Re: Opinion: Why Ripple/XRP Doubled In Value in Less Than A Week
It is a bit saddening that it is still quite hard to have an actual discussion about Ripple on Bitcointalk without having to explain fundamentals (and threads getting derailed or at least trolled)...Unfortunately it's hard to talk about the more exciting ones, as a lot of people around here seem to be more fixed upon the idea of Platform == Currency (which doesn't even really apply to Bitcoin). 
I thought things might have changed around here after my hiatus but it seems the same as ever. It really is a shame that there isn't a good neutral place to have mature discussions (except for xrptalk.org, which is closing).
maybe you should understand that if you would be pumping another random heavily premined, centralised, trust based scamcoin you would also meet resistance. All scamcoins need to go on their extra forum to not be torn apart. Ripple is no exception. It's not a shame there is no place to discuss it because it's expandable.
It's the perfect example of what most people want not. So why try to shove it down their throat? Why cry if people don't want it shoved down their throat? The xrp-spam around here is pretty annoying.
Speculation on xrp is really idiotic.
