This is concerning. People, including the FT, confusing Ripple (the “company”) with XRP (its “token”). New investors appear to believe XRP is the ticker symbol for Ripple stock. Well, it’s NOT! It’s like buying iPhones from Apple. Sure, less iPhones in circulation will increase demand and price, but you are not getting interests in the company. The truth is that XRP has no useful purpose. Good for those making money off of this surge, but concerned about the uneducated investments being made here.
The truth is that you are uneducated dumhass, that it even can not read front page. XRP has purpose, and it much more useful than BTC or LTC read small fee higher transaction rate sigh. same shit from early pages, "ripple not XRP, XRP not ripple, dont buy.....shitcoin....premined......banks......" ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh everybody run.... this thread from start to end is a good starting point for newbs to learn about crypto investing/FUD/Logic/Hype/..... a funny read, but an informative one at that!! I will be pointing my investment students to reading this thread..... a great (funny also) read regarding crytpo lies vrs good project etc..... **copy/paste fudsters are the funniest**

there is no need in ripple on coinbase. they should scale up at least to be able to handle current traffic (please coinbase!!!). and its very unlikely for ripple to be on coinbase with policies like minimum activation payment or centralization.

There really is a possibility that XRP is going to dominate more than BTC in the future. I have read interesting articles over the past few days regarding XRP and how banks are going to make it more popular. A friend not very much interested in btc already asked me about it as they saw on tv.

How do you exaggerate reports of someone's death, by the way? You either died or you didn't haha. But anyway, on point of Ripple, I'd be very careful about tweets like that, very cryptic and prone to a very wide range of definitions. Top five money transfer worldwide means what? Processors? Remittances? Or just intermediaries? And what does implementing Ripple token in their payment flow system mean really? Are they using Ripple or are they not? Why would someone use Ripple in addition to what they use instead of just switching over to Ripple only?

If it will be implemented for full use, then users will only benefit from crypto currency. But I completely agree with you that you need to switch completely to Riple, and not to combine two platforms.

I would like to hear people's opinion on XRP/Ripple. News, Trends, Concepts, Technical Issues... anything pro or con that might be indicative of it's survival or growth opportunities in actual real world use cases. Or things that indicate it's failure.
Here is my two cents to start it off, starting with a Disclaimer. Disclaimer: I have weighted portfolio of Bitcoin (5 - 10%), Ethereum (70 - 80%), XRP/Ripple (10 - 25%). I'm a HODLer, not a Day Trader,a nd reportionments are done rarely based on trends. My purpose of this post is to try and determine whether a repportionment of Ripple is appropriate. And I am currently of an equal mind. 33% to lower stake. 33% says stay hte course. 33% says increase shares. So real certainty here I tell ya! LOL Hoping someone will say something here to un-jam my mental logs.
My current facts as "I" see them....
CURRENT PRICE: Ripple is doing absolutely nothing. No real motion in any direction except sideways. Only recent facto that may be contributor is the court case that allowed prior founder (McCaleb) to unload his billions of XRP at a current rate of "0.5% of average daily volume for each day of the week, including weekends and holidays". So hardly anything of much substance, however, the fact that the price hasn't gone down means that there are at least enough buyers to keep the price even.
NEWS: I keep a very steady eye on Ripple, constantly trolling news, webs, boards for info. Again - nothing. Almost a total black hole of current news. The only recent "news" are name dropping tidbits about SBI Holdings in Asia wanting to use Ripple. Microsoft Azure being open to Ripple blockchains. R3CEV hinting at Hyperledger open to Ripple use cases. Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) running a Ripple Blockchain Trial. Press Releases about 42% savings to banks using Ripple. And vague references to Interledger, which is sort of analogous to Hyperledger or Lightening network in a way..... talk, no real world scenarios yet though. And all of this very hypy-vague. Just little tidbit trickles of "News", "non-News" actually, that basically says, "Hey, we're alive."
GENERAL THOUGHTS: I think Ripple/XRP IS still alive, and due to the nature of its business model, is in "secret development" mode. I mean, you won't see news, until you see news, but whe that news does come - it may be a hard break. My opinion is that will most likely be up (obviously - I DO own it), but I guess it could be down, or it might even be just a really really slow up if the news is not dramatic enough that other coins (Bitcoin/Ethereum etc) aren't also releasing big news, and thereby suck up all the investment money that might go into Ripple/XRP - thereby blunting the reaction. However, it could go the other way,a nd we could get good news out of Ripple / bad out of Ethereum/Bitcoin, and the pressure could be exacerbated up. Also- the whole "premined" aspect doesn't bother me that much. With all my crypto investments I am looking primarily at actual eventual use case scenarios to determine value. The 2nd tier money coins (Lite, Dash, Monero etc) are of no interest, and even the Utility coins (Emercoin, Maidsafe, etc) seem a bit too spiky/dodgy and subject to market manipulation/risk to me.
Ripple is obviously a top tier player, but a little lacking in discussion at present. Thought I'd fire up a topic.
Peace, - david

Why don't you tell us all how you really feel? Call it like you see it. I invested $1600 on the 29th of December between Ripplie and Lumens. Today, I'm up $2100 in profit. From an investment side of things, I am not complaining. Matter of fact, I'll be buying more and hodling.

The ripple coin itself is very useful in the banking sector. However, I am a little embarrassed by its centralization. I do not know exactly how to treat this fact. It is necessary to observe for a while, before making a final conclusion. It is now growing very well in price, but it seems to me that this is short-lived.

Banks are actually making the big move in terms of price. Traders are joining in as a result. It seems like a very good marketing stunt as it will be all over the news and might end up being as popular or even more than Bitcoin.

They are saying that it will be the next big coin soon. Because it continue pumping the market of crypto's. And many holder of it saying that they are really eaning huge from this coin. That why many investors are encourage to invest in this coin.

You should check some previous links. Ripple is working towards decentralization At the end of 2018 it should be done
