Did you end up getting on XRP? Ripple is a solid coin man, follow your own instincts. There is so much FUD surrounding some very promising coins and you really need to dismiss the noise.
I dont even HODL ripple but i do think it has a bright future.
I did mate yeah got on early this morning as it looked like it was about to go off its **** and go back up to near $2 again but its basically stayed the same since then, i should have jumped on when it wa $1.59 per coin but i kept thinking it wont last i waited and waited and then once it kept climbing before i went to sleep i thought i best get on it before i wake up and see its gone up to atleast $1.80, when i checked this afternoon and it had gone down a few cents and wasnt real happy but thats the nature of the beast.

In other news i have $200 left to invest, any reccomendations guys? im still thinking LBRY or POWR.

Keep in mind i already have Ripple, Tron, Funfair, Po.et, Siacoin, Cardano, Reddcoin, Digibyte, Bytecoin and Dent in my portfolio atm.

If you are so big on Ripple, how can you possibly not own any Stellar ??

That and Verge are the 2 i've been looking at over the last few weeks but havent jumped on yet, im currently watching Power Ledger, Stellar and Walton's price as we speak. I have read good things about it but other coins have drawn me in more i guess. So you'd recommend Stellar then?

Differing opinions are not FUD. Covering your ears and yelling FUD everytime an opposing opinion is given in the crypto world is what is going to bring a lot of people undone.

Also, please expand on why you think it has such a bright future. Look at the tech and the concept. The price volatility is exactly why it won't work, and why the banks won't adopt it. And people are looking to make significant capital gains by investing in it. Makes no sense.

Sorry man, but I'm not going to recommend anything on here. I'll give my opinion and name what I think are good potential prospects, but I aint no financial advisor. I mentioned Stellar as it was essentially developed by the same guy who developed Ripple, but built it around being an open source decentralised platform. In other words, Ripple for the public.
 
This really just reminds me so much of the mining boom. Everyone looking for the next Fortescue.

I think the comparisons to the gold rush are more accurate. The people who got in first made life altering, generational amounts of money, and now there are a lot of other every-day people looking for those same level of riches. Which is why it's interesting to take notice of the people who have already taken on the attitude, "If everyone's digging for gold, sell shovels." Everything from scams, to educational courses and more. And the space will only continue to fill up. It's still very early days in the crypto space.

VEN is about to pump pretty hard. They finished a live stream announcement of a partnership with a major European supply chain. We just had the usual dip as the whales drop their loads after a announcement like these but the stream was super positive and professional, Vechain (VEN) is a serious outfit. Also Vechain are about to jump off the Ethereum network and onto their own Mainnet which will go into beta in Q2 under a new name which will be Vechain Thor (VET). Its gonna be a monster of a coin and i dont think you will ever get it as cheap as it right now.

Im talking about VEN which is Vechain.
In a few months Vechain will rebrand itself as Vechain Thor and will then change its abbreviation to VET. At the moment though it's known as VEN

First of all price volatility? If thats your worry than you can give up on the dream of any bank ever adopting crypto at all. I do however think Ripple is 1 of the least volatile coins going, forget the major pump and dump it recently went through which was built on hype, once it settles it will become a highly stable coin due to it's high supply. Ripples high supply is the reason banks are looking into it. Just the same way central banks can print infinite amounts of money for their respective country, and thus countries technically have an infinite market cap. Ripple is positioning themselves to function the same way on a global scale. The money held in reserve is the same as money not yet printed. It means nothing as only whats in circulation matters.
There is so much misinformation about the 60% of XRP locked away in a vault. People think the founders are going to cash it out and tear down XRP but it is locked away until it is widely adopted which i believe it will be and those coins are needed in circulation to provide stability.
Now I'm not saying that XRP will make you a millionaire. It might if you own enough coins, but it will make you money and Ripple will be 1 of those coins left standing when all the shit coins get found out.
As for banks not adopting it, it is by far and away the bankers coin of choice with literally dozens of banks from all corners of the earth in partnership or experimenting with the technology.

This is why I'm keeping a pretty close eye on any new exchanges that come on board & seem reputable. The horse have already bolted with Binance/KuCoin, but I think there's probably room in the space for someone else to come in & do things better

I’m not sure if it’s public knowledge but you can add ANZ to the list of those conducting trials.
