1/22 Why XRP will beat Bitcoin.

(Video version @ https://t.co/VIHEoHLYpN)

A thread. 👇

 2/22 Despite last night's major Bitcoin correction, it still sits at $33k, well above the last bull run's all time high. With XRP currently at $0.28, it may seem rather ridiculous to think XRP will ever become #1.
3/22 However, it's important to compare Bitcoin and XRP not in terms of price, but market cap. That's because there are 100 billion XRP (and will never be more) and 19 million circulating Bitcoin (21 million max). So comparing the price of individual tokens doesn't work.
4/22 XRP's market cap is $12.6 billion. Bitcoin's is $623 (roughly 50x more, 55x if you factor in the 2 million Bitcoin not yet mined). That's a huge lead, but not as big as the 119,000x lead if you compare token price!
5/22 Bitcoin's primary advantage is its early adoption. It caught on earlier and became the front runner of crypto. Don't underestimate the power of being first. It gives a massive advantage. But it doesn't GUARANTEE being the winner long-term.
6/22 The world is full of examples of market leaders that lost their lead because they failed to innovate and lost ground to better tech. Kodak, Motorola, IBM, Atari, Yahoo. All of them were #1 at one point and seemed unbeatable..until somebody beat them. https://t.co/dVUr149H3i
7/22 Bitcoin has a huge lead in the race, yes, but its basic design has a number of flaws. We can't fault Bitcoin's creator for these flaws. As a developer I know that sometimes software has to be out in production before you realize that your design has real issues.
8/22 CTO of Ripple David Schwartz, the XRP boss-man himself, points out that Bitcoin is slow, expensive and lacks important security features that XRP has. Bitcoin also relies on miners who want high fees while users want low fees, a problematic conflict. https://t.co/SJgotgNRG7
9/22 Then there's the massive power requirements of mining Bitcoin. And because Bitcoin's Proof of Work is based on miner competition, those requirements will only grow as players jump in to compete for the rewards from Bitcion's rising price. This is unsustainable.
10/22 Proof of Work is designed to solve the double-spend problem. It DOES solve the problem, but it does so very inefficiently. Horse/buggy innovation solved the transportation problem, but when cars/trucks came along and fixed inherent flaws, horse/buggy disappeared.
11/22 For an innovation to beat the market leader, it has to be a lot better. Jeff Booth, an accomplished tech entrepreneur and Bitcoiner, states in his book "The Price of Tomorrow", that new tech needs to be at least 10x better than current tech to beat it (MySpace/Facebook).
12/22 Of course, Mr. Booth also states that Bitcoin is 10x better than fiat money, and he's correct. Because Bitcoin IS so much better than fiat money, it's no surprise it's done so well. But is there anything that's 10x better than Bitcoin? Yes, XRP. Here's why:
13/22 When Bitcoin isn't in a raging bull run, its average transaction time is about 10 minutes. It's much slower when lots of transactions are happening. XRP transactions take 3-4 seconds, in or out of a bull market. At bare minimum XRP is 150x faster than Bitcoin.
14/22 On a normal day, Bitcoin's average transaction fee is around $0.50. Right now it's much higher (my last Bitcoin transfer cost $4). XRP's transaction fee is currently at $0.0000028. At bare minimum XRP is 178,571x cheaper than Bitcoin.
15/22 Even if XRP's price reached $100/token, its transfer fee would still only be 1 tenth of 1 penny ($0.001), 500x cheaper than Bitcoin on a normal day (~4,000x cheaper right now).
16/22 In terms of security, Bitcoin's design makes it susceptible to a 51% attack. Whoever owns 51% of the hash power can successfully attack it, though researchers at Cornell Tech believe it could be done with only 21% (BDOS attack). https://t.co/ZnX89WBh7p
17/22 XRP uses Consensus Protocol, not POW. The value of the token itself has no impact on the security of the network, and 80% of all validators would have to be compromised in order for a successful attack to take place. I'd call that a 10x improvement. https://t.co/toBLtVz4Te
18/22 What about market potential? Bitcoin is referred to as Gold 2.0. Gold's market cap is about $10 trillion. Bitcoin is too slow and inefficient to work for payments, so store of value is its best bet.
19/22 XRP is efficient/cheap/secure, and is built to be a bridge currency. That means potential for markets like cross-border payments ($6+ trillion/day), ForeEx ($6.6 trillion/day), DeFi (???), CBDCs, stablecoins, etc. Bitcoin cannot handle any of those. https://t.co/WBHCTrwD4Q
20/22 So XRP's market is potentially hundreds of trillions of dollars. Of course that will take time and is not certain, but XRP *is capable* of handling it. Bitcoin isn't, so its market potential tops out with its store of value potential. Another 10x in favor of XRP.
21/22 The path ahead is promising, but uncertain. XRP needs regulatory clarity. I believe it will get that clarity, and when it does a huge world of applications opens up for Ripple, the largest company in the XRP space and a leader in crypto innovation. https://t.co/5QfB26fOwi
22/22 SUMMARY: Bitcoin is the current crypto leader, but leaders fail when 10x better tech comes along (Kodak, Motorola, IBM, Atari, Yahoo). XRP 10x's Bitcoin in speed, cost, security and market potential, and is therefore poised to soar beyond our wildest dreams, so HODL on!

