The banks are NOT the good guys. Never have been. They created a cartel by meeting in secret, forming the @federalreserve. They created the perfect business model: socialize risk while privatizing profits. When they make greedy and bad decisions - the government bails them out. My political opponent @EdMarkey loves the banks and they love him. He voted to bail Wall Street out while Main Street went bust. It’s also why he voted no on the Genius Act and why he’ll vote no on Clarity. Help me defeat them:

Bloomberg: Sold Out in India, Panic in London: How the Silver Market Broke
- India’s largest precious metals refinery ran out of silver stock for the first time in its history
- “It’s never been like this before. The demand this time for silver has been humongous”
With MiCA now rolled out across the EU, nations like Luxembourg have the opportunity to take a global lead when it comes to developing their local digital assets industry.
It was great to meet with Luxembourg Finance Minister @RothGilles alongside @s_alderoty and other @Ripple colleagues. The conversation was extremely positive and I came away feeling that Luxembourg really understands the opportunity ahead.
At Ripple we stand ready to support Luxembourg's efforts as it establishes itself at the forefront of the industry 🇱🇺
We won! 🎉
At last weeks #PAY360Awards organised by @ThePAssoc, @Ripple was victorious in the Best Initiative with Digital Currencies or Assets category.
This award underscores the real-world utility of digital asset-enabled cross border payments, and is a huge endorsement of the work we are doing to advance the technology in the UK, Europe, and around the world.
Thanks to our clients, partners and industry peers, including category sponsor @ThunesPayments, all of whom have helped us get to where we are today.
A massive shoutout to my superb colleagues in the UK and Europe who are working tirelessly to build the future of finance. This recognition is for you!
D Schwartz, this mighty community wouldn't exist without you - nor the inventions of Proof of Association, the DEX, smart escrow, continuous auction in an AMM... I could go on! I deeply respect your ingenuity, integrity, humor and humility, which you demonstrate daily (starting my first week at Ripple when you patiently explained merkle trees to me). You've always been ahead of your time, so I'm excited to see what you tinker into existence next to glimpse into the future - once and always an XRPL dev.
🚨 Pay attention to this.

You are reading this right.
FDA’s war on public health is about to end. This includes its aggressive suppression of psychedelics, peptides, stem cells, raw milk, hyperbaric therapies, chelating compounds, ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, vitamins, clean foods, sunshine, exercise, nutraceuticals and anything else that advances human health and can't be patented by Pharma. If you work for the FDA and are part of this corrupt system, I have two messages for you: 1. Preserve your records, and 2. Pack your bags.
Hinman’s 2018 speech was a fairy tale that a token could magically morph between security and non-security. SEC’s lawyers told Hinman that wasn’t the law and his speech would create market confusion. Friday’s Binance decision again tries to bury the ghost of Hinman.
Creating more confusion: “Insisting that an asset that was the subject of an alleged investment contract is itself a “security” as it moves forward in commerce and is bought and sold by private individuals on any number of exchanges, and is used in any number of ways over an indefinite period of time, marks a departure from the Howey framework that leaves the Court, the industry, and future buyers and sellers with no clear differentiating principle between tokens in the marketplace that are securities and tokens that aren’t.” pp. 42-43
No such thing as morphing: “One cannot argue with the general proposition that once a thing is deemed to be a security, it remains a security; the thing has not changed its nature. [The question is not whether the token] is a security [the question is whether], it was offered as, or sold as, a security.” p. 38

🚨🌎🇬🇧 Holy Crapballs
Did a former UK Prime Minister just call out the Deep State & Central Bankers?
Steve Bannon to Liz Truss - “are you a conspiracy theorist?”
Truss - “what I found was once I got to the top of the tree (UK Prime Minister) is that the Governor of the Bank of England COULDN’T be sacked - but the PM could”
Central Banks & those that own them have forever ruled the World - people are finally realising…….
It’s been exactly one week since I shared undeniable Evidence that the @ethereum Foundation, @VitalikButerin@ethereumJoseph were directly involved in the GateCoin Exploit, resulting in the theft of over $450M of $ETH.
To date, NOT 1 DEVELOPER OR CRYPTO ANALYTICS FIRM has denied my allegations or even offered up another theory of what might have happened.
Why? The answer is easy.. the evidence is that clear and Incriminating.
They can only ignore the facts, not dispute them. The information has almost 1M impressions across the internet, and because of it existing in the Public Domain, The @CFTC@DOJCrimDiv@SECGov@DHSgov will have to act. I, a proud American citizen, acted first because I believe it is our DUTY to stand up for what is right in this Country. Who will act second?
