There are many haters for Ripple which is a good thing as you know that people are paying attention to the coin.
One lesson I learnt about Ripple is not to short this coin no matter how high it goes. Many people were burnt shorting Ripple just like Ethereum in its early days.
I won't chase to buy Ripple at high price but wait for it to dip before buying the coin. Then I would sell when it reaches my target price.

Ripple XRP News: Meet Miguel Vias, The Cuban-Born Idealist Behind The XRP Cryptocurrency

Miguel Vias, head of XRP markets at the blockchain startup Ripple, is living the American dream. “My mother smuggled me out of Cuba when I was 2 years old,” Vias told International Business Times. Raised by a single mom in Miami, neither a degree from Yale nor several years at traditional corporations like Bank of America and CME Group have changed his penchant for jokes and repeating how lucky he feels.

“How do you know I don’t have a magic wand?” he replied to a question about the future of Ripple’s cryptocurrency, XRP. CNBC reports XRP is now valued at $26 billion, second only to bitcoin. Vias has a clear vision for XRP’s future. And so far, he’s pursued this overhaul with relentless focus.

Vias joined Ripple in 2016, a company that has raised $93.6 million, Crunchbase reported. Unlike many blockchain executives today, Vias wasn’t crazy about bitcoin in the early days of blockchain experimentation. “I heard about bitcoin, but it wasn’t until XRP that I was really captured by the possibilities,” he said.

The technology that fuels XRP is slightly different than competing tokens like bitcoin and ether. For starters, Ripple still controls the bulk of its cryptocurrency and its network unlike decentralized competitors fueled by community engagement. This makes XRP controversial among cryptocurrency aficionados.

The company is also widely seen as more business-oriented than ideological. “Ripple is not the grand vision of blockchain technology realized,” Logan Kugler, a partner at the hedge fund General Crypto, wrote for the Huffington Post. “Which is why blockchain purists resent it.”

Another key difference is Ripple has a built-in mechanism that can freeze a payment in transit until certain conditions are met, such as a specific date or another online transaction gets completed. “It gets cryptographically frozen, everyone can see it,” Vias explained.

When the broader cryptocurrency market fluctuated and investors worried about a blockchain bubble destined to burst, Ripple countered by announcing it will hold 55 billion XRP tokens in escrow to protect the currency’s long-term liquidity. “This gives the market much more clarity about supply,” Vias said. Next on his agenda, Vias is spearheading a push he described as “radical and aggressive decentralization.”

Decentralization includes partnerships with a variety of virtual marketplaces and financial service providers beyond Ripple's ties to banks and corporate clients. Reuters reported Nejc Kodrič, the CEO of one of Europe’s leading bitcoin exchange markets, Bitstamp, said the demand for XRP is particularly strong.

“The core center of our strategy is partnering with enterprise grade institutions who have a vested interest in making sure the XRP network is as healthy as possible,” Vias said. “A prime example is our partnership with BitGo.” BitGo’s digital wallet recently added XRP support. “In conjunction with that support, they are also running a node on the network,” Vias said. “Because now part of their business now relies on XRP, they have a vested interest in making sure the network is robust.”

Ripple is still focused on payment transfers, first and foremost. But while bitcoin traders are often fiercely anti-capitalist compared to more business-minded XRP users, philosophy still factors into Vias’ vision. “Imagine a world where the price of sending payments is almost zero,” he said. “If you could, I think there are some pretty positive effects something like Ripple could have in terms of the challenges immigrants face.”

Ripple is going down again. Not enough hype guys? I guess that I should set now a buy orde on below 10k sats price. Please fill my order immediately. Grin

Don't worry, XRP is a long-term investment. But if you are in a hurry, so sell it, it will give us even cheaper XRP  Grin

- This is my happy week, the price of the ripple has shown signs of recovery, maybe because of good news from Japan, that made its prices rise again, hopefully it will reach 18k or 20k in the next few weeks. I heard many people say it is a coin garbage but maybe now they will retract that statement, this is a potential and very powerful coin, it is not rubbish. I am very much looking forward to the development team of ripple will give more information and strategy to develop it, that will create trust and attract more investors

 Jun 2, 2017 by Michael del Castillo
It just got a whole lot easier for banks to do business with bitcoin.

Yesterday, Ripple open-sourced the first bitcoin plug-in for its Interledger protocol (ILP), designed to seamlessly let users conduct transactions across a wide range of ledgers.

By open-sourcing the bitcoin tool, along with another plug-in for enterprise-focused platform Chain, Ripple was able to conduct, in a live demo, a single transaction across seven different ledgers. Conducted at the Blockchain Expo in Berlin, Germany, the single transaction went across public blockchains, private blockchains, a centralized ledger and a traditional payment channel.

While no single transaction would likely ever require so many ledger integrations, Ripple CTO Stefan Thomas said the purpose of the demo was to show future users that traditional channels can work in harmony with distributed ledgers.


Thomas said:

    "We think that’s where the future is going. We think that in the future all different ledgers will be tied together and transactions will be very seamless. So we want to make sure that our customers are going to be set up for success in that world."

In addition to the newly open-sourced bitcoin and Chain integrations, an Interledger transaction for a "relatively small" value was also conducted with Ripple’s native currency, XRP, using both an XRP escrow and an XRP payment channel. Ethereum, Ripple’s centralized Five Bells Ledger and a so-called 'trustline' were also used in the transaction. Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked

The payment was converted from fiat to ether to XRP to euros, depending on the payment channels, with Interledger’s connectors converting the currency and forwarding the payments from one ledger to another.
Interoperability in sight

The Interledger demonstration is part of an overall industry trend towards merging blockchains –one that has gained significant momentum this year.



grab it while its still cheap....

easiest way right now is pto deposit fiat (€/$/JPY) at kraken and getting your XRPs there -> no need to pay BTC fees

Indeed but you got XRP trade fee. Stamp do the same one (except JPY) since January.
For me its better to trade XRP/$ than XRP/BTC ; even at 0.20$ the price is good.

300 Million Xrp in one wallet? Must be a greedy banker who wants to rule the crypto market. Must be intended to used for the bank transactions. But if he intendeds to set up a sell wall, it might take months and months for it to break
