Hello folks, recently in the zerpbox there has been talked about an idea to approach FUD spreading. I liked the idea to have some page that is community curated and can be used as reference, especially when debating with FUDsters and newcomers. I think a simple page with around twenty bullet points and corresponding descriptions/answers would do the trick. All the information are out there in the forums already, or at least in the heads of the hive mind. Putting our experiences and insights together would be pretty beneficial for XRP and the community. - What do you think about this idea? - Would you like to participate on this? - Would it be good to have it curated by the community? - Should Ripple Labs themselves do this? - Would Ripple Labs allow this or think it is a good idea? - How should this look like in detail? My answers to the questions above: > What do you think about this idea? I think this would be really good, because it would help keeping arguments up. Having a simple reference you can point people to would be great. > Would you like to participate on this? Yes, I would also like to drive this a little bit. > Would it be good to have it curated by the community? Yes. The community is always way ahead of the FUD and actually on the very frontier. We have the argument. We have the opponents right in front of us. > Should Ripple Labs themselves do this? Uncertain. I think they should to a certain extend. The problem is often that somebody who wants to sell something is not as trustable to hold up the argument to sell something, because this somebody is the one winning the most out of selling something. Even though most of the community members are somehow invested into XRP, it would be good to have a document combining different viewpoints and opinions besides the biggest stakeholder. It would be good though if Ripple Labs would support this somehow. > Would Ripple Labs allow this or think it is a good idea? I do not know. Insiders please chime in here. > How should this look like in detail? IMO Github pages or a simple repository would do the trick. Everybody could create PRs for new content or content changes. This would be transparent to everybody. That way we could easily manage changes and keep track of the history. All the best, Tim.

The community could in a way vote on amendments without maintaining a validator themselves, this would allow the community's voice to be heard in the xrp ledger. An entity (me in this case) would be running a validator, the community could vote on amendments by sending transactions to a specific wallet that the validator maintainer owns with memos attached to them (e.g: YES/NO), the validator maintainer would run a server that would scan the wallet's ingoing transactions and scan their memos to tally up the votes. Every funded wallet on the xrp ledger can submit a vote, only once. This is a great idea in theory but the validator maintainer could manipulate the consensus vote, which creates a false narrative in the xrp ledger, the validator maintainer must be trusted by the community to not corrupt the community's decision. Also thank you @nikb for suggesting me to sign up here .

Hello world! We're pleased to announce something special that we've been preparing for the past couple months: XRPL Grants! This is a new program to support the XRP community by funding developers and projects directly. Unlike any prior initiative, XRPL Grants is primarily targeting individual developers and very small dev teams, in the earliest stages of building the next big thing. We know that many types of projects don't have a clear business model, especially in the early days. There are also lots of needs in the open source community, which don't directly lead to users or revenue, but are critically important to evolving the network and fostering innovative use cases. Those are the projects we want to support! There's more we can say, and we look forward to discussing in more detail today and in the weeks ahead. Find out more at: https://xrplgrants.org/ Also, I shall be running a couple of extra Twitch session tomorrow (Thursday 27th) at: 11 AM Pacific Daylight Time (18:00 UTC) 11 AM British Summer Time (10:00 UTC) Come chat to us at: https://www.twitch.tv/ripplexdev -Matt

I am not a lawyer or know any of the terminology well, but I hereby plea for @karlos to please consider unbanning @Hopium. I think he’s had a long enough time out, no? I, as well as many members alike I am sure would like him back on the forum making us all laugh and also providing insight which many times goes unnoticed/unappreciated/underrated. My hands are getting itchy right now to empty out one of my wallets, I could use his guidance of “don’t even think about parting ways with part of your bag etc etc” in a funny way. XRP is now nearing a DOLLAR for the first time since way back in the previous, glorious bullrun of 2017-18. We wouldn’t wanna miss his crowning of “Sir Parabolic” now would we? Are we gonna let some other forum have him and crown him? Just like the USA seems to be letting other countries flourish and relish in the advances of blockchain and crypto technology, or will we be the ones with the most diverse and awesome community. Honorable mention to @xrphilosophy who didn’t issue the permaban but was definitely not one of Hopium’s biggest fans. I mean this will all due respect to the moderators and community and in no way do I mean for this to upset anyone. Things are looking good for the XRP community, let’s forgive and let’s bring back the joy, laughter and celebration after years of doom and gloom. I’m not popping the champagne yet, but you get the point. Tags: @retep @Chookstar @Cesar1810 @BluKoo @Dario_o @xrp_is_love_xrp_is_life @solid102 @Rty-Quilla @MalluJohn @Akovo

It's time we, the XRP community, fork the XRP ledger. Hive is a good example of a successful community-led fork (fork of Steemit): https://decrypt.co/23854/hive-decentralized-fork-outperforms-steemit Who's in? How do we start?

