i dont own any XRP but im interested to buy some now. Im ok to hold long terme 2 years + if necessary.
what do you think the value of the coin will be in 1-2 years? realistically...
im thinking of buying 10 000 XRP tonight, is it a good time to buy?
If you are "ok to hold long term 2 years+" then adding xrp to your portfolio or trapper keeper over the next 6 months can be justified.
Others are ready to hodl for 5-10 years.
Just know there is a large group of people that bought xrp at $0.00666 for years and if you bought now it would be around $0.25. Thats pretty expensive to me.
If I were buying now, I'd be looking more to actually using XRP for settlement/cross-border payments/goods and services, not to sell for a native currency like others around here that have made millions of $$$ who have been in XRP from the beginning.
I'd still like to
think that we are in the beginning stages. I mean, how many of our friends and family use XRP to transact? Almost none. So heaps of opportunities for growth in demand.
If supply is reasonably constant (which is the case for XRP with 55b XRP in smart contracts) then rise in demand means increase in price. This is Economics 101 Supply & Demand.
i think we are at the begining of XRP too...why?
well i watched btc journey from a few $$ and goto $100...everyone was thinking similar to god27 comment...but what happened?
then i watched eth journey from 50cents to almost $200...same story, when it hit $10, similar comments to god27
now xrp..a few months ago..off the radar, and at rock bottom price...this is the first run its had...similar to btc going to $50 and eth going to $10
both eth and btc grew at least 20x more over the following yrs,
XRP will do exact the same but even faster and higher..because today the overall market size is much much bigger than ever before and many are willing to risk a few $$ for 5-10XRP

Come to think about it..if you know anyone that plays the lottery, instead of them buying a ticket they prob better of buying 5-10xrp every week, at least they stand a higher chance of a good return.
