So i remember a few years back when BitCoin was being discussed and the whole concept about it seemed cool and I had thought about investing a little bit into it. Well it was kinda over hyped with talks about "it to replace currency" and etc so with that I didnt really invest but kick my self now that I hadn't. 

Now im looking at this new thing Ripple. Ive done some looking into. The concept of working with banks world wide to send cross boarder currency insanely quick and how etc is cool and knowimg that a few big banks have started backing this really peeked my interest while i was researching last night it was at 2.27 and now at 2.97 (high 3.--)

So i wanna invest into it like $200-500

Is this a good idea? Has anyone already invested? How should i go avout it and whats the best thing to use to invest?

I have no exsperience in stocks or anything like this.

Also... so Xrp and Ripple or two different things from what i understand... so which do I invest in?

bitcoin is a bit dangerous to invest in but try it out and hope you get in succes

Just invested in this the other day when my friends starting raving about it. Ripple is gonna be big. Gonna buy more while I can.