Go to 1-4 hour chart.

Use the following EMAs.
13,21,50,180.

Look for a period of consolidation and
13>21>50>180.

Wait for a pull back to 13EMA.
If bounce occurs with volume, Enter.

Exit on bearish cross with 21>13.

$BTC & $USDT & the criminal cartels that pump the prices of BTC while laundering out real fiat profits through their exchange partners. While tax evasion & general financial malfeasance is problematic enough, one has to wonder what else is occurring with the laundered funds ..1/

Despite the romantic, libertarian view of Bitcoin subverting the oppression of the centralized fiat economy, in reality, the backers were also engaging in drug smuggling, assassination markets & human trafficking. 2/

While some of Bitcoin’s ideology of civil disobedience & the hope of building a shining new economy upon the distributed ledger was exciting for a time, the Bitcoin Civil War side-tracked the project heavily. 3/

Once Dread Pirate Roberts and The Silk Road was closed down, nastier websites emerged, and so too did some of the shadiest venture capitalists in the world — necessitating the split of the Bitcoin protocol away from the BTC economy in 2017. But this requires some context. 4/

Unfortunately, in the era spanning 2014-2016, venture capitalists created media entities such as CoinDesk & Cointelegraph, development groups such as Blockstream & MIT Digital Currency Initiative, exchanges like Coinbase & Bitfinex, 5/

1/  We've reached a critical inflection point in bitcoin's adoption curve.

A moment wholly unique in the history of markets.

Are you ready for what comes next? 👇

#Bitcoin


2/ A perfect storm of demand dynamics is driving #Bitcoin price.

I think something shifted in the market -- and active investors & traders would do well to adjust their mindset.

3/ After years asleep at the wheel, institutional leaders are now jarred awake, en masse.

If they want this asset: they'll have to hustle, compete with the masses and FOMO in above ATH's.

Against a backdrop of scarcity unlike anything they've ever seen.


4/ They will buy *all* dips.

Their bots will not stop buying.

There isn't enough supply for all of them, and they know it.

5/ And the whales who accumulated much lower?

How much appetite will strong hands have to market sell, just to run stops?

In the opening hours of the greatest bull market of their lives.

In a liquidity crisis.

1 - Over the years I've learnt a lot of new things that I wish I knew when I first started so I want to make this thread for all the new traders out there who wants to turn their trading into a profitable career 🔥

Will be adding to this thread over time.

17 - Because trading is a game of numbers and probabilities, whenever you see a setup that fits your trading rules and aligns with your edge, you NEED to take the opportunity!

Don't pick and choose, just religiously follow your plan and rules!

I get asked for writing tips a lot. Of all the ones I’ve given, here are a few of the ones that seem to hold true and remain somewhat universal or at least mostly unobjectionable:

#amwriting #writingtips

1. If you are a fast writer (i.e., if you compose first drafts very quickly) then you absolutely must become a slow editor. Much of what I call “writing” is really, for me, editing.

2. If you don’t read you cannot write a lot or well. Sure, maybe you can read like a maniac for a decade and then read less after that, but without some large volume of intake, there will never be a meaningful output.

2.1 I sometimes say that I feel like writing without reading is like trying to run a marathan on a cracker. And sadly I see many students struggling to write when they have simply never read enough to fuel that demand of the task at hand.

3. All writing is writing if one decides to treat it that way. If one takes some degree of intentional will when sending emails, posting on social media and writing notes and marginalia, then all of that can count as meaningful daily writing.

