XRP vs ETH:

   Ethereum has finally been dethroned as the 2nd biggest cryptocurrency. XRP has gained over 150% in the past week! This isn't anything new to most of you guys that have been following crypto, but this could help strengthen the overall market. Additional hype, discussion, & vested interest will help crypto as a whole recover from the bear market we have been experiencing the past year. XRP is still far away from ATH's, but with recent news it could start to recover towards the $1 range. If we can get institutional investors into this space, then I believe crypto as a whole will begin to recover.

Curaizon:
  
   Curaizon is making large strides in the crypto space as an ICO. They have a product with a real purpose that could help save lives. Their product would also help consumers, doctors, & pharmacies save money and further research with prescription based medications. Their goal is to eliminate drug non-adherence through a system they created. So far, this system has shown to be effective in clinical trials. Here is a short excerpt that explains how unique this project is "Curaizon™ uses the most practical, economically viable and fastest means of communication in order to secure high levels of adherence to prescriptions, avoid preventable hospitalizations and gather valuable data".

Summary:

   Our market will continue to grow as long as ICO's continue to gain validity. We need ICO's that don't have purpose to fail. Right now we are in the growing stage of the crypto space. Older projects like XRP, ETH, NEO ect have already proved their worth and should continue to grow when the market picks up steam. There is no way to tell where the bottom of this market is, but analyst are inferring that we are close to it.

Questions:

Do you believe XRP will reach $1 soon?

What are your thoughts on Curaizon?

XRP is still far from its $3 high, but it has a strong chance to succeed in this market. I'm also hoping ICO's begin to strengthen and then become a viable investment opportunity like in 2017.

After today's pump was thinking XRP will touch the 1$ today. But seems like wait to more days now. Now maybe big dump for the XRP or it will soon cross the 1$ mark in coming days or in coming months surely.

I don't think so, ripple is too manipulated and is centralized I don't trust this "fake" cryptocurrency, the cryptocurrencies haven't born to be centralized

I made a video on this today & I said the exact same thing. However, that's why I believe it will succeed. It's kind of like a hybrid cryptocurrency. ICO's that aren't 100% blockchain based also have the best odds of succeeding. Crypto has to find out how to merge and integrate into our society. I don't think crypto can just survive by itself as a lone currency.

I am interested to know what 'recent news' have been shown to justify this sudden rise in price. Out of nowhere, XRP jumped from $250 Million daily trading volume to $4 Billion in just 4 days. I haven't seen any 'coincident' positive news from media outlets till now, except this (https://twitter.com/XRPcryptowolf/status/1042877918211452934?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1042877918211452934&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cryptoglobe.com%2Flatest%2F2018%2F09%2Fxrp-surges-nearly-40-amidst-warnings-of-a-huge-dump%2Fwww.cryptoglobe.com%2Flatest%2F2018%2F09%2Fxrp-surges-nearly-40-amidst-warnings-of-a-huge-dump%2F). Seems like a pump&dump to me.

Leaving aside the quality aspect and focusing only on current events we should not be happy for immediacy. XRP is derived from banks and with large whales and no hot news is needed for the price to be manipulated. Thus a centralized currency has positive and negative situations and the manipulation of prices in a high sense can be considered positive, but the high of the graph is sudden and still needs a support that does not yet exist.

This entire news, I  think, really took everyone by surprise. Nonetheless, for those who had almost lost all their faith in XRP, now is the paying off moment with over 70% price surge. This indeed is very good for the market, but one still asks what then happened to ETH, will it catch up?

The chart of ripple has started to decrease, you can see on the 7 day chart and it looks so real and be careful for another big bearish trend to the crypto.
This is a big bet for those have invested on the ripple when it has reached the peak price.
everyone should get out from the market as soon as possible to secure their profit from ripple. It will be back again to the bottom.

A lot of ppl had lost their faith in the whole market. Hopefully this is the start of something bigger for the whole entire community.

I hope you aren't the one that said XRp to $480 lol

XRP is not in fron of ETH anymore. It was only a pump based on news from Saudi Arabia, but people sold at high prices at the first opportunity.

Bullish on ETH bullish on Curaizon, missed the xrp pump so I guess I'll go die

How long was XRP in 2nd? Ethereum looks to be 2nd as of now. And considering how much of the crypto ecosystem runs on Ethereum, I think that's the way it should stay.

I'm all for ETH being in 2nd. Without ETH we wouldn't have the ICO's or quality projects we have today.

XRP ALH is more than $3 and no doubt it will reach $1 but I don't think it will reach soon because of the bear market condition. XRP and ETH have some position changes in coinmarket cap They fight for #2 ;D. We can expect Big dump and Pump soon don't take your eye away keep in touch.

I think crypto's recovery does not depend on joining investors in Crypto, but on the contrary, the commitment of a project from the beginning is very difficult for us to grasp at the moment, we have done smart work, but many liars and fraudsters are vendors in Crypto

Yes I am also fan of both XRP and Curaizon. I have invested in ripple and am happy that the coin is increasing vertically in prices and hope that it will hit $1 in a few days. Not only ripple, but all coins will increase in prices including Curaizon. Gone are those days when coins were in pain.

XRP overtaking ETh is shortlived as of this moment, but with the continues increase of Volume and many spectacular news regarding XRP and Xrapid and the price not yet reaching its all time high from 3+ usd last dec 2017 then there is a very very big big chance that XRP will dethroned ETH from its current place.

As you can see ETH is already back at its spot, XPR is just another pump and dump coin that can be manipulated by the government. ETH still remain the king of all token after BTC

Ripple is very different cryptocurrency if we can name it crypto.
I think it grow because regular cryptos have problems and going depp and deep

I think that the majority of users on this forum were also pleasantly surprised by the rapid effective response of ethereum to ripple. Today we see an increase in the capitalization of the ethereum to $ 24.68 billion, and a decrease in the level of ripple's capitalization to $ 20.39 billion. In addition, ethereum very well rose in price to 241 dollars. Ethereum still remains a coin number two after bitcoin and proved its reliability and relevance.

Ehtereum decided to rally to take back it's 2nd spot but XRP had a good run today and to go up nearly 100% on the dollar for a top ten coin means that the bulls are back in action, for how long? Only they and the rest of the WHALE groups know that. I am waiting for a 61% Fib retracement to get back into XRP with a small holding but if not will go in at the 38% Fib retracement if that is at all possible or I will just find other coins to ride the wave upwards. I did a couple of videos funnily enough on Curaizon, great project: Here is my English video, if you want to have a look:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qJm6oPDPT8&t=1s  :)

Whales pump XRP, I hope there will be no people will get FOMO on this. XRP is trash coin, it is centralized, not like ethereum which really decentralized and really a quality project. I'll still go for ethereum compare to XRP. Ethereum is decentralized.

I completely agree, but in order for crypto to advance centralization will have to happen. I love ETH because it allowed for projects like Curaizon to be formed, but at the end of the day the government will never allow a decentralized currency to become the main source of payment for society.
