Ripple users can make bitcoin payments directly from the Ripple client. We call it a Bitcoin Bridge and it gives Ripple users access to the entire Bitcoin economy.The Bitcoin Bridge is a simple protocol that connects the Ripple and Bitcoin networks. When you send money from Ripple to a Bitcoin address. Ripple was designed to be currency inclusive. It works on principle - send money to anyone from anywhere in any currency. Instead of promoting one currency or another, Ripple makes it easy to send payments in any currency.

I'd say people on here seem to care quite a lot about ripple.  Not mostly supporters of it, but care enough about it to comment as you have done.

OK, can someone explain to me what the crap is Ripple?

How is it created if it is?
Or is this something like WU? But with none existent "Ripples"?

@Tradefast: Although I don't care about El Dude and his opinion, I'd rather like if you kept your postings out of the general bitcoin discussion - it's only provoking unneeded antagonistic reactions.
Since all 4 of your posts are thread-starters, and you don't seem to engage in any follow-up discussion, it looks very much like that is actually what you want to achieve (and on top, your statement looks like it was just copied verbally from some web page).
BTW, the bitcoin bridge does not work at the moment (unless Bitstamp has re-enabled it) so using it as a pro-Ripple argument is pretty lame.

I have tried to understand Ripple more than once but I can't seem to find a good explanation of it. Like technical explanation without code.

Thanks for the link dude.
It is exactly what I thought it was.
Nothing but a scam.

My question now is: is Bitstamp in on this?

You're obviously unaware that this ripplescam site was set up by TradeFortress, who most likely feared competition for his own business, and who in the end left his own users with significant losses when the bitcoins on his service were "stolen"...
Most of the statements on that site are false or half-true to the point of misleading.

Can you please provide more details?

It would be nice if I know more info.
Then I can draw a more correct conclusion.
