I hope no one is actually buying ripples (RTC), they are still set to release huge chunks. Ripple seems like a good intermediary for currency transactions (way better than paypal), but if you are speculating that a ripple will increase in value, I wouldnt. Yeah they made 100billion and a fraction disappears every time you use them, but there is nothing from stopping them to issue another 1000 billion or 100 million trillion lol. In my opinion, people looking to get in on the ground floor of the currency and "make millions" like early bitcoin adopters are wasting their cash.
RTC? WTH kinda thread is this?
They will not release more XRP. Once the source is released the number of XRP will officially be fixed, just like Bitcoin.
