so is ripple going to skyrocket? Its funny that you cannot actually buy ripple on any exchange. You have to buy BTC and use BTC to purchase ripple. Same with ethereum. It looks like alt-coins are almost exclusivly dependant on BTC.

That's not true, coinbase does USD to Ethereum, Poloniex does USDT to Ripple and Ethereum. Bitstamp do XRP/USD, and there are probably many others.

Kraken just added XRP/USD pair (and others)
