Friends, the capitalization of XRP overtook Ethereum's, what do you think: buy and waitg for the growth rate or...?

I think XRP is a great coin for invest right now, XRP is so stable and has had a good increase lately. XRP has proven they can compete with Ethereum at this time.

I am sure that this is a temporary phenomenon, because the price of ETH drops very quickly and it falls because the price of BTC began to fall very quickly, so I think that all this can help us a lot to invest in BTC

I think this is the third time of Ripple taking the place of ETH , because while Bitcoin and Ethereum goes down , ripple was going up an that's why it overtake ethereum , so I think this is the rigth time to invest on th

Ripple was getting its momentum when ethereum has a big problem with the icos. Remember a lot of icos were failing and that created a big fear to join in the ico. But this just the matter of time. We are still waiting for the reversal trend of crypto to be happened. It might happen in a few years later.

The XRP whales are doing a good job keeping the coin above water in these stormy times. I think it might just have permanently overthrown ETH on the 2nd spot, and may be threatening BTC to topple BTC in the no.1 spot should it continue at this rate.

Ripple get to overtake ethereum every now and then in capitalization, I know this is just a temporary situation as ethereum is more used more than ripple and as well popular!

A solid house in the middle of the storm. XRP is really great at the moment, when everything falls, only XRP increases. It has done a great job of it, ETH is not a competitor to XRP, only BTC is the ultimate goal of XRP

If your basis is the market cap increase then you have to. But this isn't the whole point, study and learn to see what's the point of these coins. It is outperforming ethereum right now, yes that's an undeniable fact and their market caps are now $3B far from each other.

The main concern here which can be applied to all : buy during the dip.

I noticed that too. Major banking publications write positive articles about Ripple, but Ethereum and bitcoin are constantly criticized.

In terms of speculation, you can now buy. I bought and will wait for a good profit, but you need to use stop los.
But even so, I think that eth will still take off.

Buy something more right now is very dangerous. The market is in free fall. It is likely that the ripple price will also follow in the same direction very soon.

Now ripple broke through a strong level in 9400 satoshi. I think that it will grow a little more and then will be a price correction, so after this you can buy a little of XRP

Ripple is a solid project and its momentum is not ready to stop at the time that Ethereum is struggling to survive. ICOs have done a great damage to Ethereum and I think the developers will should bring out Ethereum 2.

Why are you buying this coin guys? We need to support crypto currencies that have potential to change the world like NEO, ETH or IOTA. And you are buying such centralised coins and it is now on the second place on CMC. Unbelievable.

It is not the first time that the xrp has crossed the market capitalization of eth, eth on the other hand is weak at the moment and value has significantly dropped so is the volume but i hope eth will nicely bounce back soon.

I'm not really surprised as XRP have massive supports coming from the biggest banks in the US. Just yesterday i exchange my Btc to XRP and i see a great day's ahead of XRP. If i have some cash i would definitely fill my bags with Eos and XRP.

The reason why this is all happening though is because of the BCH and that fork so its not that the XRP team gets credited for all these.
Everyone is dumping and cash out all they got from that. XRP is good but the war between the BTC and them are just dragging all altcoin including ETH which eventually lead the XRP to the 2nd on top of the marketcap.

If you follow my suggestion, you may wait until the market starts growing or at least the end of the year 2018. The year is perceived to be the year of regulations thus contributing to the market going down in prices. It is good news for ripple followers and investors that the coin is rising even to the point where it has outperformed ethereum, the second most big project by market capitalization. And in my view, ripple will even outperform bitcoin in the days to come.

indeed the higher capitalization of ripple than ethereum attracts many people, but this won't change everything and doesn't mean ripple has been better than ethereum. so reconsider.

At present, the capitalization of XRp is always higher than ETH, so I no longer trust ETH, because coin no longer give me any chance. I give up this market.

Honestly this is just getting sad, because Ethereum is more promising coin and is quite decent in 2nd place!

