MarketCap has 2x'd in USD & $XRP still ended up in the red.
what is your response to XRP?

I don't really a fan of XRP, so i don't invest any in XRP again since it seems the price for XRP already too high. Thats only a little of example how your investment would be turned something good if you invested in right time (most of the time you will ended with profit while invested in crypto)

if its too high we need to wait till make correction,but so far but dont worry with xrp price although its alone in red zone.investors thinking to invest in other coin with high profit probability.i am not think there is nothing to worry with ripple price. It will follow another coins movement,or maybe wait other coins drop and its the time for ripple recovery.as major  coins ripple give us more certainity ,we could be calm although its price drop.

One of the reason is XRP is not decentralized. Ripple controls RippleNet and they own a whopping 62% of the total XRP coins in existence. This thing worried XRP investors and Ripple’s response was to lock up 55 billion coins in escrow. The reason of digital currency have failed in the past is because a centralized digital currency is too easy to kill with regulation. Ripple faces the same weaknesses of these early digital currencies. It is one entity to attack legally when things inevitably go wrong.

to be honest, until now, I have started to lose confidence in XRP. I also realize that XRP did not make a significant increase this year. in fact, since 2018, the price has decreased from $ 2.3 to $ 0.30 at present, and the ATH has reached $ 3.8. it was a really big reduction, and even from the beginning of 2019 to the present, the price was really stable and didn't show a significant increase.

for now, I plan to see the development of XRP, because the development of bitcoin and ETh could affect the price of XRP in the following year.

The record says that XRP earns a huge margin profit compare to any other coin but yeah it still ended up on a lower price maybe because a lot of investors are losing their trust to this coin. Its good to see bitcoin made a good bounce back right now and its a proof that we are slowly getting away from the wall of a bear market. Hopefully the next comparison will be more bigger on so many coins next year.

Not surprised considering Ripple keeps dumping XRP onto the markets and it doesn't seem like there's enough buying to keep the price sustained higher. Most alts also haven't done too well in the last few weeks with some of the major alts including ETH and LTC peaking around June and declining since as well, so that's something else that hasn't been helping XRP along. I expect most alts are going to rally again once Bitcoin continues its way up again and once it breaks its previous high around $13.8K as well and once crypto hype returns either way.

In fact, I believe in XRP more because it will increase next year, seeing from the prospect that prices now tend to be stable at $ 0.03, I am sure this will increase even more, even if people no longer believe it, I am sure that it will be a breakthrough for XRP in the long run.

I hold huge xrp last year and kinda devastated and disppointed with the results. Never had a positive gains from this coin, so what i did was to dump my xrps in exchange to some potential and useful coins.

If you are going to consider XRP as a long term hold, think twice. I am not discouraging everyone but that was just my opinion with my real experience. It is hardly pump when it comes to the price.

Only Ripple (XRP) has incurred negative growth. This is directly caused by several controversies which Ripple (XRP) has found itself caught in the previous months. The centralized issue about Ripple (XRP) is an old one which I think is not the primary reason why the coin is decreasing in price. It is perhaps mainly due to the dumping started by the team itself which was followed by big and small investors. But the project will definitely recover from this.

It turns out that from January 2019 to November 2019 the price of all coins went up, and surprisingly it was almost doubled
The increase here. The price of XRP here has decreased, but the decline in XRP prices is still fairly normal not too far the
difference. In my opinion XRP will soon rise in 2020. With a comparison of prices This is a sign that the bull run will begin later
this year and will last until the halving bitcoin event. Hopefully in 2020 it can go towards the ATH price as in 2017.

I only use XRP to move my assets between exchanges. So i am not really care about XRP price, actually as investment. Not really deep too about know it as coin only about controlled by Banks. Usually i only concern about coin that i still hold now as an investment.

It's a good sign that the market is increasing day by day despite of those projects that were turned out to be scams, still a lot of people are being interested in cryptocurrency.

