The founding fathers were the OG liberals.
Some have been using "liberal" as a malapropism for "leftist" for so long (thanks, Rush Limbaugh) that they've forgotten what Liberalism actually *IS*.
Liberalism is the idea that THE PEOPLE are sovereign and their government exists to serve them, not the other way around.

VERT has launched a blockchain-based platform for structured credit, now live with a BRL 700M (~USD 130M) issuance on the XRP Ledger + EVM Sidechain. on.ripple.com/3GZpj3O
The first asset is a CRA financing Brazil’s agribusiness sector, which contributes over 20% of the national GDP.
A major step for tokenization and onchain transparency, efficiency, and traceability.

1. It's in a timelock rolling cryptographic escrow that precludes even Ripple from selling it all into the market at any given time. I can't think of any other project in crypto at this scale with less counterparty risk, transparency, or stewardship. Meanwhile no one knows who Satoshi is and is a sell time bomb.
2. Who cares. The trend towards continued distribution is the only thing that matters. Circulating supply away from the creators continues to grow into the future unlike other assets that continue to concentrate.
3. No one cares. This isn't a UTXO chain, so all of the ledger state carries forward after each ledger close, educate yourself on the difference. Provenance is inherent.
4. Ripple the company creates software products, including those of nation states. This has no bearing on my politics or XRP as native digital assets. Blockchains are for enemies.
Any more FUD?

Ohh, I see. So that whole "freedom of speech" thing was just bullshit and what you really want is specific political speech that you care about to be allowed but you don't care one bit about the speech that other people care about?

Twitter responding to your speech with their own speech in no way interferes with free speech. The right to respond to speech with speech is, in fact, the very crux of free speech. It is precisely what human rights and democratic principles endorse as the optimum response.

You have no idea how spot on this tweet is. The attempt is real, but I would argue that the end state will be an amalgamation of blockchain assurances (smart contracts) and legal assurances (the state). We can have both.

$XRP fans - our chance to support the foundation and the network. Recurring subscriptions for those who can afford will no doubt be greatly appreciated x
Because we want to give everybody a chance to contribute, and because we feel the network will actually benefit significantly by the contributions the ecosystem can make, we launch our "Adopt a (piece of a) node" initiative.

A home makes up 62% of the average middle-class family's wealth.
Every year they're taxed on that asset's unrealized gains via property tax.
Billionaires' wealth is in stocks. They borrow against the value at near 0% rates and aren't taxed.
Tax rate
Billionaires: 8%
You: 14%

Epoch 2 rewards now claimed. Going to wrap the new SGB and add to my delegation to compound the rewards. #Songbird is outstanding. It amazes me that anyone is selling over delegating. 🤷♂️ Also, the @BifrostWallet makes managing this a breeze. 🚀🚀🚀 $SGB

Decentralization is NOT the core value prop of either DeFi or NFT.
What makes blockchain unstoppable is new business models made possible by open source + monetary incentive + community.
People harping on about "x is not decentralized enough" are blinded by ideology.

10. The passing of the generational wealth torch
(there's a lot we could say about this, for instance the riding of the waves of structural bull markets in equities, bonds, and real estate)
