Scam

"Can we visit your offices?

In order to keep costs low, we generally do not invite members of the general public to visit our offices. However, VIP investors are invited to our monthly office cocktail parties in Geneva."

I'm not sure what he's getting at, but do not trade any Ripple or any other of your cryptos for it.  Part of Ripple's infrastructure allows you to create a trade medium of anything that you choose, as long as others are willing to accept it.  If I wanted to create and issue myself a trillion SuperFantasticAwesomeCoin, I could.  To understand how this works, check out this forum:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=411459.0

Ripple's concept behind doing so is that it supplies the platform to create any currency of your choosing, as long as there are others willing to accept it as currency.




Yeah I've now read some stuff on ripple forum. It's funny but actually it's as legitimate as any other currency I realize and also the wallet (not the company) is decentralized and internally tradeable. It kind of is already doing what NXT (which I'm a big believer in) is working so hard to do but already does it easily. But it almost seems too easy for the coin to develop and have real value which is interesting at least, that we need blood sweat and tears over complicated POS distributions or agonisingly difficult mining to get what Ripple can do in a few clicks it seems.


Disclaimer: I was a big believer in Ripple last year but got sick to death of the IOU system that regularly brought me to tears so I'm first to hate on it and eventually walked away from it. But you got to admit it is interesting at the ease of this coins production.




Any issuer in Ripple can create more IOUs.  There is no code ensuring only 21 million big coins.  An IOU is only as good as its issuer.

I actually like Ripple's social credit system.

yeah. one can actually do something positive from it. it's empowering its community really.

ripple forums usually have a 'start my wallet threads' in the newbie section.

decades from now could be the age of crypto. whatever may that be, it could be bitcoin or something else. but definitely all this would not be happening without bitcoin.

the bitcoin philosophy is slowly fading when asics and btc mining companies came in the picture.

^ really? that's a pretty good idea. i wonder why the bitcoiners didn't set up options trading for bitcoin.
16295  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin and The Crashing Game on: February 18, 2014, 01:39:55 PM
There will always be some sort of manipulation in any trading market. It's just the way it is. Especially when there's greed involved?  People will always try to find an edge.

Junk philosophy.  The amount of power a computer would need to calculate every single human thought and action in a simulation, let alone the trajectories and properties of every object and atom in the universe, is incomprehensible.

Maybe god has a really fast computer?

I think we can rule out god on this topic kluge and mike please carry on the discussion it very interesting.

yup. please continue the discussion please. Smiley
