What MoneyGram CEO says about Ripple?

The current position of the Ripple cryptocurrency in terms of price value is not very satisfactory. Community users of the foundation are expecting that the adoption of the coin over a wide range can ignite the price value upward. The CEO of MoneyGram passed over mixed comments about the Ripple in his recent interview on CNN.

On the one hand, he said that Ripple would transform the payment system as it has potential in it. But on the other hand, he said that only 10% of transactions are done between Mexico and the US through the ODL of Ripple. It would take a long time for XRP to be as fully operational. It means that Ripple has a long distance to cover for its adoption as the global payment currency.

XRP Price

Currently, the price is hovering at $0.18 with a -8.60% change in the past 24-hours. The XRP coin is not just down but the whole market is down today. The senior analyst, Mati Greenspan said:

The entire crypto market seems to be in a bit of a slump at the moment. The losses in XRP are more likely a reflection of that than anything else at this time.

Another crypto expert, Jacob Canfield, speculates about the future value that it may drop to even $0.10.
