The positive news about bitcoin will bring lots of newbies to crypto and they will look for interesting coins for investments. Let's give some useful advice that they don't make wrong decisions and we show them the best coins of crypto.
the best advice that i can give a newcomer is that only because some altcoin has a high rank in some list on a website (like coinmarketcap.com for example) it does NOT mean it is a good altcoin. in fact most of the top ranking altcoins are the worst coins that exist.
as for XRP i can add that they can control all the coins on the network. they have already done it once that i know of where they took the coins of someone (i think one of the devs) without needing him to consent or sign anything.
