XRP Price is not attached to anything, a pure fictional number.
Ripple Inc. sticks any sell price on it as long as they can get away with it.
You can see from 2018 data at times some xrp are removed from supply to easier adjust price, not needed but helpful. (see last page)
It can not be done on a blockchain.
XRP is not crypto, it is digital Money (slaves money).

In 2014 from one day to the next massive increase in marketcap and price or trading volume did not change, CMC ranking did.  2018 almost as much was given away in Bribes as sold, clear as day marketcap is wrong. $535 000 000 xrp sold and tax paid for $439 231 363 xrp given as bribes and added to supply but unsold as no tax paid.  Good laugh the negative xrp supply numbers at times Personal stacks are included in marketcap calculation but are not available to trade freely on open market. Chris Larsen 17.1 Billion XRP Brad Garlinghouse, owns additional XRP tokens Chris' foundation has has 7 Billion and Arthur 3 Billion David 1 Billion Karl-Theodor Maria Nikolaus Johann Jacob Philipp Franz Buhl-Freiherr von und zu Guttenberg unknow amount and Jeb, by court order is allowed to sell $10000 worth of xrp every week of his 5+ Billion xrp stack. Inflation 2016 xrp 2.8% Euro 1.14% 2017 xrp 2.4% Euro 1.35% 2018 xrp 2.05%, Euro 1.73% About 8 Million xrp have been destroyed so far less than 0.002% per year so adjusted figures 2016 2.798%, 2017 2.398% and in 2018 2.0498% inflation. |

No, in anti-utopia environment power outages would be frequent, internet almost non exist and shops without laptops and other electronic equipment closed.
Bartering would thrive and be king, a roll of toiled paper has a lot of value.

I think this hardfork was not needed at all, the market looks terrible, and they also divided society!
Yes the segwit Hardfork was not needed at all and because of it now 50 or so bitcoin forks exist. |

I have strong doubts on that one. I think there was no hardfork coin that has replaced the main one. BCH has a great potential, but the majority of investors are still believing only in BTC. Just look at the market dominance.
Regarding Hardforks  It is not true because Craig Wright doesn´t accept Lightning Network on his true Bitcoin Satoshi Vision, he believes that bigger blocks will solve the problem with scalability  . There is no problem, its a fabricated problem. I believe in freedom and a peer to peer interaction. I dont need want or accept lightning, segwit or other enslaving instruments. |

Regarding Hardforks Hardcore Bitcoiners will never touch Lightning, segwit it has nothing to do with Bitcoin. |

Banks have working agreement with Ripple Inc.
Other than selling the received xrp (bribes) as soon as the agreement allows it banks wont touch xrp and have no need to.
Banks are in the Business of charging fees not pay them.
It almost appears xrp fanatic are the start part or of the promised zombie apocalypse.
We can call it bribes, but in the business world it's just a mutually beneficial agreement. And Ripple are very good at those. They sold more than $535,000,000 worth of XRP in 2018, they can afford to "bribe" a lot more people than they've bribed up until now. I don't think XRP deserves its #2 standing on CMC but I also can't help but predict further growth. Only a matter of time before the whole shenanigans unveils and it heats to court. A good laugh is the negative numbers in the database supply history. So in 2018 on average it inflated by 5 630 072 xrp daily and in in the entire history 8 million where spent (destroyed). Almost as much was given away in Bribes as sold, clear as day marketcap is wrong. |

i don't think you can call such a coin "deflationary" just because its supply is capped. it is like saying grains of sand are deflationary! it is already inflated and they haven't even released all the supply yet!
I think you missed the part where a small amount of XRP is destroyed every transaction. That is why there's 99,991,708,587 XRP available at the time I'm writing this post and not 100B. Keep researching, took me 3 weeks of reading to decide whether to buy.
you can not decide whether or not to buy some altcoin by reading about it and its technology! we are in a manipulated pump and dump market and "research" like that won't help you one bit. That is your opinion and I would even agree with it when applied to any coin that doesn't try to solve a real life problem. But since Ripple is doing exactly that, I can't agree with you. xrp is full of fraudsters and fraud supporters. XRP inflates over 2% a year calling it deflationary is outright fraud, scams of the earth. Inflation 2016 xrp 2.8% Euro 1.14% 2017 xrp 2.4% Euro 1.35% 2018 xrp 2.05%, Euro 1.73% About 8 Million xrp have been destroyed so far less than 0.002% per year so adjusted figures are 2016 2.798%, 2017 2.398% and in 2018 2.0498% inflation. Even Ripple inc. management is distancing itself form such claim. |

