Prominent Analyst Claims That It’s “Do or Die Time” for Ripple (XRP) (https://www.newsbtc.com/2019/04/27/prominent-analyst-claims-that-its-do-or-die-time-for-ripple-xrp/)

It stated that much of XRP holders were disappointed because of it being stagnant while Bitcoin and other large cryptocurrency have a large gain.


It seems holders are getting impatient.  Does this imply that developer are losing their grasp in this project?  Are they losing their market influence  to their competitor?

to be honest i don't see any difference in XRP that is new! it has been having the same trends as it always had for as long as it existed. the same pump and dump and death until next pump trinity!
every now and then the team pumps it hard by spending a lot of money on the market and on the internet hyping their useless centralized token and each time that pump lasts a short time, then as it reaches the maximum they dump it slowly to take out their money and make a ton of profit. then the coin enters its death mode which is what we are seeing now. and it will last until they pump it again.

anybody who is "impatient" or "disappointed",... have been doing it wrong! they shouldn't have been bag holding in first place. :P

I also do not know that exactly are there factors that are causing a fall in price of ripple, one of the popular coins in the crypto space. Ripple has been at hard work to make things change and really help the people by making transaction easier. Another strong factor of the coin is it is widely being adopted by banks, which are otherwise very much critical of cryptocurrency. But the recent fall in its price is only temporary I think. Big thing is coming its way to happen.

I’m also disappointed with Ripple, like many investors, but I still think it will grow because recently there was news that Ripple sold XRP for $170 million in the first quarter of 2019. I think this is a good indicator that Ripple shows in a falling market. The article details this: https://www.cointrust.com/market-news/ripple-xrp-sales-increased-31-in-first-quarter

If the team will continue to workout with this project chance to reverse this current trend will still possible, those frustrated investors will be satisfied with how the team workout and make things still possible for them to recover back, this current situation will be depends with how developers will recognize and make a good solutions to this issue.

Ripple is a centralized bank-issued currency.

It's the same as a virtual credit card or anything of the sort. Their inter-bank protocol could run without a blockchain.

It's one of those projects where the blockchain was inserted just for the hype IMO.

It had to happen now or later. What else can we expect from a purely centralized coin ?
I haven't seen any significant developments taking place with Ripple. The last time XRP had a spike was when bitcoin was at it's bull run.
It looks like the bitcoin bull run is the only thing that increases XRP's price. If that's the case the XRP will surely go to dust sooner or later.
There has to be some kind of active development that keeps people's interest driving towards itself.

I think the investors of ripple is not that patient because they are complaining about how bigger large their volume and the volume of bitcoin. Ripple is still a good coin for me and I am looking forward to buy some of it for the sake of my future. Its not do or die for me in ripple.

I don't think genuine holders and supporters of Ripple should be worried just because it is not mooning when the likes of Bitcoin and Ethereum are doing. Ripple will moon at the right time and I have even witnessed some time when Ripple mooned even amidst bear market when other coins are nosediving.

LOL. XRP holders should feel bad for negative news on social media. Developers have no effect on the market situation but investors want to achieve the fastest results as soon as possible.

ripple like this because of a lot of negative rumors about the project. and because of this, prices cannot rise when yesterday's increase. if you are holding a Ripple you should sell now, because right now you will not be able to get profit from that coin. and I think for whatever reason the ripple won't be able to die, it's hard for coins that have large trading volumes to disappear. because there will be many people who prevent it.

the ripple will never die, stagnation won't be able to make the ripple disappear. even if another drop occurs, it won't be able to kill Ripple. there will be lots of whales that will pump after that.so the point is that when the ripple isn't profitable but in the future there will be a pump. so don't take your eyes off this coin, even though this coin looks bad.

Well it was said that XRP is a bankers coins and it didn't have the support of community. So maybe that's one reason why the price seems to stagnant now while ETH and BTC are making a good run in this semi bull run. But I wouldn't say it's a do or die, it could exist for a long time and occasionally be pump and dump in the future.

