Ripple will take the place that the team deserves? Next to BTC?

In the trash can of history, yes, probably.

Ripple will take its own place where you hold your bitcoin and send them anywhere you want in under 5 seconds. Just get your 100 xrp now for under a dollar to A.) Activate your account B.) Have enough for transaction fees at 0.0001 xrp per transaction to buy or trade anything and you're set for a very long time. Don't buy millions of XRP like me and make Ripple Labs rich. ;)

Ripple is a Scam.   45% kept by the founder and ripple labs.  It will die.

I don't think of Ripple as a "coin". It's built more to be a payment gateway.

definately no pump and dump althought it might go down a bit now as it has spiked a lot the last days.

prices are still very cheap. banks are showing their interest and if they start using it then it can blow up big time.

Dont see ripple as a coin or as competition of btc because it just isnt. it can even help btc. if ripple gets integrated by banks then everybody will be able to buy (and all other things which has value) btc instantly

You clearly have bought Ripple and want people to pump it more.

I do have xrp but i don care if people buy more or not. xrp will rise mainly due to usage of network so as long as banks will start using them price will rise by itself

Setting aside the usual scam accusations, Ripple's protocol isn't really that great. Their consensus rounds are inefficient and their node system  is very centralized. I can't see how the current protocol would scale, even to a level where it is a serious competitor to Bitcoin.
