and I also ask, how can you ask why the ripple died?
ripple has a strong investor and cooperation, even though many banks support the ripple project, so it is very unlikely (99%) for now ripple suddenly dies,
yeah that's why Ripple still exist untill today because ripple backed by big company, especially from banking industry where the are partnership with Ripple, that's make Ripple Stronger
Who is the company that backed ripple? i have seen so many news and not even one of them has backed ripply. The bankers are even choosing to use blockchain that created by R3 consortium. In this case, ripple act as a looser but the speculators are still throwing their money to the ripple.
This is not even a transparent company. People these days are doing very wrong by throwing their money to the ripple.
