Yeah, we all knew that. We just need the market as a whole -read: retards- to hear it from a source like SEC to finally kill off XRP. Or at least stop normies from buying that shit because "it's only a few usd now, it could go to 20k like BTC we'll all magically be millionaires".

Finally.

The crypto market was literally manipulated to make a few people lots of money. That's the only reason the market exploded like it did, because some people knew they could make an easy fortune off of the gullibility of the crypto scene. Anyone else who already had bitcoin was just lucky to be taken along for the ride.

It has all the hallmarks of a scam and it's always had all the hallmarks of a scam.

More and more news will come out on this in the future as governments across the world start digging into the details.

Mind you, I'm not saying blockchain is worthless, it's a great technology. IT's just that cryptocurrency is nowhere near as valuable as people are currently paying for it.

Crypto is speculative and there is nothing wrong with that, just like most stocks if not all.
You will see some crazy shit, it might not happen in 2 years or 5 but it will happen and crypto will be the only deflationary currency out there people can buy with their fiat which will continuously lose value that will maintain or increase in value and allow them to buy/ trade etc with ease.
The reality is crypto is the only deflationary asset that is easily transferable and tradable, gold is nice and all but you can’t send gold across the globe to pay for goods and you’re not going to walk around paying with gold coins, silver etc.
The clock is ticking, the debt is rising, the paper is being printed as we speak, we can only delay the inevitable for so long.
That’s the value of crypto, that’s what caused btc to take off.
Smart contracts and distributed ledgers are amaizing and be the next technology revolution alongside AI smart contracts powered by AI and oracles could settle most of not all transactions, claims etc in seconds at a much lower cost than now, that’s cool and eventually might be worth trillions, it might not be eth or any of the coins in existence that doesn’t matter.
Crypto will go on, when the next economic crisis hit and it will hit, much harder than 2008, because printing money and racking debt to give liquidity to banks won’t worth anymore because the crisis will be the printing.
It will replace fiat.
Might not be any of the cryptos in existence now, it might be a crypto backed by the government, who knows but the reality is crypto is the future.

It was America threatening it kek, nobody else. And Ethereum is made by a Russian, while Bitcoin is made by an Australian (Craig Wright). Most shit in cryptos is non-burgers. I know burgers love to claim everything, but seriously less delusion thanks.
