If one muses over the nitty-gritty of some of the mystery events in the crypto space, one will begin to wonder to the tune of gaping. The latest happening which saw Justin Sun eulogizing Ripple technology with songs of praise over its latest achievements in the market has issued distrust into people’s mind.
Justin Sun in his extoling statement for Ripple (XRP) claimed the cross border remittance focused blockchain technology will soon be handed more adoptions from top financial institutions as an addition to its past glories. Sun added that with the imminent Ripple Swell 2018 program slated for next month which will feature Bill Clinton keynoting, the altcoin would have another positive step towards mainstream adoption.
While Justin remains the founder of Tron blockchain technology, many have been wondering why the tech specialist is driving popularity for Ripple in the space against Ethereum despite having his own project. They believe almost all coins in the space, especially the ones above Tron in the table, are competitors to the altcoin.
As the worries, deliberation and concerns linger, this article found it important to disclose some of the reasons why the founder of the entertainment focused blockchain technology has been involved in such.
