On principle, no true cryptocurrency advocate would support Ripple -- this blockchain uses the power of decentralization under a framework of centralization. It's like locking up a Ferrari in a garage, never to see a race track or an open road.
Advocates should also oppose the big banks, which are owned by Rothschild elites. They also impose disgusting political policies that destroy countries like Sweden, and will soon spread to all of EU/USA.
However, I will also say never understimate the power of the masses and "group think." That's why from a pure financial perspective, Ripple has great long-term potential.
