These bits of speculative news has driven the price of Ripple to soar from .20 a few weeks ago to $3.11 (as of writing this). It has far surpassed Ethereum in the #2 spot and at this rate, it could take the #1 spot if the rumors are true of Coinbase.
These rumors are causing a frenzy of people rushing to buy Ripple before there is the expected announcement on the 20th of this month.
