About Ripple (XRP)

Ripple is a real-time currency exchange and remittance network created by Ripple Labs Inc and XRP is the token used for representing the transfer of value across the Ripple Network. Ripple coin price has seen unprecedented growth in the last year with a whopping 700% price rise. More and more payment providers are being onboarded based on its consensus mechanism. This does not, however, make it blockchain. Ripple uses HashTree, which is a persistent data structure, to summarize data compared across a network of validating servers to establish this 'consensus'. The key point to remember is that these servers can belong to anyone, from an individual to the banks themselves. Ripple uses this “distributed consensus ledger” in lieu of blockchain technology.

Ripple cryptocurrency hasn't, of yet, faced an issue in 30 million recorded transactions itself is testament to the stability of its platform. The Ripple currency or digital asset, XRP, was the unintentional superstar in the light of BitCoin, with only 100 billion tokens to ever be issued. The company has come out and stated that only this issued 100 billion would ever be in circulation. The use of XRP isn't tied to the Ripple network, in a manner of speaking; banks and payment providers don't actually need the Ripple coin to transfer currency. Instead, they use Ripple to move money, regardless of the currency itself. The crux lies in the network itself and its ability to move money.

Notwithstanding, XRP has its purpose in tackling the problem of liquidity issues. Payment providers stand to gain in terms of their role as a medium of money transfer. As of 2018, all products released include xRapid, xCurrent and xVia which improves XRP's position in the blockchain network.