Ripple is a very strong and promising coin.  I am sure that if it continues to develop, it will grow in its price.  Because it is very profitable.  It is very important that she does not dwell on the banks.

It reminds me that months ago, not too far from now, when bitcoin fell and stucked below $4000,  people said that it can fall to zero. So, what actually happened with bitcoin, so far? I think the same strategy to spread news, and FUDs applied on Ripple. Consequently, whenever I see such news, not only on Ripple, but also on other good altcoins, I believe it is a signal of rally (very soon after news released)

can you please explain a bit more detailed? you think it will grow in price because it is very profitable? ??? what do you mean exactly?  ;D

I hold some xrp for nearly 2 years now, this coin bores me more day by day.

Bagholders finally realized that the main selling point of this crypto (which was "the banking system will use out platform") was nothing but pure hype created by the team behind Ripple to attract dumb money and investors, and now the holders who fell for hopes and promises are starting to wonder whether they should dump the bags before they become worthless tokens, typical behaviour you see around shitcoins.

However, it does seem like Ripple wants to try something new as they've started to invest in other ventures suchs as the blockchain games industry, so who knows what the future has in store for this crypto.

The truth is large volume coins have made less move in the market lately.. XLM has been another sad story.. Although this coins (XRP and XLM)  boast of a large trade volume, it's been difficult for them to experience any upward movement lately..

That is an expected end for ripple, except for those who chose to be ignorant to how flawed ripple is, there is no logic behind the coin and should not be called a cryptocurrency in the first place

XRP has been one of the worst performer for this year. I don't know what to say for the investors but the performance tells that there's not that much movement for this coin. To the holders of it, I know it is partly disappointing to all of you while looking at bitcoin and other big altcoins to have that significant move. This is the weather of crypto's, some may go through storm while others are going into sunny days. If I'm an XRP holder, I'd worry if it hits $0.1.

Or maybe these holders just want to sell their coins for jackpot profit. It has been a great rally for every cryptocurrency except them? Nah they've made more profits before than now. They should learn how to go with the market not just wait for some big hype then sell their coins.

Ripple coin have strong foundation and it cannot decrease easily the value of it. I like ripple because what ever happen like dump the value of the coins or the market dumped last year ripple still good at price it decreased yes but it is only a little and not decrease very dump so it is not easy to die the ripple coin and that's why I want ripple very much.

Over the next 18 months you are going to see the banks adopting blockchain for making transfers between banks. Either they will adopt Ripple as the favoured solution or they won't. If they do XRP should be able to retains its value, if not it is set for a very nasty correction. I see no good reason for holding it in that circumstance.

What is causing the fall in the price of ripple is that a lot of people including those who made purchase of the coin don't really like it because it is owned by the bank for all I know and they are using the advantage that they have lots of money to buy people to their side, but one thing they don't know is that it can't be done forever and one day people will be tired of the project unless they are able to come up with something good.

it has always been a "do or die" scenario for XRP since it is a useless pump and dump coin and if the owners (the pumpers behind it) forget to keep it hyped and have pumps scheduled it can simply die and be forgotten that easily because it has no other usages to rely on for living.
and so far the team behind it has been doing a good job at scamming people with their 100% premine where they pump their shitcoin then dump their premined coins on the newbies on the market who will then become bag holders of a token that keeps losing its value.

When more people say one coin will be die or fall to zero soon, not only about Ripple, but also for all coins (bitcoin, and altcoins), it is time to see them moving up. Last day, we saw Ripple suddenly pumped, and once again, the theory seems to be right, with one more solid case from latest pump of Ripple. Personally, when I saw such news appear everywhere, I seriously of accumulate more coins (of course, I have to spend time to investigate what's going on with this project).

What do the investor want from a centralized platform? absolutely nothing far from what they are all getting from Ripple now. Let them await the worst from centralize cryptocurrency like Ripple. Remember, Banks will still be Banks, where gains of investors they will like to claim. Have vow to not hold Ripple and will never be part of this coin found of "Pump and Dump."
