>“The United States and the U.K. market are next,” Coinsquare Chief Executive Officer Cole Diamond said in an interview Tuesday, adding he expects to be operating in those markets in the second quarter. “We believe that we will be a strong competitor to Coinbase and other exchanges in the U.S. by the end of the year.”

"The Toronto-based crypto exchange also plans to offer Ripple, one of 2017’s best-performing cryptocurrencies, starting in February..."
inb4 "hurr durr it doesn't meet the guidelines" that they explicitly state they are free to ignore.
XRP has billions of dollars in volume every day. If Coinbase doesn't add XRP before Coinsquare enters the US market in Q2 they will lose substantial market share and eventually be overtaken. Unless Coinbase is run by literal retards they are not going let their competition one up them.
This is Business 101. You will see Ripple on Coinbase in the next 2 months. Mark my words.
