You can hate Ripple but you can’t deny XRP does what it promises

$33 million moved for third of a cent

Cryptocoinspy reports that yesterday, somebody transferred 90,000,000 of Ripple’s XRP tokens between two unknown wallet addresses, prompting crypto sleuths to start a guessing game. Transfers of this magnitude are usually made between wallets of an easily identifiable cryptocurrency exchange, but in this case, both transaction identities are unknown – making the move that much more suspicious.

However, the more impressive aspect of the equation is the incredibly low cost of the transaction – only 0.005 XRP. The total number of XRP tokens transferred equates to more than $33 million in value but incurred a fee of almost a third of a cent. A similar transfer of fiat currency between traditional banks could easily incur a fee upward of $1 million. In reality, converting the 90,000,000 XRP into usable fiat currency would undoubtedly attract additional fees, but the transaction exhibits the potential that digital assets pose for the future of international remittance.

eToro might be one of the wallets?

It was announced today that XRP has been listed on the wildly-popular trading platform eToro, a traditional trading system that now supports both fiat and cryptocurrency. It’s possible the transfer could be related to eToro acquiring a large amount of XRP for liquidity, although the amount seems excessive even for a large exchange.
