the shock of what ripple turned out to be was too much for me I guess..
Zero Reserve is not Ripple and cannot be. There are no f***ing strings attached. The code is 100% OpenSource. There is no special entity in the ZR network.
There is no ZeroReserve Ltd. This is a communitiy thing, but so far without community. There is money to be made with ZR, too, but like with Bitcoin mining, anyone can. There is even an early adopter effect.
It will gain more momentum when people actually play with the code.
The code is
there to play with. It's quite easy to install. And for Windows users, there is even a install wizard.

This one will have, and has to have, an even stronger network effect than Bitcoin itself.
Network effect is indeed the key word.
Thank you for what you are contributing to this world.
So far I haven't contributed anything, because so far, there are no takers.
Should the test run fail due to lacking participation, I will take that as a vote against truly distributed, OpenSource Exchanges and for the control of Bitcoin through the corporate state. Consequently, I'll withdraw.
