Hahaha Cripple has 158 confirmed partnerships, but only 21 of them are testing or using the XRP token.
What does this say about Cripple when 86% of its partners don't even want to use the XRP shitcoin?
List of partners is here: http://rppl.info
Cripple bagholders BTFO kek.

First off, congrats on anyone who invested in it in 2017, you made mad gains and I'm not hating on that at all. Second, I think Brad is a good speaker and Ripple in general is professional.

However, XRP is blockhcain version 1.0. It is nothing more than a glorified Excel spreadsheet. It literally isnt even a crypto-currency. XRP the token is not even used either. Most of the supply is owned by the team and market cap is already way out of hand when it comes to a token not even used.

When oracles and smart contracts fully develop, there will be no need for XRP, since all it is is a middleman place holder for cross bank payments. When oracles and smart contracts really get going, they will clear payments real time directly, without the need for a middleman. They are essentially a placeholder right now before the real blockchain/smart contract/ and oracle tech is realized and implemented. Ripple was 1-2 years left of relevance, unless they completely redo everything about their business model, which they are too late on.

Don't be dump biz.

Looks like a Spanish bank doesn't like how Ripple works: https://www.finder.com.au/ripple-leak

I've always heard from someone who works in big 4 Australian bank that their trials with Ripple have been disappointing too, which is why they are sticking with SWIFT.

Bad luck Ripple.
