Official BGOL Crypto Currency Thread ★★★★★

This is what I did.

I went to https://rippex.net/#/ and downloaded a Desktop Wallet
you will have to use Google Chrome cause the site is in Portuguese and needs to be translated

Once you downloaded and unzipped the Wallet...Click on the exe to install

Once installed and account is made copy your Wallet Address & Secret Key (Important)

Wallet will not be active yet

Go to https://changelly.com/ Make an account

Purchase $50 of XRP direct it to your Desktop Wallet's address

You may need to call your bank to allow a purchase from site

You will need to confirm and verify a few things with Changelly before the purchase goes through
Once everything goes through you will see the Ripple in your desktop wallet


Also, they say you have to wait 4 days before another transaction. I got a call from them for verification.
 
Someone fill me in on what I'm missing. This is a digital currency for banks to use amongst each other, not in any outside market. How is this going to go to anything more than equaling a dollar for dollar currency, assuming all major banks adopt this?

Whats there not to understand. If you buy a stock at $.10 and in 5 months, it becomes $20, you've made money. Now imagine buying 100,000 shares of that $0.10 stock. This is what we're trying to do here.

I did these exact steps and had no issue up until the process of my credit card; It wont go thru; I already verified everything with the card; but still something is fucked on changelly end; send them messages and waiting for a response back....

Did you ONLY buy $50 worth?
And call your Bank? The Bank stops it from going through
cause it's a foreign purchase
 
Are you getting an error message? Theres a chat popup on the bottom of the check out page...I used it and they called me right away.

man I live in nyc, I aint even try yet because from what I hear its not official in nyc yet....

If the card was declined then that's Visa or MasterCard
The Bank has nothing to do with Visa or MasterCard accepting the charge
THEY have to call them and tell Visa/MC to let the charge go through
and that usually takes an hour. Then you have to re-do the order

Try another card is the only advice I can give

Right, tell them you was making an out of country purchase and the transaction needs to be approved
They call Visa/MC and after that you wait for an hour and try purchase again
