Some people hate Ripple but I still choose to NOT selling my XRP!
This is why:
they are still alive, many coins from 2014 are almost dead, Ripple NOT and in top 3.
Ripple has working software, many coins just don't
15 of the top 50 banks work already with Ripple
The Bank of England completed a proof-of-concept. Ripple showing real time cross-border payments are possible!

state bank of india (sbi) is the government bank whose transaction is much more than another banks of india, if this is write that sbi approve ripple transaction then all other banks of india will definitely approve ripple then, INDIAN BANKS means a huge jump to ripple (total no bank 18 private sector bank, 28 public sector bank).

Further Decentralizing the XRP Ledger
As we continue these initiatives to further decentralize the system, XRP Ledger will inherently become even more resilient. A key benchmark that we aim to achieve is to become more decentralized than Bitcoin, which at the time of writing is 51% controlled by just five mining pools. This means the largest five pools working together could achieve a 51% attack and reverse transactions (double spend) at will. For Ethereum, this number is even lower: only three pools are needed for a takeover. To match Bitcoin, XRP Ledger would need just 16 trusted validators. Add more, and the number of tolerable faults increases accordingly. In other words, XRP Ledger will not just meet, but exceed the decentralization level of other public blockchains.)

That's why I see a good future for Ripple.
