Someone's dump is someone's pump. Might also turn around.

Someone's dump is someone's pump. Might also turn around. Wait a second, is that graphic actually saying the total supply is 100 billion, but the available supply is *only* 30 billion??

Someone's dump is someone's pump. Might also turn around. In every similar situation in the past (dump n pump), an alt used to be a ''bitcoin sanctuary'' afaic the price. Maybe because this way, it's easier to move around huge amount of money without those being dollars, euros etc. In the past LTC used to be in this role. This time it is Ripple. I really don't understand no other way other than "short-term" storage value for Ripple. The possibility that -at any given time- the ones who made it, can also call it off simply makes me wary.

Went long at $305. Here comes the pump.
Edit: this sub has really gone downhill, btw.

And this my friend is the reason, why Ripple is the wrong pill. It's not designed to make people more free, but keep the current system alive! This is also, why banks and governments will like it more than Bitcoin. Bitcoin is a movement for freedom and human rights. Ripple might lead us in a dystopian future. We will se how it plays out and which pill people choose. This is why I wonder, who are the real supporters of Bitcoin - taking a very high risk, to free society! And are not in the game for a short time profit - which definitley can and will be made in Ripple from here on. This also says. The ones who help society to flourish the most, should get high rewards.

Thanks dude, that makes more sense. This may be a losing battle, but it's one I intend to fight till the end. "They can take our FREEDOM, but they'll never take our BITCOIN!"

It just states in case a coin will get widely adopted I hope it is not Ripple & Co.

But the fight has to be won now - cause then it will be clear what most people will going to use. I'd like to state, that not everything is as black and white, as I outlined it here: I believe Ripple has best intentions. And I think that Ripple can be very beneficial for the transition to the cryptomoney world. But in the long run ALL organizations get currupted - that's just human nature.

One last word on Ripple.
As owners claim they are compliant with regulations from the very beginning. This is exactly the attitude I dislike the most, as it leads directly to slavery in one form or another. Look back at history and see, how every single human right had to be fought about. Why should this have changed in recent times!?
Tell me the crypto you invest in and I tell you who you are.

This is exactly why it will succeed. I'm not saying dump all of your BTC for XRP, just that Ripple is really nice and works well.

It may do that, however the use case for Ripple is completely different from the use case for trustless currencies like Bitcoin. With Ripple, you're transacting in IOUs and must trust the issuer of those IOUs to be solvent and willing to pay. Hopefully, that means IOUs from large institutions only will be accepted by most people. Otherwise it's a credit bubble in the making. So Ripple seems best suited for activities that don't differ much from what you can do with banking nowadays. Maybe it can provide real value in that space, but any radical shifts to the status quo like uncensorable currency? I don't see it. That's what Bitcoin aims to do.

That's encouraging, I didn't think it smelled like a proper panic. A good double bottom is likely, then. Thank god, can we get this over with?

No "proper panic" is allowed to older users (averaging > 1.5 years) but, human nature is a bitch. You never know ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)
