I just love the enthusiasm of the XRP army. I don't hold any XRP but I will trade it when the time comes. I strongly believe that Ripple will be one of the leading altcoins with the most volume in the coming of the altcoin season.
Yes you are right, there are many XRP holders who are sure their investment will come good. It is just a matter of time.
You are right, but it still depends on the price when they start holding XRP. For example, for those who have kept it from the price of $ 1 and are still waiting for the price of XRP to return to $ 3, in my opinion, it is not an investment, it is merely speculation.
I understand the distinction between Ripple and XRP, and it is certainly true that XRP has its own fair share of good news, along with Ripple... but that rarely if ever seems to translate into the sort of price movement we would see for other coins.
Not sure why this is, or how much the token-dumping by Ripple plays a part... but regardless, XRP still has a really solid use case and looks good for the long-term.
I agree with you but the problem is that the price though is not reflecting that scenario.
By now it really should have broken the $1 barrier but that along with its all time high of approximately $3.60 during the bull run of end 2017/early 2018 seems a long way away
I guess the XRP price could break the highest price of all time as long as the price of Bitcoin rises to $ 50,000 in the future. I don't want to guess the time because it's never accurate.
