Banks were dropping out! No more Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Nab, Cross River Bank, SHRB, Star One Credit Union etc in Ripple website.

Look at this image

- it's a screenshot of the same page on Ripple website (now removed) in June, July and August 2017.

Some replies:
- You can still see the archive of the page on Bing not for long I guess:

- I think OP is right, they have deleted Youtube content also:

I had the original video (talking with SHRB) but can't find it now.

I copied all the above from source: https://www.reddit.com/r/Ripple/comments/6wyzag/for_ripple_believers_real_adoption_by_banks/

Don't play with banks... you'll get burnt. Ripple knows that.

Now, on a more serious note: XRP is not here to replace bank legders or internal systems. It is waaay too expensive for that.
XRP has value in interbanking operations: connecting banks together.
That is why they speak with GOVERNMENTS, not banks.
It may become a global protocol for interbank exchanges, at a massive scale (= becomes bigger than BTC in MarketCap, small probability)... or just get f**k*d in the a** by the banking system and the governments (most probable)

Good luck. XRP is a moonshot today. A huge one... but still a moonshot.

Six of the world's biggest banks: Barclays, Credit Suisse, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, HSBC, MUFG and State Street are teaming up with UBS for a digital currency project called "utility settlement coin," it's an idea that's been around since 2015, but it's now moving into a new phase of development. They are in discussions with central banks and regulators. Work on the next phase of the project the last before a live implementation will include six members revealed today, Barclays, CIBC, Credit Suisse, HSBC, MUFG and State Street, building alongside founding financial institutions UBS, BNY Mellon, Deutsche Bank, Santander, NEX and blockchain startup Clearmatics.

Existing Ripple clients: UBS, MUFG and CIBC might be dropping out (from Ripple) anytime after the announcement.

Awesome. That means XRP will bridge every houseown coin of every bank. Thats very good news.

Now it makes sense why japan will use XRP at the start of 2018 for domestic payments(because no bank trusts the other banks) This is huge.
