Topic: [XRP] Ripple Speculation - page 449. (Read 637675 times)

I think we all should dump our ripple Why ? Because BTC has lost it's value and all other Alt's. Make sense ? No But dump it LOL 
Some say smart whales ? Maybe, maybe not

It's good time to buy more ripples. I just did this. This coin has power!

Only coin still up in the top 100!

This was one of my big high risk bets recently - already nice profit. I'm sure it will come down a bit as well though - probably just a lag given the limited market access. Still, I think Lykke looks like a reasonable project compare to most in the top 100. Definitely a long term hold for me.

So just thinking. Yesterday someone sold enough to drop the Euro/XRP down to .6euro (.7c usd). Today there was another sell that seen it drop from 11000sat to 6000sat. Coincidence? or someone getting some big pay days, the old Ripple guy that setup Stellar maybe? even though the price goes back up it shaves 1bill off the market cap, thats a big sell!

Anyway, hope it happens again:) good buy!

same, there seems to be a lot of small orders (mostly 1000) all the way down to 6000 sats again which means when it lets go again the same will happen. its a deliberate action so wouldnt be surprised if it happens again.

Why would you place such big orders that low when you would be happy filling them at what it is now, being so far down its not there to scare people, its there to get filled. it always seems to get to this cluster when it gets setup.

Wow, I wish I could pick some up for 660!!

A quick glance at coinmarketcap shows that only 4 of the top 100 have gone up over the last 24h... and they haven't gone up much.
If your alt of choice is plummeting, then the reason is the market as a whole, not some particular disaster befalling your alt.

Edit: now 2/100 are up. Lykke still miraculously holding out at +5% !

Wow there was an epic dump on Bitstamp, not sure if it shows across exchanges but XRP went from 11000sats to 660sats in a split second, all buy orders got filled all the way down! was epic and wish i set some buys down there.

There is about 2mill worth of buys at the 6000sat mark and they didnt get filled so me thinks they want it to get there again. Each time i have seen those buys pop up at a point, somehow XRP gets there even when i think its too low.

All but the one coin ive been bugging everybody with for some time now.. LYKKE!

Why can't you just spend 10 seconds looking at the coin market cap? ( coinmarketcap.com )
Most of all coins are down today. Sometimes it happens. This is very normal. This isn't the end of the world. Don't spread FUD just beacause!
Now, go study finance and investing, and let the market work as it should

XRP has a very big decline compared to yesterday. Yesterday the market had been in 13000 satoshi. While its current range is only 9000 to 9500 satoshi. Should the price increase because bitcoin decreased. This is all beyond expectations. There is a very large dump of altcoin XRP (Ripple).

I have just accumulated 1600 XRP. Someone should just dump more so we could buy more. Make it at least $0.20 for us.

^thanks guys

btc just hit $1880  

just a thought...i just noticed something...

is usdt being pumped? hmmmm wierd




if top 3-5coins dump more...most run for cover to fiat/usdt or a mid/high table alt, that they have been with for yrs

Correct. Ripple has consistently defended the XRP market from dumping by insiders. We've gone to court to do it and we've negotiated agreements to do it. And, of course, it's for our protection as much as anyone else. We'll be the largest holder of XRP for many, many years.

XRP will go down under 8,000sats and it will stay idle for a while .
Just go and sell it now before it's too late. All altcoins are deeply down .

Not true. You should get your facts straight.

"All of Jed and his children's remaining XRP, approximately 5.3 billion XRP, will be placed in a custody account at Ripple. While Jed retains full title and ownership of his remaining XRP, Ripple will control the release of his XRP in a manner consistent with the settlement agreement. "

Please do your research before talking FUD.

those wondering why the blood on not only the dance floor but the entire arena...

i pm'd a few people the btc price when it was rising to $2500 a few days ago..
i said prob dump at $2650ish...down to $2100s, then rebound before back down under $2000 to $1880s....we could be heading to around $1600s - $1800s btc (worst case $1400)
it will recover fast just like all other good coins, the fundamentals havent changed and the tech just keeps improving on each coin.

media saying bitcoin correction incoming yesterday
the market grew to quick, it has to be corrected

+tons of icos all cashing out into fiat to pay for development on their projects ( eth could dump under $100 as it has most of the icos)

+btc segwit people unsure...price pumped on the rumour...dumped with lack of news or no news ( i think )


as for XRP...its a 50/50 from here...maybe up..maybe down,  for a day or two i think...hard call

