meanwhile there are murmurs about Ripple doing an IPO
Disgusting. Did you know that ripple (I guess the company) is older than BTC?
wait what? is this true?
Yeah look it up, I needed to check myself because it sounds so wack
Ripple itself launched in 2012.. ripple labs was founded in 2012 also. What are you talking about?
numerous different sources giving me 2012 also, sure you meant ripple? 🤔
Nothing was before #bitcoin as far as cryptocurrency is concerned. There were plenty of attempts at all types of things that failed.. so I’m unsure also
Wrong. Bitcoin was an iteration of earlier ideas and projects that actually existed but didn't make it.
hashcash, eCash, digicash etc
They suck but they were really early. https://image.nostr.build/d9f6d7c08533b8bb4aa1115141a47ef28c4947275d0352710252f260dc8213e9.jpg
Dogecoin used to be the most honest because the creator literally said not to buy it because it was a joke but they pumped it anyway and then the emerald mining heir turned car salesman got in on the act.
Yeah it lost its honest OG shitcoin vibes a long time ago.
♥ 3rd and 5th of the PoW coins though
Still too low
Litecoin is literally useless and irrelevant. There is only the Bitcoin/Monero duopoly and that's a fact, the dark net market adoption says everything.
Lite takes over when fees get too high on Bitcoin. I agree with you besides that niche use by the market.