........... lets wait on 2021 when bitcoin got halving.
Next halving is mid 2020. Most version of Bitcoin halve, certainly the 3 major (  right leaning,  left leaning and  straight) Currently about 1800 new bitcoins per day in 30 years time 8 per day  |

Currency has no value very little, its purpose is just to move from person to person. A $1 or $2 bill has a value of 4.9 cents and a $5 has a value of 10.9 cents. A $100 bill costs 12.3 cents to make, its value. This has more value as a $100 bill  If you stupid enough you can use a 1oz gold coin for its face value, I am more than happy give you something representing $100 and has a actual value of 12.3 cents for the 1oz gold bullion which is worth USD 1,382.99  |

Ripple is a great investment instrument, they have already made a variety of agreements with a lot of banks all around the world, but I am still a supporter of crypto currencies and do not like coins without a limited supply.
Currency by nature is not and never was an investment. If it secured with watermark, mathematically (crypto) or joe blows signature does not matter. Its been traded for hundreds of years and is meant to move from pocket to pocket thats it, like seashells if you like. A 2 % handicap is like going in casino and invest in Baccara, Crips, Single zero Roulette, Blackjack as house-edge is about same.  |

Two Bitcoin Hardforks (right and left leaning) argue who is the correct hardfork. Hardforking creates trouble, without the 27 Dec. 2017 hardfork Bitcoin cash would not exist and none of the other 50 or so hardforks all because of a hardfork. Down with hardforks, all of them. Huh? The bcash hardfork happened on August 1, 2017? Are you referring to some additional event on Decembr 27? or did you just get the date wrong? Right leaning Bitcoin hardforked on 27 December (Segwit) Left leaning Bitcoin hardforked August 1, 2017 Silver Bitcoin hardforked October 2011 Down whit all hardforks |

I think that of all the crypto currencies Ripple is one of those coins in which you definitely need to invest. This is a working product that banks use. That is, in fact, this is currently the only currency accepted by many banks (about 50) for mutual settlements between them. These banks have already used the Ripple system in interbank transactions.  In addition, Ripple has an excellent development team that understands the needs of the modern banking system. Therefore, their product best meets the needs of banks. This is what guarantees the success of the ripple in the near future. When did a currency become an investment? Yes its so good the lead dev lost (indendioally) beginning of database. Total garbage, Banks have a working agreement with Ripple Inc, no bank has or ever will touch scam XRP tokens and Ripple them-self only extreme rarely. XRP is pure slaves money, i can refuse to establish a connection. |

Bitcoin Cash is on a downward spiral of losing momentum and it is headed for a slow death, just like all the other Bitcoin forks (Litecoin inluded) that don't offer anything much better than Bitcoin's features and capabilities.
Which version a you talking about? The original version, the segwit version.........there is 50 or so versions. |

Big/medium banks are never going to use Ripple, theyre only trying it out and will drop it then make their own technology (not de-centralized!) Blockchain will change how we send money, but not through banks. Theyre completely against de-centralized control of financial system. We need blockchain solutions like Kora ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2876521.0) that are person to person and small business to small business Did you know that Ripple was created before Bitcoin? So Ripple is the first blockchain project, I said blockchain because it is not real cryptocurrency due to centralization, but that doesn´t make this project scam. And maybe thanks to centralization they are so successful with many financial partnerships.   The garbage coming from xrp tarts is phenomenal xrp genesis time stamp is 1.1.2013, yes its the result of a drunken new years celebration. Ripple sells XRP for pure profit; , Ripple gets cash (real money) for XRP. XRP is a security. “It is entirely centrally controlled, operating more like an ETF unit than anything else since the issuer has the capacity to release or absorb (pre-mined) tokens in accordance with their valuation agenda.” When the ledger first launched, the company and its founders owned all XRP. Ripple sells its reserves of XRP or gives them away (bribes ). Ripple is a drink for hobos. Ripple was a fortified wine produced by E & J Gallo Winery[3] that was popular in the United States, particularly in the 1970s. Possessing a low 11% ABV (lower than modern table wines), it was originally marketed to "casual" drinkers.[4] Due to its low price, it had a reputation as a drink for alcoholics and the destitute. It was popular among young drinkers, both underage and college students. It is no longer produced. |

I don't really like the results of coin forks that sometimes don't have the value and are not as expected, other than that the fork that happens in my opinion is not so good, so I suggest looking for other projects that are better not such projects cannot be relied on.
Yes agree the 27 December 2017 hardfork was not so good, should have stuck to the original bitcoin and avoid the 50 forks created because of it. Hardfork = altcoin. |
