XRP is the third largest digital asset in the virtual currency market. However, it has a large community that is very active on Twitter and social media. They are usually talking about the latest developments in the network and what Ripple does to improve its services.
Bitcoin is the largest digital currency in the market, thus it should have had more votes than just 12%. And Ethereum, that is the second largest blockchain network and digital asset received 4% of the votes. Clearly, this shows that Twitter has a large number of XRP supporters that is very active and engages with crypto-related content.
Ripple works helping financial institutions and companies to perform cross-border payments in a fast and reliable way. The main goal is to reduce transaction times and also the costs related to these kinds of transactions.
Bitcoin could also be used to perform cross-border transactions, but the fees paid by users are larger than using the Ripple Network. Now, Bitcoin is the largest digital asset, followed by Ethereum and in the third position XRP.
They have a market capitalization of $69 billion, $14 billion and $13 billion, respectively.
