My dad (44 last Saturday) has been balls deep ($20k) into XRP since around $0.40-0.60. Next month he’ll be buying his first ever brand new vehicle and it’s only possible because of crypto

I couldn’t be happier for him now, but I’m ashamed to say that I thought he was crazy a few months ago.

After reading all of the skeptics and crypto-veterans bash on XRP and Ripple all day, I was convinced that my dad was falling for a pyramid scheme. He’d subscribed to a bunch of crypto YouTube accounts that would post daily videos talking only about XRP, followed them on Twitter, it was the only project he was interested in. And every day here I read how terrible the project was and how it didn’t stand for what crypto was meant to be. Every time I listened to one of his YouTube videos while working with him I thought he was crazier and crazier.

Looking back, it’s obvious that I forgot what a lot of people are realizing here: crypto is realistically all about the profits.

I’m happy for my dad; I’m happy I never told him how crazy he was; I’m happy he subscribed to all those XRP-shilling channels and never lost interest; I’m happy Ripple, both as a company and a coin, is doing well.

I wish I could thank the crypto community, but sometimes I guess you just have to put faith in what you believe in and ignore all the debate. So, thank you everyone, if you’re in here, that made this possible and thank you everyone who keeps the markets moving!
