Thanks for the post about Ripple. It is a project that I am very interested in. I have a background in economics, banking and financial literacy and right now this technology makes the most sense to me of any of the coins. I use to process wire transfers for customers and it could take days sometimes because of all of the intermediaries that were involved. Not to mention being expensive.

Market cap in the crypto space cannot be measured as in the same way it is used in the stock markets. This is something that annoys me so much when people go on and on about market cap. Check out the diamond market for example and try to use that argument based on the supply of diamonds. This is not to say that the value of each token can infinitely go up, but we can definitely say that there are no other coins that have such adoption as this one right now.
