Ripple VS Stellar Lumens — Why Stellar May Be The Better Pick

in #ripple7 years ago (edited)

If you’re looking to catch the next coin that rockets up like Ripple, dont look any farther than Stellar Lumens. In fact, the logo of Stellar is a rocket, so its just waiting to take off!

We have all seen the explosion Ripple has seen, more than 10x from its previously somewhat stable price of $.25. It is now sitting at $3!!! Wow. That’s huge growth! And this is from Ripple being picked up by some companies and financial institutions. But why do A LOT of crypto currency enthusiasts hate it?

Ripple is not really expressing the value that most cryptos embrace. This value is being deentralized. Ripple is centralized, and this is a big issue with many crypto investors since the point of cryptos was decentralize everything. Well, maybe there is another way to support the Ripple technology without embracing its centralized properties.

Stellar Lumens is a fork of Ripple and was created to be a decentralized form of it. They basically do the same thing but Stellar Lumens is an open ledger. Stellar Lumens is decentralized and if you look at Ripple as a benchmark for where Stellar can be, then you will see that Stellar Lumens can moon higher than Ripple.

The Numbers

Ripple is sitting at a Price of about $3. That’s huge for a coin with a circulating supply of 38,739,144,847 XRP.

But if you look at Stellar Lumens the circulating supply is much lower at 17,877,206,452 XLM. This about half of the supply of Ripple. This means that if demand for both Ripple and Stellar were equal, the price of Stellar Lumens would be much higher. The price of Stellar is sitting at $.891 right now.

Now just imagine if this coin sees the kind of attention that Ripple is seeing..... If you don’t believ in what Ripple is doing, then hop on the Stellar Lumen rocket and enjoy the ride. This coin has a lot of room for growth, and so does Ripple. But Stellar Lumens is sitting at a very undervalued price.

As always, check this out for yourself and come to your own conclusions. This is not professional investment advice, just my opinion. Happy trading and stay safe

Sort:  

Well, in a world where nearly everything is better than to own Ripple, Lumen is a solid choice - still would vote for ADA though on the long run

I’m in ADA as well. I just wanted to show an alternative to Ripple that is nearly exactly the same except it isn’t centralized

Resteemed

I will buy a little.
