Bear market has really dealt with crypto currency and ripple as well, imagine ripple reaching $2 plus during the last year bull run, but bear market has reduce the price so bad, but i guess another bull run is cooking up, let's hope ripple will make a new all time high again.
If you will just depend on ripple is a bank system then ripple will have a satoshi with each token in no time,
come on the purpose of crytpocurrecy is to make people go beyond bank and make their own money in the future!
