Guest Haydentiff Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Sorry to get off topic, but do you happen to know if R3 finished their funding round? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmbartley Posted January 18, 2017 Author Share Posted January 18, 2017 There was news about them coming closer with an announcement coming soon. Last I heard, tgey expect to hut their $150M funding goal. They mentioned Stellar, but not Ripple in this blog post. I'm guessing that was intentional...

thinlyspread Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Wow, really thorough article. Thanks for sharing – great read, most gloss over details like this. The financial system is bloody complex! Way more than most people realise. They just think it's "derp-derp print money derp", "banks evil derp". So I admittedly lol'd at the dig at conspiracy theorists (libertarians?!) re: fractional reserve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(yes, I'm paranoid) Yeah I noticed this – I thought it's because of the way the validator nodes work in Stellar vs Ripple? Or maybe some legal reason as to why Stellar could fulfill the role and Ripple (as a private entity for example) could not. But I'm not sure.
