The recent months have been nothing but disappointment for XRP traders, especially long-term hodlers. While Bitcoin and other altcoins have made a glorious path to new heights, XRP managed to crawl to $0.45 level and got back. Recently, it has even fell below $0.30 - a bad sign for traders. So, what to expect from XRP price next? Let’s check out Twitter users’ XRP price forecasts and their opinions.
When innovations are hopeless
A lot of traders have been waiting for new technological advanced introduced by Ripple labs - it would make XRP price people thought. However, surprisingly, XRP did not grow - it went the opposite direction. This is what makes Twitter user say ‘RIP Ripple’.
Take a look at their predictions and moods:

XRP is dead. Ripple is too.

Dreamers stay dreamers
However, some users continue claiming that Ripple is able of reaching new heights. Here’s what some of them think:
XRP will be the only coin will have huge price increases than any others , guys it will go beyond your predictions , have faith and buy more . More decreases in price now is literally an opportunity to buy more , because it’s sure thing that you will see big returns:)

But what if Ripple is NOT supposed to be expensive? Take a look at this opinion:
So with this being said, I’ve got a question. Call me stupid for asking this but if Ripple is solving cross border payments with XRP. Doesn’t XRP’s price need to stay low in order for this to work and keep working? It’s inexpensive, isn’t that why it’s being used and saving https://t.co/b1EDsXOWs1

Indeed, XRP seems to stand aside from the scope of all other altcoins. It simply doesn’t follow the path of Bitcoin or any other digital currency. Market uptrend? Ripple hardly reacts. Technological advanced? XRP market does not depend on it either. Thus, making predictions often proves to be useless.
Everybody is talking About SBI VC go-live and that it is a Big thing. Let me tell you. It wont make a difference to the $XRP price

SBI VC is already live with OTC. Just adding an Exchange orderbook wont do much, Sorry https://t.co/KjDcSmLsgQ
Hold or buy more
Since no one knows for sure what will happen with Ripple (XRP) price, you can continue holding it and buy some XRP while the cost is tasty.
#XRP ~ Just purchased a huge bag to almost triple my holdings and just about 1/2 my avg purchase price ?

Price was way too irresistible ?
I apologise in advance for the inevitable dip that will follow ?#BuyTime $XRP #XRP #Accumulate#XRPtheDiamondStandard #0doubt pic.twitter.com/jyalo6h1Wz
Moreover, XRP can dump a little bit more:
#Ripple's XRP price technical forecast: A breakdown seems imminent
— Tron Weekly Journal (@TronWeekly) July 13, 2019
Bears are likely to dominate at that supply zone and continue to push the price down towards the demand zone at $0.30, 0.27 and $0.24https://t.co/w5bJ8HFQLo
#XRPUSD #xrparmy #ripplenews
Thus, buying at $0.24 would be even a better idea. With the major downtrend on the crypto market, this might be possible.
Conclusion
Ripple’s XRP is too far from $0.50. Moreover, it might even drop below $0.30 again. That means you should either hold XRP for a few months (or years) more, or speculate on shorts – the second option is better for experienced traders.