XRP although didn't go up, still its price getting stable so far, not pump and dump scheme, although not a fan of XRP too, still its a big help especially if I wanted to sell my asset immediately as I can receive it fastest.

I am also surprised that this kind of XRP coin has a slightly unfavorable record, not following the flow as it should.  even though this XRP is often rumored to be in partnership with banks and other large companies.

And still people are complaining about the low price of bitcoin and ETH.
They make FUD's and different kind of pessimistic threads without even looking clearly.
Thank you for reminding that to them.

I guess there are still greedy people wherever you go.
XRP though, even with much usage it seems like if it having a hard time to take a big pump from all of that usage. Maybe it needs more demand.

To be very honest, In the last year, I expected more price rise of the Bitcoin, I think this year 2019, would bring more positive move towards this platform, but it doesn't happen as per my expectation, I also had a hope that Ethereum could make this market more stable which also didn't make any change, But the most frustrating issue for the litecoin, day by day it's getting worse than ever, like many people, I also invested here in 2017 but from then it always makes me disappointed with a lower trend of price. but I have a belief that Bitcoin and Litecoin price will rise within this year again.

That's because they don't have a capped amount of volume and whenever there is a demand the value of the particular coin goes up but with ripple it's not the same because the developers may just release more coins in the market thus having no affect about demand. I have invested in Ripple once and cashed out before it sank back again they are really clever as they can easily manipulate the price and cash out at peak thus earning huge amount of profit, Mark my words there will be a huge pump for ripple once again in order to cash out.

Whoa it's been a long year. Glad to see that most popular coins received quite a boost. As for XRP, well it is a medium instead of a coin designed for profit so I don't really see anything weird for it. It'd rather be weird instead if price actually surged to new highs though. It is still a great coin nonetheless as a mode of transaction when you immediately want to convert your assets. It's just that it's purpose wasn't really the same as what other coin does.

Most of the coins from the past few months grew their value a lot already and this is a proof that the market is already recovering. Although XRP fell down a bit, we cannot really consider it as a failing coin already, we just need wait and its value will recover or grow more soon. If you are investing on coins, you should make sure the price is low before buying and high if you are selling so that you can make the most from it and gain lots of benefits from it.

It's really good to see that there is a huge increase on top coins this year. However, the little decrease in the price of ripple isn't a negative thing. I still see an improvement since people are now adopting it for it as a mode of payment. I'm sure that its price will still strike high in the coming months because people prefer to use it because of the instant transaction that it offers.

Seeing those increased in just a couple is really motivating to invest more on cryptocurrency and even thou it took time to increase but stil a huge profit if you have bougt a lot. That's why buying in cheap is really practical and definitely a huge profit will come in the end.

And investing in XRP is really bad in my experience since i have lost a lot after buying in cheap and it goes much cheaper but i think it will pumps up when bitcoin reach ita ATH again.

Ripple seems to have gone against the flow here lol. Though a centralized coin may very well follow a different trend from the rest of the market. And the figures show that we're currently on a recovery stage already and the market has already shifted from the extended bear season. I wonder why some people are still all too gloomy and pessimistic about it. We're currently in a way more better spot compared to last year.

It's a shitcoin  whose price was over manipulated and ignorant people rushed to hold bags and the clever ones dumped the coins to them. I don't think it will get the price  glory to had in 2017 again

I see that most coins has an improvement in this month of November 2019 that all of them raised it's price, except for XRP maybe because it is not as good as before that it lose potential to increased it's price and couldn't catch up to the price of ETH. I always thought that XRP is good way to hold for a long term because it has a huge price in the year of 2017, but since i realized the price of XRP does not increased i started to lose some confidence in holding it a little longer.

I didn't realize that bitcoin price went quite high from last january.

And as for xrp, people were always dumping them. I don't really bought them for trading. It's a surprise even with the daily volume that huge, for the past few months the price was only around 25-30ish cent and drag on till now. At least it has its good and bad days. I'm not gonna invest in them tho. Considering how the prices was, kinda hard to believe it will break the current price with how bad its track record.

