[1/π§΅] There's a new site from @Satish_nl that you should definitely check out! π§
It's @xpert_page and from what I've seen so far, it's a mix of a "mini-CV" + donation functionality via XRPL and XAHL for your online (project-) presence. π
Let's take a look at what's inside π
[2/9] β Featured Creators β
It's all brand new, so there're only a few personal pages & project pages active right now.
Later the idea is to have a complete XRPL & XAHL-based project directory that you can browse through & donate to if you want to support the guys behind it π₯

[1/π§΅] Tokenization, Ripple, Hidden Road & XRP!
A lot has happened in the last few days, and I feel like people don't really grasp the magnitude of what this means for the XRP Ledger. π€¨
Let's take a look at some numbers & address the topic from my beloved "1%" perspective. π
[2/16] β 1β£ Status Quo β
The XRP Ledger as it stands now handles around ~100 transactions per ledger.
If we assume a ledger to continuously close and finalize every ~4 seconds, this brings us to ~25 TPS on average.

[1/π§΅] Over the last few days, many newcomers have asked me one question, and one question only:
βWhat do I need to keep in mind if I want to hold my keys in self-custody on the XRP Ledger?β
Self-Custody doesn't simply mean holding your own private keys to control your own account on the XRPL.
There's also the psychological effect that is about personal responsibility for all that happens.

[1/π§΅] XRP Ledger Vocabulary Overview βΌοΈ
The greater the XRPL becomes and the more features are introduced, the more I feel that a dictionary is needed.
Let's start with 10 words you NEED to know. π
[2/14] β XRP β
Digital currency that is secured by cryptography and supported by the XRP Ledger.
Also used for:
πΈ Transactions
πΈ Fees
πΈ Reserves

[1/π§΅] The XRP Ledger is particularly superior when it comes to the fundamental task of moving value.
Although there are limits, we are about to overcome them big time! But how? π€¨
Follow me as I show you all the missing blocks π
[2/15] β 1β£ Fundamentals β
What makes the XRP Ledger so great is that "things just work". π
To move value from A to B, you don't need a master's degree, because every single imaginable feature is engineered deep into the core.

[1/π§΅] A paradigm shift for the XRP Ledger is on the horizon βΌοΈ
It's a future that's:
πΈ Programmable
πΈ Automated
πΈ Compliance-first
Let's take a look at some of the fundamental arguments and work out what this will mean for XRP. π
[2/18] β 1β£ Status Quo β
To date, the XRPL is a so-called βfixed-functionβ blockchain, which only allows new native features to be added to the XRP Ledger if the on-chain governance process votes in favor of it.
If you're a pessimist, you would call this βpermissionedβ. π

[1/π§΅] One of the more fundamental proposals became public today. It's a draft that lays out a path to an inheritance solution for the XRP Ledger. π§
In my view, this is so much more than βjustβ an inheritance solution.
The way I see it, there are some hidden aspects that make this really powerful and a true βPlan Bβ solution if you lose access to your wallet.
It's much more than a solution to claim the last will and testament.

[1/π§΅] There are people out there who still believe that there are ways to clawback XRP on the XRPL. π€¨
While this is NOT possible & is written all over the official documentation, there is one more argument that should hit the nail on the coffin.
The ULTIMATE reason why π
[2/14] β Tokens β
Whenever you hear βclawbackβ, you should automatically think of βissued assetsβ.
They are fungible and come in many forms and structures:
πΈ IOUs
πΈ Stablecoins
πΈ Multi-Purpose (later this year)
Anyone can issue these kinds of tokens on the XRP Ledger.

[1/π§΅] Roughly 68% of all nodes have already upgraded to the latest version of the XRP Ledger server software.
However I bet you have no idea about all the new features that have been introduced, right? π§
Here's everything you need to know, short & simple. π
[2/16] β 1β£ Background β
Nodes upgrading to the latest rippled version 2.3.0 are not automatically forced to vote "Yeas" on any new amendment.
It's up to each validator in the governance process of the XRP Ledger by voting on proposed amendments that get introduced.

[1/π§΅] The institutional financial future will be completely on-chain, HOWEVER...
It will be trust-based, gated, and fully compliant with:

How do you stay compliant on the decentralized and permissionless XRP Ledger that's neutral to its users? π
[2/18] β Regulatory Compliance β
Institutions who want to work with Ripple to use their tech stack must be careful not to get into trouble while using blockchain technology.
For this, Ripple has pledged NOT to:
πΈ Launder money
πΈ Finance terrorism
πΈ Evade sanctions

[1/π§΅] Did you know that there is scientific research on the optimal fees for geometric mean market makers (G3M), one of which is the XRPL-AMM?
π‘ We are doing it all wrong, and here's everything you need to know to revive the AMM. π
[2/20] β Basics β
First of all, among every complaint about the XRPL-AMM, trading fees are something over which we have power.
The voting mechanism of the design passes control to the top eight largest LP-Token holders in each pool, allowing them to regulate trading fees.