Hello! I'm Claire Arthurs Kart (@clairearthurs), the new 'Head of Community' at Ripple and wanted to introduce myself to the community on XRPChat. I joined Ripple last week and am still getting my feet wet, but I look forward to getting to know everyone and hearing your ideas for how we can build a strong community together. I've been investing in crypto and reading deeply since 2013. Ripple, XRP and XRP Ledger enthusiasts have built a really strong community already, and I admire the passion, intelligence and thoughtfulness of the conversation happening across Twitter, Reddit, XRPChat etc. I became interested in crypto and blockchain technology while living in rural India and seeing first hand the negative effects of financial exclusion and outdated financial systems on the everyday lives of people. Building a more financially inclusive future that allows broader groups of people to participate in a formalized economy is why I joined Ripple and why I believe in the power of the technology. Enough for now - can't wait to meet and chat with you all!

I realise this may be a very stupid question or may have been answered in an earlier post , so I appologize if that's the case. How is it though that almost every coin is increasing and decreasing at almost the exact same time. People just so be happening to throw money at every crypto at exactly the same moment, I know this is not the case so any explanation would be greatly appreciated.

There has been so much unhappiness and FUD being spewed on XRP Chat regarding issues such as the decentralisation of the XRP ledger. Some are legitimate questions and queries but many others are maliciously crafted hyperbole disguised as genuine concerns. Most of the negative energy is being channeled via the general lacklustre cryptosphere as a whole, with certain bad actors exploiting this to throw fuel into the fire. Let us ask ourselves what we can do to help this community grow stronger. Poking a FUD bubble with facts would be the least we can do to help correct the misconceptions that are being spread everywhere by reprobates. Over the last few months I have set out to learn more about Ripple, XRP, the Interledger and other relevant details. I have also embarked on the tasks of setting up a validator node and also a Codius host, and with some sacrifices, managed to get both of these up and running. Do these consume resources? Yes, they take up time, energy and even money to install, run and maintain. However I believe this is what being part of a community is all about and if one is serious about wanting XRP to succeed, everyone of us needs to do our part to make it work. We cannot just sit back and watch what Ripple the company is doing. I believe that each and every one of us matters, and collectively our efforts can and will count towards the eventual success of XRP. To the believers and members of the XRP community, don't just sit on your hands. As Edmund Burke famously said: "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." Take care and God bless.

See the new update here ——————— (old updates) [Update 3] *Responsive Magenta!/White UI finished, *Saved a total of 20 minutes See the last update here (on Reddit) I did a little work on the UI, the first version of this one was breaking, apparently, I didn't code it "responsively"... So, I fixed that with MJML (responsive email-coding-thing), and now the text is aligned: Bad text-alignment versus Good text-alignment If you have any thoughts or suggestions on the look of the user-interface (UI) let me know, I'm liking how the magenta pops, and for me, it seems clear in terms of legibility. Fresh eyes are always helpful though! Fixes: Changed color theme—"MAGENTA/WHITE" Fixed email text-alignment Added spot for title of website Added numbering for posts to create "hierarchy" Removed red "Contribute" button, and instead made the titles clickable. Drafted "launch-plan" Added some error-catches to make it more "unbreakable" Goals for Tomorrow: Test UI on every email client web/mobile using either Litmus or something similar. Add 4 new websites to start receiving popular posts related to Ripple (6 total websites would be added by tomorrow). Any particular website(s) you'd like to have added? Sign-up for early-access to get notified of Vigilante's release, here (Google Form). Thanks for reading! I want to make information on Ripple accessible to everyone in a clear and efficient way. Again, I'd love to hear feedback.

One of the strengths that XRP has going for it? A strong community of investors and supporters that has grown leaps and bounds over the past year. In this latest blog entry, I talk about community-sponsored innovations and applications. I also show the poll results from my wallet poll so you can see which wallets were the most popular with other XRP owners. To round it out, I cover some new contributors on social media. I hope you enjoy the read: Please leave any feedback below. Also, feel free to share my blog on any other media or with a friend - and thank you in advance for doing so!

Sometimes I come across these tweets from @JoelKatz and @TiffanyHayden (and others) that grasp the XRP (and other) concept so sharp, or answer the fud so vigorous, they should be put on a tile. And that's exactly want I'm gonna do ?: Gather the best ones, have them printed in on transparant stickers and distribute them to all of you. With those, everybody can stick some nice #XRP tile-wisdom / aphorism in their toilet, on tiles at their friends' house or in every restaurant you visit. This should be fun and some nice community #XRP marketing ?. So, if you come across one or remember a good one, put the link here or DM me about it! And if there is anybody that wants to contribute (do basic design, ideas how to distribute them (for example put them for nearly nothing on some sticker webshop), etc) please let me know as well. Just to get the idea, here are a few of the last days:

After my last disastrous foray into community services (not many people liked the idea and I fell badly foul of Ripple Intellectual Property law, thanks for the warning guys!), I thought I would have another crack. This time it is pretty simple: 1. Sign up to the website - www.cryptoprizecompetition.com 2. Answer 3 questions correctly - all the questions are XRP related so if you have read the latest hodor articles then you should be fine.... 3. Go into the prize draw to win 1000 XRP! There is a coupon for 1 free entry per activated wallet - enter FREEXRP at the checkout. See terms and conditions for full details. For those of you worried about phishing and what not then just use a different email address and password to what you normally do. In addition your wallet address is public knowledge so no need to worry about giving these details away as they are available openly! Now I`m a member of the community trying to make the XRP ecosystem a bit more exciting and fun so please any advice or help is gratefully accepted. Also if you want to say mean things then please ensure they are constructive! All the best and any questions then just ask. RippleGambler

Greetings fellow Ripple hodlers, In these exciting crypto-hype times it is often hard to find out if news is actually confirmed, just a rumour or fake news. To solve this problem we have built a platform that contains 14 crypto communities. Community list: Bitcoin Ethereum Ripple Bitcoin Cash NEM Cardano Litecoin Stellar TRON IOTA Dash Monero NEO Verge Each community has it's own editor. This person makes sure that everything on their community page is up to date such as: Recent news (Confirmed, Rumour or fake news?) {currencyname} in the news Recommended markets And the community price prediction (voted by the community). The editor will get access to our CMS where they will be able to easily create and modify the content. Site demo: https://www.digitalconfirm.com/ Ripple community page demo: https://www.digitalconfirm.com/crypto/ripple What do we need: We're looking 14 for editors. Those editors will each have their own community. For example, the Ripple editor will moderate and maintain the Ripple community within the site, just like the Monero editor will only touch the Monero community of the site. If you're interested please fill out this google form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeEunIl9kAVFMAWqttQfccmg6JJtOEetfR99pDcn48mGDTYkw/viewform?usp=sf_link Thanks!

I see so many intelligent people on here, spreading information to all of us fantastic zerpers. I myself have learned an insane amount of knowledge over the brief period i have been apart of this chat room. The issue is this.... WE'RE ALL ZERP HODLERS. What if we created a twitter account with various admin that was solely based on the fight over FUD? As much as i love all the work being done on here, we really aren't doing anything to inform the people that we need to sway to our side to improve xrp price and ripple success. Does anyone see any value in this? Just because we don't work for ripple, doesn't mean we can't aid them in their success. And trust me... We wouldn't be doing it for free once we see waves of money being dumped into XRP. We can create a fanclub twitter account and also facebook group where we attack FUD spreaders with informative and well articulated arguments (no obnoxious, aggressive, idiotic garbage). I think that this would be a great approach and fantastic for both parties. Tell me what the zerp community thinks! EDIT: Also if you are interested in helping me on this venture... Let me know. MUST BE LEVEL HEADED AND RESPECTFUL OF FUD SPREADERS

I invested a bit of time to help other crypto communities understand the matter. As you can imagine this is quite a heavy job. I ask you, the community, to do your part as well. As a first step, chime in here: https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/7nwzlp/looks_like_rripple_subreddit_is_heavily_moderated. Scan through and give some upvotes where necessary. Also feel free to provide useful comments in a polite way. Please do not feed the trolls though. There are also other subs and channels and topics and mediums where everybody has to stand up for the good. Please help the community thrive as a whole. IMO when everybody invests a little bit of time, we as a community and the vision Ripple is implementing is way better off. Thank you in advance. Just give me a "done" in the comments if you did the do.

I just want to share the invitation link to the cryptocommunity Slack group: https://crypto.typeform.com/to/ahJtmF. I am one of the four administrators of this community of about 650 people interested in crypto. The ripple-xrp channel has about 600 members at this time. If you have not used Slack before, it is like IRC 2.0. Channel, group, and direct messages can be sent to your inbox depending upon your notification settings, so if you join a few channels and do not wish to chat, you will still get some news every now an then in your inbox.

Hi everyone, I've been browsing these forums since this past May; however, I haven't decided to make an account until now. I have high hopes for the SWELL Conference and for both the short and long term future of Ripple as a company and for XRP as a cryptocurrency. I'm ecstatic and excited to join this community, and I hope that I'll be able to continue learning from you all while participating on these forums. Already, I've learned so much from the daily discussions and nuance that we delve into, and I'm enthusiastic to be a part of them myself. Here's to a bright future! To the moon!

Our community boasts a wide variety of skilled people. While we are waiting for Miguel & Co., perhaps, someone would be interested in making a report of our own? If you are interested: What points would you like the report to cover? What should the report have most - stats/chart, time-line of press releases vs price fluctuations, etc? Will you be interested to take part in writing it or just reading? Thought to post it in off-topic, but it's not exactly off-topic.
