Your shitcoins are so far away from Ripple's level you really need to consider selling it all and going all-in on XRP.

https://www.xrpchat.com/topic/30588-hi-im-bob/

Trump only said that the only crypto asset worth investing into is XRP.
Get it while it's cheap retards.
The only coin that's being adopted by industry.

RIPPLE WILL BE ON COINBASE: SPECULATION + PROOF.

Of all the rumors that have emerged
Of coins being listed to Coinbase
NEO, NANO, Monero, Dash etc.
Coinbase never budged, they never responded in any way as if it was not even there

They ONLY responded when rumors regarding XRP appeared. TWICE! Why would they do this? Why only when XRP gets rumored to be listed?

Why would Coinbase list a complete scam coin like Bitcoin Cash? They hold THOUSANDS of Bitcoins, and got a free copy of Bitcoin Cash - from a business perspective - it is extremely profitable to sell this (at your own exchange).

>Coinbase, from a business perspective, needs the price currently to be as low as possible. They know for a fact it will cause a moon regardless and generate outstanding revenue. Likely, they will purchase XRP directly from Ripple at a discount as well.
>Coinbase is a company. They make money and know how to do it well.
>Coinbase recently hired 90 new people WHICH ARE ACTIVE AS OF TODAY. 410 more (500 in total WILL BE COMING BEFORE MAY 2018). Coinbase is PREPARING FOR SOMETHING HUGE.

The writing is on the wall.

OK, that's all for tonight. It was good talking with you. Have a good night.

The Governor of the People’s Bank of China (PBoC) has said it is open to digital currencies that don’t disrupt the financial system.

He also said that it would accept cryptocurrencies that ‘bring efficiency, low cost and safety’ to consumers as long as they ‘don’t directly conflict with the current financial stability and financial order,

btw, Ripple Labs has many business ties on China and months ago it hosted a Chinese delegation of academics, central bank officials and relevant industry officials at its headquarters in Silicon Valley.

Yeah, the top executives of Coinbase and Ripple are probably appearing on CNBC together to say that XRP doesn't meet the guidelines of cryptos that are eligible for trading on coinbase, and that XRP isn't even a crypto, and it goes against everything crypto is all about, and do you want 2008 to happen all over again?!?

As far as I know, the feature where users are rewarded in BAT is not enabled yet. Furthermore, if it were enabled, why would users use their BAT to pay the youtuber? Wouldn't they keep the BAT for themselves and use it to buy groceries, or pay for their car, or invest it, etc?

If advertisers start using BAT to buy adspace from websites and content creators, the website/content-creator would keep some BAT for himself, and offer the rest to viewers to incentivize them to view ads. The website/content-creator would be a middle-man. There would be no need for him to recieve donations from end-users. However, the website/content-creator could require a user to spend BAT to access certain content. For example, pay $0.05 worth of BAT to view this video/article/etc.

BAT's only advantage is being a first-mover, and they need to move faster in my opinion. The entire concept can be implemented with any crypto and any browser. It's only a matter of time before someone else does it with a crypto that has more market adoption and faster transaction times.

Prime example. Ripple's XRP. This is in fact an amazing product. Here's some actual facts to counter the lies you hear on a daily basis.

- Ripple is centralized!!
No, it is not. Especially since latest release of 0.81 https://ripple.com/dev-blog/rippled-version-0-81-0/ Ripple works day and night to make XRP more decentralized.

- Ripple can just flow the market with all XRP! Exit scam!
No, they can not you dumb asshole. XRP is locked in escrow (a crypto vault) and will be released steadily over years.

- Banks will never use XRP.
They already are. Alongside their xCurrent and xVia software. XRP aids in reducing costs even further, which is why it is intresting for them.*3 out of 5 biggest payment providers in the world are going to use XRP in 2018*

- You can't mine Ripple.
This is true, it is relatively energy-neutral and pre-mined. A bitcoin, by nature, is also just a certificate that some chink's GPU solved a riddle. .

Ripple is the market leader in regulatory means and in an event of a ban likely the only survivor besides privacy coins.

Ripple has always been a top coin, and likely always will be, even if it is difficult to understand for forum dwellers like you.

Please present your FUD/questions so that others can learn from the answers and actual facts.

[Performance]
-Ripple consistently handles 1,500 transactions per second, 24x7.
-Payment channels can process 10s of 1000s of transactions per second.

.
[Cost]
-A standard transaction costs just 0.00001 XRP.
-The cost is not paid to any party: it's irrevocably destroyed.

.
[Real-world use]
-5 institusions are currently using XRP (MoneyGram, Cuallix, FlashFX, IDT and MercuryFX).
-Many banks are currently using xCurrent. Since xRapid is cheaper (saves up to 60%) and provides final settlement, they are likely to transition to it.
-Bichip will use XRP in its RFID chips.
-A w3c standard that Ripple helped develop (and was demo'd by Microsoft) will be available in all major browsers, it'll facilitate paying with XRP.

.
[Economics]
-The supply is fixed.
-Unlike Bitcoin, there's no inflation. Bitcoin uses PoW which relies on inflation and/or high fees. Bitcoin requires $18M of net new $ flowing in just to maintain the price!!

.
[Security]
-Unlike Bitcoin, double-spending isn't possible. Bitmain (a Chinese company) can rollback Bitcoin's chain and bunkrupt the whole ecosystem.
-An attack could only stop new transactions temporarily. Participants would simply remove bad participants from their list

.
[Decentralisation]
-Each participant can run a validator and use his own list of validators.
-validators role is to agree on an order for new transactions
-10s of reputable public & private entities around the world are currently running validators (e.g., Microsoft, MIT, CGI, WorldLink, Bahnhof,..)
-Consensus for the order of new transactions requires a supermajority of 80%

.
[Incentives]
-XRP is a revenue source for Ripple Labs. This aligns its incentives with XRP hodlers. It uses the revenue to improve the tech and expand XRP's marketshare.
-Ripple Labs share is locked in 55 batches on the network. Only one batch can be unlocked per month. It would take them 5 years to unlock them all. XRP is sold only to long term investors (i.e., they can't dump).

One crypto to rule them all.
