If there is one thing I have learned working in ORM, it's to secure your brand's domains. This is no doubt Amazon attempting to circumvent illegitimate branding attempts by third parties by snatching up the domains before anyone else has the chance. $20 on two domains to avoid legal recourse and prevent the new scam AMZNCoin.

No vendor worth their weight, especially not Amazon/ecommerce, are going to accept a payment method that spikes and falls as quickly as a crypto at this point in time, no matter how "stable and legit". If you buy something for $20 of XRP, and the next day it drops 10%, you just cost Amazon $2 on that transaction.

This is nothing more than the "pump".

Don't miss the forest for trees that seem nice and tall.

Big banks test a lot of things. Ripple's C-team probably approached them offering to test their ledger for free on dummy data. Good PR move by the company, surely. Note that the "these projects are mostly internal testing" line that was quickly glazed over in favor of a sensationalized quote by the CEO of the company.

The author of that also posted about how great Einsteinium was this morning, and then it plummeted 16%. https://www.fool.com/investing/2017/12/21/meet-the-cryptocurrency-thats-up-201000-this-year.aspx. Yet another reason why you shouldn't trust anyone who http://my.fool.com/profile/TMFUltraLong/info.aspx.

I'm just playing risk-averse devil's advocate as always though. Carry on.

They also partnered with AMEX man
Look it just doesnt make sense to go to a wells fargo, send a wire to idk...Germany? and have to wait a week for the money to transfer. it doesnt. thats why im bullish on crypto anyway.

XRP is a CENTRALIZED coin that was made for Banks. its traceable.

If 1 banks adopts it, they all will. because that bank will be able to send money in a few seconds.

Now if you can send money and have your recipient get it in under 10 seconds and a cheaper fee, vs paying idk...$20? and wait a week? what would u do?
