Yup, been happening for awhile. Its the natural rise of alts along with BTC as others get excited as they see an alt grow, they buy some, it dumps but the mainstream buyers dont sell so it doesnt completely drop. Its not unfortunately news of a conference or banks buying big. It tends to happen with the cheaper alts as there is less loss for those dumping if they are not the first to do so. Like i said everyone benefits but any alt buyer can to by riding it with them (only if you trade).

Ive been quite clear on how i like what Ripple has done and all ive asked to do is be shown some XRP buying news. In doing so im negative and a troll. People looking to buy have a right to hear some other sides and it would be wrong for them not to ask the same, its their hard earned dollars. Even said if you can show me that news ill join the XRP bandwagon for more than just pumping...

Oh and 'g' i didnt say sell at the bottom of a dip genius, a dip is a curve going down unless you have some scientific way to pick the exact start of a dip. it has a start and an end. Unfortunately you look like a fool for not realising it and making daily money. What you think its just one guy pumping your alts and then dropping them? nope others are riding the wave up, and the DIP down.

Why do you need buy statements from banks? How it will help you? Are you really naive that people will put a red carpet in front of you saying "Buy, because pump is just starting!". They can show you and dump and the moment you buy, you can buy even from them, again what is your solid point here?

You gonna sink in waves, you gonna sit and think on where is your floor to short and accept losses, for one simple reason, you do not understand value and demand this product brings.

Are you ready for this weekend, news! Ripple Unveils Strategy to ‘Become More Decentralized than Bitcoin:

Prominent FinTech payments firm Ripple has announced a strategy that it believes will ultimately make its blockchain more decentralized than Bitcoin.

Ripple’s technology chief Stefan Thomas has revealed a three-point strategy toward making Ripple’s blockchain, the Ripple Consensus Ledger (RCL), more secure, efficient and decentralized than Bitcoin.

In a blog published today, Thomas stated:

    A key benchmark that we aim to achieve is to become more decentralized than Bitcoin, which at the time of writing is 51% controlled by just five mining pools. This means the largest five pools working together could achieve a 51% attack and reverse transactions (double spend) at will. For Ethereum, this number is even lower: only three pools are needed for a takeover.

Created in 2012, the RCL was developed as an enterprise-ready public blockchain – in contrast to bitcoin – geared for banks and payment providers to process cross-border payments. The RCL also serves as the root ledger for XRP, Ripple’s native digital asset.

Ripple has fielded criticism from the crypto community since its release, with the most common accusation of being a centralized network.

For its part, the decentralization of the Ripple blockchain was a process that began ‘right at its inception’, according to Thomas. “We intentionally haven’t rushed the process and have been making continuous progress all along.”

The path toward decentralization is now a priority, as Ripple ropes in more customers in banks and payment providers around the world, underlining the need to diversify the validator nodes to form a more robust and resilient blockchain.

The strategy involves three fundamental steps.

First, is Ripple’s foray to diversify the validator nodes on the blockchain. “Today, RCL has 25 validator nodes running, but continuing to grow and diversify this list of recommended validator operators is a priority for us,” wrote Thomas. The ultimate aim is to further avoid the risk of a single point of failure, with diversification of nodes across several geographical locations and software platforms.

Secondly, Ripple will recruit attested validators to the network. It will monitor new validators joining the current set of 25 nodes, checking their performance on “consensus agreement rate, uptime, verification of identity and public attestation.”

Finally, Ripple will add attested validators to its Unique Node Lists (UNLs). A UNL is a list of transaction validator nodes that are seen as ‘trusted’ validating nodes operated by Ripple. The company’s plan is to phase out the nodes it controls, replacing them with attested third-party validators until no single operator controls a majority of trusted nodes on the blockchain.

“Over the course of the next 18 months, for every two attested third-party validating nodes that meet the objective criteria mentioned above, we will remove one validating node operated by Ripple, until no entity operates a majority of trusted nodes on the RCL,” Thomas revealed.

He further stated:

    To match Bitcoin, RCL would need just 16 trusted validators. Add more, and the number of tolerable faults increases accordingly. In other words, RCL will not just meet, but exceed the decentralization level of other public blockchains.

The Ripple executive also contends that Ripple has the upper hand on Bitcoin due to the way the blockchains reach consensus. Thomas claimed that Ripple validators are less likely to be malicious or attacked successfully since they are chosen on ‘merit’. Unlike Bitcoin validators, chosen based on their proof-of-work (PoW) mining.

“Bitcoin chooses validators solely based on their mining power, which actually deincentivizes security,” Thomas wrote. “Security measures cost money, but don’t improve on the speed of mining.”

Earlier this year, Ripple laid claim to match the transaction output of Visa, the world’s largest payments network with 70k transactions at an average time of 3.7 seconds.

Yay! there it is! the admission all the hype is nothing but speculation! hope all read that one. Funny that, you can post every link and news under the sun about banks and the the protocol and conferences but when someone asks if you have one about a bank using XRP for more than transaction fees you arent customer support and we are a pest.

