Will Ripple XRP be the number one cryptocurrency before the end of the year?
No way and that isn't going to happen anytime. Cryptocurrency is a decentralized system in nature but ripple isn't decentralized and so, this one reason will make it fail in that area because real and huge investors that understand that cryptocurrency is suppose to be operated freely won't invest in ripple
no matter how good the XRP is, I don't think its potential will exceed Bitcoin. well, for now, we know that bitcoin is the king of crypto. maybe the XRP can beat the position of other coins, because there are so many advantages that the coin has, but, I think it is very difficult to achieve XRP.
