Banks are adopting Ripple.

That's all anyone needs to know right there.

Ripple is a payments system. Bitcoin is a monetary base.

The difference could not be starker and those who don't understand it will be doomed to be trashed by it.

I'm in Bitcoin because of one thing and one thing only - an atrophying financial system that's on life support until something better comes along. proprietary technologies like ripple cannot replace that financial system because they are part of it and will atrophy along with it.

Bitcoin and all other genuinely decentralised crypto currencies which are free of counterparty risk can.

Well said. I agree totally. That still doesn't change the fact that XRP is mooning and BTC is gutter-diving
