You're absolutely right about the marketing.
   We've seen an influx of "noobs" recently, and they tend to look for the
   "next Bitcoin"... IE something cheap currently, which can shoot up 10x
   100x etc. Ripple will leave em bloody.

   I can't stand the coin, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't use it for
   a quick 5x recently.

   No shortage of sheep in this market, and so few people aware that bots
   are already doing their bot shit here, just like other markets.

             yep. I should have said a successful attack at the
     'marketing'
             level.
             One could argue the "crypto market" has decided that ripple
     is
             oh so amazing, and "the market" is always right. Or, more
             realistically, the market is manipulated and 'traders'
     behave
             like sheep...
