    Stripe (who back Stellar) will remove support for Bitcoin payments. hence the price increase today.

    I posted an article from Stripe on that in the alt coin thread yesterday. Interesting read.

    XLM just overtaken Litecoin to go to #6 on cmc.

    Is it a case of either or for Ripple and XLM or can they both co-exist ?

    This is something I would be interested if anyone could weigh in on, whichever project you really look at they are all saying they will be better than the competitors, so its hard to find an unbiased opinion.

    I keep a (relatively) small investment in both! Hoping the gains of one will offset any losses from the other.

    Xlm and ripple are both able to exist along side each other.
    Money will pour into both in the coming years.
    Visa have a blockchain which will compete with both. There's plenty of competition.
    Ask yourself would you use xlm yourself? I would.

    Why would people think they can't both work at the same time? They are similar but have their own working differences and long terms goals.

    Think of all the different banks that exist worldwide. All the different methods there are to currently transfer money around the globe and the people and institutes who would want to transfer money.

    Ripple is more aimed at the banking sector and Stellar is aiming for companies and public adoption.

    There are also the differences between being centralized and decentralized and for profit (ripple currently hold 60% of all RPX in existence) while Stellar are non profit and their excess supply of XLM are controlled by the Stellar Development Foundation which has no stock or profits passed out to individual investors.

    There is absolutely no onus on any financial institute to use XRP as part of an implementation of Ripple xCurrent technology. In fact I’m genuinely struggling to see why they would do so, unless they needed access to some sort of ‘digital liquidity’ bound to FIAT. Even then they’d just launch their own version private ledger version of the coin to support such a transfer. The coin is being mixed up with the ripple block chain implementation

    Yea, I've noticed XLM always seemed to ride on the coat tails of XRP (up and down together) but recent weeks not so much which is good news for XLM and investors see it on its own merits.

    There's a 15BTC buy order sitting on Bittrex at 5123Sat's. That's gonna keep things afloat nicely for a while!

    Edit: And just as I say that it got pulled, as did an 8BTC buy order at 5090 Sats.

    Don't think so, I've always used SEPA going into Kraken. Credit cards are a very expensive way of buying crypto.

    It wasn't heavy on the technical side but there was some very interesting info. SDEX and Lightning being the two biggest pieces of news.

    I like how the operate, no fan fair, no hype. Just getting on with the work in the background. 37 partnerships signed up in 2017, that's pretty amazing too. A LOT to come from this company in 2018.

    It's been dipping there now since Saturday. I bought more there, but if they keep going down, as they're my main coin, i'll have to do some thinking about what to do next...

    I usually keep a bit of ETH on Binance for such dips, but I used it all up on that buy-in this morning.
