$2 will probably be a big resistance point I would think, although Ripple is already trading at $2.16 on Bitthumb!
Maybe $25 is a bit too optimistic, but $2.50 seems so tiny compared to btc which hit 20 grand and some say it go ten times as high.You do realise that a coins value is it's market cap divided by total circulating supply right? You're basically saying that XRP will have a 1 Trillion Dollar market cap (in order to be $25 per)
That's not going to happen anytime soon
If Coinbase adds it then yes I'm sure it will pump again, but I would think $5-10 per long term is probably a bit more realistic, and even that's a stretch
And let's not forget the owners currently hold approx 60% of all XRP...
Hmm. I thought I heard something about the coin becoming more decentralized. I thought they were going to cap the total amount or some of the XRP would be burned during transactions. Anyway I think there will be room for several cryptocurrencies, tokens, and digital assets in the new economy.the criticism is that its a centralised banking coin. centralisation means they can change it at any time, look at the issues in changing bitcoin. how easy would it be to expand from 21 million bitcoins? compare that to ripple or iota and changes can happen at any time. used for purely speculation its a great investment tool, agreed as soon as its listed at coinbase it will moon, just dont be left hodling the bag.

Ripple is pushing for identity with their transactions right? Thats what we need more of in the world, another banking network that can close you down at will.
$2.50 seems tiny because there is just so much damn XRP in circulation. BTC hitting 20k is because there is only less than 17M in circulation, so when the market puts over 300B into it, 20k per is just the math of it
Don't get caught up in the value per coin - it's all about % gains, which is why alts are going nuts right now because getting a coin with a 100M cap to 400M for a 4x return seems a lot easier than getting a 300M BTC cap to 1.2T for the same return
