The Crypto community received an awakening call at the start of today when XRP passed Ethereum [ETH] to guarantee the second position based on market capitalization.

At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $ 0.46 with a market capitalization of $ 18. 7 billion. The cryptocurrency has increased by 2% in the last 24 hours. The highest volume of XRP is emerging from a community-based exchange platform called ZB Global, followed by Bitbank.

Along with other cryptocurrencies, XRP also showed the downward correction in the last two days. The XRP was trading at $ 0.517 before the bear market began and reached $ 0.43 in less than 24 hours. However, the price started to gain momentum and reached the current point.

The XRP community continues to express its positive reviews on the growth of cryptocurrency on various platforms.

An XRP supporter named BG Iradji says:

"Remember when Google was 1/5 of Yahoo's market capitalization? I want it, remember when Apple was 1/5 of Nokia's market capitalization? XRP was 1/5 of BTC's market capitalization? I want it. And today!"

XRP Research Center tweeted:

"So, ETH has 400 markets listed on the CMC, while #XRP it has only 255 to date. Despite #XRP has markets listed at -36% compared to ETH, today it has achieved a greater market capitalization than ETH, despite the latter being more "mainstream and accessible". "

Alex Cobb, an XRP investor, says:

"One thing I'm just starting to consider, I initially thought the decoupling would happen from BTC and stay flat and XRP going up, but in reality it seems possible that we could decouple and see XRP like # 1 of XRP stay stable and fall into BTC The war with BTC is warming up "
