Ripple appears to be stable in relation to the BTC price change.

Hi all
I am new to cryptocoins. I dont own any, and thinking about investing.
Bitcoin is too expensive and the only interesting coin I found was ripple. Reason for that is that I like they are doing something "real" - meaning helping banks to save money.
Few days ago I saw the article about Ripple making dead with Santander bank. I am watching the price of XRP for some time, but I dont see any big movement. I was expecting it will raise after this deal going public, but nothing happened..
Can somebody please explain why? And what needs to happen for this coin to raise value?
thank you

buy the hype, sell the news. This was already priced in by insider probably. |

I have to admit after being involved in the cryptocurrency economy since 2013, Ripple has never caught my eye.
I think it was the pre-mine/centralized image portrayed by ripple.
I don't know of one person that is into ripple. And ripple is in the top tier of cryptos.
This could be an opportunity for ripple.
I recently tried using ripples gatehub and it sucks. Left me with a taste in my month never to bother with ripple again.
Just my 2 satoshis.

I think Waves may stand a fair chance at replacing ripple, not an endorsement just my opinion.

XRP coin has some potential. It's worth holding, the mere fact that it's price has not fallen all this time shows that it will one day spike.

That literally means nothing when you are talking about a centralized system as old and well know as ripple... Did you ever think some things aren't mean to be volatile? There are no large gains to be had in ripple. |

I think the fact that Ripple continues for form real partnerships with actual financial institutions is the best evidence in support of future appreciation for XRP.
I agree, the current distribution of XRP is a big problem, but it also means that Ripple itself has a greater incentive than anyone to engage in activities to increase the price. As FIs come into the Ripple.network they'll also have an interest in perpetuating the Ripple network.

If WAVES can deliver, they will provide a good competition to XRP.

I can assure you that I am, in no way associated with anyone on this thread. I just resurrected my Ripples in Gatehub - approx 5000 woot, woop! Not much of a bagholder! However I have been stashing RBRs (Loyyal) - a few BTC worth and it is that what got me thinking about Ripple again - even though they are in two completely separate spaces - their structures and methods remind me of each other. As does their absence of any interaction on BCT. I have more in Waves than Ripple and, as they are direct competitors of sorts, makes me more inclined to root for Waves over Ripples. Of course, this is BCT ALTS so you are right to have a healthy scepticism about any goings on, here! |

XRP is a real sleeping giant.
Once they secure the backing of some FIs, its only a matter of time before XRP flies high.

Nah XRP is done and dusted. Their distribution model was so centralised that its against the crypto spirit. |
