Conservative here. Bought a Model 3 long before Musk supported Trump or bought twitter or any of that. Don’t believe EVs should be mandated, but mine is fun as hell to drive and super convenient. Liberals are retarded. Maybe they’ll all sell their precious Teslas for cheap to get rid of the stain of Elon, and other folks who arent political about every thing can enjoy them.
I’m with you 100%. My favorite libtard recently was Alyssa Milano getting rid of her Tesla because she didn’t want “to be associated with Nazis.” She replaced it with a….wait for it….Volkswagen. Literally built for actual Nazis. :rotflmao:

The short version is that XRP is the intermediate currency in a super high speed cross border exchange platform. That platform allows institutional sized exchanges to occur in milliseconds at a minute fraction of the cost of SWIFT. That’s why all of the buying action over the last 3 months has been largely institutional or governmental and the price has been artificially suppressed through off-exchange direct buying. That’s also why Ripple launched RLUSD stablecoin and created the platform for RLEUR and other CBDC stablecoins.
XRP, because it is finite, is priced at whatever the need for liquidity is. So, a $1M transaction will need 1,000,000 XRP @ $1 or 1,000 @$1,000. That’s what will drive the price of XRP. That’s an oversimplification but is directionally correct.
Trump and team met with the Ripple CEO often over the last 6 months and as recently as last week at Mar a Lago. It’s also completely transparent and all of the players are known so it’s probably going to be part of the “American Digital Asset Reserve” Trump has been talking about.

XRP is basically “buying stock” in Ripple
No, it’s not. It’s the exchange medium that provides liquidity for cross border exchanges at an institutional volume.

I’m always amazed that people will bash XRP without understanding even the basic utility of it. This isn’t a meme coin pump. It’s a ton of liquidity from institutional investors flowing in and it’s just the start.
re: New Here . My first post on this forum. Crypto?

Utility crypto is a good place to start since there are actual uses for this in a new digital financial system going forward. There are a few good investments still available: XRP, XLM, XDC, HBAR, etc.
Meme coins are straight up gambling and “the house” pulls the rug out most of the time.
BTC is a store of value (like gold). Good growth potential but not explosive.
Best advice is start searching tutorials (not clickbait) on YouTube.
Also, if you do end up holding a decent amount (to you) of crypto, take it out of the exchanges and into a cold wallet.

So, I’ve been paying attention to the crypto path he’s putting us on. It seems to me we’re going to have a strategic reserve of Bitcoin, but also XRP, XLM, HBAR. They’ve been setting up the tokenization of real world assets (gold) on blockchain. Since the release of RLUSD, they can back the dollar with tokenized real world assets and trade Federal Reserve fiat currency for Treasury notes. Then, the values of the cryptocurrency goes parabolic, effectively wiping out the Federal debt by allowing us to pay down everything with RLUSD. Best of all, the Fed goes away and the Constitution is restored.

Those GenZ boys voted overwhelmingly for Trump. Gen Z also makes up 40% of our all volunteer force right now. They are our hope for the future. They are the bounce back from the Millennials like Gen X was for the Boomer II’s. We don’t need a draft, we need fewer wars.

There should be a 64 team league with four 16-team divisions geographically. frick conferences. As an LSU alum, I like some other SEC schools but I hate the conference.
