Don't know what to make of Ripple (XRP)?

This is a complex and very well researched piece on the subject.

Among investors, Ripple is one the most divisive cryptocurrencies around – it's either loved or despised, both with equal passion. Even more than ethereum, I believe, it's misunderstood because it's so different from bitcoin.

As the market value of XRP continues to rise, it creates more and more discussion about the merits of this particular Crytpo. XRP is even harder to get a handle on, as so much of the information shared on this particular asset is coloured by the authors own views on whether it represents a legitimate crytpocurrency or not.

I don't necessarily endorse the views of the author, "P4man." If I'm being honest, his analysis is so comprehensive that I will need some time to digest his argument before forming a viewpoint of my own. In an environment where well researched and factual information is hard to come by however, this piece is one of the best I've seen on the merits, or otherwise, of XRP.

It's actually the second largest cryptocurrency by market cap now. Overtook Ethereum last week. Quite an impressive run from XRP, can only think it's to do with speculators betting on it being the next coin after BCH to get added to Coinbase.

Yeah I wonder if it will drop like Bitcoin Cash after the massive FOMO pump when it was listed.
