1. "XRP triples in a week, how is the ecosystem meme being speculated?"
@zaddycoin
I find it difficult to express my pessimistic views on XRP as a long-term cross-border payment solution in words, let alone its CEO openly disparaging Bitcoin multiple times. The list of XRP's issues is just too long to waste time listing them. Just a year ago, mentioning XRP on Crypto Twitter would likely get you mocked or even shunned—sorry, Raoul. But the price movement has changed everything, and now the XRP army is finally having their moment in the sun, today is their "Victory Day."
