I've come to terms to the reasoning of market cap just being an explanatory figure made by a website who wanted an understandable way to represent the value of a cryptocurrency. Ergo, this is not an actual amount or pool of money poured into some coin somewhere.

There is a demand? People who own then raises the price. Market cap is mostly irrelevant. This isn't the stock market. We don't have any assets, or bonds, or futures, or whatever the fuck it's used.

I came to this reasoning since this token, which I predicted to be around $0.78 by september, just reached and surpassed that in a matter of three days. I thought "how can the market cap grow so much?"... How can this surpass $2 this year? Well... It could be $10 by march.

You see, this market cap thing is irrelevant. If there is demand, there will be more people wanting it. That explains Ripple's grow. That also explain why BTC is coming down. Demand is everything.

Grats you learned the difference between investing in something like a stock and speculating on a speculative commodity.

Think of Market Cap as the possibility of that market to generate money, if everyone cashed out. Obviously that's not possible, so you can extrapolate a percentage of it.

If more people cash out, the lesser chances are that it keeps growing more and more as people will take out that money.

but yeah , mcap is not the money poured into it.

but an higher mcap will have a much harder time to grow cause of the possibility so many have to take money out of it.

Bitcoin's market cap is not the ceiling. Unlike Bitcoin, XRP serves a real-world purpose, and Ripple speaks to an industry that is worth trillions of dollars.

.
In 2018/2019 you will be using it to pay for everything online (pic related), and institutions are starting to jump on board too, this was just announced:


>In a precedent-setting moment, Cuallix became the first worldwide institution to use xRapid — Ripple’s solution that utilizes XRP as a liquidity tool — to reduce the cost of sending cross-border payments from the U.S. to Mexico.

2018 will be about utility and Bitcoin will be dethroned.
