i always said ripple was a bad investment. firstly ripple's circulating supply is too much. and they do not have much to offer to their investors. you have to go for more innovative coins. you should invest more innovative money.
it was holding good at sub 10k range.. and heard rumors of some good news as well...
but unfortunately there is not enough support to hold 10k level,
it might dip more but do expect some movement after st Aug
