XRP was 100% premined. How many percentage are still held be owners?

My bet would be that the tiny float is multiplying the value. Because of that market cap of XRP is artificially inflated.

XRP network is not really a cryptocurrency, if you ask me. It is not trustless, has counterparty risk, is censorable, not designed to be a commodity in itself, etc.

I was actually playing with Ripple before Bitcoin existed, and it was centralized website. I could see it having some application, but it is just no the same game as Bitcoin and other altcoins.

Jed McCaleb has been selling tens of thousands of ripples a day for years. Anyone investing in buying is just making Jed richer.

Bingo. I think the delusion will persist if Coinbase lists it which is and has been the current rumor in the trader circles I frequent. I'd lose a bit of respect for CB if they did but it will certainly make them a lot of money because $2.00 is so cheap!