It is great for me, I personally own both coins, both are diffrent, both can change the world, but now Ripple is has better progress than Ethereum, thats why investors believe now more in Ripple.

Need to buy all a few coins. But I don’t think that  XRP will cost that much, and Ethereum will also go up in price - I don’t believe it.

XRP and Ethereum has been battling it out for the second spot for a couple of months now and it looks like they succeeded this time. It has outperformed (more trade volumes) since the slump and it didn't have the hard dump that we're expecting at least on my part.

But if you're a serious investors, you can still enjoy the best of both worlds, at this point they're both still cheap so take advantage of the situation.

it is only because ethereum's situation is that much worse compared to XRP otherwise they are both getting dumped and they are both centralized and shitcoins. the problem comes from the fact that ICOs have been dying and the old ones have been making their exit by dumping their free coins they received when they raised funds. and that means a massive dump.
and when an altcoin is in a bubble still and starts getting dumped, the dump is always big like this and unless ETH reaches 2 digits numbers, it won't become stable and will continue going down.

Strong bank cooperation supports XRP, and Ethereum is different from Ethereum. Therefore, XRP will inevitably exceed Ethereum. Ethereum is sold wildly by the development team. Now Ethereum will continue to decline.

I agree ripple's performance is really awesome as it overtook eth but this will not remain forever, continuous price manipulation made eth down. I strongly believe it will recover slowly and regain its position back. Just wait and watch.

This shows us that if the entire market were centralized, there would be no such leaps and problems. Therefore, I think this is the primary task that needs to be solved, and then you can almost without fear of investing in any coin.

Coins flipping is going on and that did not mean ripple is not doing better than ethereum because of the current market capitalization we are seeing.  All the cryptocurrencies are under performing now and it will take serious effort and investments to see 75% of them recover.  I believe that the future is very bright and in three years to come we should be able to see good price.

Obviously, XRP has more supporters, and their team is more willing to bring more sales and development to XRP! So I am also willing to buy some XRP as a long-term saved encryption!

This is not the first that it had happen. As far as i can remember it also happened during the first quarter of this year but i have a feeling that this is different in a sense that ether is dipping drastically while the Ripple movement is just slow. I hope eth can bounce back as soon as possible but the way it looks, it would take some time for now to regain it's no.2 spot.

Keep in mind that XRP has been growing for a long time and Ethereum is falling, most likely very soon everything can happen on the contrary, I do not think that Ripple will be delayed for a long time, soon the bankers will earn on it and start selling,then Ethereum will take its second deserved place.

now the choice is in each of our hearts, many people are afraid to make purchases because of market factors,
but there is nothing wrong if we want to buy it.

Now ripple really got around ethereum in the level of capitalization, and the level of capitalization between them is increasing. Now ethereum has a capitalization of more than 12 billion dollars, and ripple more than 16 billion dollars. However, in any case it is temporary. I think that this time, as in previous ones, ripple will not be able to hold the second place in terms of capitalization for a long time. The situation should also change in favor of ethereum if the planned improvements are introduced into this coin, including those that will fundamentally resolve the issue of the scalability of this coin.

XRP are able to move faster than ethereum, an achievement and deserve to be maintained. Pope XRP was clever to find a gap and indeed has been done on this occasion, was a real surprise and attract investors to continue to thrive.

XRP can buy. It's already in the second place. It shows that it has its own value. Many banks are now docking XRP. Demand is bound to grow in the future.

Growth rate of what? We already have reached the ATH of ethereum, so it is not impossible to reach that again. What I mean to say is to have faith in the current marketing of ethereum and hodl because someday it will reach or even surpass it's previous ATH.

Look at the drop since All Time High, yes you can order them
see https://www.coingecko.com/en?view=all_time_high

Coins that drop least from ATH probably sign of resilience or also because the ICO late and didnt meet full potential
but worth a study

I believe in ethereum and think that Ripple did not take the lead for a long time and eth will very soon restore its position!

