Topic: Ripple or Bitcoin - page 33. (Read 34110 times)
Well ripple had its moments where it was talked about a lot here but it kind of just faded away
is this thread dead?
With all the trolling towards the end and considering there was no activity for nearly a year, yes. 
is this thread dead?
About Joel's wife ? A lot, I bet more than he knows himself.
Sorry, but i meant the thruth about ripple.
To be so personal and emotional when discussing in this forum just disqualifies the arguments. So please, if you have something serious to say, Im interested.
For "what i know", check links in my signature.
This topic has been discussed so many times...
In short:
- Ripple is not either open source or decentralized
- Their website lies about the truth
No more "truths" i know.

Then you believe it is just "OK" to lie in that manner to get more people in the project ?
Do you still beat your wife?So are we going to start insulting each other instead of just discussing on the topic ?
Why dont you tell us what you know?

Bitcoin, for sure

Do you still beat your wife? Why don't you just update the site and wiki so it reflects **the truth** ? That would shut the mouths of all critics.
It wouldn't shut the mouths of any critics, they'd just move on to some other argument that they don't actually believe.

Of course it wouldn't stop the zealots, but they'd have a harder time to gain followers for sure..
Yes the next thing will be: "It's pre-mined!" then after that "But you guys wanna destroy Bitcoin!" and after this "We will fork your code and make it obsolete, hurr durr!"
However in contrast to the licensing issue it requires some serious mental gymnastics to misinterpret things to come to these points.
nope, BTC for sure

Probably.The question is: will it really happen ?
Hey Joel, let me understand something.
Why all the lies ?

I mean WTF ? Is that really so damn difficult ?

The most popcorn worthy drama is how OpenCoin is going to inject the remaining 49 billion something XRPs into the market.

Bitcoin makes a lot of design sacrifices to enable it to operate as a distributed system with no central authorities. Whenever anyone suggests making a centralized system based on Bitcoin, everyone rightly points out that you have to accept all those sacrifices and in exchange get no benefits. That's just bad engineering. Ripple similarly makes lots of design sacrifices to enable it to operate as a distributed system with no central authorities. Not running it that way, you gain absolutely nothing in exchange for those design sacrifices (other than to validate the design).
So does that mean you guys will shut up once the beta ends and rippled is released as promised?

Too radical
