Following the current trend of XRP, irrespective of SEC bombardments against her, XRP still holds it ground in crypto arena. Imagine XRP wining the suit against SEC then XRP dethroning Bitcoin in the nearest future will be inevitable. Just saying!!!
Ripple wants to replace bitcoin? This is funny to me!

Although Ripple has been able to grow well over the past year (500%), do not forget that Bitcoin is much, much more powerful than what Ripple wants to replace. Ripple may move in the digital currency rankings or show strong price growth, but it is always at the top of the bitcoin table.
Note: Bitcoin has grown 439.64% in the last 6 months.
