XRP Tip Bot Banned by Twitter. Here's What Happened

Uphold comes to the rescue

XRP TipBot, which was initially just a hobby for Wind, quickly started to gain steam. In two years, the project has managed to gain more than 18,000 active monthly uses. 

Since it was based in the Netherlands, recently passed regulations that pertain to cryptocurrency custody threatened the bot’s very existence.

Registering with the country’s regulator would set Wild back more a cool $25,000 per year, which doesn’t seem like a hobby anymore.

However, the project was able to survive because of a partnership with the Uphold exchange.
