  @IProbablyKnowN1 @RippleyMoon @jesse_hynes @JohnEDeaton1 I’m not being paid. I actually lose money doing this and Youtube but do it because I have a good time making the videos and because the XRP community is so appreciative and desirous of information. I am also very interested in crypto and learn a lot here.

• From HigherManas:
  

  @CryptoPennyCO SEC lawsuit is actually a strong indication #XRP will indeed be the bridge. As far as I’m concerned it’s all about taking XRP from Brad & Chris while putting gov’t controls in place around how the escrow will be used. Why bother with all of this if XRP was a dud? Seems obvious.

• From XRP_OWL:
