you know, with this whole transaction malleability mess bitcoin is in could hurt it in it's price (its value), and in people's perception of it (its possible future value). this is pretty good timing for jed as he might have something really rad cooking up under all that secrecy. if i were to speculate, it could 'save' bitcoin.
i believe it could be something big.

Considering Ripple is supposed to be the "Regulated" version of Bitcoin (i know its a stretch but those who know Ripple know what I'm getting at), I am amazed at the utter and complete lack of *any* press about it. Its almost as if the people running the show are doing *absolutely nothing* to promote it with the various financial institutions, which completely blows me away. Their price dropped 50% several months ago and it has sat, unchanged at $0.02 ever since. Not a single news article mentioning it. Zero progress. Zero adoption. Zero marketing. Nothing.
-B-
and it seems like ripple labs don't really give a damn about its community. well at least that's how i, and a lot of other people feel. there are well meaning people in the ripple community. it's like they make you feel you're not needed. tho they may not intend to, people feel it nevertheless. as for ' I am amazed at the utter and complete lack of *any* press about it. Its almost as if the people running the show are doing *absolutely nothing* to promote it with the various financial institutions, which completely blows me away. '. i am thinking it would have been better if jed was still around. but who knows... |

The plot thickens indeed.
Disagreements with a "business" usually points to money issues, fundamental issues, or personal issues. Wonder which one it is? Interesting stuff...
disagreements on who to bring on as ceo (or cto, audio is not clear). he starts talking about it at around 7:00 in the video. I hear CEO. But I meant, is his beef with the person being taken on a personal level, fundamental level (the direction and that sort of thing), or does it impact his financial share in everything. I'm still unclear on that. i doubt it's money issues. this is what jed said in the interview: I left in the summer, just June/July,
disagreements with someone brought on to be CEO, and they are kind of...
I don't know; they're lucky, we will see how it goes...
probably a little of both in the fundamental and personal level. jed was probably wanting to take the company one way the other person wanted it to be taken another way. then got personal. i wouldn't be surprised if this person he was referring to was chris larsen. but who was he referring to when he said 'they' and he mentions 'they're lucky'. sounds like jed felt he got screwed over and then it got personal. and that sucks when the people you trusted stab you in the back. but do you think there's still a chance of jed returning, granted that he still has allies in the company? |

don't forget Jed's laptop was the one that got hacked revealing the admin pwd leading to the mtgox plunge to $0.001 over a period of about 15 min back in June 2011.
i tried to scrape up the video of that plunge but no success. i remember being right there when it happened. one of the most dramatic things i've ever seen realtime.
please post if you can find it by chance. thanks. also, i was wondering more on what this secret bitcoin project be. i mean it has to something new, but what?  |

what will happen to bitcoin after he releases his 'new secret bitcoin project'? now this is a good thing.  |

Jed McCaleb, the creator of E-Donkey and the founder of one of the largest Bitcoin exchanges, Mt.Gox, dropped out of Ripple Labs (a company that he is also a co-founder) to 'spend his time looking into new things: man-made surf parks and artificial intelligence'. As was written in an article from Wired: http://www.wired.com/wiredenterprise/2013/09/jed_mccaleb/But a video recently uploaded in YouTube ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQ2DCKLHaQs&t=461) says otherwise. In the video, he mentioned that he left the company due to 'disagreements with someone brought on to be CEO'. So which is it really? Maybe we will hear Jed McCaleb's side of the story in full in the near future. |

realized recently that ch contract holders are doomed from the start.

again, someone know anybody at bitcoin magazine? this needs to be exposed, investigated and put the ones responsible in jail.
|
|
|
|
|
yup. prolly running away now.
|
|
|
|
|
anyone get their rrp yet?
|

Anyone else notice that over the past 2 weeks your share has gone done with each few blocks found. The find per block doesnt go down and the total hasing power is generally around 200 -210 TH so why is my share decreasing?
contract_payment Jan. 7, 2014, 5:30 a.m. 0.005843823
contract_payment Jan. 20, 2014, 4 a.m. 0.005436638
contract_payment Feb. 1, 2014, 10:30 a.m. 0.005345283
So the hashrate is practically the same and the value per block found is but there's clearly a diminishing return- why?
yup. again does anyone know anybody in bitcoin magazine? they are stealing coins from us. |
|
|
|
|
they prolly haven't stole enough coins from their customers yet.
|
|
|
|
no payment for two days again. |
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
