Title: Beware of ripple and people talking it up Post by: yocko06 on May 21, 2013, 01:21:10 AM I have just been at bitcoin conference in san Jose ca, this was a great thing for bitcoin. One thing I noticed while at the conference is there where heaps of ripple employees/promoters their pretending to be bitcoin users and supporters. They where very sneaky and have also disguised themselves on this forum as bitcoin users by building up lots of posts. Have have seen ripple for what it is now. ripple is a group of people trying to fool people into using their system and their own crypto currency to get rich and hold a monopoly on the market.
ripple is not decentralized. ripple is polluting bitcoin. they do not like bitcoin and this can be seen easily when speaking to them face to face. don't be fooled by clever marketing. Ripple should only ever be discussed in alternate crypto section.

Ripple should only ever be discussed in alternate crypto section. Isn't Ripple a virtual currency created by a for-profit, USA based private corporation that uses a centralized approach? If so, it is the complete antithesis of Bitcoin. Title: Re: Beware of ripple and people talking it up Post by: Matthew N. Wright on May 21, 2013, 01:36:52 AM Thank you TradeFortress/Yocko06. Before you're banned, can I ask that you look into who actually is behind Ripple? Did you know that it's the same people who were behind MtGox and some of the most knowledgeable people on the forums when it comes to Bitcoin?
We all appreciate trying to stand up for the rest of us here, but we all have legs of our own. Cheers.

To me, any way of sending value internationally more cheaply and quickly than with the current banking system deserves a look in. |
