#MARVIN A friend of mine, in 2018, was not only full of confidence in Bitcoin, but also particularly optimistic about Ripple. He resolutely invested a lot of money in it. At that time, the price of Ripple fluctuated, rising from a few cents to a few dollars and then falling back. Many people were worried about the risks and were eager to sell when the price was slightly higher, thinking that only by holding the money in their hands could they really make money. Some people around him withdrew from the market, thinking that the prospects of Ripple were unclear and it would be better to focus on Bitcoin.

But he did the opposite and continued to increase his holdings of Ripple. I asked him the reason, and he said that Ripple's cross-border payment technology is groundbreaking and will surely make great strides in the international financial field in the future. He excitedly explained to me that Ripple is not only a digital currency, but also a powerful financial tool. In the future, many financial institutions will make efficient cross-border payments on its network without cumbersome intermediate links and long settlement time. He firmly believes in his judgment and is willing to invest in this belief.

At that time, some of his friends laughed at him, saying that his ideas were too naive and that reality was far more cruel than he had imagined. A few years later, with the continuous development of financial technology, the application scenarios of Ripple gradually expanded, and he also received rich returns for sticking to his beliefs, making his own investment legend. Recently, a MEME coin Marvin (address 7055) on the Ethereum chain has also received special attention. Marvin is a meme coin related to Musk's pet dog. November 1st of each year is Musk's dog's birthday. The Marvin community actively promotes it. Although the current market value is only US$500,000, it is expected to exceed US$10 million soon, and may achieve a 100-1000-fold growth in the short term.
