Ripple vs Alipay? Maybe NOT. ANT financial raises US$14 billion, BCH, SBI Jerry David Chan ant financial l?a d?o

good info, but even listening to you at 2.0x speed i still got so bored with the rambling in between……….the facts……….

hi people, this may be a dumb question ,but I need to ask…if one buys xrp,, what is the best way to maximize the units of xrp bought. Example I deposit fiat into coinbase and I either buy Ethereum/bitcoin .. .BOTH are on a dwnwrd price spiral ,does it matter which one I use to buy xrp with? or do I use the lowest price of the two i.e. Ethereum which is 400$ approx. then buy xrp with that…or will the units of xrp I buy with bitcoin/Ethereum be the same whichever I use, ,just trying to get the best value for money and maximize my units. .does that make sense? cheers

Excellent video , love Japan just came back from Tokyo a few weeks ago

Hi Eri, excellent video. However I disagree that alipay and Ripple are looking for different markets. Firstly because alipay already a payments company and so is ripple. Second, the service between HK and the Philippines is international remittance which is exactly what Ripple is looking to influence with money gram or Wu partnerships. And thirdly, I do research on migration and development and when people in this field talk about providing financial services to the unbanked they do include international transfers. So the only way alipay I'd not competing with ripple is if ripple is involved in this. If they're not, this is direct competition without a doubt. The 14 billion Alibaba gave alipay to develop their own blockchain solutions makes me doubt they are partnering with ripped because it wouldn't make sense to spend 14 billion just to end up partnering with a third party solution. I hope I'm wrong as I own a good bunch of xrp, but I'm not convinced

great video eri thank you, SBI bits mine BCH so thats probably why he talks BCH up so much. 3:30 15:30 https://youtu.be/-nBEPCSrna8

You and Susie are our Ripple Queens! Thanks a lot

Stellar lumens would be more appropriate than ripple with respects to alipay

Well said and well documented eli great video regards jimh

I think that Ali Pay and GCash are utilizing Standard Charter on the Interledger Protocol with XRP! Not a competitor just not using ripple software.

I just went onto the homepage for ripple and they have a list of companies which they partnered with….so my query is, has anyone seen western union on there ,cos there not on there now ,i was just wondering if THEY were there before ,otherwise if they were not initially, it really doesn't matter, but if they were few weeks ago etc and not now, it may mean something….

Hello Eri, your research is unparalleled and so in depth. Thank you so much for all the info. I always look forward to your videos.

Looks like you had a fab time at the Conference!!

Jack Man – Jack Ma …. some of these people are so run and gun with their articles. I saw a story about a VC Group and quoted the President Brian Kelly. They used the wrong photo… the grabbed the photo of Brian Kelly the head Football coach at Notre Dame

Sweet report and very informative !! I look forward to the reading "assignments". Thank You for being our Eyes and Ears in the East. Have you set a time and date yet to stream with CKJ ?
As always, we appreciate all that you do.

Thanks, Eri for the info on the Blockchain event, It is always nice to get first hand perspectives:

Here is some research about the Ripple connection with the Alipay, Ant, Standard Charter:

From Standard Charter Website: “Our strategy is to select the right fintech partners to help us advance financial inclusion, fintech innovation and client experience in Hong Kong. Already, we’re collaborating with the likes of Paykey, Alipay, Wechat and Ripple, and are connected to big players such as Apply Pay and Samsung Pay.”

Standard Charter also started a Ripple pilot in May

Douglas Feagin, who is VP of Ant Financial. Says, “And so here’s how the blockchain works. It’s what we call a consortium blockchain and there are four parties to this; there’s AliPay Hong Kong, Standard Chartered, "who’s helping us with the clearance and settlement", and then G-cash in the Philippines who receive the money and ANT Financial is providing the technology solution.”

Mr Chan is really not into XRP… 🙁
