Oh, the legal tango of Ripple and XRP-a story so wild, it could be a Fleabag monologue. Enter Bill Morgan, the legal whisperer, who spills the tea on why Rippleās been playing it cool with XRP all these years. Spoiler: itās all thanks to their spicy relationship with the SEC. šæ
Why Rippleās XRP Promotion Was Basically a Stealth Mission šµļøāļø
In a tweet thatās more dramatic than a Hot Priest revelation, Bill Morgan explained that Ripple couldnāt exactly shout from the rooftops about XRP without the SEC knocking on their door with a lawsuit. āUnregistered security,ā they said. āSue-worthy,ā they implied. And yet, they still got sued. Because, of course they did. š¤¦āļø
This all started when XRPL stakeholder Wietse (yes, thatās a name) pointed out that the XRP Ledger is like that genius kid whoās always either too early or too late. Too early to be appreciated, too late to catch up. Basically, XRP is the millennial of crypto-trying hard, but always missing the mark. š
Crypto Eri (another name, another drama) chimed in about XRPās tokenized gold feature, which apparently no one noticed because, well, publicity. Wietse added that the network is like a great book no one reads until itās a movie. Too little, too late. šāØ
But Bill Morgan, ever the realist, believes XRP couldāve been the BeyoncĆ© of crypto if Ripple hadnāt been so muted. During the SEC lawsuit, Ripple barely mentioned XRP-like a parent pretending their kid doesnāt exist at a party. Meanwhile, Bitcoin and Ethereum were out here living their best lives, promoted with zero consequences. And letās not forget Bill Hinman, the SECās own hype man for ETH. š¤
Morgan notes that even now, Rippleās promotion of XRP is like a secret crush-all stealth and acquisitions. No Michael Saylor-level enthusiasm here. Just a quiet āHey, we have this thing called RLUSD.ā Yawn. š“
XRP: The Heartbeat of Rippleās Vision (Apparently) š
Rippleās CEO, Brad Garlinghouse, recently declared that XRP is the āheartbeatā of their vision. Cute. But also, what does that even mean? Is XRP the cardio workout of crypto? šāļø
He also mentioned their acquisitions (Ripple Prime and GTreasury) as steps toward enabling the āInternet of Value.ā Which sounds fancy, but letās be real-itās just a long-winded way of saying theyāre trying to make money move faster. No overnight success here, folks. Just a slow burn. š„
As of now, XRP is trading at $2.16, up 5% in 24 hours. Not bad for a coin thatās been playing it cool for years. But will it ever get the spotlight it craves? Only time (and the SEC) will tell. ā³
