What rubbish. Do you think Ripple users are not programmers and BitCoin users?
That's exactly that I'm saying: that they're programmers. And also idiots. And also early Bitcoin users, who have been pushed out for their idiocy and are now looking for something small enough so they can continue stroking their idiocy rather than fix it. The good news is that indeed MP doesn't give a shit about Ripple, so you may continue the tardparty. Learn to read between the lines.
So there are 2 different kinds of BTC now? Don't be stupid, there is one BTC, and different people who say they will make good on IOUs for BTC. Bitstamp is one, TradeFortress is another.
Thus BitstampBTC and TradeFortressBTC Mr Clueless Programmer guy sir. Why is this so hard? Is it because you're trying to do finance stuff in BTC without having even heard of mystical magical stuff like say *the eurodollar*? Why do you think it's called EUROdollar (and if you go wikipedia that shit I'm going to punch you in the balls through the fucking monitor).
Stop imagining that if you can code you're worth two shits in the real world. Most of the time the reason you're a programmer IS BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT WORTH TWO SHITS IN THE REAL WORLD. Strictly. Strictly that.
Sure, some very talented people are programmers because that's what they chose for themselves. You're NOT THAT. You're the guy who wasn't good enough to sling dope.
