Will XRP Claim the #2 Position?

[Harrydose]

To the ongoing Bull trend of Ripple (XRP), It is likely to gain 90% more to the current price of $0.2897 USD, with 0.00003475 BTC in terms of Bitcoins. XRP is more likely to push upwards and predicted to beat Ethereum to take its place and be ranked #2 in the cryptocurrency market.

XRP has a market cap of $12,517,129,114 USD with total supply of 99,991,330,383 XRP. The return on investment (ROI) for Ripple has stood at a whopping 4,836.66%. XRP has gained a total of 28% since the end of September and is residing in its trade beneath Ethereum.

There is a high chance for XRP to do it, it happened before and there is no reason for XRP to not doing it especially XRP is good at making a move when the market is unpredictable.
if ETH remains the same and nothing major happen with our crypto sphere, It is very likely for XRP to take ETH place before ETH makes an update.
there is a time before ETH making the major update on their system and will likely push the price up. before this happens, XRP has a huge chance to replace it for a moment.

This has already happened quite recently when the price of Ethereum fell to ottetok below $ 120, for several days Ripple took second place, but not for long.
I think all this you yourself can see from the graph. I think only if the price of Ethereum drops more than Ripple, the project will have a chance to take second place again.
But these are just numbers, I believe that among the altcoins Ethereum is the undisputed leader.

I agree that there seems to be that big potential of XRP eventually overtaking Eth as the number two in the line and who knows maybe even taking over the whole world of cryptocurrency. I mean we just don't know what will really happen here and predictions can be proven right, wrong and sometimes beyond our expectations.

Although predictions can’t be made entirely on assumptions and observation on charts, it can be considered as a reference. As per the charts, major resistances are seen at $0.39 to $0.50 which can be quite a hurdle. If XRP continues to fly at the same pace it will break the above resistances without any least effort and hit the possible targets at $0.33 to $0.50, $0.68, $1.21, $3.9 to $4. 

However, it can take still some months of continuous growth before I would say that definitely XRP is taking over the 2nd spot. We don't know yet what will be the market reaction to the scheduled Ethereum 2.0 promised by Vitalik Buterin and if things will go with that then there is a lesser chance for XRP to eventually kick Eth from its current position. Again, things can be full of surprises in cryptocurrency that is sometimes I usually do not listen too much on predictions/projections because most them are just that...predictions.

Still, good luck to XRP and may this always energized people of XRP to work hard double time.

Ripple already claimed being top 2 last 2018, transaction volume of xrp rise with extreme amount. Xrp might repeat history and claim top 2 again, we can still see an improvement for xrp even after the incident that it faced before. Xrp is indeed a good crypto and it is still one of the most popular crypto and a must invested crypto these days.

This increase in the price of XRP is caused by a large burning of coins but not bullrun. Ripple is characterized by such short-term price increases. I think that most likely these changes are closely related to the regulatory authorities, as they constantly pay attention to this project. Do not hope for a further increase in the price. XRP is a very unstable cryptocurrency.

[Vispilio]

Highly unlikely, if XRP claims number 2 spot again, expect great manipulative short term activity as the driving cause for it.

Functionally, philosophically and in terms of blockchain technology, there are at least 10 other top tier altcoins that comfortably outshine XRP now...

[qiwoman2]

It all depends on how much more progress XRP can make in the next five years or more. We might be surprised and see a totally new blockchain project take over where Ethereum and XRP are right now, no one knows. This market now is so full of twists and turns, no one knows where things might end up in five years from now. RIPPLE is now a big name in the industry and can easily take back the second place, after Bitcoin if it makes one good piece of news or innovation to foster more adoption of the XRP coin.

[casperBGD]

i do not believe in this scenario, since the difference between these two is very high and ETH is going well as well in the last period

XRP is backed up with news regarding 27 independent validator from total number of 34, but this will no last for a long time

[Shasha80]

Ripple (XRP) has good potential, including stable coins because many bank are supported . To win second place in the cryptocurrency world must defeat ETH first, possibly to defeat ETH could have happened, because as we know XRP made the highest price in the market around early 2018. Which time the price of XRP surged up. XRP has a lot of volume so it is likely to pump in the near future occur. So don't hesitate to invest long term in XRP. With a large total supply, XRP is very fast transactions and transaction fees are also cheap. What are you waiting for immediately invest XRP coins before the price goes up.

100%

All the progress it made the last two years - HUGE

[Mammothcoin]

Even if XRP becomes the second biggest cryptocurrency by market capitalization,  it wouldn't be the first time. However,  even if it does I am certain it will be short-lived as has been its previous rises to that position. XRP has given early buyers impressive ROI but in the long run it cannot outperform real cryptocurrency like BTC and Ether.

[ecnalubma]

It is quiet possible, it has good potential and the demand is quiet impressive in terms of cashing out on exchanges 😂. Even its the most decentralised coin, their holders are very optimistic about the growth and development of the company.

[Lizzylove1]

Ripple has been in the 2nd spot before, with the many HYPE around it, it may displace ETH from the 2nd position again. ETH network has always been a major issue and continue to be slow. I can't tell how long XRP may be able to hold the second spot if ever makes it there again. Fingers crossed.

[Nobita7999]

I believe this will come true. XRP CEO has a great position and potential in financial market. And it works with a lot of banks and big companies, this is what I think is the most realistic application in this market.

[pidie]

In my opinion, it is difficult if XRP will rise to position 2. because at this time position 2 which is occupied by ETH is difficult to be shifted by other altcoins including XRP. but it also does not rule out the possibility that later XRP will occupy the top 2 positions. it depends on the level of interest and natural progress made by XRP.

I haven't heard any news that says XRP burned coins. But if they did, I guess the price of the coin will go up.

Is XRP became the number 2 coin in cryptocurrency for at least once? I'm not actually a fan of this coin nor a hater. But, I don't think many people will trust a coin that is being ran by the bank.

[o48o]

CZ is planning to peg xrp it as a token and use it as a pair on binance dex, they haven't done that with eth (only bnb, btc and fiat) so i am assuming that at least they have bigger plans for it then to eth. Or they see eth pairs as a direct competition so they will not add it for that reason.
But i see this as a possible indicator for xrp bulls.

edit: typos

[Dpat]

This the matter of time and you already seen that how long and the volume of the trading value for the Ripple. Definitely Ripple will hold the 2nd position after a few years. As, you know XRP is the only digital currency is accepted world-wide legally not even the Bitcoin. So, the demand is very high for this coin.

[shaheer001]

Altcoin market remains always unpredictable, XRP remained in 2nd position for some time but again go to its No03 position But XRP is now in very strong position and again it is possible that it gets its 2nd position.
