Ripple has made major improvements in 2018, as it manages to place itself among the top three coins in the crypto space. Even these coins are able to be on top of Ethereum. This is what makes Ripple now increasingly popular. However, Ripple should go down in the fourth position of the CMC for now. With a lower price and if the investment will make a big profit.
I agree if deciding to invest long term in Ripple when compared to Ethereum.
