Ripple is going to be enlisted on Coinbase.... yes I know, we all got fooled by that "fake" video and all the hype, but I still believe it's gonna happen. As I had stated in my earlier post, coinbase would not have enlisted ripple since they were still reeling under the criticism they got for bitcoin cash insider trading. All the hype and the bubble that was created just because ripple was gonna be on coinbase, was clearly a pump and dump scheme of the "whales".
It's important to know that this is nothing new for ripple. There always have been a lot of ripple haters. I remember the same thing had happened to ripple exactly one year back, when ripple soared to about 32 cents and then was dumped fantastically. That's when I had bought my ripple and have held that since then. There was so much FUD around ripple back then... people literally stating that "ripple will die a slow death", etc., etc. But eventually ripple turned out to be the best performing major crypto.
Why is it that until December 2017, we could see only great things being said about ripple amidst all the hype. And suddenly after this dump, we read only bad things about it. Especially the lawsuit against ripple has been around for quite some time, then why highlight now ? Almost all big companies face some kind of lawsuit and I am sure a solution to this will be reached eventually. As long as Ripple as a company exists, ripple tech and XRP has a great future. Centralized/Decentralized does not matter because ripple has a strong practical use case and the company has been working with banks and financial institutions very actively.
I have been reading on many social networks that XRP price would bottom somewhere around 1.5$. Well... looks like it's a self-fulfilling prophecy. But be very sure that it will very soon correct back to 2$. Usually March is the month that sees lot of bullish activity and I expect that to happen coupled with some important announcements.
And yes, XRP will get listed on coinbase. Price target 4$ - 6$. By 2018 end, if banks launch payments on xRapid, then 10$ is possible. I will sell my ripple then :)
Other coins to watch out are Stellar (XLM) and Tron (TRX). Both have some interesting partnerships coming up.
