Cardano's "Marketing Woe" Unveiled by Top Exec: What's the Deal?
Tim Harrison, Input Output's EVP of Community & Ecosystem, spills the beans about Cardano's so-called "marketing problem." It's not about dizzying promises of wealth or blinding hype, Harrison says. It's Cardano's inability to make its groundbreaking tech accessible and understood by the masses. "We got something legit here, something with principles. But if no one knows what it's about or why it matters, we've got a problem," Harrison bluntly states. He advises a smarter strategy, a simplified message, empowering the community, and strategic partnerships to amplify visibility[1][2][3].

Ripple Unleashes One Billion XRP: New Rules Applied
According to Whale Alert, three massive XRP transfers, totaling one billion XRP, rocked the blockchain last weekend. Ripple itself was responsible for the largest transfer, with the other two originating from the same entity. In a departure from their usual practice, Ripple now locks 700 million XRP in escrow before releasing one billion XRP, rather than after. They're doing this to maintain liquidity in the market and use part of the proceeds for operational expenses and supporting the Ripple Payments network[5].
