🚨 We get tons of questions about $XRP
So here’s what you need to know:
Because $XRP is TECHNICALLY a scam by design 👇
• 100B XRP were pre-mined in 2012, no fair launch, no mining
• Ripple still controls ~41B XRP
• ~36B XRP is locked in escrow, released monthly (up to 1B)
• Unused tokens are re-locked, #Ripple controls the faucet
• Early XRP movements are not traceable, wallets were never properly documented
• Founders received massive allocations, some dumped early
• XRP Ledger isn’t truly decentralized, Ripple has outsized influence
• Ripple can blacklist wallets from sending/receiving
• The price is manipulated via Ripple’s regular sell-offs
• Banks use RippleNet, not XRP, big difference
• Legal status? Still murky globally, despite partial SEC win
• XRP is marketed as utility, but acts like a corporate share
• It’s not a “people’s coin” it’s a centralized liquidity trap
👉 Now, to be clear: I’m holding a few myself, this isn’t hate, it’s facts.
I don’t believe it’s an active scam in practice, but technically, by crypto standards, it checks the boxes.
It’s fully centralized.
We don’t know exactly how much they still hold.
If this were a memecoin, everyone would call it what it is: A rug in the making.
