I'm not sure I understand your question... what is happening with ripple, the service, or with XRP, the ripple currency/token system? The latter is probably just speculators overreacting over BTC price change against USD, I guess.

As for the former, is there something I missed?

Maybe they lost a huge payment gateway, not sure. Or banks don't want to work with them anymore.

Sure, ok, I tried it in the past and thought it was crap... but what is happening now?

I will not say no to a little #DarkLove now and then!

Maybe be a good time to buy if you have some buck,can buy more dark in a week or two maybe

But future is definitively on darkside 

the end of Ripple... RIP

Wheres your donation address? I don't see it, will back up kind words with a little kiss  

It's a catch-22 situation on Bitfinex.

 Anyone know what is going on with Ripple?

I said this before but btc-e is the biggest exchange for altcoins.No one trades altcoins on Bitfinex.Bitfinex darkcoin volume was 2/10 of cryptsy.

Thank you for your kind words! This pic is great, I've saved it for future use.
If you like my logo, it was made by anonymousxxx, who has since taken to slamming me for reasons unknown...

Tao, I love your enthusiasm and style,the chameleon emblem is also slinky cool(btw I once saved an amazing large 2 foot long chameleon in Madagascar from the busy road-it bit me but I didn't mind as they dont really have a proper bite, it had gone solid green colour with fear, rrr),  thank you for all your hard work  

Great stuff! Thank you for supporting us! You will be the subject of my next tweet.

If I get it right, you can transfer fiat between 2 exchanges using a type of token system? Thats a really good idea, getting money out of exchanges tends to be expensive and involved, could be really useful, glad you got Darkcoin on board 

Bumped for the lovers and the haters....

Thank you!

But regarding "ripplecoin" as you call it, have a glance at my previous post. That's not at all what DR is about, XRP and STR are subproducts and frankly or little impact to the service we're offering.

Love me or hate me, I'm getting people talking, and Darkcoin benefits because of it. Who's to say what's wrong or right? Everyone's got an opinion. Like Renegade Man so eloquently put it, this is an open source project, and I create open source PR.
 
Some people are very conservative, and want to do things the classic way. That gets results. I choose to do it the TMZ way, and I've proven that that also gets results, by the amount of people I get into this awesome coin!

BTW, @stonehedge, I would love to see you on Twitter, just make sure I'm the first one you follow! (I can tell)  

So, in summary,

HATE ME: I respect your opinion, but you should know, I'm relentless, and I'm never going to stop being me.  

LOVE ME: Thank you so much for your support, and know our efforts are making a difference.
   

Keep slamming me or RTing me, the passion around this coin is a good thing!

Well, that's not a small task at all

Ripple and Stellar are IOU issuing systems, I think it's the best description for them. They both are the brain children of Jed McCaleb, the original creator of MtGox (yes, I know that's not the best vouch for a person, but he sold it to those who made a mess), Stellar being a clone of sorts  of Ripple. Their best use? A great distributed trading platform.

But keep in mind they are centralised systems, so all funds you deposit to DR are held by DR, from which you get IOUs issued to your Ripple or Stellar account that can then be transferred or traded.

There are a lot of neat things about Ripple and Stellar, like the fact currencies are fungible, so if you hold USD from bitstamp and send to someone that only trusts snapswap, if there is a user holding balance and trust on both you can actually send USD.bitstamp to that user and have the USD.snapswap be delivered to your recipient, automatically.

Stellar doesn't support this yet, I believe, but Ripple also allows for you to send something, say BTC to someone even if you don't have BTC, by using for example DRK and trading it automatically for BTC before sending. It has a lot of possibilities and features. Most people, when thinking about Ripple or Stellar think about their own currencies, XRP and STR, even though these are not real currencies, rather tools in the system, and there is really no point in comparing them to BTC, DRK, etc, imho.

If you trade or need to transfer funds easily across currencies these systems are really worth a look, but they aren't altcoins or anything of the sort.

I find it hard to try and explain what all the fuss is about, as it took me many days to have my aha moment and seeing the possibilities, but do read around and if you have any specific question I can help with let me know.

Have you ever tried Directbet.eu?

Believe me, way before InstantX was pushed out, they were already blazing fast. Bets can be placed and won before a block is found. Only when a bet get a bit high does it wait for the the PoW block. I tell you, one of the BEST and most FLUID services I've ever tested. No sign-ups, instant auto payouts, no questions asked. I confess, I went a bit bananas with them and they always delivered.

I started winning way more than loosing on dice, won a shit load, then I lost a shit load, then I started getting addicted, so I quit while I was ahead. I hate gambling. Never gabled in my life. I re-invented the martingale thinking I was a genius. I consider this one long life lesson learnt.

Do not gamble! It can ruin you life!!

But... their service is blazing blazing BLAZING fast and a great example of what can be achieved.



but yeah, I do challenge anyone who has bigger balls than me, maximum bet is 1554, so you can still beat me at it!! 

Don't know anything about rippler-looks an interesting approach, and am not into lotteries or ripplecoin too be honest(because its not minable and centralized looking mainly), but the more platforms that support Darkcoin the better, and I wish you luck with your project.
