Topic: [POLL] Should CoinMarketCap.com re-list Ripple? - page 2. (Read 6771 times)
I hope Ripple can be "pardoned" before xmas ... so far "no" and "no way" are not really good reasons.
no...
No way..
Yes
No
I voted yes. I think newcomers shouldn't be subjected to bias of the few who fail to educate themselves on WHAT Ripple actually does. Let them make their own decision and show the full scope of alternative currencies on your website. Anyone who doesn't invest in a protocol which has million dollar backing from Google, Andreessen Horowitz (plus many others), a growing team of 35+ employees while providing a true revolutionary system for financial transaction is only hindering themselves. If it is really that hard for you to spot a good investment, maybe investing isn't for you or continue having fun with junkcoin et al on cryptsy.
This comes from a once vocal Ripple hater. I did my research and I fell in love.

Ripple is not a coin itself, is the fee that you pay for doing a transaction in their network
Ripple is a decentralized exchange.The native asset there is called "ripple(s)" or XRP.
This asset has features that are very similar to any other asset on other block chains, e.g. BTC, LTC... and some unique ones, like being destroyed when transactions take place on Ripple (the exchange). They can be transacted and traded (and are intended to be!), so I would see them on one level functionally with any other "coin" listed on that page.

Ripple is not a zero-trust coin (you need a federation of trusted server to run it).
I think the comparison would be unfair, so I vote no.
First of all, Ripple != XRP ("ripples")I think the comparison would be unfair, so I vote no.
Anyways, you can run the open source server yourself and all you need (as with any other listed coin on that site) is just to use the globally accepted main chain of blocks (or in Ripple's case: ledgers).
I don't see where ANY kind of trust is needed to send or receive XRP, maybe you can point me to the code portions in question?
I would re-list XRP under the name "ripples", NOT "Ripple".
Also I am not sure how to deal with the "total supply" part - after all theoretically all XRP could be transacted at any time (while only ~12 million BTC out of 21 million can be used atm.), on the other hand a huge part of these will first be handed out before being used for trade. I guess any solution would be fine, just please make sure that "Ripple" != "XRP (ripples)".
YES and if someone wants it to trade, just make it tradable only for sells to dump it... Chinese way.

Yup, I also hope to see it re-listed again
When Ripple was first listed on CMC, I received a large amount of requests to remove it from the default listings. Times have changed and was wondering if the community still feels the same way. Personally, I feel that more information is better so I would be for listing it again, but I want to see what the community thinks.
If you vote 'No', please give a reason in the thread.
