With Bitcoin use cases aside from being a store of value are actually quite limited. Transaction fees are high.
Ripple on the other hand was specifically designed to make international banking transfers more efficient. With the banking clients that are already using it, they've accomplished something no other crypto has done yet. Mainstream acceptance. Ripple is disruptive to SWIFT and the traditional international transfer model.
For this reason I believe, people are interested in buying Ripple.
My main concern is that Ripple has approx 50Bln XRP locked up to be release increasing the supply at a steady 1Bln XRP per month. I think this increased supply will negatively affect the price of Ripple. What are your thoughts?

I never understood why any individual would buy Ripple, it's for banks to international transfers, not for us to buy coffee....
