Those days ripple is doing really well, it has more than half of bitcoin market cap and has 19% market dominance.

Ripple and Ethereum will be able to compete for second place. Eventually, Bitcoin will fall - and maybe Ripple will overtake Bitcoin at that point, if Ripple is still actively used at that point. But that may be years away, the way things are right now... in any 2018 horizon, Ripple is highly unlikely to overtake Bitcoin's market dominance.

i think ripple is having a big chance to defeat bitcoin in the future. bitcoin is slowing down few months recently, in contrast, ripple is rising rapidly, it is taking away bitcoin's market every day, so if this keep going on, ripple may take bitcoin place in not very far future.

Lol. That isn't enough to even make ripple worthy of being compared to bitcoin. Yes, bitcoin has been going down in price lately. But this certainly doesn't mean that it will continue to crash. Just try to look at the past of bitcoin and you will see that this has happened a lot to bitcoin. So i think things will still be the same bitcoin will rise up again. Breaking record by record. Specially when the lightning network finishes fixing the major problems of bitcoin and implements this fix this year. I guarantee you that when this happens, bitcoin will be unstoppable.

I don't really think so, and especially I hope not. I just think that the recent rise of Ripple is a sheer matter of speculation.

People are looking to get a good return from ripple like bitcoin did. Ripple has a supply of 100 billion vs bitcoins 21million its not going to reach the same as bitcoin has. People see it has increased in value lately and have the fear of missing out

Overtaking Bitcoin in terms of market cap seems to be near impossible but if you are looking for a quick money right now it is a good time to buy ripple instead of Bitcoin. One of the main reason is its good timing as Ripple has a good chart and also Bitcoin is on consolidation stage. So looking at it I don't think that it is necessary for Ripple to overtake something just to show that it is more profitable as .60$ per Coin to 3.00$ is a pretty big leap forward. Their profitability will still increase as the number of traders also increase.

I don't think so, I think ripple is enjoying a pump and will soon again be passed by ethereum. I don't think it can come close to challenging bitcoin, it would require a price of $10 or so which seems absurdly high.

For many, ripple is an opportunity to make money on speculation. I, too, do not like the centralization of a ripple, but the rise in prices for it does not mean that people will use it.

People only buy Ripple because it is cheap...

And I bet, that they think it will rise to "a couple of thousand dollar" just like BTC Wink

Well, they are wrong. And a extreme fall in price will come soon...
BTC is in a Bubble??? Then what is Ripple? Super Mega Extreme Uber Bubble Wink

Actually it is possible. If all new incoming ppl will invest in ripple than for sure it will overtake it. But my opinion is that BTC will start rising again...

It will be very difficult for the XRP to overtake the BTC.
But the real advantage of XRP is its liquidity, BTC needs 4 hours to complete a transaction. XRP needs 3.6 seconds.

It will be a truly sad day if it does happen.
But a quick glance at the history XRP/BTC chart on coinmarketcap gives a pretty big clue as to what is going to happen pretty soon.

That doesnt mean it will already go beyond bitcoin.
This is the total supply of Ripple = 99,993,093,880
Look at those numbers. That is a lot for one to grow in value way above your imagination like bitcoin.
It just cant. It might be in the hype right now and it is great to profit from it but please do not take it to the higher level. Let us all be practical here and go back to reality.

Ripple is quite a good investment as it's current market price is affordable and the interests earned from it will be very profitable. It will take a long time for ripple to overtake BBC as btcs value and popularity is too high

I think that Ripple will not overlap BTC with capitalization. However, it was very large growth of Ripple in last 2 weeks.

Given what has happened in the last couple of months in crypto world I would say anything is possible.
looking at both market caps now i cannot believe ripples of $141 billion +
another question to add into the thread, is the Bitcoin price suffering because Ripple is gaining so much?

Bitcoin has such a first mover advantage it will be hard for anything to overtake it. The only way I see it overtaking it is if Bitcoin has a major problem, i.e. it somehow gets shut down by some entity or government, at the same time that Ripple is "embraced".

In my opinion, it is not possible for ripple to cross bitcoin. Ripple is not well known coin such as bitcoin. The user and facility of bitcoin is far more than ripple. Bitcoin is unbeatable it is sure. Though ripple has great chance but it is impossible for ripple to overtake bitcoin.
