They didn’t say they weren’t adding ripple. They said they have made no decision to add additional cryptos as of the day of the statement...
“As of the date of this statement, we have made no decision to add additional assets to either GDAX or Coinbase. Any statement to the contrary is untrue and not authorized by the company.”
But what company in their right mind would want to miss out on all the extra revenue that would come along with adding ripple?
They said at this time. They can't add it. The demand would crash their system. These 100s of million of people trying to get validated is not to buy bitcoin etherum litecoin or bitcoin cash. They want xrp. Coinbase to busy front loading it. Haha
