[–] splintercell 12y ago ↗ Ripple sounds like a terrible idea. As some people aptly named it as Keynescoin.I believe Mastercoin and Coloredcoins are Ripple-style ledger on Bitcoin network technologies.
[–] theboywho 12y ago ↗ The title is misleading, the transfer only used Ripple as a medium of exchange and didn't use the Ripple currency XPR (called Ripples)Ripple is currency agnostic.
