what are you trying to achieve?

I'm buying Bitstamp IOUs, XRPs for ILS (bank transfer). Official Bank of Israel rate.

We can do BTC (+1% in my favor) trade also but it must be done online because BTC/USD is very volatile.

All details in profile.

And company I work for is sponsor of http://www.realmadrid.com/

I created IOU offer... You can buy my 1 USD for 0.97 Bitstamp IOU. I will redeem it through Paypal on demand.

I've signed up 2 years ago here, so far nobody told that I'm cheater. I use my real name.

I have $1000 at Paypal, I need or XRP or BTC or Bistamp USD IOU or Bitstamp BTC IOU.

Official MTGOX rate/ Paypal commission 50%-50%

You move first. Only. Can do small batches.

Edit: I created IOU offer... You can buy my 1 USD for 0.97 Bitstamp IOU. I will redeem it through Paypal on demand.

Hush down...  

"XRPs are just like stamps and they are only used to pay for transactions."

If some company can think it can monetize it - let it be... But they can fail, there can be other companies who would like to do it for free or smaller amounts of money...

+ don't forget - original ripple idea did not have any XRPs at all

PS. XRP will gain value by being reserve currency until enough people will say "we need alt-Ripple with cheap XRPs"

Exactly... every sentence of it.

All these problems can be solved if people will be able to short someones bonds...

Platform will be based on Ripple network. Main purpose to help borrowers/lenders to issue/invest in bonds by other people.

Everything client-side.

Very nice!

really... what happened? it was a bug in matching engine or what?

I don't buy anymore...

DISCLAIMER I'm in no way associated with OpenCoin as for today.

Imagine I'm boss of this OpenCoin company and hold private key from XRP 100B account, here are my answers:


I don't really care about what will happen to network after the point when I sold my XRP 100B holdings. Maybe I will start another one.


I created a lot because I hope for mass adoption of this and I don't want to bother about how to name 0.0001 XRP - mini BTC or statoshi... You  know what I mean, right?


Irrelevant - no comment here.


No... who told you that? XRP is not a currency in my eyes... it's tickets to the show called Ripple transactions.. and I'm just selling tickets here... I'm selling "Ripple" to you.. and you buying "Ripple" with XRP.


With all the respect, let me decide what I need to do... If you think we did not do our homework evaluating all these things you are wrong...

Plus, you must understand that we are not 19 years olds building another start up for photo sharing  at the basements of their parents.. We know how Bitcoin works inside out... plus much more ... so be sure - what I offer is the best stuff for today.



It's my business model... or you think I'm working for free here? I have my bills to pay... my kids need college, my wife needs bigger house.. I always wanted to buy this Tesla car...



It's not flawed at all... XRP is mine, of course I'm ready to lose some part of by spending on advertising. Nobody but me can create it... If you want to "mine" it like BTC, no problem "mine" them from me... Let me save you money you spend on ASICs and GPUs... We have wholesale discounts for amounts starting from 1M and more...


Little piece of advice, stop being concerned about how much money I will make on this, concentrate on how much money we can do together as a partners...

Just thinking, why people can't embrace that XRP is not meant to be like BTC, just go trade USD, BTC, EUR... go make/give loans, transfer money etc...

No

Look, as far as I know there is limited XRP number = 100 000 000 000.

Now let's imagine you make a promise to sell any amount for 1000 XRP for $1. This will give you maximum $100 000 000 profit when you will run out of XRPs.

Pros:

1. People will always be sure they can use Ripple for predefined value or less.
2. XRP will never be speculative vehicle as Bitcoin is.


Cons:

1. You will make maximum $100 000 000 for all your efforts.
2. Somebody can buy all XRP and network will be paralyzed


Now, in case of network paralyze we just jump into Ripple 2, where you again have XRP 100B, same rules etc...

NO DAMAGE WILL BE CAUSED, that's why:

1. We would not need to transfer value like in case of BTC chain reset - it's only XRP will be reset ( that nobody cares about since there will be Ripple fountain where you can buy them (from you) )

2. Everybody will just need to re-adjust credit lines - this is not the problem because people will anyway do it very often.

So? People, what do you think
