    Several articles state xvia does not use xrp. This is not true. XRP is sent through xvia, which will trade it for the currencey needed, and settle it in the account payment was sent to. David Schwartz is describing this in the link.

    TIPPING POINT: Ripple (XRP) Adds Bank Per Week in Quick-Fire xRapid Inroads

    Posted: 17 Mar 2018 01:45 PM PDT

    Last year at BTC $8000...

    Posted: 17 Mar 2018 07:01 AM PDT

    Last year around November 18th when Bitcoin reached $8000, XRP was at .22 cents.

    Despite downtrends, we're ahead from where we started. Keep that in mind as we continue to progress.

    Ripple's new chief market strategist: Crypto regulation will 'separate the wheat from the chaff'

    The Red Sea

    Posted: 17 Mar 2018 09:37 AM PDT

    Just an idea that I want to share with my fellow XRP holders,

    The red sea that we see now in the market is expected and I personally saw it coming as soon as I heard that governments will discuss cryptocurrencies in G20 meeting which will happen in two days, thus many holders are selling in interceptions of negative news and thinking they will buy low when the news of that meeting is published.

    However from what I have been reading around there is more positive news than negative in the media hence I don't believe the news once the G20 meets will be bad for us

    Germany is pro crypto Russia want to regulate crypto by mid year So many other countries are shouting for regulations, focus and read again "Regulation" and not a wide ban

    There is a huge difference between regulating something and banning it

    Now look at the market it reached 800B few months ago with a negligible holders, imagine how much money will be injected in cryptos once there is something clear for the majority of people, lets face it and be honest, the majority of people won't even think of investing or buying cryptos with no regulations, it is the human nature of avoiding risk. And think of how many companies that will invest loads of money once they have clear regulations and can invest in a legal way

    I'm nearly 60% in negative now but still I believe that if regulations were introduced we will see a new age for our crypto market, the market cap will go way way above ath and I won't be surprised if it reached 5-10 trillions in the next 2-3 years post regulations

    All the best to all of you, stay calm and don't lose the mental battle

    A Living Ledger Update: Address search, TX counter and switch to rippled web-socket.

    Posted: 17 Mar 2018 12:40 PM PDT

    I just pushed a new update of A Living Ledger, with the following new features:

    • Address search: A lot of people wanted to be able to search addresses in the current visualization. Done! Search for an address and get in visually highlighted if it is present.
    • Transactions per seconds: Another highly wanted feature were an transactions per seconds counter. It is now available (replaced it for the address counter)
    • Using rippled web-socket: The Data API is rather buggy and not very well suited for the real-time visualization (polling). That said, I implemented a connection to a web-socket to s1.ripple.com. For some reason this web-socket connection transmits a lot of more transactions than the Data API did. This means the action is even crazier now ;)
    • URL-Parameter to control some settings: A user on twitter used the website as a live background in windows. What a great idea! To make that more convenient it is now possible to disable mouse-input and hide all but the visualization using URL-parameters: http://alivingledger.com/?hide-all=1&disable-mouse=1

    Thanks for your former feedback. If you have any suggestions, wishes or problems, don't bother to comment :)

    Enlargement of Ripple Remittances by Thai Bank Encourages Ripple to Invest in Startups

    Posted: 17 Mar 2018 06:58 AM PDT

    2 Days left. Monday 19-20 March

    Posted: 17 Mar 2018 02:22 AM PDT

    Whilst most are staring too closely at the elephant, some of us have taken a few steps back and are admiring the beautiful landscape that the elephant inhabits.

    2016 was the year the G20 financial summit in China was held. Its main objective was to set out and promote digital financial inclusion. A digital infrastructure for the modern digital world where businesses and financial institutions have easy access to each other anywhere in the world.

    At that time they released a one page PDF setting out principles of such venture (http://www.gpfi.org/sites/default/files/G20-HLP-Summary.pdf). Arguably, these principles at the time could not be realised as such infrastructure to be built in old age thinking would have cost billions if not trillions.

    Fast forward a year later, Ripple starts to come out of the shadows and actively promote its blockchain technology that hits every single one of those principles. Fast, secure, cheap and with a tiny carbon footprint. A financial highway for the modern age that can be accessed by anyone with a smartphone and the cost of setting up such system has little to no obstacles for businesses and financial institutions.

    An unshakeable consensus ledger that anyone can run and built on trust. A blockchain designed to work with the current system and not circumvent them. Know your customer? Anti-money laundering? Ripple has you covered.

