@lady_valor_07 A Few Good Men or My Cousin Vinny

You know what shook me when I was Muslim? The story of Hosea. God tells a prophet to marry a woman He knows will betray him. She does. She runs to other men. She ends up enslaved, sold, used up, worthless to the world. And God tells Hosea to go BUY HER BACK. To pay money for his own wife who cheated on him, and love her again. Hosea 3. I thought it was the most humiliating command in the Bible. Why would any man do that? Then I realized I was the wife. I gave my heart to everything but God. I chased other masters. I sold myself cheap. I made myself worthless. And God looked at me, the betrayer, and didn’t say “you’re not worth it.” He said, “Name the price. I’m buying her back.” That’s the Gospel. God doesn’t wait for the unfaithful to come crawling back clean. He pays to redeem them while they’re still dirty. Islam told me to make myself worthy of God. Hosea showed me a God who pays to redeem the unworthy. The cross was Him naming the price. Praise the Lord.

@mysteriouskat Because life is competition. Sport mirrors life.

An excellent summary of the state of play in digital finance through the most powerful Ripple lens. Take heart folks. It's coming to a wallet near you!

The pieces are real, banks are testing live, and the chain settles in seconds. What's left is the market catching up to what already exists The infrastructure around XRP is being built in plain sight. 24/24🧵

@CryptoDevop @B_arri_C False. Global payments, settlement and nostro vostro burdens eliminate that theory as viable

It doesn't matter what the price of XRP is before launch. The underlying future state and massive infrastructure prep is already built and waiting for the switch. It will flip. The data supports this. Pros and institutional smart money continue to hord XRP while retailers like us get weak kneed and seĺl. Check the data.

@Kenneth58913090 @beyond_broke Don't. Give. In.

@beyond_broke @king_leonidas26 Ugh.

I am also highly skeptical of "international agencies" who produce convenient marxist narratives about global poverty. It reminds me of the climate change data. And we know how that turned out. Insidious and politically intentional, to contaminate young minds against the far more natural free market progress. ---------------------------' [2 Minootes Laytayre] ....from Claude "World Bank Poverty Data - 1981 to 2024 (Total period of consistent definitions and tracking) TOP 10 NATIONS BY POVERTY RATE REDUCTION 1. CHINA 2. VIETNAM 3. INDONESIA 4. INDIA 5. BANGLADESH 6. SOUTH KOREA 7. TANZANIA 8. ETHIOPIA 9. BRAZIL 10. MEXICO - Just this Top 10 list in Poverty Rate Reduction represents 50% of total global population as of 2024. - China's poverty rate fell from 88% in 1981 to 0.7% in 2015 — roughly 850 million people lifted out of extreme poverty. ~ Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poverty_i…) - Vietnam's "Đổi Mới" reforms of 1986 transitioned the economy from central planning (Communism) to a market-oriented system, driving poverty from over 50% in the early 1990s to about 6.7% in recent data. ~Data Pandas datapandas.org/ranking/povert… - India lifted 415 million people out of poverty in just 15 years between 2005/6 and 2019/21, one of the fastest large-scale poverty reductions ever recorded. ~ United Nations Development Programme undp.org/press-releases… - In 1981, 44% of the global population lived in extreme poverty; by 2019, that figure had dropped to just 9%, with China, India, and Indonesia together accounting for more than two-thirds of that global decline. ~ VoxDev voxdev.org/topic/methods-…) Bottom line: The biggest GDP growth winners over 100 years are East Asian economies — South Korea, Taiwan, Japan, China — driven by export-led industrialization. The biggest poverty reducers over the measurable period are generally those same countries.

Hey Jake. I'm a BB member. Appreciate the resources you guys provide. Question: How will the Feds, Institutions, Ripple, etc, explain the massive and sudden increase in XRP value once that first big jump happens? It seems to me that a jump like you expect, in any investment class or investment asset, would require a plausible, smart, confident explanation to the masses as to why. It will surely make the news everywhere. ??

@shaunvlog_ Good for you :).

Let regular people invest in private companies!

I think it’s time to revisit the accredited investor laws in the US. Companies are staying private longer, where only accredited investors (aka rich people!) can invest. Retail investors can only come in after IPO, when much of the upside has already been captured. These rules

We're proud to announce that Ripple USD ($RLUSD) is now officially available in Japan, following approval from the Japan Financial Services Agency (JFSA): on.ripple.com/3SpNZYF Through our partnership with SBI Group and @sbivc_official, $RLUSD will be accessible to both institutional and retail users via the VCTRADE platform, serving as a bridge for payments, tokenization, and collateral management. With $1.7 billion in market cap and a 10-year relationship with SBI, this is a significant milestone in advancing regulated stablecoin adoption across Asia.

@shaunvlog_ THAT is a great guy to know, Shaun! Especially for a guy with a fish tattooed on his body 🤣👍🇺🇸 You lucky duck!

That's weak sauce, David. Who are you trying to fool? Us or yourself? In simple but profound terms, today we have something. Any state prior to something, or prior to anything at all, is nothing. What you call a first state is just an evasive euphemism for nothing. Nothing = No matter. No space. No time. No Thing. The No Thing that was right up to the one Planck moment before the singularity. The birth of our Universe. That "In the beginning, God..." moment. No matter how big your brain is, these facts in evidence do not change. And something from nothing requires an explanation. It begs for one. It actually demands one. It deserves one. Denial does not cut it. Evasion and arrogant word play doesn't cut it. I know what it is. It was the first miracle. How else does something come from nothing? ?? But you, sir, need another explanation than the one you spit up on us earlier. This would be like me finding the code for XRP on a random computer at the library and assuming it got there through time and random chance. Who would believe such an idiotic explanation? Who would accept it? More likely, who would be pissed off and offended that someone would try to use such an idiotic explanation to try to convince them that it was true. Just to run from God. Everything ever created requires a creator. Everything. Every Thing. You should know better.

@beyond_broke As this moment plays out, will USD/Yen continue to rise? Or dramatically fall? What's the mostblikely trajectory as their interests rates go up? I'm looking to get out to Japan and timing of a strong dollar over there is part of my decsion re when.

@JoelKatz @GsuGrinding Excellent distinction. And the reason I do only one and not the other.
