WOOOOW Ripple working together with mastercard, this is huge news!

[H.W.P]

Ripple again shows us a small increase. I think he is capable of much more, the main thing is to give him time and not touch him, then we will be able to see new heights. I hope that it will ever cost more than $10.

We are about to surpass ETH again in the coinmarketcap and get to the second spot. We belong there, hell yeah!
Working together with Mastercard will give XRP such a boost. Prepare to moon !

Wait, what?! Like... THE Mastercard will be using XRP on the background? And we only get a hefty 10%-15% price hike?

You're talking about this, I guess? https://dailyhodl.com/2018/11/04/ripple-expands-xrp-powered-xrapid-boosts-payment-platform-backed-by-mit-and-mastercard/
I hadn't heard about it, I just googled it after reading the comments of this thread.

Ripple and MaterCard cooperation looks good, but I dont understand why MasterCard need Ripple? Credit card transactions are almost instant right? While international bank transfers (SEPA, SWIFT) are so slow. So?

This may be just for the news, when it actually start to happen for real there could be some more serious spike happening, just matter of time

price is too much wavy. and is constantly priced with speculation. This is a situation I don't like. but he still gave the investor a chance to win too much.

When you make a payment from US to Germany using Mastercard, I don't think you're paying any fees. However Mastercard will have to send the money from the US headquarters to Germany at some point.
In some cases there'll be a balance, for example the users who buy US products from Germany might be about as many as the US citizens who buy products from Germany, so Mastercard won't have to transfer money often.

However I'm sure they have to do money transfer very often and XRP will help them. Imagine how much of the fees they'd save if they transact transfers between their own branches using XRP!

I hope that by the end of this year XRP can increase to 10 $
Currently, XP has begun to show signs of taking off, hopefully our hopes will all be achieved

Why is ripple promoting it's decentralisation if it isn't?

Centralisation is not all bad. To some extent it makes sense, and in the ripple case it's not a bad thing. I know it breaks one of the Satoshi's assumption (or result, however you put it) - the decentralisation. But so what. If it makes sense to use just some blockchain features and not 100% all of them... why not?

Because after the SJW (Social Justice Warriors), we now have uneducated DJW (Decentralisation Justice Warriors)!

I believe they're predicting based on technical factors, therefore their predictions are "lagging". The trend of the market is pointing down at the moment, so they "predict" a continuation of the downtrend, ignoring the fundamental factors.

If XRP goes to 3$, corrects with a fall to 2$, then goes to 5$ and corrects with a fall to 4$, they'll accept XRP is in an uptrend and they'll change their "predictions" to reflect that... when the price will have already gone 10 times up!

Yesterday ripple is up, i been closely monitoring this project, and i think it is now the time to invest in this project, it sounds good to enter this time. But i hope it would go for 3 usd in the next coming year, so that it would be the best time for me to sell .

Yesterday I heard XRP was accepted as a payment method in advacash. It is breakthrough!
ripple should show positive dynamics after this news.

Yes, I agree, now is a good opportunity for us to invest in them, if we can accurately predict that we should buy them last month, it's great, because the price was only $ 0.2 and now Now they have raised $ 0.5

A frenzy of activity is happening in crypto despite appearances.

Ripple News:  Sagar Sarbhai writes a comparison of two different countries' approaches to crypto regulation; Marjan Delatinne plans on attending
the Blockchain Startups Summit in Frankfurt, Germany; Cory Johnson will be presenting at Techonomy in California; and SendFriend announces that they are
implemeting xRapid. 

Coil:  Kava Labs announces new ILP APIs for other crypto networks. 

XRP News:  An XRP fan teaches Alexa how to tip in XRP; Ellipal announces XRP support for its mobile hardware wallet; Coinfield, a Canadian exchange, adds XRP as a
base currency; a Mongolian exchange adds XRP support against the Mongolian Tughrik (MNT); and a new fan website debuts with some very original graphics. 

I hope you delve further than the TL:DR version above, and please enjoy the read! 

Thanks & Sincerely,
