Don't spread that ripple crap here. If you want to advertise for it, do it in the alt-coin section!
Also, 25 xrp is not worth anything. It's just needed to activate the wallet (as you said). And then what? Buy ripples? No need. Better buy bitcoins!

It's not a good idea to invest in Ripple. it's centralised, not like Bitcoin and other altcoins.

Thought first msg is going to be: Deal with it. Left dissapointed.

Ripple, more like cripple, cripple btc like most altcoins are doing.

Just some of the VC's that are invested in Ripple.  They obviously love Ripple enough to invest in it, so I don't get why some people are not giving it a chance.

Read about Nxt, first really innovative coin after Bitcoin: http://justpaste.it/nxt-introduction-4-journalists

[Amph]

boats are infinite, they are now called scamcoin

ripple won't grow like btc, cap is too high there

[jwinterm]

I "mine" some ripple over at computingforgood with boinc and the cpus on my miners. It is constantly decreasing in value and I just sell it off for btc as soon as I get it at Kraken. Ripple is not a good investment, imo.

[kyma]

no one missed the boat, this is just the beggining, wait two years from now which will go fast, price is gonna boom

i completely agree... only up from here

ripple sure is pretty fast. their interface needs some work imo but nice features... Anyone interesting in ripple should check out XNF (NoFiatCoin) you buy shares of gold basically. mine have doubled in about a month.

also note that ripple labs is now gearing down the computing for good giveaway to focus on bounties for gateways. I have been receiving payments this month but i expect them to end soon.

Wait do you mean the poker forum? Seriously? Can't imagine they'll tolerate that for long...

[tokeweed]

^ they have an altcoin thread and i suggested they try ripple.  but he mad at ripple.  i don't get how some people are angry at ripple with a passion.  it only makes people more curious about it. and when they do try it, they'd soon find out that it ain't that bad after all. transactions are confirmed in seconds, built in exchange, currency conversion, etc... 

oh, and i am active in 2+2 since 2004.  again, please show me where i posted a referral link. i didn't post any.

The major issue here is that it's owned by a business. No one business should be able to operate/own a currency, it's completely unethical and dangerous if it actually was adopted.
