XRP beat ETH

[liuqi]

The Ripple is unexpectedly move to huge jump. So Ethereum is replace to third position it is really unexpectable results. But I need a experts solution for future results. I strongly believe Ethereum will reach a second position in soon.

It didn't take long last time for Ethereum price to jump after XRP passed it.

Ethereum really took hard beating the past few months. I would expect it to jump to $400 very fast once ICO season starts again.

[darktt]

It was surpised for me today, despite the fact that I saw situation like that two times, I think ripple will stay top2 for several days at this time, but afterthat it will be dumped for sure, imho now ripple too bumped.

I doubt icos will be as profitable as last year ever again. That was not normal

Anyway, xrp is highly manipulated. Most of the coins are owned by founders. They buy and sell to each other manipulating de price upward or downward as they wish.

Yesterday they were dumping it hard, now they are pumping it.

Ripple Co-Founder’s Token Selloff Accelerates
Crypto entrepreneur Jed McCaleb, now with a rival startup, has sharply stepped up sales of his billions of dollars in XRP holdings


One of the co-founders of crypto startup Ripple holds billions of dollars worth of the company’s digital token, but his continuing sales of the token have dramatically risen over the past few weeks.

Jed McCaleb, who left Ripple a few years ago and is now co-founder of a competing outfit called Stellar, could put pressure on the cryptocurrency by increasing sales of the tokens, called XRP.

XRP, which was created by Ripple, is worth more than $22 billion, making it the cryptocurrency market’s third-most valuable token after bitcoin and ether. In the frenzy of the crypto market that crested early this year, XRP climbed as high as $118 billion. But since the start of the year, the crypto market has plunged about 74%.

Mr. McCaleb’s increased sales of XRP could be another factor that drags on the token, which Ripple has used to fund its growth and is intended to help run its payments-protocol software.

[tomahawk9]

Still, the gap in market cap between both is relatively small, a small pump in ETH and it will takeover the #2 spot again.

XRP is getting pumped like crazy, so I would be cautious around this coin, every pump it gets incentives the early adopters to trigger a massive dump wave leaving enwcomers holding worthless bags. I would stay away from this coin for the time being, it wouldn't be the smartest move to go and buy right now during the uptrend. Don't give in to FOMO, folks.

[reactorjuno]

Well hardly a surprise, however XRP is more likely to crash for good (in my opinion) as the project is much younger than Ethereum. I am pessimistic for Ethereum but does not mean XRP will survive in the middle term, it is too much gambling at this stage.
My 2 cents.

I agree with you, ripple might be one of the most profitable coins for those who know when to sell or buy it. apart from most of the XRB's founders, I can still make a profit. the important thing is don't be too greedy to seek profit if you know the price will fall, you can sell it right away.

and I don't care who is in second place either ETH or XRB. as long as I can make a profit from it, I have no problem with that.

[alex_kir]

This is very strange, but all the same the capitalization of the project Ripple has become more than the project ETH, this is on the one hand is happy, because I have a little Ripple, but also very terrible as ETH became a line below.

[Parodium]

This isn't the first time that XRP has overtaken ETH, it also happened a few days ago just before the price dropped 5%, however the move is only going to be temporary as ETH always ends up retaking its number 2 position after several days. Personally, I find XRP to be overhyped, and ETH to be under appreciated, in time we will see the true pecking order.

[Iykecollins]

It will be difficult for Ripple to maintain that for a long time, Etherium has already maintained that for a long time and whatever makes XRP to get above eth will cause a pump effect on eth to eventually take the number 2,that is what happened in the last time

Didn't we already address this like 3days ago?   XRP took over momentarily and then Eth regained position.

It seems the bankers move into Ripple first - then the rest follows. Which means, if your a good trader, you would probably be gathering some ETH right now for a quick trade by the end of the day 

[Victorrrrrrr]

XRP surpassed ETH some days ago. The market cap of XRP is now 22.6, as coin360 says. Not sure if it lasts for a long time. Such a rally

[NavI_027]

Oh my god! This is my first time to witnessed a differrent market situation. I'm shocked that XRP outranked ETH (your thread makes me suddenly look to CMC ). Well, this is only in terms of market cap not in terms of price so I think it would be still a long run for Xrp to totally beat Eth. Nonetheless, what an impressive performance done by it.

Since I missed the opportunity made by Xrp, I guess I should make an upturn by hoarding more Eth and dump it once it recovers .

[widowsoon]

this is an unexpected news

[nurularesyi1995]

Yes Altcoin Ripple (XRP), which has seen an explosive growth over the past week, has surpassed Ethereum (ETH) ranking number two with total market capitalization at CoinMarketCap. Ripple has seen unprecedented growth of 140 percent this week, up nearly 80 percent on the day alone, to trade around $ 0.65 at press time.

[louie69]

Yes, XRP is now the 2nd rank at coinmarketcap site where in the marketcap of XRP had surpassed eth just recently. XRP has been doing great this time and I believe this is the right time for everybody to consider buying as this is now gaining momentum for a great bullish market that could possibly rally within the coming month.

[tsaroz]

This is a typical XRP pump. Just happened that a week ago.  When they'll come back to their normal trend, ETH would get back it's position.
It's not that XRP has a dark future, ETH has a brighter one.
For the long term, ETH is in it's most undervalued price and when the price and transactions of alts increase, ETH would strongly hold ahead of XRP and go nearer to BTC.

Beat eth is not easy and even passed it will not for long. Eth have basic power to keep become the main follower of bitcoin, this day is only temporary maybe some whales take speculation part. But we can see this moment ( XRP ) as opportunity to invest/ trade using eth as the product, do that before XRP goes down again.

[BogdanGFTP]

I think Ethereum could make a leap only when Buterin will present the solution for scaling problem. Before that will happen the growth of price of Ethereum will lag behind the growth of other cryptocurrencies like EOS or Stellar, for example.

[Dart18]

Okay that was a breaking news.
Cause it really broke my heart literally.

I could not say it is normal or not. Ethereum took a very deep fall and it is like going thru hard times to rise again.
But I always keep this in my mind.
ICO's mostly accept ETH as payment fod their token sale and that could be the key for ETH to wake up again.
