I am hearing lot of positive news floating around Ripple 1. Ripple expands its remittance service to China and has started a new office in Shanghai. 2.Ripple has recently signed up Euro Exim Bank, based out in London, to use Ripple's xRapid service. Also, The CEO of Ripple, Brad Garlinghouse, seems very enthusiastic about future developments in the financial industry as he had predicted the same that most of the financial institutions will be using xRapid for liquidity advantages. I am just keeping my fingers crossed and HODL it
