1/22 Why XRP will beat Bitcoin.
(Video version @ https://t.co/VIHEoHLYpN)
A thread. 👇
To say bitcoin will beat XRP, you have to think that all that matters is its lead. It's slower. It's more expensive. It lacks on-chain features like account security management. We don't know if block generation will be stable as the block reward drops. ...

Hands-down the best video I've seen arguing why @Ripple will win, XRP will not be deemed a security, and the SEC is likely to settle the case sooner rather than later. Video is from @jungleincxrphttps://t.co/ccjsfZGZvL#XRP $XRP #XRPCommunity

1/XRP benefits explainer threads.

There's lots of confusing tech-talk articles that explain XRP, Flare, concepts like Proof Of Work, Proof of Stake, etc.
I attempt to break down how it all works and where it's all going in simple language. \U0001f447 pic.twitter.com/WAxvknjzdq

2/ Before you go all rage on the flaws of my analysis, please read the whole Twitter thread for disclaimers and caveats.
3/ approve() is an unnecessary step of ERC-20 tokens when they interact with smart contracts.
You know this because when you do a Uniswap trade you need press two transaction buttons instead of one.
4/ Why there is approve() - you can read the history in this Twitter
1/ I just spend my Saturday morning on a call with a crypto fund explaining to them how #Ethereum ERC-20 token approve() function works

5/ I queried all approve() transactions on Google BigQuery public dataset and calculated their ETH cost and then converted this to the USD with the current ETH price.
If everyone was holding bitcoin on the old x86 in their parents basement, we would be finding a price bottom. The problem is the risk is all pooled at a few brokerages and a network of rotten exchanges with counter party risk that makes AIG circa 2008 look like a good credit.

The benign product is sovereign programmable money, which is historically a niche interest of folks with a relatively clustered set of beliefs about the state, the literary merit of Snow Crash, and the utility of gold to the modern economy.
This product has narrow appeal and, accordingly, is worth about as much as everything else on a 486 sitting in someone's basement is worth.
The other product is investment scams, which have approximately the best product market fit of anything produced by humans. In no age, in no country, in no city, at no level of sophistication do people consistently say "Actually I would prefer not to get money for nothing."
This product needs the exchanges like they need oxygen, because the value of it is directly tied to having payment rails to move real currency into the ecosystem and some jurisdictional and regulatory legerdemain to stay one step ahead of the banhammer.
