I'm liking what I'm seeing with respect to Ripple and am hopeful that bitcoin and ripple will integrate nicely together soon.
I think Ripple is positioning itself to be a major player with whatever currency comes around. I am a little concerned about copycat cryptocurrencies and like bitcoins position given it's being the first...sorta like Amazon being the first big player to do what it does and despite it struggling at first.
Hope to be able to see this thing take off big time and be the future of things.
It's about time something came along that could give the current power brokers a run for their money.
