Just like pump and dump penny stocks don't mean the entire stock market is a scam, not everything in the crypto world is a scam either.
It's funny how people think Ripple's CEO being one of the richest people in the world is BS, yet accept that Warren Buffet is. Buffet is on record saying his "net worth" is meaningless. He has already earmarked his stock to various charities, and even if he didn't, he couldn't sell all his shares at the current BRK price. It would crash the stock price before he got 1/10th the way through. Same with Bill Gates, and Jeff Bezos, etc etc.
It's a joke to say ANY person is worth $xxx billions if it's all linked stock that is practically unsellable. No different that these new crypto billionaires.

this. and why i sold everything else and i am sticking with ripple. it is an actual product that reduces money transfers with swift that take days to less than 3 seconds. brilliant.
