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.

Seems you are trying to shill one of your favorite coins. I have seen quite a number of people  shilling this and some other coins few days ago. Well, I guess all that should matter most to people is their usability and how decentralized they are and not to climb to the number two spot on coinmarketcap

Possibly if eth 2.0 gives nothing but bad results, i am less worried about xrp because its centralized, manipulation benefits will always be present, i am not a xrp fan and i hope that ETH 2.0 will prove to be a better version of its old self, to me ETH is better than ripple

Ripple will definitely claim the second position - it's just a matter of time. XRP is being periodically pumped by the whales to very high positions, I bet we will see something like that quite soon.

It's also a Big Achievement for Ripple Bull Run!!!!


Ripple has invested in Mexican Exchange Bitso

Ripple will soon occupy the 2nd position of ETH. ETH price is not stable and in the future it will collapse.

According to us, we see from the development of XRP that is currently in a very good trend, and I am sure that if etherium does not go up then the second position will definitely be replaced by XRP, but we are just waiting for the time and we can see that the market capitalization of XRP is already quite high then competition the market will be tighter.

Would be still really hard to determine at the situation we are currently experiencing. There are many promising coins to invest at this moment that the prices are still low but what scares the investors is the risk of losing profit since there's no assurance on when will the market recover and what coin will experience the recovery. No matter how huge the expectations are, the reality would still matter the most. So just wait for now.

Hopefully not, ripple is not even a crypto currency, it is a company that helps other companies transact money for cheaper than the systems they have right now and nothing else. It means there is really no point for it to be a second ranked coin, there is no need for it to be a third ranked coin neither, it should be around 30th spot with the tech and the system they have. It is a premined all controlled by a central organization currency that is basically worst than fiat. I would rather use dollars then use ripple to be perfectly honest and I am a full on all-in crypto guy.

However, as long as people see it as a successful third spot coin it will not be seen for what it really is, and they will continue to do their advertisements and publicity stunts which will make it even bigger.

Usage and cheap price for every transaction.
That is one of the key for XRP's success. Yes, it might go to number 2.
Other reason is because of its cheap price.
Most investors by now area choosing a cheap one to gain more numbers and maybe hold it for a year and expect it to have a bitcoin-like success.

By seeing the XRP's recent huge growth, I think this just a matter of time to overplaced Ethereum by Ripple. Last year Ripple replaced the second place several times. If XRP does it this year, then Ethereum will get back again and again. Ripple will not hold the second place, only Ethereum will. Even I think after Ethereum 2.0 upgrade, ETH will go too forward than Ripple.

[Genemind]

It's possible since XRP has a really big potential and has proven us a lot. It remained on its spot and it could go more in the future only if it will rise and grow continually. We all know that Btc and Eth are unbeatable but if there will be a massive ripple adoption and if the price would go higher while Eth is staying stable, it could really reach the 2nd spot.

Very big chance that for XRP could be in position 2. It is possible that this will happen later, but this is still in the process. Sooner or later, surely, if XRP continues to push, then it will be what we expect.

XRP is already an inflated coin and there are no any good news to make it rise more. The Ripple team have failed to integrate the token the way they promised to make a worldwide money transfer. They even claimed to be alternative to swift. But it seems like banks would rather make their own coin than integrating XRP. With the increase in competition in crypto world, I highly doubt, XRP would claim the second spot for any significant time.

I completely agree with your opinion, and I also believe that the whole situation that happened with Ripples, when this coin took second place in the cryptocurrency market, was the result of a marketing move by the developers.  But we really must evaluate the importance of ethereum and ripples separately, after which ethereum clearly seems to be the most important asset for many investors, which will make it impossible to take second place for the ripples.

The Ripple XRP was on the number spot on the coin market cap before the Etherum ETH took over the number two spot a few months ago. I don't think moving back to number two is going to be hard for Ripple since there is only a $6 billion interval with Ethereum in the market capitalization.

But, I think there are lots of Uncertainity in Cryto market because the Tether replace BCH ON TOP 4 position. So, I think it is possible to replace.

XRP should not reach the 2nd place. We should not allow such centralised projects to make the high mark in the cryptocurrency marketplace. Always we need to have ethereum at the second place.

Most of the banks adopting this coin but why not there are giving hands for Bitcoin which is useful for everyone. Such kind of projects must not allow to come top. Decentralized market should live long.

[Upgate]

We have all seen before when ripple claimed the number two spot at the expense of ethereum the position was not held by ripple for to long as we saw ethereum get back the spot how ever there are possibilities that ripple can still over take ethereum for the number two position

Based on the data of your screenshot on the CMC website, XRP's market capitalization is in 3rd place just below ethereum. But if you look at how big the trading volume has been in the last 24 hours, then XRP really can't match Ethereum. Usually if Bitcoin goes up, XRP goes up, then Ethereum also goes up. That is why I am not sure that the market capitalization of XRP is able to defeat Ethereum.
In comparison, when Ethereum and XRP prices reached the highest price in trading history, the market stamp was also unmatched. I multiply the highest price in history by total supply.
[1] Market Cap (Jan 13, 2018) ETH $15,499,902,137,720
[2] Market Cap (Jan 04, 2018) XRP $383,966,708,670.72

I do not remember or never happened that XRP is in the 2nd position with a market stamp above Ethereum.

Where are you seeing this information? Coinmarketcap does not show this information. Atleast today it's not the case.
