Asheesh (@ashgoblue) is absolutely correct. Methods for distribution key, and also predicated on underlying REAL users, REAL use cases, REAL problems. @Ripple! Conversely, if proliferation simply can’t be engineered, perhaps something wrong with the underlying!
JPM Coin may well be internal test to understand coins like #XRP $XRP. Inevitably, JPM will run into hurdles & reg. scrutiny that @Ripple team is foremost expert on. 3 outcomes: a) banks prove they can go without XRP b) banks adopt XRP c) banks see #crypto settlement as fraud.

#INEVITABLE - Institutionalization may take time, and "longer than expected" - but these types of core infrastructure (whether you think this v0.1 or v1) is necessary for continued development of blockchain + #crypto ecosystem and #digitalasset#proliferation
FTC as a data-broker clearinghouse, with data brokerage registration requirements, this is a BIG concept.
Largest hard/software infrastructure incumbents lobbying for congressional legislation on data sovereign, is a very notable directional catalyst.
Tim Cook making the concise case for #datasovereignty - one of the great opportunities for blockchain and tokenomics to prove their capabilities! This issue must be resolved for long-term, sustainable technological advancement. #crypto#blockchain $APPL

I think most smart people know that reading widely-read books from your profession (e.g. business, tech) is useless. But people get stuck reading obscure, dense books in their industry instead. Reading basic books from other professions (e.g. architecture, science) is underrated.
