Who knows?………
Ripple, the company behind the cryptocurrency XRP, has formed numerous partnerships with banks and financial institutions globally to facilitate cross-border payments and improve financial transaction efficiency. Some notable partnerships and collaborations include:
1. SBI Holdings (Japan): Ripple has a significant partnership with SBI Holdings, a financial services company in Japan. Through their joint venture, SBI Ripple Asia, Ripple has been working to expand the use of XRP and RippleNet technology across Asia, particularly in Japan. This partnership is strategic for Ripple's presence in the Asian market, where regulatory developments and technological adoption are accelerating.
2. Santander (Spain): Santander, one of the largest banks in the world, has been using Ripple's technology for its One Pay FX service. This allows for same-day international payments in Europe and the Americas.
3. American Express (USA): American Express partnered with Ripple to explore blockchain-based cross-border payments. This partnership aimed to enhance international transactions for American Express's business customers.
4. Standard Chartered (UK): Standard Chartered has been involved with Ripple for cross-border payments and is a member of the RippleNet Committee, which advises on network governance.
5. MoneyGram (USA): Ripple had a partnership with MoneyGram, a major remittance company, where MoneyGram used XRP for liquidity in its international payment services. However, this partnership ended in 2021 after Ripple's legal challenges with the SEC.
6. Tranglo (Malaysia): Ripple acquired a 40% stake in Tranglo, a Malaysian cross-border payments specialist. This acquisition aims to expand the use of RippleNet's On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) service, leveraging XRP in the Southeast Asian market.
7. Novatti Group (Australia): Ripple partnered with Novatti Group, an Australian fintech company, to use RippleNet for remittances between Australia and Southeast Asia.
8. BCRemit (UK): BCRemit is a UK-based remittance company that uses RippleNet for fast and cost-effective transactions to the Philippines.
9. Siam Commercial Bank (Thailand): Ripple partnered with Siam Commercial Bank to enhance cross-border payment services and improve the user experience for remittances, particularly in Asia.
If these partnerships expand due to positive regulatory developments in countries like Japan and Switzerland, it could significantly increase the demand for XRP. Japan and Switzerland are known for their progressive regulatory stances on cryptocurrencies, which could provide a favorable environment for Ripple's technology and XRP's adoption. Additionally, the regulatory clarity could encourage more financial institutions to partner with Ripple, further increasing XRP's use in cross-border transactions.

Why did Donald Trump stand up with his fist to the crowd instead of cowering amd crying like a scared victim as so many people think he should have done….
Facts:
1. Adrenaline Rush: When injured, the body releases adrenaline, which can temporarily reduce the sensation of pain, increase energy levels, and heighten focus. This can lead to a surge in aggressive behavior and a stronger fight-or-flight response.
2. Survival Instinct: Being harmed can trigger a strong survival instinct. The realization that their life is in imminent danger can push individuals to act more decisively and aggressively to protect themselves
3. Peer Influence and Morale: The presence and support of fellow soldiers for example can inspire individuals to continue fighting despite being injured. The camaraderie and shared sense of purpose within a military unit can bolster an individual's resolve and courage.
4. Heroic Ideals: Many soldiers are influenced by ideals of heroism and honor. The desire to live up to these ideals and be remembered as brave can motivate individuals to perform courageous acts even when they are injured.
These factors combined can drive individuals to exhibit remarkable bravery and determination in the face of danger and injury.

Good morning…
I want to send out a quote worthy of pondering from Erich Fromm’s book “To Have or To Be?” In which he describes the contrasts between two modes of existence: the “having” mode, that focuses on material possessions and power, and the “being” mode, centering on love…creativity…and the genuine expression of one’s self, a person who has maintained their humanity and intrinsic values ‘despite’ societal pressures towards materialism and alienation.
~
‘A person who has not been completely alienated, who has remained sensitive and able to feel, who has not lost the sense of dignity, who is not yet ‘for sale’, who can still suffer over the suffering of others, who hasn’t acquired full the ‘having’ mode of existence- briefly, a person who has remained a person and not become a thing- cannot help feeling lonely, powerless, and isolated in present day society. He cannot help doubting himself and his own convictions, if not his sanity. He cannot help suffering, even though he can experience moments of joy and clarity that are absent in the life of his ‘normal contemporaries. Not rarely, he will suffer from anxiety and depression that results from the situation of a sane man living in an insane society.’

As a fashion designer of beautiful fitted sexy chef coats, I get alot of DMs from female chefs asking me if I know how hard things are in the real restaurant world…….
Well, I grew up in one, I also went to Culinary school. I am fully aware of everything around me…. I answer by saying ‘ I just like feeling pretty’ … #chefstr

I am not religious, in truth I am quietly wild.…. But for some reason I have always known Jesus Christ, by instinct I suppose, I have never felt judged by him as I have heard others claim they feel…nor have I ever felt alone or abandoned by him especially in moments of deep grief.
I realize the gifts of the spirit as spoken of in the scriptures must include faith as I do not struggle with mine. It has always been him as my only source of any relief or comfort for I do not drink to numb things or use mind altering substances.
In my darkest moments I cry out to Jesus Christ.
I cried out to him when I miscarried my first child…I cried out to him when my son was born 3 months premature and I could not even hold him in my arms for 10 days as he was in a special incubator …I cried out to him when my husband who was only 30 years old was killed in a car accident leaving me and our two little boys behind…I cried out to him when my dear friend disappeared in 2021 the San Diego desert and was found murdered 45 days later…
I have known sadness…But Jesus is always here… he wrapped me in a safe blanket and comforted me in a way I cannot comprehend during those moments of pain so deep.
I cannot deny his existence nor will I hide my trust and love for him.
He is my the first to hear my voice in the morning, and the last as I close my eyes at night.
‘How great thou art’

‘Drowning in the idea of love’
~ by Sandra Harvey
Weaving her black seaweed tresses into long braids with bits of broken shells, she steps far out into the woods cove tide pool..."He cannot find me here" she whispers while wiping salt stained tears from her eyes. Looking back at the shoreline she lifts her head up into the darkend sky and beckons the wild turbulent waves to drown her once again...down down down she sinks...down down down...but she does not drown as she shape shifts... 'I am a Selkie' she sighs...I am one with my sisters of the drowned world.
The poem is from my upcoming Trizzella by the Sea short stories. *The stunning photography is a collaboration between writer and photographer called ‘Selkie’ shot by international art
photographer Alen Wood. She is from Brazil, has lived and traveled all over the world photographing the most beautiful femme fatales.

I am so happy to be here on Nostr, although I am not tech minded, I admire the devs here for their exquisite brains….

I’m new here. Found Nostr by way of the Primal app, that I found by way of @paulinthejungle on IG when he mentioned using Primal for bitcoin zaps amd transactions.
What I notice over here in Nostr land is Devs talking about getting more conversions to Nostr, yet it seems more geared to Devs…
As a non technical human artist,
I am asking what is Nostr anyway.