Looks like LINK has had the most price growth Year to date and it outperformed Bitcoin. I think it's safe to say that LINK is the only big cap cryptocurrency that has performed better YTD. If there's one thing I'm not surprised is XRP. With the continuous dump of XRP by Ripple Foundation, Ripple wouldn't move much. BNB too went as high as $40 ( That's an 8x increase). In general, Bitcoin and Altcoins performed better than they did in 2018.

PS: @OP, Most of the coins listed, their BTC value growth is around half their USD price growth. Their USD value is higher thanks to Bitcoin's growth this year.

If you do have just diversified on these pile of coins in the list then you would end up on having profits on 1 year time thats if you do able to held up until this day.
Only 1 do failed up to increase which is XRP.I dont know on whats the actual reason but it isnt just a new thing for a coin to decrease its price.
We might tripled or doubled the entire caps volume but doesnt mean that all coins are doing pretty well.These low prices arent that surprising.

Xrp deserve that price for long time from now ... people has losing trust on them even some xrp investor calling them as a trash project with too much shady deals during this year , i wouldn't surprised even if when bitcoin continue to move up to $20,000 but ripple stand there or left behind even worse.

I know people now thinking that the next altcoin pump should be xrp to double up! Becareful... it's not that simple to decide which one would go up when you compare all of them.

This coin is centralized! It should explain everything why! The foundation is the one who control the whole thing include the price!

Well, I think it's already alarming because XRP still drops down and it's almost the end of the year. I'm afraid that XRP can no longer recover its price and many investors might have lost a lot of money. It's for you to decide whether you will sell it or still hold it until the end. Since before I already hate that centralized project that sudden pump and dump even bitcoin will continue rising up. Well, I still stick on bitcoin whatever happen, that is my top of priority.

I expect the same thing to happen with BCH but it survived for now but in future we will see that BCH also will slowly fade away from investor's interest.If anyone holding XRP for the next bullish trend understand that it may not happen with it again even in 2020 which increases the price of bitcoin due to bitcoin halve next year since already more centralized coins like XRP popping out so the total market cap of centralized coins will get scatter more.

That's not an alarming situation for XRP nowadays, because as of the latest updates this has now gained a positive changes. Lately xrp went to $0.3 each and it's now building its momentum toward upward trend which could possibly go beyond $0.3 or more. The rest of the list has now gained so much and I think when true bull run will happen same with what 2017 has, all these prices will possibly be doubled, tripled or even quadrupled.

Those kind of bull run won't happen again i think, that was manipulated by the whales when XRP and XLM doing beyond imagination bull run back then in 2017. And right now it's not worth for choosing xrp as an investment. But as a payment xrp is good. I'm sure xrp will survive longer as a payment services because it's partnership are big companys and i'm also think xrp focusing their segmentation is just for payment just like banks.

Ripple
Date of ATH: 1-7-2018
Current Price: $0.30 | 0.00003212 Ƀ
ATH Price: $3.40 | 0.00022465 Ƀ
% from ATH: -91.15%
%to ATH: 1135.29%
Days Since: 667 days

This is the current ATH stats of XRP, how the mighty has fallen, but we all know how the Cryptocurrency can be, we could be laughing now and when we wake up in the morning, we see it at number 2 in the market cap, bigger coups has been achieved in the past

Mostly all are increasing except for XRP. I haven't bought xrp yet but I think its also a promising coin. Bitcoin got the first spot and its indeed the very first coin as it had the highest price now. I have bought bch a little though, and as I see it now its really amazing how it grow. I hope everything will be doing great to make is more happier as investors and users of these coins.

Yeah I noticed this one to ripple maybe people are being doubt to invest to this project because its controllable by the bank but if the price go backto $1 terretory you will give a good return but right now I dont have any plan to invest to ripple.
Regarding to other altcoins I see a good increased specially to my favorite altcointhe BCH.