November is here, and that means a massive shift is coming. And by "massive" I am of course referring to the redefinition of the kilogram unit of mass that the world has been building up to for more than 100 years. Let me explain:


1/ I've had an unhealthy fascination with metrology (the study of measurement) ever since my 2nd year as a physics major when I took a class devoted to duplicating historic physics experiments, so please indulge me for going into heavy detail (get it?) about the kilogram.

2/ So what actually *defines* a unit of measurement? If you're American, you probably know a mile is 5280 feet and a foot is 12 inches and an inch is 2.54 centimeters etc. But where does this chain of definitions end? Is it turtles all the way down?

3/ It's actually not! For all units (even the imperial units used in America) the answers all end with the Système International (SI) unit definitions established and maintained for over 100 years by the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures (BIMP) in France.

4/ At the base of this tower are the SI base units. Just 7 SI base units define every other unit in existence. They are:

Kilogram, kg (mass)
Meter, m (distance)
Second, s (time)
Kelvin, K (temp)
Ampere, A (electric current)
Candela, cd (luminous intensity)
Mole, mol (quantity)

BRAHMA VAIVARTA PURAN: IMPORTANCE AND CHARACTERISTICS.

This Puran introduces us to way of Vedas. On the request of Narad Muni Bhagwan Saavarni had preached this Puran. It is a summary of Dharma, Arth, Moksha etc.


Listening to this Puran one gets automatically attached to Vishnu and Shiva and realize that there is no difference between them. Vyasji divided this book into four parts. It has eighteen thousand shlokas. This whole book is in the form of dialogue between Suutji and Maharishi's.

The first part Brahmkhand, consists of Shrishti description. Here Shri is known as Para Brahma and description of Gokul is also mentioned, It also narrates the argument between Brahma and Narad in which both were defeated, and then Narad went to Shiva to attain more gyan.

Shivji advised him to go to Bhagwan Saavarni for this. Narad goes to Saavarni ashram to seek Knowledge and is totally amazed by the sorroundings.

Next is Prakriti khand which consists of dialogue between Narad and Saavarni where they discuss the

Importance of Shri Krishna through various stories. Then there is the discussion of Prakriti and its various hues. Listening to this gets you wealth.
Next is Ganesh Khand which describes the Punyak vrat done by Parvati ji. After this it narrates the birth of Kartikeya and Ganesh.

Speech Delay is most common in children nowadays

In ancient times, our grandparents used to follow typical natural way of caring the needs of a child. All they used were more of natural products than chemical based for the growth of child.


One of major step followed was to feed Gurbach Jadd/ Vasa Kommu/ Acorus Calamus for initiating good speech ability in a child. This stem was needed to babies on Tuesdays and Sundays in mother's milk.

Vasa is feed to baby after the 1st bath on 12th day in week. Weekly only thrice it is fed and named as :

Budhwar - Budhi Vasa
Mangalwar - Vaak Vasa
Ravi Vaar - Aayush Vasa

This stem is burnt and rubbed against the grinding stone in mother's milk or warm water to get a paste


The procedure to make it is in the link

https://t.co/uo4sGp7mUm

It should not be given daily to the child. Other main benefits are

1. It clears the phlegm in child's throat caused due to continuous milk intake. It clears the tracts and breathing is effortless.
2. Digestion

For children who haven't got their speech and is delayed than usual should feed this vasa on these days in week atleast for 6months. Don't get carried away with this dialogue
"Some gain speech little late"

THE UNTOLD TALE OF THE LESSER KNOWN WARRIORS:JOGRAJ GURJAR & RAMPYARI GURJAR AND HOW DID THEY DEFEAT THE CRUELEST ISLAMIC INVADER, TIMUR LANG.

Timur Lang, was the founder of Timurid Empire. He was born in April 1336 CE, somewhere in central asia.


During his reign, he conquered Persia, Egypt, Central Asia and emerged as the most powerful and heinous ruler. He was a religious fanatic like the rest of the Islamic invaders who tried to invade India.

Timur Lang decided to invade India in 1398 as he heard about India's splendid wealth and had a desire to conquer India which his ancestor Genghis Khan couldn't do.


After Firoz Shah's demise in1388, Delhi Sultanate was in a state of political turmoil.During this time, Timur sent his grandson Pir Mohammad to attack Indian front. He invaded Multan&was able to defeat Iqbal Khan's brother but when he met with resistance,he asked help from Timur.


Iqbal Khan secured his hold on Delhi under Muhammad Tughluq after Firoz Shah died.
Timur provided the required back-up to his grandson with 100000 men approx. Timur sacked and plundered all the cities coming in his way &later in October 1398 reunited with his grandson.
