I've never heard of any Ripple (XRP) hardfork so I think you should be careful about this project. Many forks use the name of the reputable coins to scam people. The fact that if the project asks you to deposit before you can claim your airdrop. That's suspicious.

Don't just believe what you saw and read especially if that fork is not handle by the xrp team always check for the official announcement, Just like what anybody says it is a scam, and the user who posted it is already been tag for this suspicious project that does not exist. Yeah, it is almost the same with those fake ethereum forks and they are just stealing private keys so don't ever think about importing your keys in those fake forks. If you encounter another project with a suspicious fork directly go to their community like on telegram or twitter and ask your question.

I wasn't too surprised when I came across this project today claiming to be XRP fork, I remember I've seen many Eth forks in 2018 that introduced bounties but end up been a scam

Here is the link of the new bounty project that raised too many eye brow

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bountyxrdcripple-decentralized-ripple-fork-airdrop-5229448

Tell me what you guys have to say about this

Ripple has no fork of any kind and just like most Ethereum forks which ends up scamming people, the same is rightly to be said about this one. Some of the things to understand is, scammers are never sleeping, they will keep looking for ways to scam and will continue trying different strategies to succeed and this is one of their strategies. So I will say, you forget about it and put your money elsewhere, ETH or BTC.

I think by now, everyone should be aware that all ripple forks are fake.
The only project you should expect a fork from should be etherum and bitcoin, for other blockchain you need to check official sources

That's why as a newbie, doing research is very important, and having rhe right sources of information too

Though there forks that are in the market now, but I think people have already lose their interest on forks.

For me, I think bitcoin is the only coin that is best for forks, since bitcoin has no developer that would change its system, so those people who think that bitcoin is not good enough for long term, so they made a fork, but AFAIR, only BCH and BSV are called a successful forks, for altcoins, I haven't seen one that succeed, so even if the team behind the project is real, I would not invest a single centavo on it.

They could claim whatever they want. It's up to you to trust or believe in their claim. I got experience with so many projects fail after they claim they were fork to develop a strong policy 'stay way from it'.  From a look of it, if they didn't fork is even better.

Good you brought it to the attention of many people and probably will be saving someone as well. My say about this is that, it is just some scammers looking for who to defraud while using Ripple (XRP) as a cover up. The project doesn't make sense, in fact a lot of these fork projects are just used as a means to scam and there is a very high chance that this will be same with others. There are many good projects in the crypto market to look into, as for this one it is not worth it in anyway, so just count it as garbage and move on.

Ripple is a crypto currency which is run by a enterprises and is used for banking and cross border transactions so any coin which claims to do a soft or hard fork is a fake project

Just checking the trust of the user who posted the bounty for this ripple fork will get you an idea that this is just another scam in the making. People should know that most of these forks who are using the name of popular alts are fake at its best. Trying to lure users to invest or buy their coins in exchanges. Once you inquire from those original projects, they don't know about those forks. So be careful in buying those coins because their lifespan is usually short.

Hope you are well aware by now the difference between a major fork and a copy coin using their open source blockchain. When it comes to ETH you are confusing with the tokens and a fork, anyone could create a token even you can make a token with the ETH platform and give out any number of coins you create and it is not that hard, the only thing you need to know is a bit of programming and you can have your own toke, there were many scammers who were giving out airdrops and bounties and sad to hear that you got ripped off.

If the fork does not requiring you to send your money, then it is good.
What we must careful is sometimes, the fork is only the trap to steal coins from peoples because they are requiring to input private key, send coins to their wallet, or other shady requirements.
every news about a fork or some kind of strong event is bringing to this market a lot of scammers. we must always be careful and be able to determine when some people are trying to deceive us.
I totally agree with you to imagine from 2017 until now many of us have heard the word hardfork which ultimately does not have an effect that can provide price increases at the exchange but it is all just a trick to be able to influence new traders who do not have the experience of the fork sentence on cryptocurrency.

My understanding of the way in which the ripple frock can take the seat of faith does not work at all. The way Mother Coins including Bitcoin have been publicly positioned with a single dominance. As a result, all the coins should not be allowed to rise.

That ripple fork is from IMO team, they are the scammers at work, that's how they gamble with HCE (health project) that was at 0.34$ and turned to 0.01$ now, even the IMO platform token have dropped alot, the IMO teams are the ones creating all those bad projects to fool investors who don't know how to do research

Just ignore this project it has a flag created for this project and anyway you look at this project it's a scam
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ripple-decentralized-most-likely-scam-another-fork-with-no-team-and-whitepaper-5230597 Ripple will disown this project and may even recommend this project to consider it a scam
there's also a rule here that you need to make a deposit before you can claim your airdrop, now that's a big warning sign.

