President-Elect

Hold XRP? Here's food for thought.

@Christophe69463 @XRP_Avengers Check the percentage gains for today of the top ten cryptos and make your statement abouts hundreds of dollars vs a few cents.

@CaptStuff @XRP_Avengers Do you NOT UNDERSTAND “MANIPULATION”?

Analysts now see $XRP reaching between $10,000 and $35,000, fueled by institutional demand and reserve-driven liquidity. ⚡🏦 #XPUMP not a memecoin but Buying $XPUMP is one of the best investments you can make right now!! 📈💸 Buy Link:👇👇 xmagnetic.org/dex/XPUMP+rNqM…

@Christophe69463 @XRP_Avengers Do you not understand percentages?

@XRP_Avengers 0.06 cent after Clarity Act “Mark Up”😂😂😂😂WTF will it take for XRP to go to at least $4.00. Damn, Bitcoin increased by $100’s and XRP can’t even move a few quarters, let alone, a few dollars!

It depends on where you live. There is still a lot of open space to be had, but I do understand what you are saying We are in the Matrix, and unless you are a legitimate survivalist who wants to rough it for what will almost surely be a short life in the wild, the options for leaving this prison are basically nil. Like I said, I'm not outraged by this guy, and I also think the State could have been much harder on him in this case. I'm glad he got less than a year.

@CaptStuff @mrwtffacts You really can't be though. This isn't the frontier says where you could steak out land and make your own home. We all know what would happen if he did that. In a way I don't feel angry at him, even though I feel bad for the people he stole from. Society is an illusion of choice.

In 1986, 20-year-old Christopher Knight quit his job and drove into the Maine woods until his car ran out of gas. Once his car ran dead, he got out, then stayed in the woods for 27 YEARS. Christopher lived completely alone in a hidden camp. The only words he spoke to another human were a simple “Hi” to a passing hiker. To survive, he stole food & gas from nearby vacation homes more than 1,000 times, yet was never caught once. In brutal winters, he’d erase his footprints and wander at night using military-level survival tricks just to stay alive. In 2013, after 27 years in the woods, Christopher, now 47, was tracked down by police after a surveillance camera caught the “Ghost of the Woods” He was arrested, but released after serving just 7 months for his crimes.

It's not like you just become an animal if you decide to leave society, he's a human man with free will and the ability to make choices. I'm not saying the guy is immoral, I'm saying he broke the natural law of private ownership and that that obviously has consequences. Furthermore, I will say that his style of "leaving society" is not what any of us should ever strive for. It's scavenging, it's parasitic. If you want to live off grid, best get right with living off the land.

@CaptStuff @mrwtffacts What I'm saying is he escaped the system for 27 years and lived without the propaganda, poison and theft we live under. He did steal, yes. But morality has no place when you are no longer part of society. It's like placing moral judgement on a scorpion or tornado. He got caught.

I'm not judging him, just pointing out he wasn't "independent" nor self sufficient, he spend almost 3 decades stealing from others to survive. His actions were bound to catch up with him. I'm actually glad he didn't get years, and frankly I think his story is admirable aside from the theft.

@CaptStuff @mrwtffacts 2. I find it hard to judge him, sure I would hate if he robbed me. But at the same time, I'm sitting here paying for foreign wars, pedos, healthcare and education for their country, all against my will. While living in a box I don't own. How can I judge him?

I guess I don't see what you're saying then. Your initial post was sarcastically saying we can't have people living without the government and being independent, as if that is what he was doing. No, he wasn't living off the government, but what does the government do but take from me to give to others? He was taking from others directly. Am I outraged? No, it's not like he murdered someone, but the initial sarcasm seemed to imply that him getting arrested was some sort of martyrdom, that he didn't deserve it.

@CaptStuff @mrwtffacts 1. He's no entitled. No one is entitled to ANYTHING when they go off the grid. He reverted back to the laws of nature at that point. EVERYTHING you do is a risk at that point. I'm saying outrage and moral judgement are irrelevant for someone in his position.

I mean I'm no bootlicker, and I agree with what you are saying about the government, but the idea that someone who makes that decision is suddenly entitled to what I have without some sort of consequence, just doesn't make sense to me. If he was truly independent, living off the land by his own effort, and he still got arrested for some fucked reason having to do with public land rights or something else, I'd be taking a the stance you are right now. In any case, he got off pretty light for 1000 burglaries. I would say 7 months is fair to lenient.

@CaptStuff @mrwtffacts Nothing? I would hate that to happen. But you are placing a moral argument on it. He new the risk and took it. I am on the other side and am getting robbed by the government. Either way getting robbed. How you feel about it depends on what side of the issue you find yourself.

@Level9Drow @mrwtffacts So what is the difference between this and a homeless guy who breaks into your house and robs your pantry and steals gas out of your car? You're good with that?

@CaptStuff @mrwtffacts I would say that's a fair consolation for not being able to build a home or settlement because the government would see it, tear it down and imprison anyways,

@Level9Drow @mrwtffacts Well it's not like he was independent if he had to resort to stealing food and gas.

@mrwtffacts Can't have people living without the government, now. People could get the wrong idea and stop paying taxes and become independent again.

@madmoneymaka @genelambo Total XRP supply is fixed at 100B with a deflationary burn mechanism per tx. It is not infinite. Try again.

@genelambo The only reason XRP has a 80+ billion market cap is because of the bag holders. They're market cap is propped up by bag holders whp refuse to sell. They're will never be any demand for XRP because of their infinite supply.

