WHY IS IT THE GOOD TIME TO INVEST IN RIPPLE (XRP) NOW?

[MillionaireMaker20]

What would u do if you were in the stock market at the early rising stage? Similar concept with our Crypto Market now

=> I would invest in buying shares of penny companies with Cheap Price, Good Product, Unique Idea, Potential Future Value, Strong Foundation of Leadership & Management. This is what I believe with RIPPLE company, their products & leadership. 5 to 10 years from now, the one that survive & booming is RIPPLE

=> We are in the new ERA of the early rising stage of Digital Currencies just like Stock Market has started years ago. It's similar concept & fundamental of investing. Most of people who get rich at that time is to buy Penny Stocks with big potential value & strong foundation companies & hold it.

=> For Long-Term Investors: RIPPLE & ETHEREUM & maybe some others in the top 5 (80% Fundamental Analysis, 20% Technical)
    For Short-Term Investors: Using 80% Technical Analysis, 20% Fundamental with other coins & just pump & dump

XRP was unable to make a breakthrough in the recent years, even when a few smaller banks (like Fidor Bank in Germany) started using it. So why it would make it now or in the near future, when plenty of technologically more advanced coins are out in the wild?

Good Question!! And here is my answer:

Now that Ripple's just been pumped, it's not as good an idea to invest anymore.  That kind of instant growth isn't sustainable.

No need to use caps in the title.

Price might still go up, no news has been published on any major website yet about recent announcements.

It's possible that people are moving money from Bitcoin, Dash, and Etherium and moving it into a cheaper coin. Those other 3 have made big gains and some people may be taking profits and finding coins that have potential to grow more.

That's fine but this isn't anything new. Also XRP isn't the Ripple network itself. Just one IOU what running on it, so the growing adoption of Ripple network not necessary means a big jump in XRP prices. Actually the cheaper XRP means lower transaction costs, therefore it's more attractive for their user base.

[namini]

XRP is not an IOU (with counterparty risk associated to a gateway), it's the native digital asset of the Ripple network with no counterparty risk. You can see on Ripple website they're looking to actively promote it "Ripple is looking for a Director of XRP Markets".

[Chikito]

it is possible, but how about some more decent altcoin of XRP?, and possibly OP can describe the fundamental analysis in this thread, see XRP so rigid, and has a flat ride.

I was going to say this too, if you invest now be prepared to dump fast otherwise you'll loose money.

47+ banks in japan signed up for a pilot program utilizing ripple's consensus ledger, many more in asia are coming on board (5 more banks in canada are on board too). ripple is also a google backed digital asset... regardless of how you feel about it as a "currency", it has a lot of potential.

mcKinsey & co estimates that by 2020 the global payments industry will generate an estimated $400 billion more in annual revenue than in 2016. read more in their global payment report (for 2016). i feel like most people forget that from a banking standpoint, banks process hundreds of thousands (millions) of transactions daily... ripple's market cap makes sense given the industry they're in.

Is this still worth investing in? I would get in for a little.. not so much. Price seems reasonable for a first time investor in this world.

For the financial transaction.

Some financial transactions with the advantage of internet protocol:
Payments are cheaper because the Ripple is not owned by anyone.
Payments faster. Because transactions are automated, the Ripple of payment can be fully resolved in a matter of seconds
Finances are within easy reach. Because Ripple only requires an internet connection. He could provide financial services to billions of people a relic not affordable by the bank.
Financial terinterkoneksi. By creating a joint protocol for the money, the Ripple create the transaction between independent business made easy. This reduces friction and inefficiencies in the financial system.

It's already #3 in market cap, so unless you think it will overtake BTC & ETH, idk..

ripple has always been in the top 5 or worst days top 10 altcoin in marketcap ranking system even when the price was 800 satoshi and lower.
and it has always been a useless altcoin.

what you don't realize is that ripple and coins like ethereum are only up there because they have a very huge supply. so it really doesn't matter if ripple is worth 10 satoshi or 10000 satoshi, it will still be up there because they will release a couple of billion coins if it drops down lower to keep it up.

but that doesn't make it a good investment...

I am seeing speculation about ripple from long back may be last 2 months even I invested on that but not seeing any profit . I hope there will be huge pumping in near future otherwise I will sell for loss .

[psiksenz]

We are still in a very new market and no where near mainstream adoption.  Sure we have had more publicity recently, but the average person on the street knows little to nothing about cryptocurrencies, just watch their eyes glaze over when you mention Bitcoin.

Its never good to sell your coins for a loss unless your coin is just stagnating and you see a good opportunity to jump into another coin that's about to take off.  If you're actively trading, then you can always sell after a big rally upwards (if there's been no major news to drive the price up) then buy back when the price dips down again.

Ultimately, if you're in a coin for the long term and you've done your research you shouldn't be worried when the price of a coin dips down, especially after a big move upwards, it just creates nice support levels for the future when the market takes off again.

The pumping already happened to more than $20b market cap, and a slow decline.

I think the time to invest in Ripple is gone, since the big rise it is far from being a penny stock

I don't think the pump is over. In the long term it will go up to $1 dollar. There is minimal downside from here but the ROI might not as great as other Alt coins.
