It not only that, XRP is not as bad as what people are thinking about it. It may have slumped in weeks or months but that is how the market flows. XRP has one of the fastest and cheapest transactions in blockchain and I still think that there are still a lot of develoments coming in the future.
Agree with both the aspects (transaction speed/cost and development). But still I am one of the most vocal detractors of XRP here in Bitcointalk. My opposition to XRP has nothing to do with the technology or the cost. The reason I hate XRP is because it is just the opposite of the original cryptocurrency which was invented by Satoshi. He had invented Bitcoin, which is decentralized and well-distributed. On the other hand Ripple is centralized and most of the supply is owned by a handful of individuals.
