I think it's safe to say that those who support XRP are orders of magnitude worse than the group you are referring to. It's mind boggling how upset people get if you even dare to point them at XRPs shortcomings.

It has gone so far, that crypto "influencers" on social media carefully choose their words and think it through twice before actually saying something about XRP. Not sure how they got so involved, but it's interesting nonetheless.

They keep pointing at banks coming in and the utility, yet no one of them actually used it for anything, neither do they know if banks are actually planning to use it in the future.....

Sorry, but what's a crypto influencer? Is that like some dude or chick who is desperate to sell me a bag of their shit coins at a 'discount' if I agree to subscribe to their daily or hourly news-letter?

I think its like penny stock, where the salesman gets 50% commission.

Everything about bitcoin smells like a penny stock factory, especially the bullshit about HODL,

In bitcoin the influencer is an 'evangelist', because bitcoin is a cult, it needs people on the sidewalks bringing in new suckers

Ah, I get it. Ive watched a number of YouTube videos and while some of these evangelists are just plain are funny, others can appear impossibly earnest, bitcoin-obsessed and totally submissive towards their favorite shit coin developers who in turn are all paid sponsors of their content.

Im sure most of them are also super-wealthy now after selling me their bags at all time high prices last January...No more cool aid Wink

so ridiculously earnest in their beliefs that its @a bit creepy (and funny).
