XRP is one of the best altcoins, technically and partner wise. There is a major misunderstanding, due to disinformation campaigns on the internet. The main misunderstanding about ripple is, that banks don't need to buy ripples to fullfill their transactions. Banks do need to buy ripple to use the ripple system.
Now that we got that out of the way. There is another main reason why i believe ripple has a better chance to be the nummer 1 or 2 coin than ETH. ETH has very slow transactions thus has excaclty the same problem as bitcoin. Ripple does not have this problem! Ripples transactions are nearly instant.
Ripple used to have permanent inflation, only a month ago the supply was locked! There will never be more Ripples. This will cause a major rise soon enough.
Another big reason is that the banks that will use Ripple will grow exponentially. Also ripple is being added to nearly all the major crypto exchanges. Even though the market cap of ripple is high. It can grow much higher, I expect ripple to pass ETH somewhere this year. And mayb even bitcoin the future.
