Just read that Opencoin gives out free XRP to all account holders. Any idea how that works?

yes you can get in by signing up then click "bitcoin users claim free ripples" or simply follow this link https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=145506BUT Anyone whose Bitcoin Forum account was created before February 19, 2013, 18:45 UTC, is eligible to receive XRP. AND thats NOT me. no free xrp for me. i hate how i always miss the boat. ALTHOUGH if any very genorous sirs/madames want to donate me some to: rfbRiPKirdwDStAgdvWWx64yCCfgkXXk3u and i will be forever grateful i didnt miss the boat afterall. best wishes, libertine.

i have none as of yet nor do i have any BTC but i sure as hell want some of both. i think the first giveaway was to bitcoiners. so looks like the rich may yet get richer. and to say im in this for libertarian views it doesnt bode well.

doesn't seem so...got an email today from them: Welcome to Ripple.com April 17, 2013
What is Ripple? Ripple is an open, money transaction network and is being described as a “potentially world-changing concept” by Bloomberg Businessweek. And now you have a front-row seat. As part of the Ripple network’s launch, we will be giving away billions of ripples to the world - and you will be one of the first to hear about it. We will be announcing the details of future giveaways here on this email list in the next two weeks so keep an eye out.
And check out our blog to read two new interviews with the co-founders of OpenCoin about what math-based currency means for the world. Thanks! Hope that means I get some freebies Just signed up, but no email like the one you had

if you signed up on this forum before February 19, 2013, 18:45 UTC then your ok you may get some free xrp but if you signed up like me after forget it. if you want the xrp to just sell as soon as it takes off forget it. its supposed to be a currency.

Took me a couple of weeks to get the email. I am sure it's just staggered sends. I figure if sign up before May you might get something.
Good to know. Thanks! In the meantime, any kind soul could send some to help me get started r8F83GsTLnxG5DyNmWvbY8yiToUw1h4xV Thanks

xrp will never be as profitable as bitcoin, but probably a better system for regular punters

Profitable is a very relative term, there are many who will profit much from ripple as there are many who did not profit at all from BitCoin...

Why would it need to profitable? for that matter - why should bitcoin be profitable? The whole idea is to replace government fiat, not to be a high risk venture so people will buy BTC and change them back to USD as soon as the price shoots. As I see it, the end goal is to have a bitcoin economy independent of any currencies.
