    I will hop into my old Chevy and leave for good.

  • From TheCryptHawk:

    #XRP – Ran some historical data. We’re playing the early wave 1 algo of 2017. We should go for 0.29 wick, hold around 0.25-26 and straight to 0.45 before retrace 0.34 or so and shoot up to 0.62! Will be fun … #XRPCommunity

In effect, the Consensus that governs transactions of the digital asset XRP solves for the “double spend” problem without the need for energy intensive Proof-of-Work mining….All XRP is already in existence, meaning no unsustainable mining practices or additional energy is ever required to produce more, unlike other digital assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum.  The unsustainable mining practices and Proof-of-Work mechanism behind Bitcoin and Ethereum are massive barriers for the more widespread adoption of cryptocurrencies.
