One hears that Mr. Brad Garlinghouse, the esteemed CEO of Ripple – a company, it seems, obsessed with the vulgarity of finance – is to grace a live recording of something called the “All-In Podcast.” It’s to be presided over by a Mr. Jason Calacanis, a gentleman whose opinions, whilst plentiful, are often… regrettable. Such is the allure of Davos, I suppose – a gathering of the terribly important and the terribly opinionated. 🙄
This spectacle is scheduled for Wednesday, the 21st of January, at the ungodly hour of 10:30 AM CET. The location? “USA House,” a positively official-sounding establishment on the Davos Promenade. Apparently, even the Americans require a lounge at such affairs. One shudders to think what conversations will unfold within its gilded walls. One hopes for wit; one anticipates pronouncements.
The USA House, you see, has been deigned the “official headquarters” of the U.S., as recognized by their State Department, which is, in itself, a statement. It will house a delegation including the Treasury Secretary, a man named Scott Bessent. How utterly necessary. 🏛️
A Distinguished Disapprover
The “All-In Podcast” has previously accommodated the likes of Mr. Elon Musk a man who, at least, has the good sense to build rockets. But let us return to Mr. Calacanis. It appears this gentleman harbors a most peculiar animosity toward Ripple’s entire raison d’être. He’s been quite vocal, you see, about his profound disappointment in XRP’s refusal to embrace the delightful chaos of true decentralization.
He once declared, with characteristic bluntness on what was formerly Twitter, that XRP is merely the “opposite of Bitcoin.” Such hyperbole! One wonders if he’s ever actually seen a Bitcoin.
Indeed, he’s relentlessly insisted that XRP is a “centrally controlled security,” cleverly designed, naturally, to enrich its founders whilst impoverishing the… less discerning investor. He once warned, with the dramatic flair of a Victorian novelist, that XRP trading will bring about “chaos” and a deluge of suspicious coin dumps. He even suggested a “sophisticated investor test” – as if intelligence is a prerequisite for participating in the modern financial markets! The impertinence! 🧐
During the recent unpleasantness with the SEC, Mr. Calacanis rather confidently predicted the imminent demise of XRP, asserting it was “clearly going to zero.” He maintained it should have registered as a security from the very beginning. It seems a rather obvious point, really.
Therefore, the prospect of Mr. Garlinghouse and Mr. Calacanis attempting polite conversation is… amusing. One anticipates sparkling repartee. Or, more likely, a rather pointed silence. It promises to be a clash of titans, or at least, a moderately diverting squabble. 🥂
