🚨 Bitcoin vs. XRP – The Debate Continues
⚖️ Following the Ripple lawsuit settlement, the long-standing clash between Bitcoin supporters and XRP advocates is back in full swing.
📢 Pro-Ripple lawyer Bill Morgan has pushed back against claims that XRP’s recent escrow release explains its price movements — arguing that even after 8 years, there’s “no helpful explanation” linking escrow to significant price shifts. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has also highlighted escrow’s benefits: trusted markets, supply predictability, and transparency.
📊 The debate got sharper when a Bitcoin proponent criticized XRP as “100% centrally issued pre-mine.” Morgan countered:
“That just means the supply is finite… a trait Bitcoin maxis themselves hail as a hallmark of hard money.”
🌐 While BTC supporters emphasize mining costs and the lack of a central issuer as unique advantages, Morgan’s stance reframes XRP’s finite supply as an equally positive feature.
🔍 Whether you see it as hard money or not, the conversation underscores how fundamental narratives — not just technology — drive crypto market perception.
