Ripple price update: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple, Bitcoin Cash, EOS,

RIPPLE’S CEO Brad Garlinghouse has claimed over time people will gain a better understanding of the cryptocurrency he promotes because they are not “anti-government”.

Ripple has been developing a network for faster global financial payments and has been keen to work with the help of banks.

Speaking to CNBC, the Ripple CEO claimed soon people would gather a better understanding of the uses of cryptocurrencies, allowing Ripple to break away from the trends of other coins, like Bitcoin.

CNBC’s Jon Fortt asked: “A lot of people when they think of cryptocurrencies they think of Bitcoin.

“You have taken arguably a different tactic on that you are trying to be useful and practical, is the line you are saying.

Unfortunately for crypto traders, the rebound in crypto markets was only short-lived and many coins have started to give back some of their gains.

This has led to the entire value of the cryptocurrency market falling 2.5% since this time yesterday to US$321.1 billion according to Coin Market Cap.
