$XRP Community: Reviving innovation, traffic and the greater community. For the past 5 years, the #XRPL community has been stagnating and downgrading at a scary rate; Where innovation from the greater community has diminished to only a few parties putting effort into research and development & enterprise activity. Let's restart where we left the community at. The XRPL community used to be the community for payments, DeFi and crypto but it was dominated by conspiracy theorists and hypocritical, selfish influencers in the late 2017. I will not be calling out names. There is still time to change, no need to admit your mistake, a slow but persistent change is appreciated by all means 🤗. Some of us have committed mistakes, we notice each other's mistake but when are we going to stop being brutal with one another? Let's forgive each other and move on from our past. If not now, when? The community always compares the XRP Ledger with other protocol's innovation & enterprise activity but we forgot what they have, a baseline social standard on research, discussion and trial & errors. They try, try and try every single day. We should aspire to do that, one step at a time. We are moving forward as a community, particularly the on-hands, active XRPL community in R&D, good discussions and collaboration. We as in: 👉 Builders 👉 Enterprises 👉 Infrastructure operators 👉 Researchers And right now, the greater $XRP community is at a trivial moment in their journey. To be or not to be (better)? To move forward or stay ignorant? To forgive or not forgive? Without a doubt, the community is at an all time high in uncertainty but we won't be stuck in this phase as we're able to understand the position that we're in & dictate what the next route, option or play is best for the community and better yet, for ourselves. This is not a Xahau, Evernode or Hooks related post but an $XRP community related post. I don't care if you love or hate what X, Y and Z is doing but I do want to see more and more people change for the better as opposed to sitting all day & waiting for something crazy to happen based on conspiracy theories. So please, I and many others in the dev, enterprise and XRPL community would love to see the $XRP community at least understand the position the community is in and decide what's best for the community. 🤔 What's best for the community? 1. Understand the position the community is in. Currently, misinformation and spam is at an All Time High. Report and block the ones that don't change from now on. 2. Have a clear and concise discussion with others about it, share and come up with ideas on how to improve the community. 3. Discuss about CURRENT day matters and materials, not past & outlandish content like conspiracy theories. They are not real, they will never happen IF we stay like this. 4. Stop retweeting or distributing misinformed, outlandish or straight out fraudulent content. They don't do anything good and you are tied to them. 5. Cut out people that are no good to you or your peers. People that constantly talk about conspiracy theories, banking relationships, global politics w/ XRP or Ripple tie-in (THEY ARE FALSE!). Please, you can continue talking about Ripple, EVM, CBDCs or whatever it is at any time but we need to cut down on the outdated, outlandish and fraudulent content distribution & discussions. The XRP Ledger, as a piece of technology, is awesome and many enterprises & individuals are trying their absolute best at pushing for its use & improvements. Let's re-try, a second chance. Move on, improve and forgive. 🤗💌 Good day and I hope each and every one of us understands the mess that we're in. - Wo Jake, builders & enterprises, 30 Aug 2023

🚨 Warning: $XRP & Ripple misinformation campaign A block is not enough, we need to report these "influencers" on Twitter that post redundant materials that are from 5-7 years ago. @offledger would hopefully provide a list under this post and please, report each and every one of them for spam and misinformation. We have to clean up the community or people will constantly get fed up with us and leave. Retweet highly appreciated.
