It was about to flippen with XRP but all of a sudden we got a XRP pump out of nowhere. Basically it was mostly these 2 coins which almost hit 20% gain in about a day.
From what I understand the pump might of either been due to the Ripple CEO saying "We are more decentralized than ETH and BTC" or that Binance added some XRP trading pairs.
The 2 Coins After BTC - XRP & ETH have been gaining mass adoption recently. The Adoption is massive people have been showing keen interest in the digital assets for the top 3 coins Also there has been news from SBI Bank for the adoption of top 3 coins on their new exchange called VCTRADE. Binance recently added XRP as a base Pair Also there are major banks and industries coming forward to create platforms for the top 3 coins.
That listing of a separate XRP market in Binance is big. Actually I haven't seen XRP taking down ETH for long. January is the last month XRP is at number 2 otherwise ETH will take the second spot again this month. The great fork is coming soon.
