Is Stellar (XLM) A Safer Bet Than Ripple (XRP)?

Stellar Lumens (XLM) is a direct competitor of Ripple (XRP) in the cross borders payments and remittances industry. The basic difference between the two is that Stellar Lumens (XLM) is peer to peer dealing as if you would buy Bitcoin on a website like Localbitcoins or Paxful. Ripple (XLM) on the other hand is like buying Bitcoin on Coinbase. An interesting debate on this subject is one regarding how people grew tired of too much control and centralization and welcomed cryptocurrencies with open arms as an alternative mode of payment, exchange of information and a lot more. Critics argue that Ripple (XRP) could meet the same fate at some point when people do not want to have anything to do with banks or financial institutions at all and instead turn to peer to peer dealing without the need for middlemen. In fact, such an economic model coupled with a decentralized system that verifies transactions and user identities by itself instead of a third party is the need of the hour according to most crypto aficionados.
