Thanks m8 

After this "small dump" Ripple will hit 42000 in about one week, breaking all records. You heard it here first ..

We tried for a few years to force banks to use a public ledger. We encountered a lot of opposition and only limited success (compared to where we are now -- we did get several banks onboard, which was completely unprecedented at the time). So we listened to our customers and built a system that doesn't require them to use XRP but eliminates all the technical obstacles to them using XRP as soon as it makes sense to do so. That got us a lot more traction. Now, FIs are actually much more interested and willing to use crypto-currencies. So we may get them using XRP faster than we expected.

This should also be good for bitcoin. The software we sell to banks can use bitcoin as an intermediary too. We believe we can make XRP competitive on a level playing field. I would argue that the market cap and trading volume support that claim even without significant benefits (yet) from us directly promoting XRP this way.

The problem with getting a bank to use a blockchain is not the blockchain. That works. The problem is getting all the other stuff -- compliance, business rules, strategic alliances, integration with existing bank systems. So that's what we're working on. Every bank that adopts Ripple will find all those barriers to adoption gone. Then we can target XRP to strategic corridors and grow from there.

Notice that we had to go to court to do it, just like anyone can. If you have bitcoins at, say, Poloniex, someone can sue Poloniex to have those bitcoins frozen or given to them.

whoever sold under 17k and chased a pumped coin..better not start crying here....they lost XRP  lol

xrp is the fast crypto around, they will use it in some forms....
nobody said the banks are using XRP, we say they using the tech ...but no bank has said they are not using XRP either
if anyone of these finance institutions told us they are using it today...xrp would be over $10 each ...im sure they are buying quietly, where else does $4bill in a few hours come from?
+ sbi are only listing 2 coins on the new exchange, XRP and btc, the market that they have is huge, and lots of dif use cases
keep up the research and decide , dont follow the crowd, follow your brain

ps...could you please answer one small thing for me...i asked before..what do regard as long term hodlin, a few weeks? 
im curious to what you think. thanks m8

Why would we need this https://ripple.com/company/careers/all-jobs/#xrp-markets-manager than?

The tech seems good, team seems alright, but people keep pointing out that XRP is not needed for the ripple org, and that banks can easily create their own means that hypers were previously attributing to XRPs capabilities? 

every person that has hodled long term btc,eth,xrp is very happy....what do regard as long term hodlin, a few weeks?
you should forget what everyone is hyping, concentrate on the fundamentals, dev team and tech, you will be happy and not feel foolish.
i hold btc for 5yrs lol, eth for almost 2yrs lol ive only had XRP for 2months
gd luck m8 in any decision you make

I'm still hoping that after monday it will spike again, I also put my BTC into it at 0.000186 and (ashamed of this) 0.00022.
If I get to break even again I will be gratefull so going to play the HODL game a bit and hope for the best.

I actually sold off all my ETH at about 88 for XRP, so that the conversion was ~$.385.  I guess it was a really really terrible move.  I feel quite awful about it now, as having done a bit more research it seems like more consensus is that holding long term isn't actually going to produce the gains I thought.  At the time everyone was hyping "it's heading to $1!", now I feel foolish
Lots of stories like this I am sure.

last 2 posts are awesome

Probably he bought at ever first spike @ 4k and sold @ 2.5k and now looks @ 18k and understands on how his life is miserable.

There seems to be some kinds of weird, almost fetish-like desperation with these trolls... I really don't get it... why are some people so miserable with their own lives they want to try and shit in everyones' cheerios?

You such dumb-ass, posting disputes that was back in 2015, where dirt was brought out of house. You are pathetic. Much better vision on history given here: http://www.coindesk.com/bitstamp-court-1-million-dispute-ripple-jed-mccaleb/

The same day, the complaint states, Ripple Labs moved to purchase 96,342,361.6 XRP at a cost of $1,038,172. Ripple Labs later told Bitstamp it bought the XRP “in order to avoid and mitigate irreparable harm and damages".

More over, XRP where frozen by BitStamp due to dispute.

Never could understand what stimulates such sick idiots to post nonsense. Though, story shows on how much this guy lost now.

FINCEN, IRS?

You are legally owning XRP? Sure, but a large public freeze will wake up sheeple so epic dump starts and you are all affected...

Here, Ripple has frozen someone's assets already, so they have practise...good luck when the first terrorist, Iranian bank or darknet portal uses XRP....

Once the transaction completed, however, Ripple Labs demanded that Bitstamp use its gateway power to freeze McCaleb’s account and prevent him from withdrawing the actual cash.
Ripple Labs then requested that the transaction be reversed — it wanted the $1,038,172 returned

this article is a couple weeks old, but I thought it had some good points on the importance of holding over trading in the current market (not that I know what Im talking about).
