It looks like Ethereum whales are trying to get it back to the second place since the price rose a lot.
I am not worried about it since i believe ETH is THE coin of the future since it has the best functionality.
Ripple passed Ethereum market cap, but circulating supply of Ripple is 38,739,144,847 coins and Ethereum
is 96,722,031 coins. Maybe market cap is passed but I doubt that ripple can come close to Ethereum price.
When ripple comes to $100, and maybe it will one day, Ethereum will be worth more then $10k.
Functionality of Ripple is in connection between banks, Ethereum will be platform of the future where most
of the apps are developed. People needs to have their own conclusions what is better from this two.
