Even better... it will make BTC and Ripple very close connected.

Idea how to give away XRP:

You must make a commitment to fill any orders that want to buy XRP above some predefined threshold...

For example, people will always be able to buy XRP from you at $0.001

Benefits:

1. People will always be sure that they can buy "fuel" to drive.
2. You will be able slowly cash out money
3. There will be price stability, such needed thing in the beginning.

whats to stop someone from erasing their "bad credit" by genning a new address in a new wallet

In case he did not have deposit in some trust, same thing that will stop people from running with other peoples money - nothing..

Wow, how much things changed since my last visit.

We we could not have Ripple layer OVER bitcoin protocol just like this - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=118616.0

Come on guys, give me a hand and validate this idea...

It's not so clear, because you can not see my full position. I can be long BTC at 9 and sell CALL @ 12.

Inspired by Mike Hearn's https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Ripple_currency_exchange
and https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=106373.0

Let’s say there 3 people – person A, B and C. All of them have BTC addresses – address A, B and C. There is also address D – this is multi signature 5-of-9 (n-of-(2n - 1) type).

Events:
Person A owes person B 51.3 BTC and must repay it during next 123 days.
To store this event person A transfers from address A to address B - 0.00513123BTC.  Where last 3 digits – number of days from the day transaction was sent (0.00000123). And other digits – amount BTC owed / 10000. (0.00513000)

Person A pays person B 51.3 BTC – nothing fancy here, just plain transfer from address A to B OR he can send same transaction from address A to address B, making total sum of debts = 0.

Person C wants to insure person’s A debts (part of it, let’s say 23 BTC) – person C takes address A and uses as a private key to make address A(p). Person C makes multi signature 2-of-2 address out of A(p) and address C. Sends there 0.00000023 BTC.

Person C wants to cancel insurance of person’s A debts – person C removes all the money from multi signature 2-of-2 address out of A(p) and address C.

These rules alone will create basic framework on but we can take it even further.

How to enforce loan repayments?

Let’s say person A made 100 BTC deposit into address D – trust account.  Trust rules say that person A can withdraw maximum amount in BTC = 100 – (total of his liabilities).

Person A owes 100 BTC and defaults but was insured by person C for 50 BTC– now person C can take out of trust amount x less 50 BTC, where X – amount in BTC he deposited into trust.

Person A can be insured by person C, person C by person N, person N by person M etc…

Here are more suggestions what rules trust can employ:

Creditors are repaid in FIFO order (First in first out)
If insurance is cancelled – it still applies to any loans made before and during the day it was cancelled.

What is missing here?

There are no sell orders at your exchange.

Are you responsible for market making BUZ2 this or it's only P2P?

There are strategies that will allow you to do tons of money in the world of friction less trade... This place is never vacant.

Can somebody explain me why there is open risk free arbitrage on BUZ2?

If I sell 100 BUZ2 @ 14 and buy 100 BTC @ 12.83 I will get 117 USD risk free profit.

In order to sell the contracts you have to first create them. That takes capital to cover. Perhaps you've not really tried the method you propose?

Let's say, I will transfer $1M to your bank account.

You, as market maker, will buy from me or sell to me if needed.

Will it work?

Sell 83 333 contracts of this http://polimedia.us/bitcoin/mpex.php?mpsic=O.BTCUSD.P120N

If bitcoin will be above 12 USD by December - you will get 0.2 * 83 333 = 16666 BTC + initial 1 000 000 USD.

If bitcoin will be below 12 USD by December - you will have BTC 100 000.

Even more:

You can continue doing so until  one day you are assigned BTC. When you have BTCs you do same thing but upside down.

Sell Call contracts with strike at spot level.

Can you give out some basic info of your plan how to do it better than others? This business is very attractive one


EDIT:

For example, I take loan for 6 month in BTC, how can I protect myself from BTC rise using your service?

I do not believe in technical analysis, but that all available information is priced in the current value.

The first part contradicts with the second...
