My history of Ripple continues through the years of 2014-2016; It covers the dramatic news stories you may have heard about, Ripple's steady progress in development, their pivot away from Codius, and the birth of Interledger. The controversial topics like XRP allocation and organization shake-ups are not ignored; read through it and provide your own perspective if you were around (in crypto land) during that time frame. Of course, extra points if you work (or previously worked) for Ripple! Hope you enjoy! Please leave any feedback below.

In celebration of March Madness XRPChat will be hosting a month long quiz fest March 5-30! Each week on Monday- Friday a new quiz will be posted here and on this site, results will be tallied on Saturday Quiz answers and results will be posted on XRPChat and on this site every Sunday from the previous week Each weeks quiz will be themed to offer something to everyone To get started the first week will feature some fairly simple questions about a few top forum members; the second week is Ripple related trivia; the third week a intro to cryptography/ codes and forth week is TBA. Each question will show the number of points available for a correct answer with three bonus points for the first person, two for the second and one for the third. Even if it is a day or more late go ahead and submit an answer as long as its prior to Saturday as all points will be calculated for a end of the month CHAMPION. Answers can be submitted wither via a posted google forms (email is required) or via PM.

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.

Would a XRPChat app for either iOS or Android interest anyone? I know I'd like one

A short question for all the XRP-Chat Alumni... Is there an obvious way to track the growth of members on this forum? I am on Reddit Ripple and I have seen phenomenal growth in the amount of subscribers to that particular Reddit and I was wondering if such a feature existed to track the user growth on XRP Chat 'The Largest Unofficial Ripple Forum' I would be intrigued to see how the numbers grew recently following our Bullish Festive Period! #XRPtheStandard

One thing I've noticed about crypto-currency enthusiasts: They want to help their coin of choice. Whether you're a code tinkerer or a pure business entrepreneur, you can contribute to XRP adoption and promotion. In my latest blog entry, I describe what people are currently doing to help promote XRP and dive into choices you might consider fun... and perhaps a good fit for your own strengths. Hope you enjoy the read & please leave any feedback below. Also, please feel free to share & thank you for doing so!

Ripple XRP is showing at .92 cents right now on Coinmarket cap but only .81.82 cents on Kraken which is typically consistently behind Coinmarket only .03-.03 1/2 cents. Just figured I would share as something could be stirring but what might that be :), I'd love to hear your thoughts. @Hodor

Anybody have a good forum reader that can recognize and work well with the xrpchat groups? I have tried the free version of tapatalk and I feel like its hit and miss. Sometimes it loads new content othertimes no and I cant manually go to the trading and speculation group because its a club even though I am joined.

http://www.livebitcoinnews.com/xrp-ripple-can-succeed-together/ A nice write up that can be used to combat the FUD

Another nice Prediction about Ripple(XRP) : https://www.tradingview.com/chart/XRPUSDT/5WlGGtAJ-It-Won-t-Be-Long-Now/

