Oh jeez, didn't think that Ripple would ever exceed Ethereum to be honest but it just did so... Guess I was wrong.

I would say that personally I can definitely see Ripple being used as an actual gateway to provide a transaction system for banks however I do think the price is a bit inflated as well. I would sell at least half my ripple for now and buy back later if there was to be a fall. Ripple has basically been rising since March and if you see the long term graphs you start to realise that this pump doesn't seem to be a very healthy one.

i wouldn't call >3300% rise in 40 days as "a bit inflated" that is called a "big ass bubble" Cheesy
and in my experience whenever people are talking about "holding an altcoin" that usually is a good Que to start thinking about some exit strategy because the selling time is getting close.

i think if banks want a faster transaction they will start their own internal blockchain system (which they are already doing) and not rely on another altcoin which they can not fully control.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip.
Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

Yes, you're right, I would say that it is a bubble.

However you have to look at the context, sometimes a pump isn't necessarily just a bubble. Even a coin which is pumped to 500%+ in a day might have very good reasons, for exmaple some sort of ownership change, going from beta to actual version of the software etc. But I agree with you, Ripple is seeming like a very big bubble right now, great time to sell tbh. But I'm not sure whether this is going to be the ATH yet... The craze might even continue for longer.

Oh yes I'll hold my XRP (Ripple coin) as long as it takes. Based on the news and articles I've read I really think this coin has a big potential in the cryptoworld that's why I'm keeping this coin and hold it for a couple of years.

All altcoins have there potential to become successful even they have a low price for now we can see ethereum in the pass years have a low price also and then after few years in just go up without any signal maybe this is what will happen to some altcoins that will pump quickly so better to invest.

It's an extreme bubble fueled by Japanese FOMO and uninformed investment:
https://medium.com/@coin_and_peace/new-wave-of-japanese-investors-are-fueling-the-great-altcoin-bubble-a504383172ff

They are buying it from "exchanges" like "Mr. Ripple" ffs

Bubble!  
Trading rationally,  we can keep bubbles smaller and together improve the state of crypto. We can reduce the amount of squeezes and forced liquidation victims due to such  market manipulation and hysteria / gambling


1.
$9 billion distributed
$15billion for ripple labs inc. company

2.
"Lock in rumor" : Bad attempt to pump more,
when even $9 billions is too much and there should be a clear plan,
 not allowing any rumors.

3. CODE: Ripple code saw several times times fewer developers (contributors) than Ethereum, even Dogecoin.
(and 20 times fewer than Bitcoin -  http://coingecko.com ).  
But each contributor may be important,  and Volunteers, not hired,  are more independent.

4. Business:
SWIFT earns  $0.7 billion/year in revenues but only $0.02 billion in net profits.
 (https://www.swift.com/about-us/financials )

How many banks did politely leave discussion with ripple already without publishing that?

5. Popularity (low)

Yeah, but Ripple was started 2005.

It's not something you just catch up to.

I will hold my ripple coin or XRP. Because I see the potential of this coin I think I will hold for 1-2 years depends on how much will increase the price. For sure those people have XRP will earn a lot of money after a few years but you need only patience to get that. Because no coin have exact date when thay pump they all we need is patience. I will buy more XRP so I can make a lot of profit. Hold your XRP guyz dont sell it.

Obviously and clearly a BUBBLE!

There is no reasonable thing to explain how the hell Ripple garbage exceeded Ethereum in market cap value....Interesting really. I don't know what to say.

I agree with most of the people here, its already in the final stages of a bubble. I think it will soon crash down hard.

So they just recently made 333million new coins from how i understand it. But i also read that somehow decreased something. Very confusing as to why people wqnt to hold something the devs can just make more of like that. Seems like you would lose out long run

It's nice to ride the XRP wave, but I am treading carefully. I, too, feel that it might drop soon. So, not holding XRP for long.

Before this, I always said ripple is some is just another shit coin that only build for dev profit, especially when they add more millions coin. But now, I know I am wrong.
So many regret that I am not hold it earlier.

 no worries, not your fault. Huge misinformation campaigns. Between it is only getting started.

In less then 2 years Ripple RCL+XRP can easily move atleast 3% of swifts workload which is like 300billion USD

+ numerious other payments, including even ETH DAPP's will be able to use Ripple XRP for settlement.

here source and links :

ETH DAPPS To use Ripple for settlement, win win combination
ETH and Ripple Live demo




so i can easily see multiyear appreciation for this asset. very strong fundamentals. good luck

all these things you described look like pump to be honest because none of the reasons warrant a real demand for the coin and all show FOMO buying the coin to join in the possible price rise. for example ownership change, or sometimes even release of a wallet software or things like that doesn't really change much and we can see from their history that these coins get dumped which proves the pump assumption.

It's not something you just catch up to.

2005 was just talk! the development began in 2011
i see on exchanges from 2013!
ripple company was funded in 2012!

but this is actually raising a pretty interesting question for me at least, and whenever i ask it nobody seems to have any proper answer for it.

these coins that are rising now have been around for years (not talking only about XRP) and nothing has changed about them. everything is almost the same as before but the price is rising.
you can't tell me that people suddenly decided after many years that these pump and dumping altcoins are suddenly good, and all of them at once!

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip.
Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

"The predecessor to the Ripple payment protocol, Ripplepay, was first developed in 2004 by Ryan Fugger,[18][19] a web developer in Vancouver, British Columbia.[20] Fugger conceived of the idea after working on a local exchange trading system in Vancouver, and his intent was to create a monetary system that was decentralized and could effectively allow individuals and communities to create their own money. Fugger's first iteration of this system, RipplePay.com,[21] debuted in 2005 as a financial service to provide secure payment options to members of an online community via a global network."