This is healthy for all crypto as you will all see in the coming weeks and months.
The traders that dumped for fiat/usdt will be sitting on the sidelines waiting to rebuy

+as time passes new fiat will arrive too..
A- buy cheap coin
B- to average down their previous entry price


good luck everyone
research and decide your next move calmly and think ahead not of right now.
 


ps..im gonna say it again, too many people i know are still doing margin...and many lost alot more due to using margin on exchanges
     margin is dangerous and misleading to many people that think they understand how to margin, but dont understand crypto

yeh a Bill a month wont drop the price at all lol major dips each time they dump that. Lets not forget the owner of Stellar has a tone of XRP to that heis allowed to dump anytime he wants.

Oh all that market cap gained from the BTC dip is almost gone ripplers, bad thing is BTC went down even further and poor xrp got left out of another pump due to it. All good though, they are sponsoring a conference coming up, that should make the coin boom! lol

Ok so are you ready for them ? And by them I mean the masses:

Bitcoin rival Ripple is suddenly sitting on billions of dollars worth of cryptocurrency
Blockchain start-up Ripple is in a precarious position for a 5-year-old company.
The business is still in its very early days but suddenly has billions of dollars worth of cryptocurrency on its balance sheet.
Ripple, which built a digital payments network for real-time financial transactions, is also the creator and biggest owner of Ripple XRP, a digital currency that has increased in value by 40 times this year.

There's a total of 100 billion XRP in existence, each priced at about 26 cents. The $26 billion of total value is second among cryptocurrencies, behind bitcoin, which is valued at $41 billion.
Ripple owns about 61 percent — or $16 billion worth — of XRP.
If that were factored into the company's valuation, Ripple would be worth more than all but four U.S. start-ups — Uber, Airbnb, Palantir and WeWork.
XRP is surging alongside bitcoin and ether as well as smaller digital currencies like dash and monero. They're all benefiting from the growing interest in blockchain, a distributed electronic ledger that makes all transactions trackable. Unlike other cryptocurrencies on the market, XRP is tied to — and majority-owned by — a single company.

That's led to concern among XRP investors and enthusiasts that Ripple will one day decide to capitalize on its massive stake and flood the market with currency. Some venture investors would surely welcome cashing in on some of that value after pouring about $94 million into the company.
But for people with thousands (or millions) of dollars wrapped up in XRP, the fear of a sudden excess of supply has been unsettling, particularly considering the volatility of the currency. The price fell 13 percent late in the day on Thursday and double-digit daily moves are normal.
'Off the table'

To create some long-term stability and ease those concerns, Ripple announced a plan last week for the structured sale and use of its currency. By the end of 2017, the company will put 55 billion of its XRP into escrow and will unleash up to 1 billion into the market every month. Thus, investors will have some sense of what's coming.
"We decided to take the issue off the table," Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse said in an interview. "We wanted to make sure we were combating any uncertainty about supply."
Garlinghouse is a well-known name in Silicon Valley. He had senior executive roles at Yahoo and AOL and was CEO of Hightail (formerly YouSendIt) from 2012 to 2014. He joined Ripple in 2015, and earlier this year took over the CEO role from founder Chris Larsen, a serial entrepreneur, who previously started online lender Prosper.
Garlinghouse likened Ripple's situation to Yahoo, which derives almost all of its current value from its large stake in China's Alibaba. (Yahoo's core business is being sold to Verizon and the Alibaba stake is being spun out into a new holding company called Altaba.)
The analogy only goes so far, as equity investors haven't ascribed a big multibillion dollar valuation to Ripple. The company last raised money in September, when the XRP currency was worth a tiny fraction of its current price.

However, Ripple's business has picked up quite a bit of momentum since then, which helps explain at least some of XRP's rally. Last month, Ripple signed up 10 new financial institutions, including BBVA, to its payments platform that supports speedy transactions by eliminating all the friction that exists between various currencies and financial systems.
Global banks including Bank of America, RBC and UBS are also customers. While bitcoin is the more established cyptocurrency, it's primarily used today as an investment vehicle and has run into big latency problems with handling transactions.
Ripple and ethereum have emerged as the early leaders in enabling business arrangements, with Ripple trying to build the digital payments standard for the financial sector.
"Some of those banks are all in and some are still in the early stage running a pilot," Garlinghouse said. "We have real customers touching real production systems. We're the only company you can say that about in our space."
