Was Ripple the cause of this bullish trend? What do you think?

[Horionion]

With my little experience, ripple of all coin cannot be the reason for a bull that will affect the price of coins like btc and ETH. It is far from it.

[puertorikosena]

I do not think that Ripple will be able to influence the entire market. Rather, the opposite. Although it is worth considering the company's strengths - marketing. When they need to, they know how to arrange a grandiose pump. This may be indicated by currency charts.

If ripple is responsible for this present bullish thread why haven't ripple skyrocket yet?

Taking a practical look at ripple move, you will observe that, ripple have moved far from what we used to know about it move before. If ripple is dangling with with just 40% and on of a sudden it plot into 105%, what will be your conclusion? That its hasn't seen a bull?

why still around 0.23$? it should be the one taking the lead right now, where other altcoins like BitcoinCash and ETH are making XRP looks stupid, I think bitcoin halving is responsible not ripple

Take a closer look at the current price of ripple and others you have just made mentioned to see their percentage of increase, then you will know who us taking the leading!!!!.

I think not, although some experts expects that XRP will be having good fluctuation, but it is not the cause of this bullish trend. I think it's the bitcoin who trends to increase showing positivity.

All of us here expecting that market will recover from the previous downfall that we expeperienced for the past two years. Others thinking what is the reason that's why OP ask this and some give their opinion. I wanted to impart some too. XRP has too many traders and we all know amongst the top coins even compared with BCH this coin has the lowest fee and I admit Im using this instead of eth and btc. I'm just practical to use it even though we hate how much this coin is being manipulated so much. Admit that all of you uses this too so dont tell so much negativity in fact you are using this too.

I think Ripple or (XRP) has nothing to do with this bullish trend that we currently experiencing now. But it may also influence on current XRP price, Usually the market reacts if there is an upcoming big event specially in the dominant cryptocurrency in the market Like "bitcoin halving" forks, etc the market is showing positive movements from time to time that's why I think it was connected to the upcoming event.

Ripple had been on the news before this bullish threads started coming into the crypto market, this make me Wonder, if Ripple is the sole cause of this bullish threads we have seen form January to February, 2020. Also, recently Ripple had announced their partner; "Intermex, which will leverage RippleNet – a network of institutional payment providers using Ripple's several payments solutions – to develop "faster, transparent cross-border remittance services" between the U.S. and Mexico."

That's great news and RippleNet has not only become Intermex's partner, they are Visa's main partner. This shows that the cross-border trading system is very needed and the future of Ripple will bring a big thing to the market.
But the downside is that the team currently holds 60 billion XRP and this is not safe for investors. In addition, coins are becoming more and more unlocked and they are bringing up exchanges to sell more. This has caused the price of XRP to rise quite low compared to the top alts, I doubt about the growth of XRP in the future.

[Becky666]

Ripple has potential and it can surely grow higher in few months time but presently I refuse to accept that Ripple is behind this present bullrun, Ripple hasn't grown profit like BCH and ETH did, its growth since few days ago is very low compare to other coins

What? That ripple growths few say days ago is low? Well, I don't know where you take your opinion from. The beginning of this month was as good in ripple, I did many trades from my side and, i was able to grab my fortune form using ripple to trade. Ripple has invited many companies and try to bring them into the cryptocurrency sphere to boost global adoption.

[Crypto5060]

I doubt ripple is the cause otherwise it would have seen more gain than it had. Other top coins have inarguably done better than ripple within this period.

[Rengga Jati]

...this make me Wonder, if Ripple is the sole cause of this bullish threads we have seen form January to February, 2020.... snip

I don't think so. It needs bigger issues than it to make the bullish time starting or growing.
The increase in the market price currently is so significant. But, we still cannot determine which issues influence the market whether it is because of heading to the BTC halving or other issues. However, whatever the reason, we should be relieved with the recent market condition. But, we are probably wondering, is this only a short bullish or is this the starting to reach higher one?

[Goodvalony]

The rumor heard it that ripple are about to conduct an IPO so this could trigger the crypto market but i don't think it is the reason for the bull run. Another amazing News is the bitcoin halving which i think is the reason behind the bull run. i hope bitcoin cross and never go below the 10,000 price mark. it will be good to see bitcoin make such move.

bitcoin prices will be very easy to rise beyond the price of $10k and I think when bitcoin prices start to show an increase in price it will have a good effect on many altcoins like XRP will usually go up because it is used for transactions between exchanges that are being arbitrated by utilizing the price difference from other exchange place.

Only bitcoin can but its good to hear a news like this from XRP, the up trend already started right before the announcement of XRP so I also think XRP is a not a sole cause of this pump. The market is getting better, we have to consider so many indicators for this one and right now, we can’t tell the real reason for the pump.

You must be joking? This couldn't be further from the truth. This altcoin season and bitcoin bullrun has been predicted for a long time and it has nothing to do with this crappy centralized coin or their shill army. If you haven't noticed, XRP is not a part of this bull run.

XRP bull run might come later because there's no shortage in a supply of idiots that don't know what they are doing, and they will be flowing back into markets. But XRP doesn't lead anything.

[letyouearn]

The only reason of any bull trend is some big whale's decision to make it happen.Whether it is Ripple who strarts growing first or Dash or Ethereum or some other coins - this is a consequence, not a cause.

[kaneki007]

Good news for XRP holders. But I don't think the ripple experienced a bullrun because of the news, but indeed because almost all altcoins have increased prices since 2 days ago, a good start for all Altcoin holders hopes that bullrun continues to occur this year.

[Spaffin]

Of course, in the beginning of 2020, the entire cryptocurrency market increased its capitalization by 27%, which amounts to almost 244 billion dollars, and first of all, the cryptocurrency market achieved such indicators by increasing the price of bitcoin, which makes up almost 67% of the total cryptocurrency trading volume.  Undoubtedly, altcoin showed a great impetus to price increases, but nevertheless I very much doubt that it is the Ripple that is responsible for such a triumph.
In addition, you still need to take into account information about the lawsuit of Craig with the heirs of the Kleiman, which in any case affected the growth of Bitcoin SV and clearly displayed on the entire cryptocurrency market.

[ballerin and giroud]

The ripple transaction is more than fast rather other cryptocurrencies as long as I know. And I have done it for several times and it has low fee if we compare with bitcoin. Therefore, ripple is the coin which deserve to be use as payment system or sending money (which I think can be aligned with bank transaction. But I dissagree if you say that ripple was causing the cryptocurrency have increased which considered this situation is bull run. There are many things that more deserve to call as an affect for cryptocurrencies price goes up, such as samsung who decide to invest their money to invest on smart contract.

[Spider A4]

Yes, xrp is most potential coin but how many adoption is happen by useful it, Ripple stabilization is going from long term. So short term investors never expect profit. BCH investment is different with any crypto investment, risk is high and outcome is also like that. I would never gonna to compare in bch with other altcoins investment.

[Cnut237]

No, XRP is not the cause of the bullish movement we've seen over the last couple of months. If it were, then we'd have seen XRP rising a) sooner than other coins, and b) more than other coins. Neither of these is the case.

The mostly likely cause I would say is the expectation of bitcoin halving, which as we all know is coming soon. Coupled to this the high bitcoin dominance at the moment, which has maybe reached the point where alts are looking like a bargain.

If any alt is helping to drive us upwards at the moment, it is ETH.

Ripple did not even make a Good Pump so how come that this top 3 ranking currency will be the reason of this Pump?i cannot see any connection about such.

actually what i was thinking is either this is a manipulation or there is a huge dump coming to follow this trend.
