Why you should invest in Ripple (XRP) and forget Stellar (Lumens) - Comprehensive review of two blockchain based payment companies
Ripple and Stellar, both Blockchain based payment processing companies, bring similar value proposition to the table with similar set of technologies, but different target markets. If you have to choose one for for investment portfolio, which one would you bet on?
Well look no further, in the below table I have compiled all the reasons why you should invest in Ripple and forget Stellar.
Management
While investing in a company, the first parameter that I tend to look is not the price but the management behind the scene.
- Ripple's Chris Larsen has successfully spearheaded two successful Fintech Startups E-Loan and Prosper, which are now considered to be unicorns (> $1B value)
- Stellars' Jed McCaleb had founded two blockbuster companies eDonkey and Mr. Gox, but sky rocketed and then BOOM, ended either in Lawsuits or Bankruptcies.
Whom would you trust?
Target Market Size
Secondly, do you think Stellar's $1 Trillion addressable target market stand close to Ripple's $150 Trillion addressable target market? Remember Ripple is trading 10 times of Stellar, target market difference is 150 times.
Investors
Ripple scores again as it is backed by Google and Global banks like Standard Chartered, while Stellar is backed by Stripe another Fintech startup founded in 2010.
I hope this comparison brings out very clearly why I consider Ripple to be a better investment decision than Stellar.

maybe you are absolutely right talking about Ripple and Stellar as companies, but if you look at them from the trader PoV ->
it's almost a rule of thumb that coin of 1k satoshi can jump much higher (in terms of %%), than one of 10k :)
and as Ripple is becoming more and more mainstream, the less volatile it should be
So if you want bigger ROI - watch Ripple and trade Stellar's Lumen,
just my 2 cents :)
From Investor point of view, a corrupt company can declare bankruptcy overnight... I am not saying Stellar is corrupt, but has equal chance of dooming as mooning :)
If u wanna trade, trade a firm that u know will bounce back, u shud hav that confidence... Else u may end up booKing losses..
Please resteem if you think my analysis is convincing... Help me and others :)
