What does Ripple (XRP) actually do? I keep reading that it's supposed to increase liquidity of funds and minimize fees, yet I still don't understand how the fuck they'd apply that to real life and allow you to buy anything with it. Sorry if I'm dumb, pls explain to me.

Apparently XRP/Ripple is going to be the only legit crypto if things like thight regulations will happen. Its widely recognized by central banks and governments and regulators.
Just in case ,bought 10k .
Could be big. And the brainlets argument of supply and "muh-marketcap"isnt relevant in this one.

I can see you don't know a lot about networks and network protocols. It costs a lot of money to make these systems run securely, and even so they get hacked. Take the following REAL example that happened a few(6-10) months back.

>visa Bangladesh calls bank of Bangladesh
>we transfer 80M usd form John Company to mr Gook ok?
>ok dear sir we do i see confirmation on screen is all fine tanks sir
>money disappear to Bangladesh
>2 weeks later
>lol John Company don't exist wat
>but money gone
>lol hacked and scammed

Visa had to pay 80M from their pockets. What banks are sending to each other is like you paying for sthing in the store by sending a manager an email with the sum, the manager going into the bank and show8ng the email, getting cash for that number you wrote.

Now, it happens once in a while that the store owner didn't really get an email from you, he just wrote one himself from a throwaway email and disappeared to Argentina afterwards with 10M cash.

You guys are delusional...

Banks dont need ripple,
And even if ripple brought advantages in timing and costs, its more likely that banks will make their own versions of it.

Banks are powerful institutions and they don't need and don't like to rely on third party entities.

Like any other fucking crypto in the world. Why would banks use ripple if they can use any other coin for this purpose and even can create their own crypto protocols, so the transactions wouldn't be that volatile and dependent on some random whale on a chinese exchange?

you need to understand both sides of the coin and think rationally, don't let yourself be blinded by all the propaganda.

I know ripple is trying hard to insert it self in a area very restricted. Their token is much faster than any other crypto. The fees are extremely cheap. And its my choice to transfer between exchanges. But i will repeat what i said.

XRP (the actual token itself) is a relic, and it was very tacked-on to begin with. If they could get rid of it they would. Seriously just look at the ripple google group discussions from 2010 when these decisions were made. Someone posted about bitcoin and the rest of them were like OMG WE NEED TO HAVE A CRYPTO CURRENCY.

That was back when Ripple was something very different. It was designed as networked lending platform for small communities. Of course, banks saw what a threat that would be to their business model and so co-opted ripple to become an inter-bank payment system, something that SWIFT does perfectly already.

You are buying fossilized bags of a dead project.

literally nothing. XRP is a shitty company token. It will be useless to cryptocurrency speculators. The only reason to hold it is to try to sell to some dumber fuck. It's a private company token. It's value in relation to BTC will go down considerably in the future as people realize that there's nothing they can do with it. In the mean time, you can make mney by convincing dumbos that XRP is legit, because "muh naks will use it". the fact is that no bank is going to buy XRP from you and if Ripple needs more they can just make more. Ripple may dump XRP in the market to get more money to fund their tech. Take your profits while you can and only hold public decentralized coins like BTC/LTC or whatever, because they will not suffer inflation and are not controlled by a company or banks. That's the real value of cryptocurrencies. Let Ripple shills hold their bags. They think XRP will,ever go back to ATH levels in BTC value. HAHAHA. Sad, desperate cucks... lol

If you think banks are going to abandon their tried and true system to go to a token transfer ledger, then you don't know how these dinosaurs work. Ripple has only pumped because normies see it as a "penny crypto" and have no idea what a market cap is. The slightly more informed think that banks are going to buying 6 gorillion XRP off the exchanges to transfer money every day, when to use the network, they will only need about $100 in Ripple per year. The only good argument for Ripple I have seen here is that if regulations come to crypto, XRP is in a position to profit from it. SWIFT going away is less likely than crypto replacing all banks and currencies
