well, coins like xrp, bch, bchsv, ltc, eos might get your attention. when you have a good strategy, and the right calculation, I think you can make a big profit by using the coins. the coins are coins that have been very popular, and are trusted today.
I can take the risk with the above coins you listed hut not with xrp. Ripple has not be encouraging ever, the price is still in cents and only managed to cross one dollar in 2018. Though it has so much publicity and good advertising but the supply is not good. It is too high. I will not advice anyone to invest in ripple.
If you look a when op posted that, it was posted in October 2018, and till now, ripple still has nothing to write home about, and wen op asked the question, he direct it to that month of October but since that October till date, ripple is still in cent like you said, it is even not a bad thing if they are in cent, at least we understand that they are not the only one that is still in the bear market.
But at least, most coins within the top 50 always follow bitcoin when it rises, but ripple is always just stable, it does not respond to the movement of bitcoin, which made me believe that it is indeed being controlled by banks as we know that it is a banker’s coin, so I don't think there is any much need in actually relying on the ripple Investment for anything, they are just used as stable coin.
