I was poking through the letters from Homeland Security to the Senate and I found this Tcash Ads/BitInstant issue:

They have Proof of Stake.  By the senate metric, means potential taxpayer, donor or vote influence.
come on you turkey>> you know what i'm saying: everyone calls ripple a scam! LOL  Grin ~personally i have not DD'd them ..i just noticed they were on the list*fwiw*
XRP has far more to gain/lose from the hearings than BTC, and is better positioned to do so.  XRP is more Fed-friendly as a debt-trading instrument, even if it is designed to outlive and drain it of value.

I actually would argue it's good to have some rep's at these senate hearings.  I realize some of the rep's may not have the purest of intentions, but I worry about what would happen in a senate hearing with nobody there from the Bitcoin community.

A lot more damage could be done by SEVERE misunderstanding by government officials.  Having people who at least understand Bitcoins thoroughly could go a long way.

With this as a backdrop I can't say I expect much good to come out of such a meeting

Really!

“The TPP will boost our economies, lowering barriers to trade and investment, increasing exports and creating more jobs for our people, which is my number-one priority,” Obama said during a Nov. 2011 address. The deal, he said, “has the potential to be a model not only for the Asia Pacific but for future trade agreements” by regulating markets and creating opportunities for small and medium-sized businesses in the growing global marketplace.

Let me guess. Some Canadian subcontractor is going to build the website for this beast.
