Could Ripple XRP replace bitcoin before it is widely accepted? If ripple allows users to send money instantly and almost fee free, with a pretty and easy to use UI. Plenty of money to burn on advertising and reputation building. Business and Financial connections likely to get them accepted on large merchant sites. Why would the average person have any interest in Bitcoin?
More important could Ripple become controlled by business or government?
I'm not suggesting any of this is fact. Just wanna hear the opinions of people that actually know stuff.
I think that Ripple will be able to press the bitcoin and take first place in terms of capitalization and popularity. Moreover, we understand that the crypto market is still very manipulative, and little depends on us ... Bitcoin is a popular coin that is trusted by a huge number of people. Anything can happen ..

I think that most of the people in this thread still chose BTC, probably it was done by all the people who said something here, because today Ripple is certainly a good project, but it is clearly not BTC and it pleases, because it is proven.

I would not invest in Ripple as it is not decentralised, not open and there is no proof of work. Also supply could increase anytime. Also does the token not have a clear utility. If you can explain the utility please do so. Bitcoin will remain the elefant in the room. What I do not like about Bitcoin is the concentration of more than 90% of Bitcoin with the top 4 holders. Well, although I do not know too much about ripple but I see a lot of people complain and freeze a large amount of money in ripple when they invest in it, value and development does not seem so ideal, it can maintain the position as the present is really a surprise. While bitcoin has very strong development and is supported by many people, its position speaks to all its potential, so there is no reason to skip bitcoin and choose ripple, a clear difference Bitcoin already popular with coin which has the highest prices and increasing development to generate much more profit increase that is very capable of making it a valuable main coins which continue to afford to be a coin a mainstay in future. For security and long-term, of course, bitcoin is a very good thing, there are many countries that legalize bitcoin like Japan, Germany, South Korea, Iran and so on, I believe that bitcoin is the safest coin than ripple or the others.

Of course I will choose Bitcoin first. This is the obvious choice. Bitcoin is the main force of the cryptocurrency market. Its value is decisive for all alternative coins. Nevertheless, Ripple recently gave a good price jump up. I will buy more XRP.

It been almost 5 years since this thread was created and faced with the choice of XRP and BTC, I'll chose BTC over XRP a 100 times over. With the recent price movements of XRP, it's same to say it's just a pump and dump coin. Also, imagine how much the price of BTC has gained in comparison to XRP, it goes to show that BTC is a better mode of payments

I will still choose bitcoin as my main digital asset. bitcoin is an important coin that must be saved. even though the ripple is also good to invest. and I might invest a little for ripple.

Comparison of Ripple with bitcoin is pointless because both are different cryptocurrency. Bitcoin is most trusted and tested cryptocurrency and known as father of all cryptocurrency.

The cost of bitcoin overestimated. But even in spite of this, there is no good coin for the alternative. Ripple is not a competitor, but simply one of the possible coins, which all the same will breathe into the back of Bitcoin.

These are completely different coins. BTC is the standard for the entire cryptography industry, her father. BTC is the most stable cryptocurrency. XRP is a centralized coin, it contradicts all the bases of crypto. I do not advise anyone to invest in this coin. Select BTC - this is the most reliable investment from all crypto-conversions.

I always think that the most advisable thing is to have an investment insured in bitcoin as it is the most stable currency in this volatile market, and when you have at least 1 btc you can invest in ripple, which is also a very good currency but centralized, but if they reach agreements with different banks will be a really useful currency.

I believe that Bitcoin should not be compared with any coin. Because bitcoin is a leader and widely popular. This is the first and best coin in which to always invest. And some do not even know about the ripple that such a coin exists.

Will XRP replace bitcoin? A centralized fake will replace the king of cryptocurrencies? Are you for real?

I would choose Bitcoin because there is not any crypto market worth enough and is more valuable than Bitcoin. The ripple is a well appreciated currency and has taken the position of ETH on coinmarketcap for some time. But when compared with Bitcoin investment i think the gap is too large.

The BTC project today has a very large support of the people and the world community, so I don’t see any reason to choose anything here, I’m sure I make a choice in favor of the BTC project because I don’t accept XRP as a normal project

I chose both, bitcoin and ripple can be a good investment for profit, but for the most part of the money I invest in bitcoin because it is the most powerful coin.

Ripple will never replace bitcoin, for most people in the crypto community, bitcoin is a big trust. Ripple, unfortunately, can not be so reliable, it is under the control of the founders, so he does not trust.

This coin is already quite common, it is still included in the top 3 coins by capitalization. Replace Bitcoin will Ripple or anyone else altcoins in the next few years.

I'd invest in Bitcoin. Investing in Ripple does not give me any benefits from holding it for years, if I hold it for 1 year the coin could be worth a small fraction of the purchasing price because of the reputation it has.

Bitcoin is better, there are so many coins that have claimed that they are better than bitcoin but in the end it turns out they were not even half as good and ripple is no exception. bitcoin is easily the best coin in the whole of the cryptocurrency community, if you are going to compare it to altcoins you should at least name better coins with better projects

Neither. XRP will no longer show pirouettes, as in the good old days, along with TRX and XVG. And bitcoin is still trying, but also, I think, dies. Probably, medium-low coins will occupy the top.
