It's too early to start thinking that ripple can steal the second position from Ethereuem when Ethereum prove of staking is almost here, i know ripple is a very good coin but with future upgrade of ETH Xrp won't have a chance

in my opinion ETH will remain in position 2 no matter how bad the market conditions are at that time, ETH is the first smart contract and many ICOs use their coins while XRP centralized coins which I myself am not sure about their future functions, use only for making payments maybe in some countries it has received the rest ETH is far superior, so that is impossible in my opinion.

I think they [eth team] have a good plan for this year and they are well prepared if xrp investors try to pump up their coins. I'm an eth supporters and seeing a lot of improvements since then is totally a great achievement as a holder of this coin. Also recently ethereum 2.0 gateway is succesfully had been verified. Check out this source for the recent update. https://bitcoinist.com/?p=125847.

Xrp has also did have a lot of partnership and collaboration especially some central banks but I am wondering how this platform can overstep eth suddenly with a almost half difference in market cap.

You are right, if XRP rises to $0.34 it can be safely assumed ETH will rise too but let us see which way this plays out. I think both have a long way to go before reaching their full potential.


i am not sure that will happen anymore,since ETH have a good roadmap on 2020,actually you should have heard about ETH V2 , there a lot people have been waiting for it.That why i really sure,if Ripple performance still like 2019 , ripple have zero chance about it.

I read what you said but what if XRP goes past the woes of 2019 and rises slowly? Right now XRP is around $0.20 each with a market capital of $8.8 billion but if it reaches just $0.34 it will have the same market capital as ETH currently has.

In my opinion if you are writing XRP off I think you are being a little premature here. ETH v2 has notexactly set the crypto world alight yet, we are all waiting to see what happens.

yes, that right , i am a "bit" premature think here,but i guess nothing wrong with it,And let see ,how XRP will rising alone, i mean , if XRP can reaches 0.34 , did u think price of eth will still same like beginning  ?
of course not, even right now, ETH already reaches 165,although ripple has a significant increase too. And about ETH V2 of course that just still speculation. but since a lot of people have a positive think about it, I just concluded with the good things.

I don't see that happening, XRP doesn't have strong community, even there are more critics of it in crypto space than those that believe in it, as long as the team keeps dumping their stash on the market the price is going to pump the more. This project has nothing to offer tokens holder but most people are still blind to this truth

it was dislodged for a short time, but never happed again.. ethereum is a good project, their development is still ongoing. though the price is at 140USD still good to invest and hold

Ethereum is still a good investment at the price you mentioned, at least I hope it will be but do you think XRP will dislodge ETH again for #2 position in market capital or not? Personally I think there is a chance it will change hands many times over the next couple of years.

XRP will beat ETH on #2 on coinmarketcap but not permanently I guess. If to choose between the two, I'll always chose ETH. Good to hodl. Xrp if good for trading for me.

well because its a pump and dump coin, nothing is permanently there
they will do it just to make attraction, then dump on investors just as they are doing every time..

XRP cannot permanently stay at the 2nd spot and outcast ETH. You know why? I think most of you knows the reason, for me, this is only my opinion, since they are connected to a bank of financial institution it will prevent the growth and of course, XRP's interest would be diminish because of them. (again this is just my take on this).

That is my point too, if Ripple make an announcement about XRP being tied in to a new deal with banks or to provide some fintech solution then the price might rocket. If that happens it can make inroads towards the market capital size Ethereum currently has. It is just a possibility, nothing else.

When this post was made, either ETH or XRP had a market cap difference and XRP still lagged 6 billion dollars behind ETH. I think it is difficult for XRP to overtake ETH in rank 2, especially Ethereum 2.0 has just been launched, but it can only happen if ripple partners such as banks or central banks and also other large institutions support whatever things or plans ripple will do.

The crucial word in the thread title is 'permanently'. XRP does have a history of sudden insane price rises, and I have little doubt it will surge again in the future and pass ETH. Obviously it's much harder to retain that position.
I do think XRP is a great coin, and the huge token releases by Ripple have probably suppressed the price considerably. So an increase is overdue, but I can't see it holding position above ETH unless we have some real world adoption by the banks.

Well though I understand why you make the case against it, the fact is XRP has done it before and switched places between #2 and #3 with Ethereum.

As far as the other part of your post is concerned I agree, compared with ETH (tokens, contracts, etc) it seems XRP really has not done a lot but it is still sitting there so just one announcement in the right fintech circles just might give it a boost.



Don't think it's ever going to be possible, really.

Look, for ETH, I think, it's taken a real beating but I feel it's been an unfair ride for it mostly. It's still the best smart contract and dapp platform out there. It's still helping a lot of companies start out with tokens.

Compare that to XRP who's done actually nothing for anyone (Ripple again is different from XRP).

XRP has a history of trying hard to get the price high (to say it nice). There used to be plenty of news on real or imagined partnerships with reputable huge companies or banks, just to drive the price up.
This will probably happen again as soon as some more money goes into altcoin market, but this should not be a real threat to ETH.

The real threat to ETH may be.. itself. Lately the politics/direction and some not-so-well-handled fork/upgrade attempts made ETH look like "just another altcoin", not really a good business platform. But that's my feeling.
Also, in another ETH related speculation thread, somebody wrote it very good:

With crypto who knows, ETH could dump to nothing based on Vitalik sneezing.

So I think that there's bigger chance ETH to fall from #2 than XRP to rise to #2, although the result is the same, I know. Just then I won't really call it "dislodge".


I like the analogy about ETH possibly failing and falling from #2 to #3 rather than XRP rising and dislodging it, thank you.

One of things that has held XRP back has been the number of XRP being released on the open market every so often. Though fintech industry analysts and users appreciated Ripple they seem confused by the number of XRP being released every year. That confused or hesitant point of view is a valid one because it seems any crypto would struggle with price increases if they were in the same situation but long term will XRP price rise to all time high againregardless of what is happening with Ethereum? I am not sure right now.

On previous occasions XRP has dislodged ETH to become the second largest crypto by market capital. Will it do it again soon?

With so many issues facing both XRP and ETH recently and their price tumbling, the next time XRP investors come rushing to buy and it eventually overtakes ETH do you think this will be time for it to cement its position as a permanent number two remaining behind Bitcoin?

Will Ethereum stay relevant in 2020 as it had been especially during the 2017 ICO days and stay behind Bitcoin but ahead of XRP for the whole year?
