Remittance volumes are soaring, including ODL
Twitter user @galgitron has recently shared with his 22,000 followers a chart showing a surge in volumes of remittance payments. The user emphasized that they are not all ODL payments from Ripple’s partner MoneyGram but a certain amount of them are 'definitely ODL-related'. And, as per the Twitter user, the volume is 'promising'.
