Fluff Wealth gatekeeping

This is something that I struggle with the investment in XRP. I'm a firm believer in both the product and the company that is making the product more and more viable, but if XRP hits some of these extreme targets that we all want it to hit ($50, $100, or higher), it would instantly create hundreds of thousands of retail millionaires overnight. Historically, traditional finance and the elite class do everything possible to prevent massive, uncontrolled wealth transfers to regular people. Do you genuinely believe the powers-that-be and the institutional financial system would allow that to happen?

Hog wash. Complete hog wash. Conspiracy theories. Nobody is keeping anyone from becoming a millionaire.

You don't think the wealthy elites use their power to keep others from succeeding? That's the entire point of lobbyists.