We need a new Ethereum

I believe this is because of many adoptations from companies and businesses resulting to a more market capitalization than the ethereum. This shows that competition on market cap isn't over at all even we are experiencing a consecutive market decline. XRP and ETH gap on market cap is about $2 billion, but i guess there is nothing bad for ethereum because of that.

I think that now it makes no sense to invest in altcoins

Ripple has taken number 2 a few years ago. But Ethereum got over from it. And now XRP is rising again. But I can still believe Ethereum will come back soon!

The situation is very difficult at ETH. The next bottom is broken through at $ 120. I think the problem is fraudsters. Many projects have already completed their companies. And there are no tokens on the wallet. But ETX loses market capital. Does that scammer began to withdraw money.


XRP - Yes, who needs it? All intrigue on other coins.

I supported what you said and the problem some cryptoneir have is that they always follow the crowd which we both know that such act is not good for every investors/trader. Besides, XRP is a centralized coin and technically there's a foul play behind it current market capitalization and every soon the whole truth will come to light.

I keep to hold coins from mining

When need to start buying?

In this red market, XRP can replace ethereum place. But its happen maybe ethereum price drop very hard and XRP price can survive. XRP is good coin with strong community and i am believe XRP will reach highest price again at $2,5

In my opinion it's not to buy yet.. It might come down as part of a correction

When is growth????

Xrp bypassed eth on capitalization, but this is more a consequence of the failure actions of Ethereum developers , than the positive actions of the ripple labs team. Ethereum market price has drastically collapsed since the beginning of the year, while ripple has recently grown a bit and now it has become Altcoin number 1

I think this is just the beginning. It seems to me that in the near future, the capitalization of the Ripple project will be greater than the capitalization of Bitcoin. The market is subject to manipulation. I will not be surprised at this situation.

Ranking up doesn't prove anything to me, I think you will agree if we talk about the price of each coin. If XRP price somehow move up at least a dollar because they publish a lot of articles about them recently being the best, why is the price still sinking? I do have XRP but this seem not the right coin to invest. They have been doing all the articles posted on every finance magazine but hasn't prove anything still.

Ripple will continue to perform well because of the support from the bank and other mainstreams that would be coming on board in the future. This goes to show another dimension of Crypto establishment and not just a bubble.

I keep to hold coins from mining

XRP definitely worths zero dollars, I can't believe people still buy this thing and everyone involved that has any XRP at all should sell all their holdings. I can't believe something like ethereum can worth less than XRP. Lets compare the two, ethereum is a blockchain technology that is used by so many big corporations and even Sony is doing a game on its blockchain platform and provides so much features to so many different sectors.

Ripple is a company that deals with banks and what not and they represent XRP like its their coin but in reality the company has nothing to do with the coin because you are not making any money when ripple deals with a bank. I have seen XRP price going up when Ripple signs a contract with a huge bank, why? Ripple will not pay out their earnings like shares to XRP owners, is there ANY connection between Ripple and XRP? There is zero. Ethereum is by miles the better coin and XRP should be listed at like 150th spot instead of 2.

 ;D Despite what is happening now on the market. I don't like it anyway XRP.  It is better to choose EOS instead of ETH. At any moment everything can change.

I think you should not buy ripple, not by the fact that it is bad, but rather by the fact that apparently we are still waiting for the bottom of the market.
 At the first signs of stabilization, you immediately need to update your investment portfolio.

Consider this as a temporary situation. Let the market stabilize and prices go back to normal. Once they start to rise back, we will be seeing that Ethereum has taken over the second place once again. Ripple owns almost more than 50% of XRP. This makes XRP some what centralized. They can control the price easily. Can cause massive dumps whenever they want. More reasons people might back out from investing on XRP. Those are just my opinion.

Yes it seems that XRP has a breath of fresh air to be able to progress and grow in situations like this. Holders have good expectations with the increase in XRP now, and this is a policy that will continue to be held by the team to move forward.

