Major Headlines

Ripple CEO says BTC influence will end soon

CNBC’s “Power Launch” interviewed the CEO of Ripple, Brad Garlinghouse. The show focuses on breaking news, “up-to-the-instant” stock updates and all important information regarding the economy, the markets, real estate, media and technology. The topic was BTC vs. XRP, and their relationship to the cryptocurrency market as a whole. Traditionally, all altcoins have basically followed BTC. This is because the primary entry to purchasing any other coin had always been BTC. However, this is beginning to change, and the technology is developing a huge new scope. Companies like Consensys are focused on building platforms on the Ethereum platform. ETH can be purchased directly with fiat in most countries. XRP has been performing very poorly this year.
