I am one of ripple haters, The reason I hate ripple because cryptocurrensy should be decentralized because with decentralized system crypto can defeat banke. But we knew so many romus that ripple help bank, with centralized system. Im not trust ripple and i stop invest in this coin. I think i agree with that article

The answer is in the first 3 letters of its name.

What do you call something that rips people off ?

The transactions are fast and cheap, that's good, but Stellar, the original XRP, is a nice foundation doing good in the world.

And XLM is 4 times cheaper than overpriced XRP.

Hence : RIPple

I don't think Ripple is a scam. As a result, Ripple is now the third coin with the most market cap. The fact that Ripple is a centralized platform makes me a little confused. But that doesn't give me the idea that Ripple is a scam.

As totally centralized token it is not a cryptocurency.  It is as much a cryptocurency as a secondlife lindens or World of Warcraft gold.

I always thought that xrp is too overvalued and manipulated coin that has no future. We should not expect anything other than promises and manipulations from them, and I would say that this asset is well suited for traders who understand how the market works, but this project is too risky for ordinary investors

I don't always  believe everything I read In the news and so should you. It could all be an information passed around the media, created by the whales to shill Xrp. Do your own research and don't turn to a weak hands out of ignorance

I can't remember the last time I bought a ripple. the thing I remember is XRP made my money burn. too much manipulation for the XRP market, so I think this is a high-volume shitcoin. a lot of people lost because they held the ripple last year, you know when their prices rose slowly only in a sudden time the market was dumped

When some read the article and ask the question,and who benefits from it in the first place??? because unfortunately we live in a time when all news are under control,and are only paid,it is recommended to publish,then publish on the public,really really important news is likely not where you do not see!So I'm sure the article about Ripple is not the fact that there is the truth, and in General the project RIPL is very cool and promising,and he has a lot of just partnerships

ripple isn't scam, but too much manipulation is done by dev. dev ripple just wants to take advantage of the volatile crypto market. when viewed from the development of the ripple project far behind.

HODLing is an art, not just a word...
XRP being a shitcoin is an undeniable fact so there is no surprise there and whenever someone talks about it being scam they do have a point specially when you see them point out the premine, the way they own all the coins and the way they have been pump and dumping it. not to mention that they control the whole network tightly while advertising it as a decentralized coin where it clearly is not! that last one is the biggest scam of all.

Its a clear scam and yet people still continue to buy it.  The thing is ripple is not even a cryptocurrency.  It shouldn't  even be listed on coinmarketcap.  It is just a centralized excel spreadsheet with a huge amount given to the founders.  I don't think it will ever reach $1 again and it will descend out of the top10.

Yes, Ripple is not a cryptocurrency but a company, so it is not listed in coinmarketcap.com. What was listed there is XRP, a token and/or cryptocurrency. Ripple and XRP are related but different and one can google the difference between the two.

First 100% Liquid Stablecoin Backed by Gold
There is much more to it, otherwise this alleged scam would not have been successful whatsover.

Then tell me what is it? From where you take these informations?

Like I told I was trying to find any detailed information about their product or even tried to test if possible and only thing I found was more questions and doubts.

I wonder by myself how is it possible that 3rd biggest crypto is called a scam by major news magazines?

The author thoroughly analyzed Rippel's business model and came to the shocking conclusion that it is simply a typical "scam" and "pump and dump".

Many people and myself feel that Ripple should not be considered as a crypto currency since it is centralised. Whether it is a scam or not, I can’t tell for sure. But I did see the pump and dump took place a few times during the past years.

XRP is centralised, so looking for additional features like in decentralized blockchains in ripple blockchain is not understandable by my side.

I'm not a fan of ripple but what is your basis on this? I knew there is a rumor about them being centralized but they are still claiming to be decentralized, I don't know if this is fud or real. Ripple is not just an excel spreadsheet they have their own blockchain with 1500+ TPS this quiet fast compared to others but the use cases is the most important. They have big names partners I don't know if those company didn't do an investigation on ripple.

A single article is not enough to call top coin as a scam project. XRP is used widely but the mentioned arguments have sense. Let's wait for settled dust and everyone will get the point about this centralized coin.
I am wondering if this is a FUD or something that like them say like that and anyway, is that right he wrote Rippel instead of Ripple? But I think it is since they use the abbreviation of XRP for Ripple then I guess it's a typo. Anyway, the post of OP does make some sense but I still doubt it since we did not hear anything yet from the Ripple team.