#XRP IS TRASH, ESPECIALLY AS AN INVESTMENT HERE'S THE TOP 100 CRYPTOS LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCE

You guys love falling back on that "decentralization" argument. At the end of the day, the only thing that matters is that the supply of an asset is fixed and cannot be diluted by a central authority. That's it, end of story. You can prattle on with your rhetoric all your want, but BTC does not magically free you from the system, and it never will. Don't believe me? Try paying your taxes with BTC "Lightning." As well, Lightning ditches much of what makes BTC, BTC, so please don't mistake this as the solution to creating a world that uses nothing but BTC to circumnavigate the banks, which by the way, aren't going anywhere no matter how much you HODL. This is why the BTC narrative has shifted from payments to "digital gold" whatever the fuck that is supposed to mean.

@CaptStuff Immaculate conception is non negotiable, Base layer focuses on the most important DECENTRALIZATION The internet is built in layers, So will the internet of money be built in layers

Guys, I decided I dont like humanity, nor freedom... I sold all my Bitcoin for xrp I want to be an eternal bankster slave, it's the right thing to do for my posterity. Totalitarian government & bankster control with endless wars, Freedom is overrated.

Hey dumbass, here's what they'll say. Schwartz traded his BTC to buy that 26 million XRP because he opted for Ripple equity over a position in XRP when he joined the company. Once that XRP hit 10 cents he sold most of that as well. Aside from the ~1M he has left of his XRP, the man essentially has no crypto exposure outside of his Ripple equity, which is indirect. Work on that reading comprehension before your little fingies start going wild on that drool covered keyboard of yours.

¿Y QUÉ DIRÁN LOS XRPLOVERS ❤️? Cofundador de XRP se libera de riesgo y vende sus XRP por Bitcoin ¿Riesgo, si creaste con el click de un dedo tus monedas? Igual, son shitcoins yéndose a 0 versus bitcoin, prefirió vender. Si así no entiendes, no veo cómo hacer para explicarte

@KPMorningstar @bgarlinghouse For sure, bored and bitter. Make sure to make some more posts about how sad you are about your investment before you call it a night.

@CaptStuff @bgarlinghouse What a bizzare thing to concern yourself with, dude, I can do this all night, I am bored and waiting for 3am so I can DCA again. So keep going

@bgarlinghouse last year you said lock in, this year you said it again. I listened last year, a lot of people did. $XRP was $2.40 then, before your “lock in” statement. Do you have any words for those of us that listened and missed out on much better opportunities? I am upside down because of your advise. The money ai lost cost me a house. Your wealth is on the backs of people like me, you’re welcome. You won, I lost

@KPMorningstar @bgarlinghouse What a bizarre thing to be happy about. A proud internet shit posting mob member on the "Ripple done scammed me" bandwagon.

@CaptStuff @bgarlinghouse If all you see in your feed is me bitching about XRP, I am doing something right, the algo finally likes me, none of the positive shit I have said was seen obviously. Now go do some due diligence and have a great night

@KPMorningstar @bgarlinghouse Nope. I just suddenly see you in my feed everyday if I search the word "XRP." Same old story over and over again. "Boo hoo, I bought XRP instead of buying a house but it's not my fault because I figured Brad was guaranteeing an immediate, or any, return on my XRP purchase."

@CaptStuff @bgarlinghouse I thought you said you read all of my posts?

Aside from David, who essentially owns no crypto now (aside from his 1,000,000 XRP) the entire executive team owns billions of it collectively. What you are claiming is, as usual, 100% horseshit. Jed sold when he left Ripple and forked to create Stellar, which is an obvious play if you're breaking off to form what is essentially a parallel solution.

@DefendDark Jed sold his tacostand. David sold. Chris Larsen sold. Even The owners of ripple and the creators of xrp dont believe it can reach high prices. I don't think some clickbait influencers on x or YouTube know better than these people 😉

You have been warned.

This statement implies that Brad has a crystal ball and is intentionally scamming you because he knows the market, across the board, is about to dip. He doesn't, and you would do well to understand that obvious fact. How the crypto market moves is not up to him. If you bought XRP, or any crypto, based on something as flimsy as the words "lock in" on the internet, that's on you. You're welcome to DCA down your entry if you still think XRP will do something, I do it every day. You're also welcome to sell your position. Either of those things would do much more for you than victimizing yourself publicly. And if you don't want people like me to grow tired of seeing your shit in their feed everyday and call you out on it, feel free to keep your nonsense to yourself.

You take shit posts on X way too seriously for a grown man. First of all, a CEO telling people to lock in before a dip is something penny stock con artists do to rob people, you really want to say you’re perfectly good with him doing that? Go ahead, your position is clear and so is mine. Keep whining about what I post though. It’s ok by me.

A grown ass man complaining on the internet about why it's someone else's fault his investments aren't up calling me "fragile" is truly remarkable. The market doesn't move on your timeline, two words are not financial advice, and if you think either of those statements aren't true, this game is not for you.

@CaptStuff @bgarlinghouse You can’t handle someone like me blowing off steam and calling out the CEO for saying to lock in before a dump? You that fragile?

Uh huh. Friends are in the real world. All I see when I come across you, or any other victim minded individual who adds to the "I've been scammed by Ripple" narrative, is another person taking time out of their life to shit on and FUD one of my investments by spreading emotional nonsense. Either you believe XRP will reach its potential or you don't, and you can make whatever decision you want based on that conviction. Make no mistake though, neither Brad, nor Ripple, nor anyone, is responsible for what you have decided to invest your money into.

@CaptStuff @bgarlinghouse It did though, I was in a mood and needed a friend, and here you are, thanks pal
