- glomph 14y agoFTA ' Ripple (XRP) is a new decentralized Bitcoin-like currency '
- JoelKatz 14y agoThere are people who want to promote it that way, but that doesn't include the people who designed and built it. Check out http://ripple.com/ http://ripple.com/
- nunyabuizness 14y agoBut the point is that if they (XRP) come to have any monetary value at all, the whole thing reduces to a ponzi scheme with benefits.
- wmf 14y agoI'm not totally sure on this, but AIUI XRP is a new currency and Ripple is a system that can trade any currency including XRP, BTC, USD, etc.