In "The Big Short", Christian Bale plays a near-autistic eccentric trader who bucked the trends of the prevailing market sentiment. Only a minority of traders in the housing bubble were astute enough to recognize a unique opportunity in the midst of a developing crisis, and they placed their bets accordingly. Along the way, they had to "keep the faith" in the face of jeers from their own investors. When they faced their biggest moments of self-doubt, how did they respond? They doubled down. They increased their position - not from a standpoint of ego - but because they believed in the lessons of history and the accuracy of their mathematical analysis. XRP Chat Does this remind you of our forum? We debate the numbers constantly. We discuss use cases. We calculate the utility of our preferred cryptocurrency, XRP, not in the millions or even billions, but in the trillions and quadrillions of possible fiat flow through the network. Our group differs from other crypto-coin fan bases, in that our product is based on sound value and science, and will unquestioningly lead to banks and financial institutions saving massive amounts of money, all while providing instantaneous payments for customers, where those same transfers used to take days. We calculate the odds and future together, arguing with our viewpoints, observations, and logic, and often with our egos on full display. The Big Short was based on real life, because often history is stranger than fiction. Brad Pitt, Steve Carell, Ryan Gosling, and Christian Bale breathed life into the movie, and portrayed how intense the story became for the big trading houses. Ripple's rise is even more striking; the new innovator contrasting with the prevailing thinking that Bitcoin cannot be unseated from the throne. Our Story Yes, there is much drama in crypto, and cryptocurrency investors are still very much a minority; If you think about what's happened with Ripple, it is something where we look at each other and say "we couldn't make this stuff up!" Think about what's happened since 2013, and tell me if this doesn't have the makings for a Hollywood movie: A Silicon Valley Start-Up Crypto-currency Hatred and Lies from Competitors A Wealthy Heir Angel Investor (source: http://pagesix.com/2017/06/04/matthew-mellons-ripple-investment-is-paying-off/ ) A Feud and Lawsuit Against a Company Founder (source: http://www.coindesk.com/ripple-jed-mccaleb-settle-suit-over-1-million-in-disputed-funds/) And now... the shining moments that have arrived in 2017. RCL is updated to support ILP (source: http://www.econotimes.com/Ripple-announces-new-features-bringing-transaction-throughput-to-Visa-levels-622104) 47 banks form a consortium to use the RCL and Ripple Technology (source: http://www.cnbc.com/2017/03/01/japanese-banks-plan-to-adopt-blockchain-for-payments.html ) 15 new exchanges directly trade XRP against other currencies in the space of 6 weeks (source: https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:9MNVeFv7QywJ https://coinreport.net/xrp-listed-six-exchanges/+&cd=2&hl=it&ct=clnk&gl=it https://cointelegraph.com/press-releases/blockchain-exchange-bitsane-introduces-ripple-trading-at-consensus-2017 https://ripple.com/insights/news/xrp-liquidity-to-deepen-with-listings-on-six-new-exchanges/) Central Banks BOE trials ILP with Ripple (source: http://www.bankingtech.com/775302/bank-of-england-teams-with-ripple-for-cross-border-payments/) Ripple Gets a Seat on the IMF Advisory Board (source: http://www.imf.org/en/News/Articles/2017/03/15/pr1784-imf-managing-director-welcomes-establishment-of-high-level-advisory-group-on-fintech) The price of XRP climbs to new heights (source: http://www.cnbc.com/2017/05/26/bitcoin-rival-ripple-is-sitting-on-many-billions-of-dollars-of-xrp.html) Liquidity Pouring into the Ecosystem at increasing rates (https://xrpcharts.ripple.com/#/history) Fortify your knowledge and believe in your investment; you'll be able buy some popcorn and say "Yes! I was there when this went down!" Even now in 2017, only a small number of people have the patience to learn how to overcome the barriers to entry and invest at the stage of early adoption in the innovation life cycle. And yet still here we are, investing early. And believe me, it's still early... And now there's nothing holding XRP back from ascending to it's deserved spot at #1. Just keep in mind that when XRP takes #1, it might happen much faster than you anticipated. Make sure you have your positions ready! ############################################################ DISCLAIMERS: THIS IS NOT INVESTING ADVICE ALWAYS TO YOUR OWN RESEARCH AND VERIFY FACTS I AM NOT A PROFESSIONAL FINANCIAL ANALYST OF ANY KIND DO NOT TRADE ANY CRYPTO WITH LEVERAGE I AM BAD AT MAKING PREDICTIONS ############################################################

I thought it necessary to address a pervasive misconception that I've noticed in multiple threads. It's an annoying and pervasive rumor, and it goes something like this: XRP Potential Investor: "I heard that Ripple (the company) wants a low price for XRP because banks don't like volatility or high prices for digital assets." XRPChat Member: "But that's not true! Ripple has posted many times about how XRP is central to their own financial well-being and self-interest. It doesn't make any logical sense. And they have volatility-lessening services in place for banks, according to Stefan Thomas." (source: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/ripple-and-xrp-are-more-stable-than-you-think_us_591cb3bee4b0b28a33f62915) How You Can Counter the FUD Does Ripple Really Want a High Price for XRP? Absolutely. The mathematics are straight-forward for them. In addition to promoting the usage of volatility-lessening services for banks during intermediary trades involving XRP, the higher the price of XRP is, the cheaper the cost of the trade for the Financial Institution. You heard me right, so let me repeat it again: The higher the price of XRP, the cheaper the transaction cost! When we talk with new potential investors in XRP, its important that we all carry this message consistently and clearly to counter the FUD out there... wherever it is - Reddit, Facebook, Twitter, XRPChat itself, or in person. If we keep at it, the message will eventually get through about XRP! By the way: For those interested or who haven't read it yet, in "Part 1" of this thread, I talked about the owner and original employee's XRP personal holdings, the XRP lockup, and some other topics. That thread can be found here:

I've decided to start a Dutch community also... not sure if people like it here but I think for tutorials, explanation etc this is a perfect addon http://xrpchat.nl/index.php

The site needs more moderators to keep up with the current traffic. If you are interested, send me a direct message. Duties include moving topics, deleting spam and maintaining the zerpbox. Ideally your account will be over a year old and have +500 reputation. Good luck and thanks!
