I don't believe in Ripple because it was a centralized cryptocurrency, plain and simple. You need to be really good crypto and have something unique in feature to make holders interest and tolerant your centralized.
You might not like ripples because of the system of the platform. but ripple still has a large market and a community that I think is quite large. I used to like a ripple, but now that the price has been destroyed, I no longer see any significant development of this asset.
