Interesting..... I wonder if this would be using the Ripple network or a new network established just for Western Union.
It does say a "pilot to provide infrastructure for" rather than "adding to our network".
If it is Western Union's own network I can see XRP going down in value and not up lol
I don't get this project at all. How is it going to transfer wealth?
If it's just digital IOUs to WU itself then I guess regular fees will apply, unless it's a premium service and fees are higher.
