Thanks for the information @ revelacaogr and for sharing the charts @ NickCrypto!

The dump at the moment hurts a bit, even for me as a long time holder of XRP. But correlated with the actual price of BTC, the decrease isn't that significant. XRP is standing at 0.21$ now, 30% higher than during the dip in the middle of august. On the first look, swell might be disappointing. On the second look is networking exactly that thing, which Ripple needs to become introduced into a wider market and into a general public.

Those charts are irrelevant, the only chart that matters is XRP/BTC not the XRP/USD
XRP/USD is driven by current position of the BTC, fantastic performance of BTC means something completely opposite to XRP's performance.
We are reaching Half year lows XRP/BTC with massive 45% drop during the most important conference which questioning essential foundations of XRP.

This speaks for itself.

Wrong.
All these comparisons from BTC with altcoins are overdue. Only showing who is stuck in the past without comprehending what the future will be about. As long as I have to pay my bills in fiat, the most relevant chart for me is altcoin/USD. Furthermore it is the only chart, which shows the real marketcap of a project. The only common thing of BTC and XRP is: They are both cryptocurrencies. Thats all. Otherwise they have different usecases, are serving different markets, are following different goals. Speaks for itself, if you try to compare them.

When XRP will build enough liquidity (Thanks to acceleration program and xRapid), it will get more independence from BTC.
