Hi, one cant`t disagree that Ripple just became the second largest Cryptocurrency by market cap. Ripple would replace Bitcoin to become the preferred worldwide cryptocurrency, so the price increased inversely to that of Bitcoin.
You are confusing something, ripples are the third by market capitalization after bitcoin and ethereum. All data is publicly available on the site coinmarketcap.com. Although I am not a fan of this crypto currency, I think that the ripples can increase to $ 2 if the market returns to its previous highs.
