IQ 276? XRP Community Rages as Genius Blocks Ripple CTO 🤯

In the vast and tumultuous sea of cryptocurrency, where fortunes rise and fall like the tides, there exists a peculiar village known as XRP. Its inhabitants, fierce and loyal, guard their ecosystem with the tenacity of wolves protecting their den. Yet, when a certain self-styled “genius” with an IQ of 276 (a number even Einstein might have blinked at šŸ˜‚) dared to stir the pot, chaos ensued. The tale of YoungHoon Kim, a man who claimed to outthink humanity itself, became a farcical opera of hubris and blocking.

Kim, with a flair for the dramatic, launched a token “supporting XRP,” a phrase as suspicious as a vegan steakhouse. His boasts echoed through the digital valleys, until David Schwartz, the CTO of Ripple, took a stroll through the rubble of Kim’s credentials. “These certifications,” he declared, “are likely crafted by your very hands, sir, and mimic legitimacy with the charm of a con artist at a bank.” šŸ•µļøā™‚ļø

To be precise, he blocked me after this:

Schwartz, a pillar of the XRP community, then delivered a blow to Kim’s ego: “An IQ of 276 is not merely rare-it is a mathematical impossibility, dear fellow.” The exchange culminated in Kim blocking Schwartz, a move that sent shockwaves through the XRP faithful, who now whispered, “This is not the behavior of a man who ‘supports XRP.’ This is the behavior of a man who needs a nap.” šŸ›Œ

Kim’s token, a two-chain marvel promising utility on the XRP Ledger, was met with the same enthusiasm as a pizza at a Michelin-starred restaurant. Critics scoffed, “Does XRP need your token to prove its worth? Did Socrates need a LinkedIn profile?” šŸ¤·ā™‚ļø The community, ever vigilant, warned newcomers to “beware the siren song of dubious tokens and questionable IQs.”

Unblocked.

I sincerely apologize, @JoelKatz.

I also apologize to my #XRP friends.

No excuses. I will be more careful

and respectful moving forward.

Kim’s subsequent apology, though received with polite nods, could not erase the scent of burnt trust in the air. As one community member quipped, “Apologies are like crypto transactions-once confirmed, the damage is irreversible.” And so, the XRP village, ever watchful, continues its dance with the absurd, where geniuses rise, block CTOs, and then vanish into the ether, leaving only a trail of 🤔 emojis and higher IQs than the stock market.
