Mercury to Boost Remittance Time and Money Savings to South Africa Using ODL

Image
The shortest air mile distance between Johannesburg and London is 5,635 miles.  Historically, moving money between banks or money service providers in those two cities takes days to cover that distance. That literally means it would still be faster to put money on an airplane and physically fly it between the two cities.  International payments specialist  Mercury  aims to shorten that money transfer window to only minutes using RippleNet’s  On-Demand Liquidity  (ODL) service and the  digital asset XRP .  The recent news that Mercury has been accepted into the first cohort of South Africa’s Intergovernmental Fintech Working Group (IFWG) Regulatory Sandbox for its work in partnership with Ripple and cryptocurrency exchange VALR, is a big step toward bringing fintech innovation to the region.  The  IFWG  exists to facilitate the role of fintechs and innovation in the South African financial market. More than 50 companies applied to be part of this inaugural Regulatory Sandbox

Cardi B  has her eyes set on making enough money moves to eventually become a Billionaire Bardi by following in the footsteps of  Rihanna . The "Up" rapper made an appearance on  Stationhead , the growing social audio platform, that was hosted by BARDIGANGRADIO on Wednesday (March 17). With  nine top 10 hits  on the  Billboard Hot 100 , Cardi told a fan who asked about what other career goals she has that she doesn't just like million dollar deals -- she wants billion dollar deals. And when it comes to who she looks up to for their successful handling of music and business acumen, she looks no further than RiRi and  Jay-Z , who are respectively known as the  world's richest female musician  and  hip-hop's first billionaire . More recently, Rihanna's Savage x Fenty lingerie line was  valued at $1 billion .

Godzilla vs Kong Runtime Surfaces Online

Image
some fans were expecting the movie to have a juicer run time. The theory amongst most fans labeled the epic as two hours or longer, but that is not the case. Still, this may just work out in our favor. The number one complaint about the MonsterVerse so far has been its pacing. Fans are adamant in their desire for more monster mayhem and less human-on-human drama. A shorter run time may streamline those desires, so we're crossing our fingers for Godzilla vs Kong. And overall, this run time seems to be the longest of the MonsterVerse yet. Kong: Skull Island clocked in at 118 minutes while Godzilla ended at 123 minutes. Most recently, Godzilla: King of the Monsters hit put at 113, so Godzilla vs Kong looks like it will be in-between here. That makes sense given the fact it has two monsters to contend with, so fans will be able to see how this run time is used before too much longer! What do you make of this new report? Does this run time sound good to you? Share your thoug
