XRP (Ripple) exploding, rate is going crazy?

the investigations from the SEC is exposing everything publicly, there is really zero fundamentals on this crypto ... its only purpose is to make the 2 owners rich and apparently so far they accumulated over 500 millions out of it ...
 
Cryptocurrency exchange Bitstamp said it’s halting XRP trading and deposits for all U.S. customers on Jan. 8, 2021, because of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s recent filing, alleging XRP is a security.

U.S. customers will be able to withdraw their XRP even after trading is halted, Bitstamp said.
Other countries are not affected, Bitstamp said.

so game over for XRP ? or ... buy the dip ?

this is typically one of those event where FUD is at its peak and buying then could be a win ... or zero ;)

as a reminder the SEC cracked down on EOS end of 2019 and they got away with a slap on the hand (about 25M) ..

unfortunately I strongly believe XRP has absolutely zero fundamental ...


btw just entertaining a thought here ;)

I made some money on XRP back in 2017, I had no fucking idea what they were trying to do (they probably didn't know either) but the currency was cheap back then (fraction of a cent) and gaining momentum. Then I sold with some profit and never cared about them since then.

I also spoke with a guy from the Big4 who did some consulting for a bank - large traditional bank, not investment bank. The bank was offered to run some "demonstration program" or "feasibility study" of use of Ripple inside of the bank. Probably noone really understood what the goal is supposed to be but corporate bulls**t bingo prevailed, Ripple charged them a large amount (don't remember if a few hundred thousands $ or even a million), nothing was achieved and the project was quietly scratched.

I'm lucky enough that I didn't spend more then 1000 euro on XRP back in 2018, I kept them until last week, so I made a small + but I'm out now.

Like others mentioned, I didn't understand what they were about neither.

Doesn't sound good for XRP but it will be trading soon like how Hertz stock did...lol.
