• From steve46166200:
  

  Spoke to my Bank Manager today, face to face, asked about Ripple and XRP. His answer was, Head office has told us not to discuss it until regulation are in place. End of conversation. I was very surprised he’d even herd of them. We’re so early. 😎

• From XRPcryptowolf:
  

  #XRP monthly candles closed in green for two consecutive months in a row and the last time that this happened was back in 2017 right before $XRP skyrocketed from around 20 cents to over $3 dollars so I’m extremely bullish on #XRP finally having its bull run in 2020

• From UpholdInc:
  

  After fervent public commentary: we’re delighted to announce that Uphold is supporting the Spark Token Airdrop. You’ll receive Spark Tokens on a 1:1 basis to the amount of XRP you hold on December 12, 2020 – the ‘snapshot’ date.

Ensuring That Our Digital Future Is a Sustainable One | Ripple

A fully digital future is one that would instinctively rely on digital payment assets like cryptocurrency….XRP is fundamentally a much more sustainable asset than the likes of Bitcoin or Ethereum, only consuming a scant 0.0079 KWh of electricity per transaction.  A major reason why XRP is so much more sustainable than other cryptocurrency is that all XRP tokens currently exist, meaning no additional energy is required to make more of this asset….Put simply, a digital future that works for all must also be a sustainable future.
