TL; DR
-
The XRP token is now accepted as a payment method on Roblox (the video game your little nephew is always bitching about).
-
Roblox has 200 million monthly active users on its network.
-
That’s a very big, very mainstream expansion of the reach of blockchain technology.
Full story
Have you ever seen an advertisement and shouted, “People don’t talk like that!” back to your TV?
For example, when a credit card advertises its cashback rates, two friends might be queuing to pay at a bar – and the conversation will go like this:
“Hey, did you know you can now get X% back on all credit AND debit payments, with the new one [CREDIT CARD NAME]?”
Say it with us now: PEOPLE DON’T TALK LIKE THAT.
And personally, we can’t get into the idea that people would ever get That excited about the details of basic payment integrations.
…and that’s why we’re really in conflict right now.
Look, the XRP token is now accepted as a payment method on Roblox (the video game your little nephew is always talking about).
On the one hand: payment integrations = absolute snooze-fest.
On the other: Roblox has 200 million monthly active users on its network.
For context: Bitcoin and ether COMBINED had a total of 43.98 million active users in the month of September.
That’s a very big, very mainstream expansion of the reach of blockchain technology.
We hate to say it, but…we’re getting excited about the specifics of basic payment integrations.
