According to Ripple Chief Technology Officer, Amazon can use XRP Ledger side chains

According to David Schwartz, Ripple's chief technology officer, Amazon could potentially use XRP Ledger side chains for its blockchain service.

The CEO told Thinking Crypto that the e-commerce giant "certainly" has the infrastructure to make this happen:

"Amazon certainly can... you know, they certainly have the infrastructure to make that happen. "What we need to do is build software that is clean enough and organized enough, so I think it can be very competitive."

The architect of XRP Ledger says that he would like to get to a place where it is "very easy" to build on top of this platform.

Earlier this month, Schwartz proposed adding side chains to execute smart contracts without affecting XRP Ledger security. He predicts that decentralized finance will be their biggest use.

Schwartz points out that this community decides whether XRP Ledger needs this new feature:

"We do not have a secret agenda. It will not be successful if it is just a Ripple-related issue."

A multi-currency world

Schwartz claims that there is no world in which people do not need cross-border and multilateral payments.

He says that even if Bitcoin "takes over" the world, there is still a need for liquidity, where XRP comes into play.

According to Schwartz, cryptocurrency can act as "last resort liquidity."

World Gold Review Tuesday, June 8

World Gold Review Tuesday, June 8

The upward trend in gold prices is reversing above $ 1,900 as cows in the US dollar market return to their bids amid deteriorating market conditions. After falling sharply on Monday following Janet Yellen's recent remarks, the US dollar is now trying to recover some of that loss.

Gold ended the North American trading session with an increase of about 0.4% and its price rose from $ 1881 to about $ 1900.19. At the time of writing, the XAU / USD has risen about $ 0.13 percent, from $ 1,899 to about $ 1902.

The dollar index (DXY) fell 0.21 percent to 89.946. The US Treasury 10-year benchmark was last seen at 1.569%, down from 1.628% on Friday.

From a technical point of view, the price has reached an area of ​​horizontal resistance above the 10-day moving average. Proximity to the uptrend line in the daily timeframe is also a resistance that could limit the strong uptrend that continued on Monday.

The 4 and 20 hour moving averages are also bullish at this stage, while the 10-day moving average crosses the 20-EMA chart.

In contrast, in the hourly time frame, it is possible to correct the price to the previous resistance and cross the correction level of 38.2% Fibonacci and the moving average of 21 hours before the next move.

The main factor behind these moves could be increased optimism about coronavirus vaccination in the West and readiness to reduce the limitations caused by the epidemic. Also, according to data from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, the lowest level of inflation expectations in the last six weeks in the United States, in addition to lower unemployment, were other factors contributing to this trend.

Global Gold Analysis Friday, May 14

Global Gold Analysis Friday, May 14

After forming a price floor in the range of $ 1,809 yesterday, the price of an ounce of global gold reached the resistance level of $ 1,820.

April US retail sales are expected to increase by about 1%. This rate was reported in March at 9.7%. If this happens, the price of gold could experience an upward trend.

The price of gold is moving towards the 200-day moving average indicator in the range of $ 1,847. To achieve this, a high price resistance level of $ 1,840 is required.
On the other hand, if the price penetrates below yesterday's price floor of $ 1,809, one can expect a fall to the intersection of the 21-day and 100-day moving average indicators at $ 1,795. This level is a strong support and is expected to prevent further fall in gold prices.
