to a goldfish, that legal clarity is rather important. Apparently, things work better when you’re not constantly arguing with lawyers. A novel concept, really.

Licensing, Acquisitions, and Other Corporate Shenanigans

According to Mr. Scott, Ripple (the company, not a ripple in a pond – although the analogy isn’t entirely lost on us) is busy making all the right noises: licensing, buying things, making friends in high places. All this, naturally, is to prepare for a ‘huge demand’ for XRP. One pictures tiny XRP tokens frantically polishing themselves, anticipating the crowds.

He suggests the real kicker isn’t the price, but the usefulness. It’s like a really fancy wheelbarrow for digital value. Makes you think, doesn’t it?

XRP/XRPL is the best chance we got

We see Ripple the company making all the moves to drive demand and solidify themselves with licensing, acquisitions, and relationships

We know the laws are the goalpost

We understand the concept of it: that XRP is backed by its use to…

Economic Upheaval and Political Grumbling

The idea, apparently, is to make fraud harder, banks less smug, and settlements…well, speedier. Who doesn’t like a speedy settlement? Unless, of course, you’re a snail. And if countries manage to hold fewer reserves because things are cheaper, well, then things get interesting. Financial balances might wobble. And wobbling financial balances, as anyone who’s ever tried to balance a stack of pancakes knows, is rarely a peaceful affair.

Naturally, someone, somewhere, will disapprove. Scott points out that disrupting the “existing power structure” is generally frowned upon by those in the existing power structure. Shocking, isn’t it? Expect resistance. Lots of it. Probably involving sternly worded letters and possibly tea.

A Chorus of Opinions (And the Usual Disagreements)

The internet, predictably, has opinions. Nenad Stojkovic thinks Ripple is a “serious financial company” (a rare breed in this particular corner of the internet). Scott agrees. Rare indeed. Like finding a polite troll.

SonOfRichard believes Ripple Prime might do the trick even without new laws. Optimistic! Scott, however, remains a firm believer in the power of actual, legally-binding rules. Because, you know, that’s how things generally work.

Someone named Tommy Raz questioned the leadership. (People always question the leadership.) Scott defended them, suggesting misunderstandings and misrepresented words. It’s a messy business, this truth thing.

I find the #XRP vs ETH debate, and who will outperform fascinating. Certainly Ethereum will fairly soon explode, however, I am coming back to this XRP/ETH chart. Take a look where the bounce occurred and what happened when XRP bounced from that support (twice) in 2017. Also, the…

Market Musings and Predictions

Meanwhile, CryptoBull (a name that hints at a certain…enthusiasm) thinks Ethereum might have a surge, but that XRP will win the race. The market, rather like a particularly indecisive dragon, has been flapping between the two. ETH bounced 9%, XRP climbed 10%…before both decided to take a nap. 😴

But fear not! According to Scott, it all hinges on regulators and lawmakers getting their act together. Rep. French Hill suggests the CLARITY Act might actually happen if the Senate plays ball. Which, let’s be honest, is a big ‘if’.
