Ripple moved Ethereum to third place in the ranking of cryptocurrencies with the largest capitalization and moved to second. The coin has surged more than 100% this month as investors believe banks and service providers will soon default to it when making cross-border payments.
This opportunity will be provided to users thanks to the development of Stefan Thomas, a former employee of Ripple Labs. His company has already launched a beta version of a browser extension called Coil, with which people can “tip” directly in XRP tokens. Although the concept is borrowed from Changetip, a now-defunct Bitcoin app, Coil positions itself as a way for the internet to exist without relying on advertising.
Ripple (XRP) has already started the altcoin rally. This is unexpected given the change in sentiment in the crypto market. The Ripple (XRP) team has clearly decided to show off everything they can do. News of partnerships with more financial institutions has sent the price to the top of its bullish horns over the past few days.
Ripple's product, which will use the XRP cryptocurrency to enable cross-border payments between financial institutions, is finally ready to launch.

Ripple and R3 have reached a settlement on all outstanding litigation related to the transfer of tokens, which were valued at $19 billion at the time of the dispute. In a brief statement released Monday, Ripple announced the settlement without disclosing details.