I never head such platform or fork that needed to send money just to gain those coins forked. Forking of coins is not an ICO, you just need to have the coin it will do a splitting in order to acquire the new coin. I read so many forks of xrp anf some of them are all scam. Xrp not uses ethereum blockchain, but there are xrp forks announced here and on twitter before that they have an upcoming fork with an erc20 type. When I read of it, Im not sure if Im going to laugh or cry, since this is totally a nonsense and obviously a scam. Anyway newbies should learn and understand how fork works and dont jusy jump on any of it just because of profits.

This is not true, and i urge you to not get involved with it.
In case of next time, any day you see a post or thread related to forks. proceed to the projects original twitter or telegram handles to verify.

A ripple hardwork will not be announced only on btt, but on reputable global outlets.

There seems to be an anomaly here. Because the economic market situation has created such an infrastructure that it is not possible to put it out of decentralization in any way. So I would say there is no reliance on such tokens on the blockchain maker. Not so informative , Perhaps scam project .

Maybe they just used their name.Even you can create any tokens or coins with any names, that doesn't matter.As you can see their many tokens and coin which names start with bitcoin or ends with bitcoins.All that coins are not forked.They just used bitcoin name for popularity.I think XRDC just used ripple for popularity.And you can't do anything against them. Actually Name doesn't matter, If they are legit they will be success or if they are fake then they will fail for sure. 
base on the wallet they are providing on the website they are also using the same address as xrp. I am just a bit affraid that this fork is just collecting many seeds so they can claim it later after the fake fork completed, and many user's paste all thier seeds to that address.
Or if someone send xrp to the address they are providing in the website.
Agree with you, this not just about the name, but the lack of information provided and look strange. you might be lose your fund if you enter your private key on these web wallet, also someone (bubbalex) open scam accusations thread about this project here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ripple-decentralized-most-likely-scam-another-fork-with-no-team-and-whitepaper-5230597

They actually want people to picture XRP as a bad coin not for it being popular. They do have a good point about it though, its true XRP is centralize to its core we all know the XRP team just unlocked their coins and now it would take years and years before we can even see its price go up because of it.

This team presented themselves like the protagonist savior but people will actually chose XRP still than this new XRDC due to most projects today are scam specially if the team is anonymous.

If XRP fork will happen than first of all we know this news from Ripple platform. XRDC bounty campaign it’s a ridiculous thing where ann thread because if this is a fork coin of ripple. Without whitepaper and team's they claiming it’s xrp fork project. I never heard before this is a ripple fork platform. Avoid this kind of garbage projects.

Not really, that's another fake news and you should be careful from these scammers. In addition to that, Ripple does not make a hardfork , maybe it is the strategy of bankers due to this currency was created by them. Furthermore, I don't really give a big attention to XRP despite it is one of the best crypto in the market, and it has some features.

Fork doesn't have to be an "official" one, bitcoin has plenty of forks that we are aware of, look at bitcoin cash and bitcoin sv, they are forks of bitcoin itself but they are not related to bitcoin at all, they are different versions of it and they are literally owned by some people versus bitcoin being everyone's money.

Ripple on the other hand is simply owned by a company so that currency doesn't have that type of issue. You simply pick whose coin you want to invest into and if you do not mind centralized currencies that means why wouldn't you invest into the other fork as well. So all in all it is a totally different currency but it does have the same short comings of the original one here.

Yes, this information is still very ambiguous for us to believe, because there is no official information from the Ripple team directly, so in this case I would rather agree to be considered Fake, unless there is clarification from the developer directly, we can only trust.

Do not buy this kind of articles/news or what so ever it if does not come from the Ripple Team theselves. It would be just an ordinary coin like other coins which had forked or even less. Ethereum fork has not helped it value to spike up since its hard porked in 2018 and  this one will be the same just in case it would happen.

Am just coming across it and from the look of things, it isn't from the XRP team either, as in why would there be a need for a fork, and even if there were the news will be out for all to see. And also, there were many Ethereum fork back in the days which all ended up fraudulent thus won't be mistaken if this can be likened as such. Lastly, one thing worth taking note of is, since the market is changing gradually, many projects will come up to deceive and take their own share of money from many people hence everyone needs to be careful and alert.

Of course, this is not an official project from Ripple, and I think creating a decentralized Ripple, for now, is not the right time. Their team is also not composed of famous people, so I can confirm that this project is a junk project.

This is surely a scam attempt. Last year Ethereum vision bounty came with the same way. Just a website, no team, no partner, no wallet! All of these attempts to scam people's money. But I feel worried that many people are doing this bounty, did they forget about ETCV? There is no ripple fork, if you ask some technical question in their telegram group, you will be banned by these scammers Ripple Decentralized's admins.
that account should be tagged by DT if its true that there are no fork of ripple .
Having a bounty is make more worried since they have it then there is potential they will have a free advertisement from noob and those who dont take time to research about the project they are promoting.

