I don't like Ripple but I appreciate them with this:
Ripple employs more than 500 people worldwide and is currently striving to further expand its own presence, especially in Asia.
Employing a lot of people globally, they've impacted a lot of lives through their employment yet still it won't change our minds from the fact that it isn't decentralized.
I agree. Decentralization is what makes cryptocurrency enthusiasts going. Ripple is a great project but it is a centralized digital asset that cannot match decentralized crypto assets in terms of security. Not just once but a lot of times we are just fooled by these centralized assets because they are keep on tracking us on our activities. It is better for us to stay away from these companies and continue our journey to decentralization. Anyways, Ripple is already here in my country and I know that crypto enthusiasts here keep on observing.
