As we know the crypto sphere, there are several coins in the market competing to conquer the same target; one of the reasons why most of the times we tend to confuse or relate a coin with another. In this matter, there are plenty of cases like this in the sector, but one that has mainly been sounding since so long is the case of Ripple (XRP) and the Stellar Lumens (XLM); two coins with great potential and under the gaze of many people in the industry.
For the one hand, we know very well that Ripple envisions to become a solution for the banking sector, and on the other, we understand Stellar was actually built to resolve the problems Ripple has shown.
Both Stellar and Ripple are good coins which aim to solve the real problems. Ripple has been adopted by many financial institutions and banks, so it's hard to say Stellar could replace it, even leave Ripple behind. But I like Stellar, it has a very clear road ahead, and the team are working hard on developments, partner with big companies as well. I hold them both for sure.
