Also now that its "open source" are you able to mine it?
Being Open Source has nothing to do with mining, but if you want to use your computer to crunch numbers and get XRP, you can do that.
Go to
www.ComputingForGood.org and get started. One big difference is that when you trade computation for XRP, you aren't just generating heat like with Bitcoin mining. Instead, you are crunching results for scientific research (mostly AIDS and research).
I know that open source has nothing to do wit mining, I just forgot a ".". Do they have a GUI or is it just a pool sort of thing?
