Take the time and read this.
You will understand why Ripple is the best!


For years now the Bank for International Settlements (BIS), International Monetary Fund (IMF), G20, BRICS, and the Financial Stability Board (FSB) have all been working together on developing the best alternative to the role of the USD as the primary reserve asset used in the global monetary system.  The challenge has been to find a supra-sovereign asset, which is an asset not owned or anchored to the domestic economy of any one nation, with enough global liquidity to function as the base, or bridge asset, for the full global framework.

The USD, and the British pound before, has been a drag on the international system almost since its rise to full prominence in 1944.  The use of a domestic currency as the bridge asset in a global system ensures that the demand placed on that currency will expand the money supply far beyond what the domestic economy can sustain.  This is what happened with the USD and the symptoms are around us everywhere.

America went from having the world’s largest trade surplus in 1944, to now having the world’s largest trade deficit.  Global imbalances based on USD accumulation in the foreign exchange reserve accounts of central banks, and inconsistent exchange rate arrangements between the USD and the domestic currencies of other nations, are the fundamental challenges which need to be addressed.

The nations and institutions, who have been working on correcting these imbalances, which includes America, were considering an expanded use of the Special Drawing Right (SDR) of the IMF.  The SDR was created in 1969, and was meant to be a basket of predetermined domestic currencies, like the dollar and pound, which could be used to provide liquidity during global crisis.  The crisis of course would be caused by the imbalances created by the international use of the domestic USD.

Following the SDR was the development of OPEC and the petrodollar arrangement between Saudi Arabia and America to ensure all global energy sales were transacted in USD.  The SWIFT system of cross-border payments was implemented to facilitate the expanding use of the USD.

These are all important monetary facts to understand, because what is happening in the world now around crypto assets and cross-border payment improvements, are a direct response to the inefficiencies and imbalances which have contributed to a one sided distribution of wealth in the world.

It’s just as hard for some to wrap their heads around the world which is quickly emerging on a day-by-day basis, as it is to understand the complex nature and history of the monetary system which we are currently living under.  This is why I spend so much time finding new ways to write and present the same information.  Everyone has a different way of understanding the information.

For the last 5 years I have been writing about the SDR and the need for nations and global institutions to come together and engineer an alternative to the USD.  The SDR, being the best test case scenario at the time, was promoted by the IMF, BIS, and China as the dollar alternative.  But the SDR needed almost a complete overhaul to make it liquid enough to meet global demands.

We are now experiencing a crypto renaissance as blockchain potential is being fully realized around the world.  Central banks and commercial banks are openly talking about developing their own ledgers and crypto assets.  Think about that for a second.  It means that there will soon be a crypto version of the USD on its own Federal Reserve ledger.

That’s the thing many people also don’t understand about ledgers.  Ledgers are the new banks.

As my fingers move across the keyboard there are huge plans unfolding in boardrooms around the world. These plans are incorporating the fundamental ingredients required for the alchemical transformation of the international monetary system.

Since at least the 1600’s (perhaps as far back as the time of the Phoenician Empire) something I call the Crown Beast has been moving wealth around the world from empire to empire.  With the establishment of the first central bank in Amsterdam, this power has utilized the concept of reserve currencies to build the pathways and corridors for wealth and value to move from location to location.

The Dutch held the reserve currency during the time there was a Dutch Empire. The Spanish held the reserve currency during the time there was a Spanish Empire. The French held the reserve currency during the time there was a French Empire.  The British held the reserve currency during the time there was a British Empire.

America has held the reserve currency during the period which has been undeniably defined as American hegemonic and unilateral world dominance.

At the end of each period the Crown Beast, like the alchemical ouroboros, devours its own tail. The thing to understand about the ouroboros is that the tail, which represents the past, the old, is now hidden inside of the new as it vanishes inside the serpent.  But it is the same as it always has been.  The lineage of empires and reserve currencies, and the wealth which transitioned with them, are the ouroboros.

It’s worth pointing out that the ouroboros is not just represented as a serpent eating its own tail, but is also represented as a figure eight, or symbol of infinite. This figure eight is also being used to represent the artificial intelligence singularity.

Based on the above understanding we can make the determination that the transformation of the USD into a crypto version would have the same allegorical meaning as the ouroboros.  The owners of ancient wealth who have been pulling the puppet strings of the business, banking, and academic establishments which have built up around each empire and fiat currency, will now manipulate the USD under a crypto version which will be on its own ledger.  The forthcoming USD ledger will have to interact with other ledgers, with ledgers being the new banks.

But first…

Another esoteric symbol which is worth considering is that of the phoenix, or rise of the Phoenician Empire from its ashes. Most readers will have a working understanding of the phoenix symbolism, but applying it to real-world events, or applications, is grossly overused.  So it is with caution that I reference the yearly cycle of Bitcoin as it crashes and burns, only to rise again to ever greater heights.

Bitcoin is at the core of the blockchain and crypto world.  It was the first of its kind.  Some are suggesting that Bitcoin could be the new reserve currency which replaces the USD.  There are huge challenges with that, but maybe we are not looking at the full picture.

The change which is just about upon us will be so radical that the previous concepts, such as reserve currency, and foreign exchange reserves, as well as capital flows, will be completely redefined, or will no longer be in use.   We just assume that there will be a new reserve currency.  But what if there is no need for a reserve currency?  What if there is no need for foreign exchange reserves?  What if capital flows no longer flow, but integrate?

The case uses for Bitcoin under a whole new crypto monetary framework could breathe new life into the original blockchain asset.  Both Bitcoin and the USD will persevere for the time being, but neither will be capable of providing the function which a new global crypto monetary system will require.

