Ripple co-founder becomes one of the richest person in the world thanks to exploding cryptocurrency

In the cryptocurrency universe, if you mined or even bought some Bitcoin around seven to eight years ago, you would be sitting on a gold mine right now. Such is the story of Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen, a fintech expert, who has managed to bulldoze the competition and become one of the ‘richest person in the world’.

Larsen currently holds a 17% stake in the company, and according to experts, it has an implied market value of around $37.3 billion.

Larsen, on the other hand, believes that if Ripple can be given such a huge value, then so can Bitcoin.

“If centralised Ripple is worth $320 (billion) then decentralised Bitcoin is (definitely) going to be worth trillions.”

Don’t worry guys… I’m sure this is totally sustainable.