Didn't notice that it was already that huge of a difference with just months of bitcoin market.
I though the whole year the lowest was 6k USD but yes, I do remember it falling by that price although it didn't really took that long before it could rise again to a better price.

Ethereum though seems to be having a problem making it back to larger than $300.
I remember what Vitalik said about the value of it never reaching $1k again. Looks like he is right.

That's normal considering the fact that there is plenty of uncertainty when it comes to the development roadmap. I'm of believe that the price wouldn't hover above the $100 mark if there wasn't POS accumulation happening.

I don't think Vitalik would ever say that, especially with how he has been distancing himself from the speculative side of crypto.... maybe you have seen an imposter account on social media trying to deceive people.

I still remember those days when we wake up and seeing XRP on second place. However, that days is gone for long now, to be fair almost all Altcoins have gone -80/-90 from their ATH.

I guess investors are very reluctant now to even shed a penny for XRP because they know that this coin has been used for pump-and-dump and have been called the bankers coins.

Although we haven't much from XRP this year, there are some news that XRP will be used by a popular money remittance company which will be a reason to make the XRP known by the people not just the bitcoin. There are pretty valuable changes in the market these days specially on their prices, could it be the indicator? as we are approaching the end of the year.

Although XRP has not shown much growth this year but i personally don't invest in it due to being centralized currency have less chances of price surge to high levels in future and company can anytime make decision that can infleuence negative impact on prices but reports have shown many investor attracting towards it and we might see pumps next year.So waiting for right time.

This year, we have seen a lot of signals that this year will be the year wherein the institutional money will finally enter the market for crypto, it was predicted by experts that this year will be a game changer for the crypto market as the year 2018 has been proven that there's great direction and increasing of hodlers wherein they think 2018 will be much higher compare to 2017.

But, crypo like BTC and ETH has been hurting those investors, wherein we have a bad start early this year so there are investors who had already gain have been moved their ventures to other kinds of investment, leaving only those hoders behind. But still we are believing that in the upcoming year, will start a good one.

XRP will go down to zero eventually when people realize what that is. USDT will too. People are just getting caught up with it for a while now and for example BSV got delisted and just like that USDT is getting delisted from many places as well, soon XRP will as well. Why was XRP liked so much?

Because, the company behind it, Ripple was working with many banks and many financial corporations and people wanted to support this coin but there is no dividend, there is no profit sharing so at the end of the day people will realize no matter how big Ripple gets it is not about XRP, it is Ripple profiting from it.

So of course, that stops the price range and people do not buy it anymore as much as they used to. It would have gone down even more if the price wasn't manipulated by the Ripple team so much.

If we compare the situation with the cryptocurrency market in 2018 and at the present time, then there is definitely nothing in common, because last year the entire cryptocurrency market lived one life and reacted to Bitcoin pricing.  But as of today, since the beginning of 2019, the entire cryptocurrency market has been in a bearish trend, and Bitcoin managed to rise above $ 10,000 until May.  But as far as signals are concerned, I am inclined to trust this type of information, because in most cases it is a manipulation of the minds of traders.

I repeat what I always repeat - the whole point is at your entry point. As with altcoins and bitcoin. January 2019 was an ideal month for buying cryptocurrencies, further, as we see, it was possible to sell really high.
This attracts the cryptocurrency sector to investments from other sectors, with quick explosive profits. What other assets in the world can boast of similar results?

  Holding shit coins is not good idea as when you are investing its your most important duty to k is about the potential of the coin if you will ignore and buy useless coins then after few years holding you will regret spending your money and your time too. It’s good to buy only good coins lie bitcoin so holding is important but only coins that is profitable only then you vs  hope to get profit as 2017.

that is a serious speculation -or should i call it an accusation ?-

i do follow the ripple development since the beginning eventhough i do feel there is something wrong with their partnership with some large mainstream corporates/government banks that shows they are developing the coins seems like centralized.
but still it takes more than just that kind accusations to drag ripple price down to the ground as low as even worthless , makes no sense.

give us stronger valid evidence about your speculation, maybe we can discuss further in hope to get some lights about this.

