If you hire someone.
Then ignore what they say.
Then tell them what to do.
And they do it
And it fails.
Then you blame them for not hitting your goals.
You should be fired.
Goes double for business owners
Years ago, I remember both BTC maxis and Link Marines calling XRP a "banker's shitcoin".
Today, BTC loves Blackrock, and Link is bootlicking every banker in sight at Sibos while bragging about following "what banks want" instead of what innovation demands.
I have no issue with BTC nor Link, both good coins, but let's get real - it was never what Ripple was doing nor what XRP could become that they had a problem with.
It was always fear that Ripple and XRP would succeed.
Regardless of the current narratives from the same people who have delegitimized themselves for complaining about banks and XRP for years, only to go and try to do the same thing, XRP will succeed.
👏 Congrats on this outstanding achievement @Ripple!
Ripple was announced as an official partner of the “cross-border payments interoperability & extension taskforce,” a subgroup within the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) Committee on Payments & Market Infrastructures.
It’s been less than a week since the decision dropped, and I’m still overwhelmed with gratitude for (and hugely proud of) this team.
An unequivocal win for Ripple and for crypto in the US.
That’s the bottom line.

Given today's ruling that the sale of XRP on exchanges is not a security, @Gemini is exploring the listing of XRP for both spot and derivatives trading.
HUGE congrats to the #XRPCommunity! We are thrilled with the news announced today 🥳
💚 We are proud to have supported & stood by the #XRP community. We are your home for $XRP & let's continue to stick together!
We said in Dec 2020 that we were on the right side of the law, and will be on the right side of history. Thankful to everyone who helped us get to today’s decision – one that is for all crypto innovation in the US. More to come.
The most important part of this ruling:
“XRP, as a digital token, is not in and of itself a “contract, transaction[,] or scheme” that embodies the Howey requirements of an investment contract.”
This is a now a matter of law (not up for trial.)