P.s i give more money than what ripple is worth to bums on the street so i aint mad about your under 20c coin lol

Sorry Stell but if you don't want cheap XRP because you sold already I see no reason why you'd come to this thread daily to announce the downfall (which is just a guess, no better than anyones).

I'll say something more: because you go through all this trouble, it's because you actually think the XRP pricd WON'T decline. Otherwise you'd just wait until it naturally fell and buy back then.

It's not cheap people ! It's actually priced at the highest prices it's ever been. People come here because it's a discussion and the discussion happens to be XRP. Many on this board are blinded by there qualitative views on what's going on with XRP. The quantative information show that it's way over priced !

Go do the research every day people are buying it at the high price to have it dumped on them because there is no volume to support the high price !

The volume looks like a bell curve !

I'm not saying it is cheap now, I said you are spreading these messages one or two times a day with cherrypicked facts hoping to influence all readers here, so it could get cheap for you to buy!

Not sure what ive been asked but i have provided plenty of facts and its you guys that cant provide anything other than hope. SHOW US SOME XRP BUY NEWS!!!

Look at the BTC chart and look at the XRP chart and tell me how you can not see what is really going on. The smart trader will be selling on the XRP dip, buying into BTC as it shoots over 1900 today, then convert it back for more XRP. i advised that yesterday as well and you guys could have benefited by more XRP if you wish. Its exactly how Bitcoiners are benefiting from you so do it back to them.

Alright, that is perfectly clear now!

I saw this coming four (4) days ago.. see below:

deja vu:

Programmed sell of ALT prior to a BTC pump.  This was done by BTC maximalist trying to teach the ALTs who is king.  Been here done that.
Crypto is a dirty space.

The symptoms started yesterday and could get worse.

Wasnt going to bother with this thread but good to see others have the exact same questions. The 'trolls'(anyone with a negative view on your beloved coin) are right. Shut us up by showing some news that a bank is buying and stocking XRP. pages of 'duiscussion' are not that.

And to say we wouldnt hear about it is laughable and is the funniest excuse ive heard (besides polo crashes). They will most certainly make sure you hear about it as it will cause the coin to boom. Lets not forget marketing geniuses google are in on this to. Its simple Ripple labs were smart enough to produces an awesome piece of Fintech to do with the crypto space that allows them to make money off the trechnology and some small profit off cryptos, thats what they have been able to achieve and its Brilliant! No ones denying that and its why i admire Ripple.

Its well known that banks want nothing to do with the crypto space as their money and control is in FIAT. So now why would they all of a sudden buy into this coin for anything other than transaction fees. Simple, again, Ripple allows them to benefit of the PROTOCOL without disrupting their bread and butter.

Its good to see others arent blind but unfortunately its a lost cause. IF you are a non believer you are wrong and a troll, your comments will quickly go back pages, covered up by pictures and news of conferences to ensure the hype men suck in the blind. And especially listened to the guy that predicted the rise of ETH and even the natural rise of alts lol im sure every one that bought ETH read it from Mr Pump instead of simply reading news. Funny how i benefited and i never got advice from Pumps crystal ball....

In other news, bitcoin dips, bitcoiners pump alts, resupply and buy back into BTC on the rise. If you cant see that trend and benefit from that then just believe its a XRP boom!

Edit: and on queue, look at that, the reds starting to appear on XRP as the greens are appearing on BTC. Thanks for lending me that crystal ball Ripplers

I am so tired of POLO so I transferred some XRP to Bittrex.

WOW!  IT TOOK LESS THAN 10 SECONDS FROM THE TIME I CLICKED ON MY CONFIRM MAIL FROM POLONIEX.

BTC IS SO DEAD!  I have been waiting for 6  trasanction confirmations from BTC for 5 days .
FUCK BTC!
FUCK BTC!

LOVE XRP  Kiss Kiss Kiss Kiss Kiss
LOVE XRP  Kiss Kiss Kiss Kiss Kiss

I'm getting screwed by Polo big time. They cost me so much money its not even funny. I'm still in it still have lots but they still cost me a lot too its major BS.

I'm really upset about this.

The site crashes, then everyone gets scared and dumps.

No other site crashes like this one.

It never used to. The only time it ever crashes since April 1st is when XRP or STR are going up. I have a tweet I sent them from weeks ago saying hey XRP is going up the site better not crash again. No joke I sent that tweet before both these crashes the last week or so

Yes, something is very strange with POLO.  It just does not make any sense that they could not get their system running correctly.  Goshhh they have been in business for years and have an enourmous market share and still this happens OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER.

I get the feel that they have preferential trading to some people.. possibly themselves.  The system today was so unresponsive and rejecting every trade I tried to make, yet many other trades were going through the ticker so it was working.

I can understand it could be the heavy load of 30,000 thousand people clicking on sell or buy at the same time but with todays tech this should be no problem.  Although I really dont know anything about this kind of load and if the systems could handle it.  I am assuming that this is a no brainer for markets like nasdaq, but POLO just does not know "how-to" or are screwing us all!

what do you guys think of Bittrex? or kraken? have not traded on either, but thinking of trying as Polo lag so bad.