Wow, who say that the cryptocurrency market is not growing then if all these coins listed have experienced this tremendous growth, most especially bitcoin, I think that this growth is really a very encouraging one especially in this bear market time when all altcoins are failing, and if in this bear market, altcoins are failing while these ones are growing, I think that they will be among the list of the coins that we should expect to grow extremely high in the next bull run for altcoins.

This is also another clue to those who are looking for the projects to invest in ahead of the next altcoin season, it is very clear that these coins will really make that list. The coin that is still very much painful to me is bnb, I dint get to know about its potential very well until it had an extreme growth already.

I think ripple not have good development or real adoption this year, as they want at the beginning ripple was want to be banking coin, but we cant see right now what bank thats adopt ripple.

I have never invested in XRP before. I did take an interest in it around the time it topped Ethereum in the Coinmarketcap list and became the second-best cryptocurrency. But, that didn't last for long as Etheruem still went back to that position and Ripple fell back to the third with a market cap that is over $8 billion less than Ethereum market cap. That doesn't mean I have lost interest, I'm still looking into it and I might invest if what I have been seeing is true.

Lately, Ripple has been securing a lot of positions and partnering with other platforms like MoneyGram (heard they will be buying shares of $30 million from MoneyGram) if that's not enough, they even opened an office in Washington, D.C., with plans to strengthen their advocacy efforts. They also added more clients like Standard Chartered, American Express, etc. I have seen a prediction that prices will go up to $8 or even $10 very soon.

From this reports it shows that $Xrp has not been performing well in 2019 as compared to other coin who had an impressive bounce back within this year. This is a clear indication that investors that invested in Xrp are already lossing faith in the coin and are not ready to hold for long term purpose as they did in 2017 when it recorded an all time high price.  With Xrp latest partnership with top financial companies there is hope of it attaining another all time high price in no distant time

Not really the best month, a lot of cryptocoins stays at the bottom, maybe just several projects gained a few %. I hope that BTC halving will provide new impulse for valuable growth of several alts.
Ripple had a bank growing partnership this year, but I think the main problem of XRP is that dev`s really making a bad reputation of themselves with "throwing" new and new portions of coins to the market. This action can`t really make a price of Ripple a high one.

so far, people who have managed to make a profit in investing in XRP are likely to occur in 2017, after which the price has dropped dramatically to date. pretty good for you if you don't have XRP even more so when the price is still around $ 0.4. XRP coins used to be quite interesting, but at the moment I am a little lacking in interest. maybe a good partnership is not enough to develop the price of this token. One of the reasons why I lack interest is because of what is happening right now, XRP has not made any recovery from the beginning of the year, even the price has dropped slightly.

but on the other hand, I started to pay attention to BCH prices. seeing its development from the price of $ 154 to reach $ 294 this month, it's quite interesting. I might pay more attention to this coin than ethereum.

They seem to don't learn what is the real effect of inflation that's why Ripple is still not growing. Well, what could we expect to a stable coin? Especially they have been used widely with most of the banks. Unlike the other altcoins which is following the trend of Bitcoin, thus when the market is moving these altcoins will move too.

This is a reality! When we are running behind lots of altcoins to make a good and quick profit, then this list proving that the only Bitcoin is the best investment in crypto! I have no complaints about Ripple. Because, at the end of last year, when the crypto market falls down in a massive bear run, Ripple price grown very well, it hit 0.45$ and every holder, traders were very happy about that. Right now XRP price in red, but everyone knows this is not for a long time, the price will be back when the time comes.

I think instead of creating too much confusion by adding up a lot of coins it is better to stick on one such as BTC which you can see showing up a high return in a very short period of time.

There is a huge reason why XRP will never be big and that is centralization.

