I wonder what narrative will take the credit when the final ABC correction in BTC kicks off alt season?


An Elon Musk tweet?
The lawsuit gets settled?
They release news that the central banks that have been testing the XRPL are going live?

Is dropped of the first page a royal title like "Duke of Earl"?
Maybe Elon Musk should tweet that statement and a cause cataclysmic financial event. On second thought maybe not, you stock boys are notorious for $hitting diapers full when the market "crashes" 1.5%.

This reminds me Monday morning I need to call my bank and ask them why they allowed me to deposit fools gold from foreign exchanges into my bank account in the form of US dollars.

I guess when Ripple finishes making fools out of the SEC they will take my fools gold.


LOL!!!!!

Billionaire Ethereum co-founder says he is quitting the world of cryptocurrency due to personal safety concerns

The billionaire co-founder of Ethereum has announced he is quitting the world of cryptocurrency because of personal safety concerns.

Anthony Di Iorio, 48 - who has had his own security team since 2017 with guards following him wherever he goes - will sell blockchain firm Decentral Inc, sever ties with other start-ups he's involved with and focus on philanthropy instead.

'I don't feel necessarily safe in this space. If I was focused on larger problems, I think I'd be safer.'

Di Iorio founded Ethereum in 2013 and its token, Ether, now has a market value of $225 Billion.

Ah well what do we have here? Anthony Di Lorio (Co Founder of Etherium) quitting the world of crypto currency a week before the deposition of William Hinman ex director of the SEC?

The same William Hinman that declared Etherium was not a security when he was at the SEC in 2018, The same William Hinman that was receiving a $1.6 Million per year pension from Simpson Thatcher, a member of Ethereum Alliance?
