Like with the founders of certain Bitcoin clones, I think their greed may be their undoing.
Yeah, there are definitely some red flags around Ripple at this point. But, if the system itself (not necessarily XRP) succeeds, it has a potential to complement and enhance the Bitcoin ecosystem in many ways. So, I wish Ripple to succeed, regardless of their founders greed or lack of thereof. Re complementing and enhancing Bitcoin, yes indeedy! Re their greed, maybe they deserve the reward, it can't have been easy to construct such an elegant framework. The sooner the code (server included) and XRP initial seeding rounds are opened up the better. I know you're in XRP buy mode but I don't suppose you could spare me a thousand (for a bitcent) so I can try it out with a few local buddies? |

It's all a bit too closed for my liking. The founders have donated 80 billion to OpenCoin - already there's alarm bells - they're keeping back a 20% stake of an entire economy for themselves?!
And then OpenCoin doesn't have a simple or fair way to share out the XRP, nor have they even pledged to distribute all of it, and yet there are even a couple of active gateways in place already? How come I, for example, can't just go ahead and open mine? It all seems stacked against the eventual users, which is a real shame as the overall concept is nothing short of brilliant.

+1 I read about ripple on wikipedia earlier and had alarm bells ringing when I saw this. Note that the Ripple protocol itself wouldn't preclude a hierarchical payment structure evolving, it just allows for the possibility of other structures. If it doesn't preclude a hierarchical structure then one will develop as surely as night follows day |

Why not, just drop your bitcent to 1ArviCCoWxAPBYwQKyBnRsD3iPdxpJgJyS and post/PM your Ripple address. how much is a bitcent? |

To answer the many PMs I got so far - yes, I'm still buying, send in your XRP to rnZoUopPFXRSVGdeDkgbqdft8SbXfJxKYh and PM me your Ripple and Bitcoin addresses.
How much for 60K ripple? |

Man, I should have waited on this. Got in early for .4btc, and it's .6btc now. Lesson learned... don't sell early.

Did you wait longer than five seconds? The impatience of some people here is astounding.
