I'm certain he thinks jl777 is the founder of the Ripple based insurance startup 'PeerCover', which I know is false.
Yeah, sure he isn't.

I'll bet you 25 btc jl777 is not Jared Mimms. We can use a recognised and trusted escrow.
I would love to take your money, and I bet you'd love to take mine.
If you're sure jl777="Jared Mimms" and you can prove that, take the bet.
How do you know? Do you know who jl777 is?
Here are jl777's Ripple forum posts -
https://forum.ripple.com/search.php?author_id=11690&sr=postsIf you can scan them quickly you'll see that in December 2013 jl777 was trying to start and promote a ripple gateway issuing alt coin IOU's. You'll see that jl777 started discussing NXT, and was trying to use Ripple as a competitor to DGEX, which at the time was the only NXT exchange available. The Ripple mods didn't like jl777 'promoting' NXT, so they asked him to stop, so he left Ripple and moved to NXT.
The connection with Jared Mimms is PeerCover had already setup an automated gateway, and jl777 convinced them to start issuing NXT based IOU's through the PeerCover gateway. See below
I have sparked some interest in the NXT community to use ripple via peercover. I have been invited to start a peercover thread to support ripple newbies, but I don't have the time to be able to handle each ripple newbie question.
Would anybody like to help me with this? I got over a dozen new ripplers in a day and there seems to be a fair amount of interest due to the few NXT exchanges having one problem or another.
With a little help, we can get people to see ripple as a cool solution.

I had communication with both Jared Mimms and jl777 during this time. They are two separate people. I shouldn't say too much more otherwise I wont get a chance to take 2kewl4skool's money
@2kewl4skool, take the bet, or are you backing down?
