Im a little bit confused as Im new to this my friend is making a fortune from ripple but not actually owning any as he is investing in it, is this better then having ripple sitting in a wallet?
Just sell some of your ripple and then leave the rest in your wallet, this time the price of ripple is in the peak and if you are trying to buy it and then you are taking the very big risk for your money. That may better just waiting for another dump as soon as possible until you'll see the price of ripple will down.
I believe that it defends on the person' s situation but I personally choose buy because for me it is better than ripple trading. I am comportable of buying and we all know that buying is also a part of earning a profit. Though ripple trading can also help us to have an exact and good service, for me buying is much better and safe in any risk that may encounter when we do ripple trade.
