XRPL: The 2026 Revolution That Will Leave You Speechless!

Ripple President Monica Long, with the gravitas of a 17th-century playwright, declared on X: “Institutional adoption of the XRP Ledger accelerates faster than a goat in a race!

Robert Duvall Gave His Characters—and Us—Grace

Robert Duvall, born in San Diego in 1931, started his acting career like many of his peers, taking small roles on television in the 1960s. While he first appeared in a film as the enigmatic Boo Radley in 1962’s To Kill a Mockingbird, he continued to work steadily on TV shows like Route 66, The Fugitive, Outer Limits, and Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea. However, the 1970s marked his breakthrough. He became known for playing compelling, often unlikeable characters, such as the arrogant but inept surgeon Major Frank Burns in Robert Altman’s MASH (1970), and the ruthless television executive Frank Hackett in Network (1976). Duvall brought a unique, magnetic quality to these roles, making audiences both repelled and fascinated. Even when portraying morally questionable characters like Tom Hagen in The Godfather* films, Duvall presented them with a compelling realism. He made even terrible acts seem understandable, fitting for a character whose job was to make problems disappear—and he did so in a way that felt genuinely chilling.
