I seem to have piled in at exactly the wrong moment. Not for the first time :-)

Holding Ethereum, Stellar Lumens, Ripple and a few others.

All down about 80%

Hold both also, more so in XMR. XMR already has adoption in 50+ retail stores.

One more retail store and they'll overtake AmEx!

I have positions in both.
Honestly...I think I have more confidence in XMR than ADA but that is only because of recent news about possible rifts in the team. I believe they both have important parts to play going forwards but my position sizes are suitably small in both

Thanks chaps.

Think I'll pick up some XMR. Got 0.1 BTC sitting in Bittrex after a recent alt P&D trade so that equates to 2x 0.05 BTC alt trades. I'll get some XMR and take a shorter term speculative P&D in some alt. So which one will 5-10x in the next week or so...

The Amex, Santander and Ripple project seems to be making good progress.

American Express vice president Colin O'Flaherty confirmed last week at Money 20/20 Europe that the firm would be using Ripple's xCurrent tool to enable global transactions at higher speeds and greater levels of transparency.

"Ripple offers instantaneous, point-to-point conversations between the sender and receiver of funds. And that provides a real opportunity to alleviate most of the issues our customers are facing," said Flaherty at the event, speaking of the challenges small-to-medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) encounter when engaging in cross-border payments.

The xCurrent product is already being used by Santander to enable their OnePayFX service which allows customers to complete international transfers either on the same day or the next one.

Wow, what a breakthrough!!!

isnt that better than the current solution?

It's just a really bad wording in the article. No it's not really for standard European transfers but no EEA countries can be up to 4 days so yes will be much faster.. but I think the process is hoped to be near instantaneous which is a massive improvement from 1 to 2 days. Poor reporting IMO.

I mean, no one says 'same day or maybe the next', except for Scooter when consulting his tea leaves about the future of crypto.

So I bought some XMR (HODL) and some VIB (P&D).

Bit rusty but I think the alt P&D game is tentatively back on

BTC has been floating around the $6k mark since June, longest consolidation period I've ever seen in the space!

Still got until Friday before the 85% side of the wall is hit.. perhaps it'll mark the end of the consolidation period.
