No idea, the site was demo'ed at today's ripple meetup, that's how I found out about it going live, presumably it's gonna make it "easy" to buy / sell XRPs (as opposed to doing it the hard way by creating a gateway account and withdrawing IOUs into Ripple to trade inside ripple directly).

Stay away until proven otherwise Title: Re: First site to purchase XRPs (probably similar to Coinbase) goes live Post by: hahdouken on April 14, 2013, 10:12:11 PM On their site, they ask you to register and agree to their terms of service, even though there's not a link anywhere to their terms of service!
That seems sketchy. Title: Re: First site to purchase XRPs (probably similar to Coinbase) goes live Post by: mobydick on April 16, 2013, 11:22:37 PM UPDATE: They refunded my bitcoin and I've had four transactions go through just fine.

Title: Re: First site to purchase XRPs (probably similar to Coinbase) goes live Post by: alexkravets on April 16, 2013, 11:42:41 PM For people in this forum that site is probably a waste of time, just trade inside ripple.com/client itself or do private transactions with bitstmap.net
xrptrader is for the ignorant masses who'll flock to Ripple eventually, think of it as a tax on people who can't figure out how to run regular ripple.com client and how to grant trust to a gateway. Title: Re: First site to purchase XRPs (probably similar to Coinbase) goes live Post by: tclo on April 16, 2013, 11:55:39 PM That site looks horrible. Here is what it says:
To buy XRP, please send bitcoins to the following address: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX You Send At Least You Get 0.6 BTC 3000 XRP 1.65 BTC 10000 XRP 4.95 BTC 30000 XRP I am paying 1 BTC for 39000 XRP: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=176060.0 so this guy is basically paying like 600% less than me. Something like that. His rates are just a joke. Title: Re: First site to purchase XRPs (probably similar to Coinbase) goes live Post by: alexkravets on April 16, 2013, 11:57:54 PM Yes, it's a joke, but hopefully the joke won't be on anybody with half a brain, the sheeple will of course go to the slaughter as usual :-)
