Hear from @JoelKatz about the open source software powering Ripple and how the $XRP Ledger is decentralized ow.ly/e5JW30j6N0E

Iโ€™m glad banks arenโ€™t (openly) using it yet because I enjoy asking people โ€œwhich bank uses XRP?โ€ after they parrot โ€œitโ€™s a bank coin.โ€ Iโ€™m really that petty. ยฏ\_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

The entire code is in there including the code to start a new $XRP Ledger. From the command line, execute โ€œrippled --startโ€ and a brand new ledger is started. Thatโ€™s actually documented in the code and the online documentation provided by @Ripple. github.com/ripple/rippled teapawt.net/f0nta1n3/status/977959โ€ฆ
Replying to @haydentiff
Looking at the github it seems like just the daemon and other tools are open sourced. If the actual code that created ripple is not open sourced then why should we trust ripple the technology to be secure? IMHO this goes against everything crypto stands for.
Not a bad response to SWIFT's conslusions from their DLT proof-of-concept - definitely worth a look! @chewiecoin #xrparmy #xrp @xrptips @XRPTrump teapawt.net/chewiecoin/status/9780โ€ฆ
I think SWIFTโ€™s blockchain was different to Ripple (way behind) and still relied upon Nostro/Vostro accounts. Check out @OzAlphaWolf post 5th down on this thread itโ€™s an excellent answer to your question. Shout out to him for a great post. #xrp #ripple xrpchat.com/topic/21595-swifโ€ฆ

The CLOUD Act passed. It destroys privacy globally, so it had to be snuck into the $1.3 trillion omnibus without debate. Encrypt. Encrypt. Encrypt. Go Dark. When privacy is criminalized, only criminals have privacy. We got sold out, again.

Why do people think it's ok to make egregious claims without ANYTHING to back them up? It's slander. Here's the XRP Ledger's open source code, @jimmysong. Point to the part that allows @Ripple to reverse txns or "take away ripples." ripple.com/build/rippled-setโ€ฆ $XRP #xrpthestandard teapawt.net/DeusNero/status/977166โ€ฆ

People who fear freedom of choice HATE @Ripple Consensus. People who want the power to coerce others HATE @Ripple Consensus. All the $XRP Ledger does is decide which of 2 valid txns received at about the same time to put first. Protocol rules are deterministic, not arbitrary. teapawt.net/haydentiff/status/9772โ€ฆ
