Topic: Ripple - Why is the value not higher with all it's features. (Read 1890 times)

Yes and that is one thing that is wrong with DASH. Biggest problem of centralisation is that someone can switch all off. No one can switch off Bitcoin. If any government could they already would. Centralised coins will be switched off as soon as any Government will fell threatened by them.

what effect do you think this will have of the price of Ripple?

Centralized is why banks are taking up Ripple.

I think the market has been caught up in the hype of DE-CENTRALIZED currency and forgetting that banks want to control their distributed ledger. It is a viable option for banks to incorporate Ripple to decrease settlement costs, and have control over their operations. What bank is going to let a de-centralized currency controlled by miners that secure the network?

not bad, but I have better:

As of today, Ripple confirmed selected as Blockchain for payments in 5 top banks of Canada.

Please don't spam the forum. Thank you.

if that were true, why is that bad? taking "decentralized" and personal ethics out of of the equation, a digital replacement of fiat currency would be lucrative AF.

People keep repeating "centralised" when Masternode system of Dash is essentially the same as Ripple.


People are afraid about total supply, but Supply of BTC has increased a lot more compared to XRP

XRP is centralized Fiat 2.0 shit, that's why.

No doubt. Anytime someone makes a profit it's good news no matter what the currency. Just pointing out some important information.

yup, realize that is possibly happening, but for someone who bought wayy below the current price, it's pretty rad.

I read somewhere they expect to have around 66 billion XRP out till 2022. SO almost double as now.  In next 10 years whole 100 billions.  I am surprised why price goes up. Or people dont really read and educate themselves before they spend their wealth on Cryptocoins.

Ripple's XRP Reserve is based on Game Theory or Nash Equilibrium economics. Google for more info.

XRP rise in price potential in 2017 is very strong after years of sideways movement.

I'm neither for/against Ripple but I like that they're established, I like Ripple's recent activity and also based on what I continue reading, that XRP fits well with banks who will be offering BTC to its customers for commercial use-cases starting June 2017 in Japan.

The following central banks are using Ripple: Japan, England, Abu Dhabi, European Central Bank. Ripple employees hold key board positions with the FED, HSBC, Barclays, BoA, the Bank of England, CHAPS.

Japan's Virtual Currency Act must be in play before May 2017 so all BTC exchanges must be in place and working by April 30, 2017. That means BTC will be legally traded and regulated in Japanese exchanges before June 2017. The exchanges offering this trading platform are switching to Ripple. Check SBI Holdongs news releases in Japanese (need a Google browser to translate? My wife is Japanese and she confirmed SBI Holdings news releases Google translations were accurate.)

Royal Mint Gold = RMG = 1 gram of gold = 1st Digital Coin of the Royal Mint
Will be released June 2017 and USA ETF trading of RMG will be hosted by the CME Group also will be using Ripple for their trading platform.

same can be said about bitbay! it has the most advanced features and wallet and getting a rollin gpeg in winter. It should have a MK of $50m not $3m

I'm neither pro or anti ripple, but just 10 mins of research debunks all the bullshit opinions by ignorant individuals in this topic labeled as 'facts'.

Because of supply .
RIPPLE does not reflects it's price due to supply + premine + on margin so always lots of sell pressure

and a scam i'll never get tired to repeat this, but ripple can increase their supply when they want, it can't go any higher, the inflation is ridiculous high already, and they use the money to pay their insider

Cause they dun goofed the whole distribution model and ended up looking like a bunch of greedy bastards which is what they are. Nobody wants to be part of that.

Panda poop is scarce, but I don't know if it is valuable.

Because it is centralized

the same reason why Dogecoin is not worth more, the same reason why Ethereum will never go higher than certain price levels when the distribution of the ICO happens fairly and whales don't control 90% of the supply.

it is all about a very simple rule of supply and demand the demand of altcoins will always be inferior and there is nothing to change that. and when the supply is huge there will always be coins available for people to buy without making the price go up.

to put simple when something is scarce it becomes valuable, if you could find Gold grow on trees the value of it would be close to nothing.
