The problem with Ripple is that even if the Ripple bull case
would occur that it wouldn´t really translate to an increased value of the
cryptocurrency XRP.
Ripple´s long term plan is to convince banks to replace the current
SWIFT system with Ripple´s system. However, XRP aren´t really included
in this scenario and are merely a separate product of Ripple.
Therefore I´d be cautious with investing in Ripple.
Do your research before buying XRP.

Okay, guys, could anyone explain to me in simple terms what's the difference between Ripple and Tether apart from the fact that Ripple doesn't claim their coins are backed up by real dollars? As far as I can see, they are essentially the same thing doing the same stuff, which can be loosely called private money. What am I missing in this picture if anything?

It was absolutely going to blow up because they announced a lot of partnerships that are going to continue a lot more in 2018 while Ethereum which only have their successful CryptoKitties which is a big joke.

Ripple is on the talk all this year and it has made a break finely. I think it will repeat the YOTA"s jump few days ago, till 5$ and then stabilize around 3$.
Oh, same thought with you. Based on the current movement trend, it's very likely for Ripple to reach $5 during the first quarter of 2018. After that, it's going to stabilize around $2.5-$3, depending on the market demand. In the meantime, I will keep hodling my Ripple. Let's take the moon ride together
