Is Ripple (XRP) a buy?

[cyberspacemonkey]

Ever since one of the Founders (Jed) of the Ripple payment protocol stepped down and announced to be selling its billions of XRPs stake ripple prices have collapsed, but the question is, how low can it go? and also does Ripple have a future? I just don't like the fact that you can't actually mine the coin.

if you're willing to take the risk, why not.  he also mentioned making a 'pre-me-selling announcement' to help xrp holders.  i think it has something to do with his secret btc project.
