For the wider crypto community, there are only three major coins that everyone looks at; Bitcoin, Ethereum and Ripple’s XRP. Bitcoin is down nearly -75% year-to-date, Ethereum has plunged over -88% YTD and Ripple’s XRP token has lost over -50% of its value this year. Comparatively, it doesn’t take long to figure out that Ripple’s XRP is the strongest among the top three coins. Looking forward, if Goldman Sachs or another similar institution jumps into this industry, Ripple’s team need to make sure that XRP token is on top of their list. Ripple's XRP could become the most dominant token going into 2019 if the company can deliver on the above.
