Kalarie 610 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 3 hours ago, Skag said: As the title says, it was already low and now I see a trend of going even lower. Any specific reasons? It's just in a sideways pattern right now. Typical stuff. We could do this sideways thing until Oct-Dec (my bet), or for the next 3 years. Just remember, if XRP is oscillating with the entire crypto market, then the kinds of investors that'll make it moon haven't taken it seriously yet. Good news, you haven't missed the rocket, you may just have to wait a few years. Link to post Share on other sites

nomad_z 845 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Going to go out on a limb here, but I think the bottom has been found on this particular dip for now, but hey, things can change in an hour or a day. XRP - $0.68 BTC - $8100 ETH - $600 Why have I mentioned 3 coins, well, I see these three riding the same ride. XRP and ETH just follow BTC for the moment, until something can jolt it like December 2017. Link to post Share on other sites

Lesson learnt, never go out on a limb in the CryptoSphere, where the only certainty is uncertainty... Cesar1810 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure if you try to give the impression that you are pro XRP and then come out with some negativity and what seems like FUD. This is not an accusation, but my opinion and and I could be completely wrong. If you think I'm one of those people who doesn't like to hear bad news and covers my ears so that I can live in ignorant bliss, I'm not. If you search my posts and read the one I posted on another conversation, you'll see. With regards to your point about exiting, somehow I don't think so and I'll tell you why: 1. Looking at the trades on Bitstamp, I'm noticing a lot of small trades, i.e. 6-15 XRP trying to drive the price down. It only takes one trade to lower the price and it doesn't matter if it's 1 XRP or 50,000 XRP. It seems to me that the synchronised bots between BTC, ETH and XRP are trying to push lower with these low value trades to see how far it can go down. 2. If people were exiting and running for the doors, I would expect to see a spike in volume, but there isn't any. Any way, those who ran for the doors left the building a long while back in January and February. 3. Look how shallow the market depth is for the sell side for XRP/USD on Bitstamp - doesn't look like a stampede to sell, exactly the opposite. Any way, hope I'm wrong about you... People are just exiting not running for the doors. The problem is there is no buying pressure because the market is currently trash and doesnt show any sign of not being trash. No volume low volume selling and no buying. 7-9 billion in daily crypto volume........not good!! Link to post Share on other sites

If you look back at the market 6 months ago, where we are now is bloody good, compared to your traditional stocks and shares market. Let's say that we hadn't gone through the epic rise in December and January and that the market had gradually gone up, then on that basis, we've done bloody well. Compare where we are now to where we were this time last year. I think that there is a lot of impatience and greed out in the cryptosphere and is due to those who do not have investment experience in other areas and think what happens here is the norm. Most people need to wake up and realise what reality is. I'm including a graph with market volume on it and if you ask me, I think it's ok, especially if you compare it to 6 months and 1 year ago. We've come a long way in a year and I'm happy with that. damascus1986, xrphilosophy, aavkk and 7 others 10 Link to post Share on other sites

xrphilosophy 2,079 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 (edited) Ditto. This market is evolving well no question. The fact that some may not be equipped to deal with the ups and downs positionally, nor emotionally (and that is understood and emphasized with) has no bearing on the state of the market. The market is new, it's building, and it's not for the faint of heart. Holding with confidence...(and loving all the XRP progression the past few months!). Hang in there!

We've come a long way in a year and I'm happy with that. That is a misleading graph though isn't it? That was rhetorical btw! See that huge spike after the crash? Remember when XRP jumped to 1.20, ETH hit 1k almost, and all seemed well again. We aren't seeing that and won't see that this time. I want to add that the altcoin market is very weak! Last time XRP hit .65 bitcoin was 6900 there is no money in the market creating a bounce. Look at the volume you would think at these prices people would be buying! I still think, like you, that in 6 months there will be a increase in price, but I'm watching the volume closely. If it keeps dwindling and decreasing I will change my opinion the mania is what drove this market. Once people are no longer interested it dies WHY? Because real people in finance think it is overvalued in a huge way! I still believe bar any insane international regulation that XRP will see $3-$5 this year, but as the volume doesn't increase and the weeks turn into months my confidence wanes.

Banks and other FI's are afraid to get a pile of XRP because of the volatility risk involved. So the use case of xRapid will get more difficult to realize because all those trillions won't flow in. But it does not mean that the nostro/vostro accounts can't be cleared. Banks will have an amazing amount of capital back in their own hands again to spend and invest. Because the transition from FIAT>XRP>FIAT takes under 10 seconds, there is almost no risk involved. If a bank ONLY invests 3-5% of their nostro-vostro holdings into a pile of XRP to be independent from the liquidity risk with using an exchange, they will... When this 3-5% amount increases in value exponentially AND solves a big settlement problem, there is nothing holding banks back from putting more money in the system. nomad_z and WuWei 2 Link to post Share on other sites