Its no surprise that XRP overtook ethereum in terms of market capitalization, this is due of course that there are lots of traders and holders of XRP, and with, as we know xrp is more stable nowadays making the community aware of its developments that is why they tend to trade more on XRP. I believe that xrp is more stable to hold for long term purposes. without any doubts, i projected that this coin would go for 2usd in the next coming 2 years.

I still don’t understand why the XRP project causes people confidence, because I don’t understand how it is possible that the XRP project holds and shows serious stability in relation to the entire market.

Think yourself ETH uses every project. Almost all new projects use ETH and ERC-20 protocol. I think that the projects transferred money from ETH in order to secure investors. From this fell rynichnaya cost ETH.

For me, i better move to XRP over ethereum with the condition as today.
Purchasing XRP right now may open the chance to get more profit in the future.

Agreed, xrp is such a shitty centralized currency full of people trying to push it on other people.
I am amazed it's at #2.

I hear many talks about Ripple like cryptocurrency that is too under control of its management so it can not be trusted. But the thing is that Ripple developers make real work trying to involve cryptocurrency into our real life through a bank system.

It is good that there are people who understand this and yet are not supporters of this terrible project. I will not argue that so many people were able to make money on this project. Maybe for the sake of speculation or HYIP it can be earned, but as a technology this project is terrible.

both took different way and for different appplication. i have my faith on XRP, simply because they got stronger financial support. ETH is great too, it would better use for trading.

Most likely this is a temporary phenomenon. ETH will regain its position in the market. The strategic goal of Ripple is to confuse cryptoinvestors. He owns a certain circle of persons who very easily manipulates the coin.

Gosh! Do you think we have not touched the bottom yet? Sometimes the thoughts about the critical crypto fall do not let me sleep. Anyway I try to be positive. As for Ripple maybe it can grow because many banks starting to use it... but ETH is real crypto

I am sure that this temporary phenomenon in the Ethereum market deserves the second place in the crypto-currency market !

Personally, I don't understand why this happened. Ethereum is used everywhere, and XRP (not to be confused with Ripple) is used only for speculation.

I'm thinking.Ripple is a very promising project, which today has a very good market capitalization. And it is possible that after some time he will be able to even surpass the air, but I think it's too early to talk about it. Developers still have a lot of work to do on their project to surpass Ethereum.

For a short time XRP already overtook Ethereum by market capitalization. This happened in December last year, when the XRP rate reached > $ 3.5
It will happen more and more often. And in the end Ripple will win. IMHO

I would like to hear your opinion why it will happen so long and why you have come to this opinion. I mean, I want to hear the reason, because I see no point in investing in XRP in the long run, as this is a strange project for me.

Ripple uses many developments to achieve such a high price that made far more growing Ripple intensifies. This will be very beneficial to make the Ripple was so strong and able to overthrow the Ethereum. so progress owned Ripple invites a sizable advantage.

Ethereum and XRP have been running neck to neck for some time now but this time XRP has outrun Ether to the tune of over 2billion Dollars. Trying period for Ether so those who have money can go ahead now and buy. Ether's relative index is in oversold position now meaning the only fewer buyers are left and there will soon be a reversal.

Do you think that XRP will keep own capitalization higher than Ethereum?
I am regreting to not hold xrp until now.

Sorry, but what exactly? If we start discussing this topic, then let us give a few facts, as for ETH, I follow the latest developments and striving for the Serenity stage, which will give a very high transaction processing speed, also ETH is a platform, and what is XRP?

XRP is also have a bright future coin in 2019 and just started , although this coin seems not a real cryptocurrency since this is a centralize coin but because of a massive adoption like some of the shipping company which are using this coin .

Yeah it really hard to feel, in the last few years ETH was in second place even though it was occasionally overtake by XRP but it didn't take much time ETH overtook the XRP in second place. But what has happened in the last few days XRP is in second place and even the difference in market capitulation between XRP and ETH is very far, it might take a long time for ETH to overtake XRP.

I agree with you, XRP is not a decentralized coin, when large banks will then want to manipulate the price of XRP, and the ether has a huge potential for growth and technology is behind it, I am sure that it will soon restore second place in capitalization!