This is where the crypto asset XRP by Ripple comes into play.  XRP will be capable of providing cross-border payment services measured in seconds at only fractions of a cent.  What reserve currencies have been doing for centuries, XRP will do at thousands of times the efficiency.

Considering that ledgers are the new banks, the interledger protocol of Ripple should create a lot of excitement as the one bridge function which connects all other ledgers and allows for value to move around the world.  As such, the interledger is the new version of the reserve currency in the same manner that ledgers are the new banks.

The new global crypto monetary framework, or the castle, so to speak, and the wealth within it, will be managed and protected by the interledger system, with XRP serving as the bridge asset in a new exchange arrangement which will eliminate the imbalances and inefficiencies associated with past fiat reserve currencies.

Those business, banking, and academic interests which have moved from empire to empire will no longer have control as the fully decentralized XRP interledger expands.  Not even Ripple will have influence or control over the interledger once more non-Ripple validators are added.  Each ledger which joins the interledger can have its own validator.  This would be the distribution of fairness within the architecture.

Consider, if decentralized ledgers are the new banks, then by default of definition, the interledger would be the decentralized World Bank which makes it all possible. Except in this case, no one nation with a dominant reserve currency can control it through hegemonic business and banking practices.

While a decentralized XRP guards the castle gate, the new crypto USD and Bitcoin, and those who attempt to control and manipulate both, will not be allowed to corrupt the new global crypto monetary system and cause an unfair, undeserved, and imbalanced movement of wealth and value to the places which convenience them the most.  The full system will be protected by the XRP interledger through blockchain sword and spear.

It is inevitable that each nation’s central bank will develop their own ledgers and hold other cryptos in what are now called the foreign exchange reserve accounts.  China wants to exchange crypto RMB for crypto USD? It will do so through using XRP as the exchange asset.  The Federal Reserve wants to hold Bitcoin in its own foreign exchange reserve account?  It will have to exchange crypto USD for Bitcoin first by using XRP as the exchange asset.

XRP will be the bridge asset which serves to connect all assets and ledgers through the interledger protocol.

The unpopular truth which most do not see during this early time of adoption is the total dominance which XRP will attain in the future.  With payment apps and a whole new micropayment industry emerging, there will come a time when needing anything other than XRP will be forgotten.   Shush, don’t tell the Crown Beast!

Ripple has a huge capitalization , i think it has a good perspetcive at future. You can invest in it about 10% of your funds.

I will choose Ethereum, and I think I won't buy any tokens when the price of bitcoin is unstable. But if the price of bitcoin starts to stabilize, I will consider buying the Ethereum.

You prefer Ethereum with the other coins you mentioned. Ethereum you think has great potential for more growth. This is a smart contract Blockchain and more applications will be used on the network that will make it more. Etherum is a good platform that offers smartcontracts and d-apps, a very stable lithecoin has faster block confirmation that Bitcoin and Ethereum are indeed a good ridicule for payment

Ethereum has the greatest practical application, so ETH has the greatest potential for further price growth. Therefore, among the altcoins the most popular and in demand is Ethereum.

Regarding Ripple and Litecoin, I do not quite understand. Because until now I still pursue and study Ethereum as altcoin that I like besides Bitcoin. For you, if you are ready to buy Ripple or Litecoin, just go ahead. Given Litecoin is also being talked about.

experts say that Litecoin is the promising coin, so I think it is a good choice for investing

if i choose ethereum, because cohere ethereum and platform are very strong and tend to be stable,
i am sure ethereum will be great like bitcoin in the future

I advise you to keep buying Ethereum anymore.
I think Ethereum has far more advantages than Ripple or Litecoin.
Ethereum is a strong coin, Ethereum is a coin that can last up to this moment in the world of Cryptocurrency.
I see a lot of coins emerging in the Cryptocurrency market but Ethereum is able to survive and become a superior coin in the Cryptocurrency market.

ETH is best coin in crypto market don't compare with XRP,LTC with ETH because ETH is the ruler in crypto market after BTC and more ICOs depnded by ETH and its updated project so better to invest on ETH 

Yeah, from all those coins mentioned, ETH still stands out. Litecoin is not bad considering a lot of things are going on for it, but for only those that care to know, Litecoin is a good coin as well as it has strong fundamentals as well.
Am not really a supporter of ripples but it is a great coin anyways.
Etherum is my top pick

I'd pick ripple if I were you. now the rips are becoming very popular in a series of banks and various financial institutions, this suggests that in the future, and may become one of the most popular cryptocurrencies.

Better to buy ethereum than ripple,
if the ethereum need not be doubted because the future is very promising,
especially if we invest in the long term and possibly the price of ethereum can later rise

I think that Ethereum is the most reliable. But I heard a lot for Ripple.
Ripple I think quite promising. Maybe I'll think about buying this coin.

Ethereum always 10 steps ahead because there was a really good project and it was constantly improving
I think it's definitely ethereum still.

Indeed, ETH and LTC are the most popular and the most demandable currencies. They are relatively safe for investments.

true they take this currency cause they may have to knew it for that this currency would be some of the best choice specially of making some profit to earned for and for the currency that they can actually to hold for in a long period of time , cause they see some great things that among of some altcoin can never had this for.

Already can be sure that ethereum is the best Altcoin of these three coins, but it does not mean Ripple and Litecoin ugly. all have their respective advantages. it's just that Ethereum is stronger and more users than Ripple or Litecoin.

I think ripple always contradicts the principle of blockchain but if the purchase is the right buyer, for myself prefer eth to be used as a purchase than other coins, where eth is more stable and more leverage.

Don't purchase RIPPLE, otherwise, you support centralization and bankers! This coin contradicts all principles of blockchain and the community! There are plenty of variants to earn your money without purchasing ripple.