    Ripple has set the game pieces and made its first move and is staring directly at this year's G20 financial summit proclaiming "Your move". 1. http://www.gpfi.org/sites/default/files/documents/2014_g20_financial_inclusion_action_plan.pdf 1. https://www.gpfi.org/publications

    I forgot about crypto, and it has changed my life.

    Posted: 16 Mar 2018 11:35 PM PDT

    I recently [Dec. 24th'ish (noob status)] deposited $1000 USD into coinbase to purchase ETH. I then took that ETH to evercoin to exchange for XRP. =) My first crypto experience/purchase. It felt good, like I was on course for greatness. I boarded the bitcoin train. I'm in. I'll be rich in no time. I had obviously been reading about cryptocurrency. Which was largely in correlation with bitcoin's explosion in mainstream.
    I read a lot, searched every crypto sub on reddit. Searched google. Searched everywhere. Talked to people. Found people who had no idea. Found others who pulled up there "phone, digital" wallets, and exchange apps to show me they we're in as well. Always the most unlikely people. Honestly, I didn't even know much about the whole deal then, and not much more now. I came across Ripple, and XRP during one of my search projects. I saw something I hadn't in any other digital currency, a simple form of image. It wasn't that I had to dig deep into other cryptocurrency to find anything out, it was that it was presented to me. But, that is biased. I like XRP because there is a goal. And there is a plan. A goal without a plan is a wish. This is why I am writing this post. Because I put another $XXXX in without question. The more I came to know Ripple, its brand, and its plan. The more it became less important to me that I got rich riding a wave. Waves always break and they always return higher and stronger. I was checking my phone all the time to see my gains. My losses. It consumed me. Now, I check an exchange maybe once a week or every other week. I forgot to think about it all the time, and the only reason I can do that is because I believe in Ripple. I can hold because I believe in Ripple. And it feels pretty good.

    I know super lame, but its for the people who might be about to dump. You should hold.

    At what price point did you buy into XRP?

    Posted: 17 Mar 2018 06:21 PM PDT

    I have invested some money in Ripple over the last ~2.5 months, and while I haven't looked up the exact numbers, I think my average buying price for XRP is about $1.25.

    ATH benefit

    Posted: 17 Mar 2018 02:03 PM PDT

    One of the benefits of a $3+ all time is the fact that as XRP rises again, media won't say it's up 37000% so far this year.

    People want to invest when something is low and although the all time high was nice, I feel like it scared away new investors.

    I still think the market as a whole has some room to fall but once the bull comes back, new investors will enter it will take alot of gains before we even come close to this year's high.

    Either way, it's a long term hold for me given the revolutionary way that ripple has positioned itself within the fintech sector. I want to see where this trains goes.

    December 2017 bull run

    Posted: 17 Mar 2018 08:40 PM PDT

    Was the bull run of December 2017 that went into 2018 simply banks testing XRapid? What if banks we're testing the system and they didn't want to pass Bitcoin as it may cause mass hysteria in the market and decided to lower the price back down artificially as they plan to pass Bitcoin as #1. You heard it here first.

    About Ripple exploring new use cases for XRP

    Posted: 17 Mar 2018 02:50 AM PDT

    The other day I came across an article from TechCrunch titled "Ripple wants to invest in startups that can put its XRP cryptocurrency to work". The closing paragraph really caught my attention:

    The big question for Ripple's expansion into alternative uses for XRP is whether it can find the right partners to give it some meaning. For now, Ripple looks to some like an asset that's seeking justification for its valuation.

    What do you guys take away from Ripple's intention to invest in start-ups at this point? On one hand I welcome the idea as the more use cases, the better for XRP liquidity; although I can't help it to recall the 'Peanut Butter Manifesto'.

    Also I'm not sure what to make of this move and whether it means something in terms of XRP (xRapid) main use case and its prospection by banks and intended stakeholders. Any thoughts?

    The article I'm referring to is this one: https://techcrunch.com/2018/03/13/ripple-wants-to-invest-in-startups-that-can-put-its-xrp-cryptocurrency-to-work/

    RIPPLE (XRP) - "The Goliath That Never Was"

    Posted: 16 Mar 2018 11:20 PM PDT

    Trying to understand what will drive the price beyond speculation..

    Posted: 17 Mar 2018 09:32 AM PDT

    Given that banks can use xRapid without holding XRP (preferable for them as less risk), in a scenario where all banks were using xRapid but not holding the token, where would the buying pressure come from to drive the price?
