SWIFT will be replaced by QFS (Quantum Financial System), and XRP operates on that new network.
Precious metals is probably the best investment right now - physical gold or silver you can hold in your hand, not these Wall Street stuff like SLV.
That Goldscape article was kind of ridiculous, like the guy is doing his thesis on gold-backed crypto. Most of those coins he mentions will not be around for very long.
As far as all this "where is the gold?" and "how much is there?", I don't really care about all that. I know where the banking system is headed, and I have invested accordingly.
@TBBillsWe shall see who has the right information. Time will tell, but I have full confidence in my choices of XRP, XLM, and silver.
For the rest of you guys, enjoy your Bitcoin, Ethereum, and whatnot. We can just agree to disagree on what coins are the best investment (or "gamble", as some folks think).