If you are thinking of participating in that bounty, I will advise you to not waste your time and energy because the project is not a viable one. This is very common for a long time now to see a false forked being announced to be a faceless individual. Last year alone, not fewer than 4 Ethereum fork was announced here on BTT and all of them were purely fake. If I am in your shoes, I think I will take a look at the website and check for basic tips before committing to the project. This project lacks credibility and see that web wallet makes me remember some crude way these scammers use to steal important information from people

Yeah, they are claiming that it is a fork from ripple because it was base on the Ripple Blockchain according to them their goal is to decentralize the XRP coin and they are telling also that there will be an airdrop for those holding XRP in the personal wallet the snapshot will occur on March 3  1 XRP: 2 XRDC coin ratio, by the way, I will try it. I think it is not a problem if its true or not. my XRP still in my wallet so still it is in my control. I do not trust this project in totality thats why take extra precaution I won't join in their bounty. but I try its airdrop if it is true.

The bounty is only started today but the snapshot will happen in just 1 day base on the website time.

They are not answering questions in telegram channel.
those are points that may tells us this project to scam,making people to download your apps to be used as wallet is really doubtful .
why not just let people use other wallet for their own safety?
and also not answering valuable points asked in telegram is a sure thing they are scammers,and also those people that asked same questions will be blocked or kicked in their group?no don't trust  project like this.

I don't think it's real or maybe it's just sht fork? well they don't even have an announcement thread to discuss what's their difference to ripple itself. But I don't think what's the purpose of them creating such thing (If it was fake).

It suspicious that they didn't have an announcement thread and just a group  Huh but as a normal person I see this as not real/fake kind of fork.

This is probably a joke coin. The name itself is describing the description of Ripple and this has been called by many cryptocurrency people. And if it's official, just look to the channels or mediums of XRP or the specific coin and see if they are the coin that forks it.
Btw, this is crypto and many developers can fork any project that they want and make the coin look like a joke.

Ripple never does a hardfork and any coin that claimed to be a ripple fork is not a real ripple fork. That's only a garbage coin that used the name of big coin to get the demand from the ripple users and holders.

I can't agree more. Forks are all bunch of shitcoins, like bitcoincash, and other forks in the top cryptocurrency like bitcoin, Ethereum, etc. Even if it is real, it can't hide fact that it is just a clone of the original one, and we all know that clones never stay forever, maybe they do have a price for a while, but I guarantee you, it won't last that long.

Claiming those forks is not bad at all, but it is not worthy to be on hold in your wallet for years, it will just rot in there and will become useless if you don't sell it after you claimed it.

Very suspicious project because they don't provide details who they are, I would understand if its a privacy coin but its not. They didn't promise an exchange listing nor any partnership to a crypto project in the past.  If they are not answering questions in the telegram then, the team is not serious in this promotion.  

I just quote some FAQ from them.


Code:
Why did you decide to Fork Ripple?

We believe that the idea of Ripple is great, but the execution is flawed. The management has too much control over the supply of coins. The CEO keeps dumping XRP in the market for personal enrichment. This led to a 90% drop in value in the past couple of years. We want to move away from this unsustainable model and make Ripple decentralized.  

Is it a hard fork?

No. Ripple isn't a mineable coin, so technically it can't have hard forks. We call our coin a fork because it's based on XRP but also different in terms of the consensus, coin issuance, and control over supply.

Please avoid dealing with such coin. The ripple fork coin never exists. Most of these coins were claiming to be the fork just a new copy cat coin.
Do not misinterpret forking the code source with a hardfork-chain split. There is no fake or real in this case because they do not claim to be a real Ripple but instead another.
They are forking Ripple code-source or we can call it they are re-creating Ripple from the beginning using their model. Just like you said it is a new copycat coin using Ripple source if they are really build up their blockchain.
So far we know nothing about their project, I have asked a few questions on their thread regarding their information.
Until further confirmation, I think it is better for us to stay away from it.

It's just another some fake fork i think, Same with other people that say above to be more careful with something like this, It's have same scheme with another fork that you can find on other popular coin.

Yeah, we haven't heard any Ripple fork whatsoever, so probably this is another scam attempt. No whitepaper and no team? what kind of project is that?

Besides, there is a on-going battle in the court, https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/8150354/85/zakinov-v-ripple-labs-inc/

So maybe the people behind are using it to looks like there is a real Ripple fork, and the campaign is like 3 weeks running?
Anyway, I'm little bit curious what is this case about? I have visited and seen the file case but do not really understand, Anyway thanks for the information mate!

just be careful with it, dont use your main wallet that connected even for this bounty campaign. they also provide free coin for XRP holder and provide web wallet that need access with your private/secret key.

I have just stopped by to read a little. With the tagline "Ripple decentralized," I think this project is a joke. You just can't decentralize a centralized system. Anyway, it seems that the XRDC coin won't use XRP codebase since it's a PoW coin (assumed that the project is real). They just use the "Ripple" brand for popularity.

I wasn't too surprised when I came across this project today claiming to be XRP fork, I remember I've seen many Eth forks in 2018 that introduced bounties but end up been a scam

Here is the link of the new bounty project that raised too many eye brow

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bountyxrdcripple-decentralized-ripple-fork-airdrop-5229448

Tell me what you guys have to say about this
