Nekdanji zakladnik ZDA pravi, da sta BTC in ETH špekulativna, namesto tega podpira XRP

Rosie Rios - 43. blagajnica Združenih držav - je nedavno izrazila podporo XRP. Medtem pa namiguje, da sta Bitcoin in Ethereum v primerjavi zgolj špekulativno premoženje.

Rios podpira Ripple

Nekdanji blagajnik tweeted njene včerajšnje misli, ki navajajo, da ima XRP vlogo pri olajšanju čezmejnih plačil, medtem ko trenutnim vrhunskim kriptovalutam primanjkuje primerljive vrednosti.

Glavni namen XRP je olajšati čezmejna plačila, medtem ko drugi #Kripto najdejo svojo vrednost v špekulacijah. Najnovejša poteza Kitajske to prinaša domov. # Valovanje #ripplenet #Bitcoin

Rios’s mention of “China’s latest move” references the country’s recent reminder that digital asset trading has been prepovedana within their borders. This was the last in a long line of FUD emerging from the Chinese government, on the alleged basis that cryptocurrency is primarily used for money laundering. The announcement, like many before them, caused the crypto markets to temporarily fall.

Rios has supported XRP for months. She pridružil Ripple’s board of directors in May, calling it “one of the best examples of how to use cryptocurrency in a substantive and legitimate role to facilitate payments globally”. She has also pohvalil it for its “credibility” in comparison to Bitcoin, which she– like the Chinese– called “the currency of crime on the dark web”.

Ločevanje Riosovih trditev

Riosov nedavni tvit, ki je pritegnil veliko pozornosti, je vprašljiv na več načinov. To vključuje namigovanje, da Bitcoin in Ethereum (med drugimi kriptovalutami) najdeta vrednost le v špekulacijah, kar preprosto ne drži.

Bitcoin is now being Rabljeni as currency in El Salvador and is serving as a digial store of value for many major companies and individuals.

Ethereum je služijo the same purpose for other investors including Robert Kiyosaki, and largely supports the growth of the emergent NFT industry, as well as a large part of the entire DeFi ecosystem.

Rios also implies that XRP is special in its ability to facilitate cross-border payments, which isn’t the case in the world of cryptocurrency. In fact, Bitcoin’s implementations of the Lightning Network alongside Twitter’s recent uporaba of it are conclusive proof of others that can serve similar purposes.
