XRP Crashes 40% From September High
This year has been a strange one for XRP (and digital currency in general!), the token has seen fluctuation after fluctuation and the price has never stayed in one area for a long period of time. The token, owned and designed by Ripple, has recently seen a change in price over the past month and even a time when we thought that the bad times were essentially over but now it has crashed down by over 40% from its high in September of $0. дальше »

Why You Need To Teach Your Grandma About Bitcoin
I apologise if this starts out a little bleak, but there’s a problem within the crypto community that we need to change. The general consensus is that uses of cryptocurrency (once adoption takes over) are going to be any age between 16 – 60, this is because generally, people believe adoption is going to take another 10 to 20 years, which therefore assumes the older generation and those in their 70s and beyond may not be around to see the adoption of Bitcoin. дальше »

SEC Loopholes That Could Impact XRP
XRP, the native currency to the Ripple project and no doubt the United States Securities and Exchange Commission’s’ (SEC) worst enemy (after the Bitcoin ETF of course). The problem with XRP is that within the US, a number of people are taking Ripple to court for dealing an unregistered security (XRP), but, nobody is able to define whether or not XRP is actually a security, therefore the SEC are left in limbo. дальше »
