Semantics. Xrp is a crypto that is owned by its parent company ripple. Hence why people often call Xrp ripple. I think volsmet is saying that ripple the company will succeed but the crypto Xrp itself will not. 

 

I have never been a fan. Centralized garbage but no doubt you could make money off it. 

It’s not semantics - and I believe xrp will succeed.

Tangentially:

i'm kinda bitter because when i first got into it, i saw ripple and thought it was a good idea.

I let my friends that supposedly know better talk me out of it, for ltc.

 

Bitter.

 

Ripple may go public soon, xrp could fail, but ripple won’t.

“Studying potential for digital currency” is an oxymoron.

 

we already have a digital currency as most fiat currencies are that way. Some countries are completely cashless.

 

The right “cryptocurrency” has to be used; otherwise it will not differ much that what we have now except that the average world citizen will lose privacy and yield more control to the government.

 

i do expect we trend that way unfortunately.
 

but bitcoin is and will be an uncensorable store of value. 

Gilbert needs to freshen up on his oxymorons, 1s & 0s. 
 

The average biped will gain access to the global economy.

What happened to volsmet? Is he driving his Lambo and no longer interested in schooling the plebs on this board?

At this point I feel like Chase has more value to us than Burrow. Burrow over Haskins might be an upgrade (might not considering their respective college careers), and to get that supposed potential upgrade you pay a lot. You throw away Haskins and that pick, throw away a year of his learning, reset the clock to zero with the offense. This isn't even considering the media scorn of "there they go again, Skins steppin on their own dick" tropes. The Cards just did this, and it remains to be seen if it was the right move. Kyler played ok but in the end didn't show this year that it was the best possible move.

 

The Ron n Jack show take Chase, two vet D guys have a weapon to add to what is already a promising group up front, and you have the potential to build a stifling front that doesn't depend on one rook doing it all the way it would with a QB. Watch how much easier SF's front makes it for their secondary, just think how much that would benefit Haskins with TOP and field position and the comfort of knowing it isn't all on him. 

 

Cincy takes Chase then we all cry over what might have been but you strongarm someone into a haul of picks for Burrow and roll on.

Elite D, cheap QB that protects the ball = W.

Holtby is definitely gone next season. I would trade him now for assets.
