Craig Wright Calls Tron (TRX) Supporters Dumb, Bashes Ripple (XRP)

Craig Wright noted to be one of the most controversial personalities in the crypto sphere is back to slandering his competitors.

Wright’s comments were targetted towards the expanding Tron community. He tweeted-

How to tell is somebody is dumber than dirt..

They support TRX.
Even dirt is smarter than that

— Dr Craig S Wright (@ProfFaustus) January 23, 2019

Given the timing of the tweet, it most probably is aimed towards Tron’s BitTorrent token which is to be available on public sale today through Binance’s launchpad.

Craig Wright also believes that XRP is a security according to US law. When asked about XRP being centrally controlled he calls it a sham system with false promises and the technology behind it as “shit”.

No, it is a sham system that adds little – a false promise, shit tech with marketing and hype.

A security that is falsely marketed as something novel

It’s not the first time, Wright has targetted coins which are heavy on marketing to the mass markets. On November 18, 2018, he tweeted about XRP being the biggest scam linking it to a get rich scam.

Blockmanity’s Take –

Craig Wright has been influential in the crypto space, with his experience and contributions. However, his personal comments portraying arrogance, of claiming to be Satoshi Nakamoto and also criticizing his competitors have created a bad impression for him.

He is notable for the Bitcoin Cash fork and is part of the Bitcoin SV team along with Bitcoin mining giants CoinGeek.

Craig Wright may have to second think the next time he displays his negativity as Tron and Ripple are achieving more regarding market cap, value, and even rankings.

At the time of writing Bitcoin SV (BSV) is ranked 10th, in the red at $66.21 and a market cap of $1.1 Billion.

Tron (TRX) on the other hand is outshining BSV ranking at the 8th position, valued at $0.027546 with a market cap of $1,8 Billion.

Ripple is seen to be maximizing on partnerships and enticing cross border transactions and currently ranks of 2nd position, valued at $0.296760 with a market cap of $12 Billion.
