Crypto News Flash: Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), Ripple and XRP, IOTA, AION
From Bitcoin’s 1% to a trippy new way to track Ethereum transactions, here’s a look at some of the stories breaking in the world of crypto.
Bitcoin
Former Google product director Steve Lee is offering a new take on why it’s still early days for Bitcoin. According to Lee, if you own a relatively small amount of Bitcoin, you’re guaranteed to be in a unique club that only 1% of the world’s population can ever enter.
If you own 0.28 BTC and HODL, you can be certain no more than 1% of the current world's population can EVER own more BTC than you. A modest investment of $1,830 today can ensure you are a 1%er in a future Bitcoin world. https://t.co/9k3XZa09Yo

This math is based on the fixed supply of Bitcoin, which is set to ultimately create only about 21 million coins.
Ethereum
A trippy new website can turn your Ethereum wallet transactions into sound.
Tokenville Radio lets you type in any Ethereum address to hear a digital audio translation of that wallet’s activity.
Ripple and XRP
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse says after talking with hundreds of leaders at financial institutions around the world, Ripple has a solid perspective on just how many are interested in blockchain.
According to Garlinghouse, 75% of “payment pros” are looking into how they can take advantage of crypto.
We talked to nearly 700 payments pros in 22 countries around the world. 75% are strongly interested in digital assets for settlement. The trend is the industry’s friend! https://t.co/OhoSrBNYcq
