[XRP] Ripple Speculation

[JollyGood]

Excellent news but the price has dropped back down to just below $0.24

I hope it goes back to over $0.30 and does not fall below it again, then slowly increases.

XRP on the Brink of Massive Gains as It Races Towards a Key Resistance Level

At the time of writing, XRP is trading up just over 5% at its current price of $0.241, which marks a notable climb from its daily lows of $0.22, and an even more significant climb from its weekly lows of under $0.21 that were set prior to the market-wide rally seen this past Tuesday.

RIPPLE CTO: NO, XRP TRANSACTIONS CANNOT BE BLOCKED

Is Ripple centralized or decentralized? This question has been a widely debated ever since the company launched in 2012. Today, CTO David Schwartz has reaffirmed that the network is in fact decentralized and cannot block XRP transactions, despite what the rumors say.

For those of you who don't know yet, apparently Bitmex is going to launch XRPUSD swap perps on Feb 5th 2020. You can actually trade it now on the testnet of Bitmex.

I think this is huge news however remember what happened when ETHUSD swap perps was added, it was actually what took ETH from $430 to about $80. If you look at the weekly chart you will see some huge bear candles right after it was added. Will XRPUSD be the same?

The issue with XRPUSD is that its at yearly lows pretty much while ETHUSD which was almost $500. So it will be interesting to see what happens in Feb 5th for XRP.

It does not seem as though it will end the month of January anywhere near that amount again.

Maybe next month things will improve price wise and the value might increase. I know all crypto need a boost but XRP really could do with one now...

One thing about Ripple is that when you send Ripple from Bittrex to Ledger, you need to pay at PayPal just to create an account in your hardware wallet, that is not good, why they want to get money from people just for opening an account? a decentralized project won't do such a thing!

WTF? I admit I never sent XRP from Bittrex, but I did from Bitstamp, and I never had to do that. So either its Bittrex, and not XRP thing,
or you're full of shit and spread FUD here...please prove me wrong and provide evidence

You are spreading FUD with your comment and you really should stop it
I have sent my xrp from exchanges like Bittrex to my Ledger and other wallets without using paypal
Paypal has nothing to do with this so just cut it out

We are seeing a nice correction of the alts coins so wouldnt it be nice to see $14 xrp

Ready For Liftoff: Two-Year Downtrend Breakout Could Lead to $14 XRP

A breakout from what appears to be a bull flag or pennant pattern could shock the crypto market with rapid, explosive gains, that could bring the price per XRP to as high as $14 each.

$14 

Exactly how would XRP get to $14? I fail to see how a down trend would like lift the XRP price. I certainly would not be complaining if XRP hit $14 (or just $3 for that matter) but cannot see it happening any time soon. I think it might ride the wave on the next bull run but other than that the idea it would start rising above its all time high (of $3.60) without a bull run just seems highly unlikely to me.

$14 

IKR can you even imagine it 56x
We would all be richer then rich
BITCOIN would 500,000 at this scale.

14$ is really very high amount for the XRP based on what predictions you are predicting the price of XRP will reach to 14$. Most of the potential active coins are decreasing their price a lot in the market if the price of XRP reaches to 14$ then what will be the price of Bitcoin then.

[JollyGood]

I think $500,000 Bitcoin is way off the mark at this point certainly therefore $14 XRP is not on the cards any time soon.

Sorry, that is just my opinion. I want XRP to increase but at the moment it is highly unlike to have more than a couple of cent increments if that for the foreseeable future.

Thats naive...why would XRP rise be tied to BTC in any way? Look at this chart:





That is 40X climb of XRP vs BTC in just 2 months

Xrp needs adoption,  it doesnt have much which brad and co dumped their xrp and its ripple is selling through an IPO. Swift will remain king.
Buy another coin.

maybe, maybe not, you're not Phillip Price so you can't know for sure. It surely has better tech, but in that kind of business that
doesn't mean much because much more is at stake

Back in July 2017, prophets that were HODL since 2013, said that only in 2 years or more we get to near 1 USD. Eventually 1 USD was ultimate target for everyone. Some brave experts said 2 USD in 2018.

As of BTC, same story, 20000 is not what everyone were expecting, at that time 10000 was something unbelivable

As of BTC has to be 500k in order for XRP be 14 USD as well a guess made from nothing, for instance, XRP was 3.60 USD when, BTC was 14500 USD, so, really, using numerology, for BTC is enough to be just 55000 USD to push XRP to 14 USD.

ok Ok maybe not 14$ it as not my prediction but this could be some good news