Ethereum for example has a leader, it is not an owner, but a leader which is Vitalik but even if Vitalik wanted to he can't change ethereum the way he wants to, he needs help from users, from exchanges, from miners, basically everyone has to agree on what Vitalik says, but ripple is not liked that, it is a premined coin that is basically in the control of some idiots who run a company and just uses xrp for transactions to make it look like it has a volume and if they can't they just send money to each other to make the volume look bigger.

There is no place for centralized currencies in crypto world and XRP is just steady and not gone down because it has a huge millions of dollars worth backing behind it.

Honestly I am not a fan of XRP from the start they introduced it to the market because there are so many negative feedbacks about XRP before that already happened now. I think it is create too make some confusion and in price changing purpose of every coin. But I think if we want to grow we need to focus in the coins which have a good opporunity like BTC and ETH.

Only the XRP down base on the list that you gave on us but XRP is sti potential and for sure ti will rise and become more than $1 again this year maybe or for sure high chance happen in 2020. But the coins now is more good value compared to the first month of this year and I want more improvement that happen to the price and not to decrease like in 2018.

Honestly, we all talk about how ripple is not a proper coin and it doesn't deserve going up and so forth but we are all forgetting one thing that bitcoin cash and bitcoin sv doesn't deserve neither.

Bitcoin cash was created literally because miners realized the way bitcoin is developing makes bitcoin transactions cheaper and faster (thanks to segwit) and miners decided to make their own coin so that maybe they could make money from that, of course it worked out well for them since bitcoin cash is still high on peoples list but that doesn't change the fact that it should not be there.

Bitcoin sv was purely created because idiot Craig Wright wanted his own currency and he got it, it should not be that high at all, it should not be in top 100 if you ask me and it is delisted in many places but it is still around.

I don't expect bitcoin has been dropped at that time for january i think also its almost same as now the price has nothing been change as i thought.

January 2018 until may 19 is time to get opportunity to buy bitcoin for longbterm hold for sure people grab that opportunity have an huge earnings profits the currenct orice increase.
For xrp I think possible to get stake that coin if the ethereum get back strobgly increase their price value in coun market because I still believe altcoins stable if the queen is get is also stable.

But we have passed May already, it looks like we lost such an opportunity.

No, forget about XRP to make another peak again ( way back last 2017). Remember that XRP is a centralized coin, everything is controlled which we can't expect that this coin will move higher as it was before even ETH will move high back then. I'm not sure if this makes an alarming cause I know that people are more focus on Bitcoin and other decentralized coins.

Even though XRP is a centralized cryptocurrency, it still rely on the law of demand and supply. We have another chance right now to buy cheap altcoins and also bitcoin because the market is still under the bearish market and the best thing to do when the market is bearish is to buy good cryptocurrencies that are on sale or on a cheap price and hold them until the next bull run.

Dude what are you talking about? The market has gone up since the beginning of this year. Almost all coins are already on a recovery state. The market isn't bearish at all. Or haven't you been paying attention? Ripple would probably make its own recovery and being probably the only centralized coin of value. But in general, we're in a good stage right now. It's still good to accumulate coins at this stage if you're looking at a long term goal. But the best time for that would've been a few months ago.

I'm also not a fan of XRP but I don't think it will literally go to zero. Unless the project is abandoned or SEC sue them, in that case the investors don't have a chance but to dump them and exit.


As long as the behind people behind can make tons of money, I think banks and any other financial corporations will support it because it's a win-win situation. But for bitcoin maximalist, XRP will be just another altcoin floating in the market and shouldn't even be considered as a threat but just a pump-and-dump scheme coin.

sometimes I feel surprised at this XRP, a coin that ranks third CMC can not compete with other coins, even though this XRP is often reported by the Developer to join this company and that.  even now I feel that I have no desire to trade this XRP.

I believe that XRP could still be a good coin among the others but something we can't deny the fact that it won't be like what it happens last bullish season. Yes, they have a good team, supportive developers but the market has changed already and that is a big consideration we'd like to see today and the coming days. Investors never look for those dead coins instead, they look something that could give them returns and I believe that XRP can give it. But looking into its price, we're not sure that it will go higher.
