I think we can expect the growth of Ripple in the near future. Ripple announced the investment in start-ups which will operate on the basis of the XRP token.
Thus, more projects will be transferred to the Ripple platform, which will lead to an increase in the cost of the token.
Ripple now has a new strategy, they invest money in companies with micropayments that offer different products or platforms. Thus, they deviated from their main statement: the crypto currency, which banks and financial institutions will accept.
Let's see what happens in the future.
