Is this becoming mainstream?
Ripple is hosting a VIP gathering, dubbed “XRP Community Night,” in NYC on May 15, with a performance by Snoop Dog, the company announced Tuesday, April 24.
The event is “invite-only,” but two Twitter contests will run in which participants can vie for ten tickets: “Twitter Trivia” and “Make the Meme," on April 26 and May 2 respectively.
Ripple says the “special night” is to thank those who are helping the company to develop the XRP Ledger and xRapid platform, as well as all those who are “spreading the good word about Ripple’s many benefits.”
Social media was predictably split between fans and skeptics, but one Twitter user rode the wave with good-natured indifference:
For sure this is not the first time a coin is presented or represented by a superstar. You can look for coins created by Michael Owen, Paris Hilton (Where I would not put a penny) and others...
