Should you invest in XLM?
Ripple (XRP) is among the dominant cryptocurrencies in the market. However, the Stellar Lumens (XLM coin) branch is still unknown to many people even though it is a branch of Ripple.
Jed McCaleb is the co-founder of both the Ripple and Stellar projects. For a long time, Stellar was considered a branch of Ripple that officially split to form an independent system since 2014. Ripple's system tends to be closed, while Stellar aims to become an open platform.
Exponential growth since 2014.
During the turmoil since 2014, Stellar's growth has been calculated exponentially. This shows a strong growth rate because of the value of XLM.

The launch of the Stellar platform can completely solve the above problems. Stellar only takes a few seconds to process a transaction, the cost for each transaction is extremely cheap, perfectly meeting the needs of individual and corporate customers.
