Ripple is first in line' - CEO reveals next cryptocurrency to catch up with bitcoin

Ripple set to be next cryptocurrency to join Coinsquare exchange

Ripple is the next cryptocurrency believed to break records among virtual wallet holders after bitcoin. Ripple prices have soared in the past month, beating Ethereum in the cryptocurrency competition with bitcoin. Cole Diamond, CEO of Coinsquare, told Business News Network Ripple is the first cryptocurrency they are going to add to their blockchain platform after bitcoin. 

 He said: “We’re going to be adding Ripple, we’re going to be adding Manero, we’re going to be adding other digital currencies that have their own blockchains and never did this ICO, Initial Coin Offering, with the exception of Ethereum."He added: “Ripple is first in line.”The rising cryptocurrency has skyrocketed by more than 1,000 per cent since the start of December 2017, when it was trading at about $0.24. 

 Ripple’s founder Brad Garlinghouse said the company uses blockchain technology to send money across the world in real time settlements.He said: “Ripple sells a blockchain technology to banks and payment providers and other financial institutions to do real-time settlement between banks.“So today if you wanted to send $10,000 to London right now, the fastest way for her to do that is to drive to Newark or JFK and fly it there.“Our view is in a world of the internet when you can stream video from the space station, you should be able to do real-time settlement between banks, we sell the technology to banks to do that.”Ripple’s co-founder and the largest holder of Ripple tokens, Mr Larsen, at one point on Thursday, became richer than Facebook chief executive Mark Zuckerberg with a worth more than $59 billion, according to Forbes. Other Ripple holders would have also zoomed up the list as the value of their cryptocurrency tokens soared more than 100 percent during the week.Ripple’s value surged amid rumours it would start training on CoinBase, an app popular with cryptocurrency traders buying and selling bitcoin, litecoin and ethereum.
