Wow! Ripple CEO, Brad, is bullshitting and shilling hard for his company.

[JuniAiko]

1) He claims that Ripple is the only company within the crypto ecosystem that is a real company solving real problem? That's some BS. What about Stellar (which is trying to solve even more real-world problems in 3rd world countries? + decentralized banking and exchanges and it is even supporting dDapps too.

2) And for the investors/traders here, he never explains how increasing XRP use as a bridge between banks, where XRP is bought and sold from and to fiat almost instantaneously (at almost the same price) would boost the price of their XRP token.
For Stellar on the other hand (which has a much lower MCAP), users have to firstly use XLM (and not any other alternatives), and it also aims to function as a bank (which they routinely distributes Lumens collected from transaction to) which encourages the buying of XLM. Stellars also have a growing number of partnership with banks, but they are starting in developing/3rd world countries, and getting wider adoption by the small businesses, small banks and the people themselves; rather than mega-banks like Ripple does.

Ripple is trash, it will survive as long as the banks survive, which hopefully isnt very long. I would not worry about Ripple

[JuniAiko]

As someone have very eloquently explained..

He's not the CEO of a public company, he's not beholden to "the shareholders". He doesn't need to prove the investment value of the token, he needs to prove the viability of his business model!
He doesn't care that you or I or 10,000 other kids own Ripple...his objective isn't to boost the price!

IMO, Ripple do not deserve to be among the top place, to be placed along side the likes of BTC, ETH, LTC, and XLM.

The people being tricked into investing into their XRP token are just there to provide liquidity so that the big companies can use the network and the Ripple company collects the profit.

CEO of XRP > CEO of BCash but they are both dkheads,XRP wants to claim that they are better than any cryptocurrencies out there but the truth they shouldnt be categorized as a cryptocurrency because cryptocurrencies should always be decentralized which XRP is opposing,XRP is like another VISA & MASTERCARD currency which is a digital fiat plain and simple.

XLM is indeed better than XRP that is why the former developers of XRP joined the XLM team because XRP sucks.

Hah ... here's an insider. At this forum, people continually said that Ripple was shit and not a project, and people did not agree, strange eventually turned out to be people who did not believe the obvious things that seemed to be in a prominent place. Well, now enjoy.

RIPPLE:
Your XRP token won't go to the moon, but well, at least it will be stable and hence useful for the banks to use as a bridge to transfer funds between them while you guys help us provide the necessary liquidity.
Hey! We are solving real problems for real companies and big banks!!! Hurray!

That's because they have little interest in what's best for the community and all they care about is lining their own pockets. It's not hard for anyone to see that buying something and then selling it straight away again is going to have little effect on the price because all you're doing is inflating supply and demand by the same amount.

And how much value is transferred between banks? Divided by supply of XRP wil tell you how much it would have to be worth. Too bad this is highly unlikely development.

Ripple and the people that are in Ripple know that it is 100% up to all bankers if they want the coin to be in their company. Banks won't just accept anything.

FUD those "too-big-to-fail" mega Banks that had caused the global financial collapse and suffering of people all over the world, while they got bailed out by tax payer's money which they used to pay themselves big bonuses (even after their failures and crimes), and majority of them didn't see a day in jail -- personally I prefer to see REAL cryptos (supported by a strong non-profit organization, such as Stellar) take over a significant stake of their market, and I will not support a project that is designed to support those financial criminals.

people just don't care about the crypto and its product they just want to earn profits on their investments. ripple was made for the banks so they are using it... investing into ripple is just like making the fun of  decentralization
