I guess that the question should be what is a cryptocurrency, so here we go, what makes something a crypto or not a crypto?
Cryptocurrency consists of Crypto and Currency, so when viewed in terms of language then it means "Secret Currency", because Crypto means Secrets and Currency is Currency. This meaning is somewhat similar to the sense in terms of the term, namely "Currency of a digital and secret"..The first cryptocurrency made is Bitcoin, so Bitcoin is most famous everywhere. Bitcoin is made by an "Anonymous" named Satoshi Nakamoto. Wink

Is ripple a cryptocurrency? Yes atleast by logic it's completely on Internet and Crypto graphy but it is not comparable to Bitcoin or litecoin because both of these are decentralised. XRP is a currency controlled by a company called ripple, Ripple has every rights to close down their currency but it is not possible in Bitcoin. XRP is useful for banks not for people.

I do not remember I've already said something in this thread about my negative attitude to the Ripple project or not. But in any case, for today I'm rather negative about the Ripple project, because I do not consider Ripple for crypto currency, for many reasons

XRP is not true crypto curency holding by Centralized Database and already 80% coins are premined owned there is no way to control this coins by community . Its not a true crypto currency supporting this coin would be dumb decision

On a technical level it's a cryptocurrency indeed, but a centralized corporate one. I guess we'll see more of this kind in the future.

Indeed. It is just a closed payment mechanism, like Paypal, Visa or Mastercard but with a blockchain ledger.

crypto space completely agains banks and their fuckin financial systems, but xrp working with them and this is completely different than crypto theory, so, xrp is not a true cryptocurrency.

Cryptocurrencies are meant to be decentralized which XRP doesnt qualify,xrp is centralized coin by these bankers so if i were you i wont invest in XRP to protect our community and to be safe from a manipulated coin.

I don't think cryptocurrencies are always need to be decentralized but we know that ripple is centralized, it is not like bitcoin, doge or digibyte so better to invest knowing it is centralized.

This is true,if XRP will dominate our community the bankers will win again,we are using cryptocurrencies because we dont want the banking system and the fiat.

I think ripple is just a pump-dump coin. It is not a promising coin for me and there are many bad comments about it.
