Nice one the same applies to the broken XRP

Actually No,
The Ripple (XRP) network does not run with a proof-of-work (PoW) system like bitcoin or a proof-of-stake (PoS) system.
Instead, transactions rely on a consensus protocol in order to validate account balances and transactions on the system.

I know that, that junk is so good that they managed to permanently loose some of a nuke proof "blockchain", can not happen with bitcoin.
Even worse than PoS.


Actually if all of the bitcoin nodes keep doing that pruned node nonsense instead of running full nodes that hold all of the transactions,
losing a large part of the bitcoin blockchain becomes a real issue in bitcoin's future.  Smiley
