That's not what was implied at all.

  “IMHO good move for the ecosystem overall” is what I was referring to. I assumed you meant the crypto ecosystem is that not the case?

    One reason it's good for the cryptocurrency ecosystem is because Ripple was never a real cryptocoin, in the decentralised trustless blockchain sense like basically all the others. A bit of a loose analogy might be regulators stopping the sale of "cheese", which is not actually cheese, next to cheese products. All the other actual-cheeses were cheapened by this "cheese product" being sold alongside it.

      Sure it is, it's just not a cryptocurrency you happen to like. Some people liked it some people didn't. It's just a religious thing. Re: cheeses regulators would only stop the sale if it was harmful. They may say you can't call it cheese anymore, though. Not really the same thing. A real life example is Velveeta.
