Ripple is the catchall name for the cryptocurrency platform, the transactional protocol for which is actually XRP, in the same fashion as Ethereum is the name for the platform that facilitates trades in Ether. Like other cryptocurrencies, Ripple is built atop the idea of a distributed ledger network which requires various parties to participate in validating transactions, rather than any singular centralized authority. That facilitates transactions all over the world, and transfer fees are far cheaper than the likes of bitcoin. Unlike other cryptocurrencies, XRP transfers are effectively immediate, requiring no typical confirmation time.  Ripple was originally founded by a single company, Ripple Labs, and continues to be backed by it, rather than the larger network of developers that continue bitcoin’s development. It also doesn’t have a fluctuating amount of its currency in existence. Where bitcoin has a continually growing pool with an eventual maximum, and Ethereum theoretically has no limit, Ripple was created with all of its 100 billion XRP tokens right out of the gate. That number is maintained with no mining and most of the tokens are owned and held by Ripple Labs itself — around 60 billion at the latest count.  Even at the recently reduced value of around half a dollar per XRP, that means Ripple Labs is currently sitting on around $20 billion worth of the cryptocurrency (note: Ripple’s price crashed hard recently, and may be worth far less than $60 billion by time you read this). It holds 55 billion XRP in an escrow account, which allows it to sell up to a billion per month if it so chooses in order to fund new projects and acquisitions. Selling such an amount would likely have a drastic effect on the cryptocurrency’s value, and isn’t something Ripple Labs plans to do anytime soon.  In actuality, Ripple Labs is looking to leverage the technology behind XRP to allow for faster banking transactions around the world. While Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are built on the idea of separating financial transactions from the financial organizations of traditional currencies, Ripple is almost the opposite in every sense.  XRP by Ripple price can be found on this page alongside the market capitalization and additional stats.

Ripple

XRP is trending following a significant flash crash, leaving the community debating the causes and potential recovery. Some traders suspect market manipulation and highlight exchanges' order rejections during the dip, while others point to external factors like tariff concerns. Despite the volatility, many XRP holders express long-term confidence and view the dip as a buying opportunity.

Bitcoin is the first successful internet money based on peer-to-peer technology; whereby no central bank or authority is involved in the transaction and production of the Bitcoin currency. It was created by an anonymous individual/group under the name, Satoshi Nakamoto. The source code is available publicly as an open source project, anybody can look at it and be part of the developmental process.  Bitcoin is changing the way we see money as we speak. The idea was to produce a means of exchange, independent of any central authority, that could be transferred electronically in a secure, verifiable and immutable way. It is a decentralized peer-to-peer internet currency making mobile payment easy, very low transaction fees, protects your identity, and it works anywhere all the time with no central authority and banks.  Bitcoin is designed to have only 21 million BTC ever created, thus making it a deflationary currency. Bitcoin uses the SHA-256 hashing algorithm with an average transaction confirmation time of 10 minutes. Miners today are mining Bitcoin using ASIC chip dedicated to only mining Bitcoin, and the hash rate has shot up to peta hashes.  Being the first successful online cryptography currency, Bitcoin has inspired other alternative currencies such as Litecoin, Peercoin, Primecoin, and so on.  The cryptocurrency then took off with the innovation of the turing-complete smart contract by Ethereum which led to the development of other amazing projects such as EOS, Tron, and even crypto-collectibles such as CryptoKitties.

Bitcoin

Bitcoin is experiencing volatility, driven by concerns around potential tariffs and broader market uncertainty, sparking debates about its role as a safe haven. The community is actively discussing the extent of market manipulation, with some participants pointing to a massive liquidation event and its impact on leveraged positions. Despite the turbulence, some investors are viewing the dip as a buying opportunity, while others remain skeptical about Bitcoin's long-term viability.

Ethereum is a global, open-source platform for decentralized applications. In other words, the vision is to create a world computer that anyone can build applications in a decentralized manner; while all states and data are distributed and publicly accessible. Ethereum supports smart contracts in which developers can write code in order to program digital value. Examples of decentralized apps (dapps) that are built on Ethereum includes tokens, non-fungible tokens, decentralized finance apps, lending protocol, decentralized exchanges, and much more.  On Ethereum, all transactions and smart contract executions require a small fee to be paid. This fee is called Gas. In technical terms, Gas refers to the unit of measure on the amount of computational effort required to execute an operation or a smart contract. The more complex the execution operation is, the more gas is required to fulfill that operation. Gas fees are paid entirely in Ether (ETH), which is the native coin of the blockchain. The price of gas can fluctuate from time to time depending on the network demand.

Ethereum is trending due to a significant market dip, sparking debates about market manipulation and potential recovery strategies.

$PYPL I love when someone puts random numbers and letters on a chart and draws lines and thinks that gives investors confidence in a dog like Paypal. These “charters” has been peddling the same bullshit for 3 years now as the stock crumbles

@TradeTherapyLLC interesting idea!  Cool stuff!  Really appreciate your insight and creativity.  So...strictly post GFC chart career?

@Atlanson Thanks! Post GFC is when it got real. That’s when study became the main focus. Been a student of the markets/legendary traders and their theories ever since

@TradeTherapyLLC look back farther.  00-03, 70s, there are great insights to be had IMHO no situation is ever like the past but I feel like the old charts help us define possible risk parameters.  My own humble view on something like PYPL is, yeah maybe a few bucks but likely an 01/02 style bear market rally?  Like China just did over the last year

@Atlanson Yes. There&#39;s an all time DXY chart in the free article. Institutions have accumulated a massive position in PYPL and across the most of the growth sector. They don&#39;t do that heading into bear markets. That&#39;s when the news is good and they&#39;re selling to the retail investment community. That&#39;s not the market we&#39;re in today. The news is terrible. It always is at the bottom because they&#39;re accumulating. They need retail investors to sell to them at the bottom. How is Wall St. going to convince people to buy their massive holdings if the news is bad and we&#39;re heading into a bear market? Something to ponder. Enjoy the free read!

@TradeTherapyLLC @Atlanson Great conversation!  Interesting, I was in IT for 22 years and executive for last six. Did you see this chart made it into Chart Art email? Good stuff!
