Big/medium banks are never going to use Ripple, theyre only trying it out and will drop it then make their own technology (not de-centralized!)
Blockchain will change how we send money, but not through banks. Theyre completely against de-centralized control of financial system. We need blockchain solutions like Kora (

I believe that in this market there is no guarantee that in the future this or that project will develop and live in this community. And Ripple is no exception. I think to date, this coin is well kept among all altcoins, and is in good demand among the community, and therefore bury Ripple does not make sense. But what will happen next with this project, time will tell.
