Hey, you! Are you interested in the crypto / DLT markets?
If so, did you know there are red flags that need to be investigated behind the $XRP lawsuit from the @SECGov?
It's called a conspiracy, but there is a lot of physical evidence that is being ignored.

@SECGov 1. We did this for the #XRPcommunity because we stand for truth.
We stand for unbiased technology-neutral legislation.
We know $XRP is not a security. The only country in the world that thinks its a security is the USA because of biased officials in power.
See the facts below⏬

Between 1984 and 1999 there was a significant increase in the proportion of youth who reported gambling within the past year as well as those who reported gambling-related #problems (Jacobs, 2000). Clearly, adolescents represent a particularly high-risk group and are vulnerable
deviantart.com/betajokerslot/… to the development of gambling problems Research has demonstrated that problematic gambling among adolescents has been associated with a number of other mental health outcomes. From a clinical perspective,
vevioz.com/read-blog/2841… youth with gambling problems exhibit higher rates of depressive sympto-mology, increased risk of suicide ideation and attempts, higher anxiety (Gupta & Derevensky, 1998), as well as an increased risk of alcohol and substance abuse disorders
The fact that one is able to buy/sell #cryptocurrency is because someone mined it in the first place. This is what proof-of-work(#PoW) basically is. There would not be any proof-of-stake or proof-of-authority cryptocurrency models, had PoW not conceptualized in the first place.👇
Banning #mining means banning proof-of-work, which is the fundamental pillar behind generating all #cryptocurrencies. Many gamers in India use their computers to earn some pocket money through mining as well as #NFTgaming. For many, it is how they feed themselves.
Reasons why I believe the legacy cross-border payments system is broken and the future solution to the problem.
For example, if you send $150+ dollars from Canada to Japan
The bank charges you a $50 transaction fee. (which is expensive to third world countries)

Second thing they tell you is money doesn't move on weekends or holidays..
So you ask when will the other side get their money?
Sir, we do not have end-to-end tracking on cross-border payments. It's up to the receiving party to let you know when they get it.
What? It's 2021...

The answer is legacy swift system uses the correspondent banking system.
Your payment travels through multiple banks ledgers, going through the clearing process which can take days. KYC + AML processes.

Berlin has to do without a vaccine delivery in the first week of January. "We have now received the message from the Federal Ministry of Health that the delivery will be canceled without replacement in the first calendar week,"
says Health Senator Dilek Kalayci from the SPD. It should not continue until January 11th. "This is now causing us great difficulties, as we have made our plans based on these commitments," says Kalayci.
The country needed the additional vaccination doses "to be able to start with the over 80s. Of course we can't do that now." Therefore, people over 90 years of age would now be invited to the vaccinations by letter.

Trying to adjust to the catshit crazy reality of going upstairs to grab a jumper but instead finding a cat and 4 kittens. Am I dad now?
