Are you aware of that there are faster altcoins than ripple? Maybe you are a little bit outdated and you are still on 2015.
It will increase transaction speed many times. It has advanced technical team and excellent road map.
And about which roadmap are you talking about? Ripple does not have a good roadmap, it is outdated too, and the dev's have not updated it for a year.
Maybe the only good thing about ripple is the team and the link that they have with major banks, but that is useless, because banks are only looking about the Tech of ripple, not the coin.