I think it is for a short period and ETH will be pumped soon. Don't worry about it! Even if XRP is stronger, it doesn't matter for me , I will invest in ethereum. To my mind it is better solution that XRP.
Also there is a positive news about Amazon to use eth technology

until now ethereum can't beat the ripples back, the decline in eth makes many eth holders disappointed, and I don't think there is anything we can expect from this year. maybe for the beginning of the year with eth v.2 can be a differentiator, with that note too if the market conditions stabilize or grow

of course we have to buy it now. if we wait, we have given up the opportunity to grow together. if it is true that the XRP takes over etherum then it is the best time we are now buying as much as possible for now.

What am I doing ? nothing, just sit back and wait for ethereum to recover, I believe ethereum is still full of potential and will develop later

XRP is a security token according from this guy https://twitter.com/ProfFaustus/status/1064449491288379392
It's so funny to see that even faketoshi was giving his blame to the XRP. But i'm not seeing any usefulness to hold ripple and i can't even use them for something. I thought that tweet makes sense for me personally.,

When a coins has more cap values than other coins it doesn't means it is best than those,this is just because people don't know what is actually is and keep investing on the coins,Ripple is one of the centralized coins based on bank platform so which is actually against the cryptos so I don't find any single reason why it was at the second place on cap value but still it does.

Xrp has really been doing well a d a lit of folks would have made tons of money from this coin. I think it is a sign of better days ahead.

Ethereum is getting better now, i think Ethereum will retake its second position on CoinMarketCap soon. XRP can't be widely used because it's centralized and owned by a company, Ethereum is fully decentralized and owned by the community, i think Ethereum is better than XRP.

I think it's just a matter of time before the next update in the Ethereum network and it will be again in the second month after bitcoin !

I agree. perhaps even earlier he will overtake XRP. before updating. Ripple always grows only temporarily. manipulation and that's all

XRP is a very specific coin, like cryptocurrency, but like no. But unlike many other "promising" and "real" cryptocurrencies allowed me to earn a large amount of money when the price reached $ 3 for 1 coin. Now the price has adjusted greatly, I think you can buy a little.

This is the current situation and XRP deserved that position at the moment, but long term ETH has much more potential and it will retake the number 2 position again. Especially when all the development upgrades take place.

the State owned Ripple much progress so that it is able to generate more profits. so by using and supporting the advancement of these coins make the Ripple came and stood in the progress that is perfect as a major and reliable future coins.

This surprised the crypto user when ranking number two Ethereum was taken by XRP. I haven't learned what makes Ethereum fall and XRP increases and defeats Ethereum. But this is an extraordinary phenomenon. But I'm sure Ethereum will rise again.

buy and wait for growth. these cryptocurrencies will undoubtedly grow and will give all of us the opportunity to earn very, very well

I think those will only a temporary ranking and ethereum can easily recover their ranking once they will bounce back after the fall. Although this will affect the investors decision to trust ETH but I'm still optimistic that ethereum can stand again.

I think we have witnessed strong manipulation. We could observe a very unusual phenomenon, when the whole market fell apart from this coin. It seems to me that in the near future we are waiting for very interesting events associated with Ripple.

I think that now Ripple will not let go of his second place in the rating and will keep him extremely long

we have to admit that at this time ethereum is not as it used to be, and ripple has amazing potential. many people who have left the ethereum become natural if the marketcap ethereum continues to decrease every day.

I have an opinion that I will not change and it will obviously be proved sooner or later, I do not want to argue because I was already interested in technology for long-term investment and I did not find anything safe for me in this project.

It does look that way, when I first saw this my first reaction was huh, who would have thought this would happen but here we are. One thing that this has taught me is that there is no way to predict what is actually going to happen with the coins, which is why when I see people making predictions I don't pay attention because at the end of the day, the coins are just going to go their own way

xrp has really proven that their market capitalization is better than ethereum, and this is the hardest homework for eth to get back to second place
