Are both coins related in anyway because both coins have crashed?
Is Stellar centralised like Ripple and can it too be in trouble by the SEC regulators?
Or Stellar has no connection to ripple and is a totally different alt to ripple that has no ripple executives on stellar's team however the only thing common between the 2 is price correlation?
Stellar has connection to the ripple as Jed is still a part of the stellar team. People were seeing the stellar is just like a second generation of ripple. Stellar can also be targeted like ripple too.
Do you know Jed Mccalleb? the guy who has been doing massive dump in ripple market? That guy was former CTO of ripple and this time he's a part of stellar team. Jed's still having strong correlation with Brad and Larsen.
that's why ripple and XLM are having price correlation.
