In the early days, Buterin, Tron and other people appeared at the Ripple office as interns and employees. It now appears they were sent by the Fed and China. https://protos.com/consensys-lawsuit-jpmorgan-owns-critical-ethereum-infrastructure/ The Fed banks knew Ripple would create a level playing field which would take their power 1/8 https://protos.com/consensys-lawsuit-jpmorgan-owns-critical-ethereum-infrastructure/ The

and could make them irrelevant. What to do? Quick! Let’s start Project North Star and create our own crypto ecosystem! Gather the attorneys and determine a “safe harbor” that will give our crypto an advantage and shackle Ripple. How? Well, we could say our crypto is 2/8

sufficiently decentralized and Ripple’s isn’t. Great idea! Earlier, Buterin and a group created ETH, gathered investors and raised a fortune in the ICO. Lubin was the front man organizing it for predominantly JP Morgan, and their WallStreet and VC buddies. 3/8

Meanwhile, just to throw everyone off his scent, a certain bank CEO screamed “Bitcoin is a fraud!” while approving the BTC ETF on its investment platform. He appeared to be anti-crypto while developing the bank’s own version. 4/8

The bank bought a piece of Consensys, Meta Mask & Infura and also introduced its own crypto coin, Onyx. Unfortunately, the crypto that competed with Ripple’s (ETH) was slower, costlier and frankly, substandard technology. 5/8

Congress and the SEC avoided passing any laws in the US about crypto, so the WallStreet and banking gang could manipulate markets any way they wanted to and make billions. Without laws, anything goes. Price manipulation, 6/8

Insider trading, collusion, they can get away with all of it. However, they pulled one heist too many. Switzerland is auditing the illegal transfer of Consensys into Consensys Software Inc. (see article) and the fraud will be uncovered in my opinion. 7/8

In the meantime, we await the judge’s decision & know without a doubt that we hold the superior crypto: XRP. 💜

🧵Why did the powers behind Hinman want him to do this? @Panosmek confirmed with David Schwartz @JoelKatz that XRP “was created to destroy the banks’ monopoly and disintermediate them. XRP was created as a better BTC for P2P transactions. For people, not banks.” 1/4
@LindaPJones - Linda P. Jones
We know from @digitalassetbuy that #ETHgate was when ETH, a competing crypto, was put forward and given a free pass by Hinman so the bankers could own & control it. It backfired bc it was expensive & slow technology, but Hinman still made ETH whales a LOT of money. 2/4
@LindaPJones - Linda P. Jones
Ripple, Chris and Brad had to defend themselves against a corrupt gov agency. Don't forget, Hinman didn't write his own speech! It was written by people w financial interests who would benefit - ETH whales. The price skyrocketed in a split second after the speech. As planned. 3/4
@LindaPJones - Linda P. Jones
This is the very behavior a decentralized, open source technology was created to prevent. This, and worse crimes, can no longer be hidden and controlled by the few against the populace. 🎉 4/4
