More unexpected XRP and BNB crossovers
Another encounter between XRP and BNB occurred on the margins of social media. Thus, XRP Ledger lead developer and Xumm Wallet author Wietse Wind stated that XRP is a stablecoin, as 1 XRP is directly equal to itself.
XRP already is a stable coin: 1 XRP = 1 XRP.

The developer's controversial thesis was a kind of homage to the famous post by the head of Binance, Changpeng Zhao, who once stated that 1 BTC equals 1 BTC and then repeated the same about BNB.
