do you guys really think ripple going to be big? There is a company behind this and thats unlike bitcoin, is it?

There are lots of companies behind Bitcoin. Mt Gox, for example, has a huge incentive to see Bitcoin adoption grow.

Could be, couldn't be who knows. The way I look at it, is it's free to join and pursue, so why not? Do you want an invite code?

What?!

I am very skeptical about Ripple, the difference is that the company OpenCoin owns the supply of it. They are giving them away on this forum to try to enter the market that has been created by Bitcoin. You need to be able to trust OpenCoin if you are going to store your wealth in Ripples. How does one trust an corporation that is designed to make it's investor's wealthy?

No central entity owns the supply of Bitcoin.
