It's not realistic to think Ripple can be a $50 coin for some time to come (unless financial institutions start stampeding into the cryptospace, and big retailers like Amazon start announcing adoption).

Consider that right now, Bitcoin is the market dominance leader at $250 billion. It's easy for me to believe that Ripple could catch up, and even beat Bitcoin in market domninance. So if Ripple were to get to, let's say, $260 billion, that would make it a $3.00 coin, provided that the supply remained consistent.

Ripple is a slow growth, steady coin. I use it as part of my "safe" investment base where I put 50-60% of my total stake (Cardano, Ripple). Then split some (45%) on on medium risk (IOTA, XLM, EOS, VEN), then high risk (XVG, TRX) and the final 5% on sub penny gamble coins that look like they've got promise (I recently got in on EmberCoin, which is soon going to be a GPS coin called Chartis).

No one is going to "get rich quick" on Ripple at this point, but it can serve as a very stable growth coin that will grow steadily as the market grows, and challenge for dominance. Any altcoin porfolio is incomplete without it.
I’m hopeful that many more banks and corporations like amazon realize the benefits XRP provides. I’m all for holding for a few years.

Really hope this coin can get to $100 some day.
