Anyone that decides to check out Ripple should consider the effect that a banking failure might have on that crypto. As I understand it, the Banks are using it as a way to clear bank to bank transfers rapidly, at low cost. I don't understand what will happen to Ripple if the banks start dropping off.
I don't think we can mine or purchase Ripple, it is a different platform all together.
very true, I hadn't considered that yet.
I hadn't either! And to be honest, I feel like that banking failure might be coming sooner, rather than later
