Ist darauf coinmining erlaubt (aka. durchgehend 100% CPU)? Wie sieht es mit BitTorrent (z.B. die bootstrap.dat Datei hosten) aus?

I am not too sure about trading volume (haven't gotten around to collect enough history on my ripple server yet to do "real" historical analysis), the situation is a bit similar to MtGox who in theory trade a lot of currencies against BTC but in practice most of the action is in very few markets. Also it is very easy to create your own little market on Ripple with bogus values (you could issue yourself BTC and trade back and forth with near 0 fees), so it makes sense to only consider certain markets that fulfill certain criteria (whatever they are).

Bitcoin has similar issues by the way, just take a look at some chinese exchanges with trading volumes several times above the ones at MtGox or Bitstamp...

About the market cap being indeed that high I'm quite sure, as even few trades are enough to see how much people are actually willing to pay for one unit of currency. It might be debateable of course if that is a good measure, in the end however this measurement is what this very page does and advertises.

About the postscriptum: I'd have to check, but if you just do the naive 100 billion / 21 million calculation that would mean that at ~4800 XRP per BTC the cap will have to be higher. Since there are only about half the BTC available so far, this number will be about twice as high, so any rate below 100 billion / actual_amount_of_BTC means XRP have a higher market cap. This was very likely the case last summer.

I recommend taking a look at ledger (ledger-cli.org) and using python to convert whatever csv or other file you have at hand from these exchanges into the format ledger uses.

Könntet ihr eure ideologischen Ergüsse woanders kundtun?!

Im Gegensatz zu Deutschland scheint die Situation hierzulande nämlich immer noch recht unklar, eventuell hat ja jemand schon mal in einen Steuerberater investiert und kann genaueres sagen, was dabei rausgekommen ist?

The 24 hour volume is ridiculous too, currently XRP is used in over 200 individual markets within Ripple...

Anyways, market cap is a defined measure - just look at the recent news about Dropbox, where 5(?)% were bought for 1 billion USD and then the company is "worth" 20 billion USD.

I posted ideas to seperate coins that are stable/deflationary in float and coins that are still inflating before, the only thing that was implemented was the "non-mineable" switch.

You could of course suggest to only consider coins that were moved in the last x years for example to have an idea of only the "active" part of the currency etc. All in all this is not any more a "market cap" however but a different measurement.

Steht doch 2 posts über deinem, dass ich dort bestellt habe?!

I disagree, as compared to Bitcoin where only mined coins can be spent, ALL XRP can be spent any time (the only thing that is preventing this is an implicit promise of RippleLabs). Also the 20 billion XRP that are awarded to the founders are not tracked by this site (if you check the numbers, they add up to 80 billion).

Na dann...

Wieso sollte dann jemand sich die Arbeit machen und das für dich erledigen?! Besoders, das da eh nur eine handvoll Zeilen Shellscript sind.

Keiner ist wohl übertrieben, ich bin mir sicher, dass es Leute gibt die das machen...

Ob es sich allerdings lohnt, musst du eben selber ausrechnen und abwägen.

I'd offer my money (or parts of it) for 8:1 lending if I could define the maximum leverage as a parameter like the lending time frame or rate. I'd charge a premium for that of course.

I probably can still do 4:1 leverage by the way (haven't tried, not that interesting market situation imho atm.) on my account.

edit: And just while I'm ranting, someone took my 0.4% offer!
Also another shoutout to my affiliees (or whatever you'd call people I refered with the link in my sig) - some of you guys have some truly crazy volume! Go for it and I hope you made some phat profits!

Code for that site: https://github.com/ripple/ripple-graph (in case you want to look at how it's done)

Ponzi schemes are quite well defined (paying interest/profit from user deposits) - shouldn't be too hard to identify.

You maybe mean that you are potentially acting fraudulent or negligent towards your users or risk running fractional reserve. This by itself is not a Ponzi scheme.

The contact from this thread wasn't me by the way, sad to hear it worked out that way.

No, I mean that 2.5:1 leverage is not that much more than no leverage at all if you consider that you have to pay swap too, so traders are probably more cautious. the smaller volatility of course also might be a factor.

I mean the hardware upgrades that are supposedly happening/being finished in January behind the scenes.

Tee ist übrigens mittlerweile angekommen und ist genau so wie auf der Webseite beschrieben (hab jetzt keinen Geigerzähler daheim, aber ich glaub das einfach mal... ).

Ein bisschen mehr Geschmacksvielfalt beim grünen Tee wäre trotzdem toll, geschmacklich ist der Bancha ja ganz fein - allerdings war der beste Tee (Teetee... also kein Kräutertee oder so ) den ich bisher hatte ein Oolong aus Li Shan.

Just use their API:

https://ripple.com/wiki/RPC_API#account_info for XRP amounts and https://ripple.com/wiki/RPC_API#account_lines for balances in other currencies.

I'm rather waiting until they finally re-enable 4:1 leverage (or higher... 5:1 or even 8:1 or 10:1 should be possible imho.) - this should increase demand for USD a lot, we're running in low burner mode already for some time now for no apparent (to me) reason other than the infrastructure changes.

Well, it approaches a new low - on average(!) it is close to 0.2%/day. Seems like quite a few larger deposits were simply dumped by lending whales without thought or plan into open offers...

Anyways, it is likely still much faster and (depending on where you are located and how your bank charges are) also cheaper to just buy BTC, transfer them off to a exchange close to you, sell them again there and withdraw your fiat money.

Why do you use their services on your website then (e.g. for fonts)?

It is a bit weird and disappointing to see SO many people not getting the idea of submitting original thoughts and instead supplying the n-th variation of "Bitcoin should be accepted on the Play store/integrated in wallet"...

"Me" in the above quote is JasonBored on Reddit by the way.
