Hi Everyone,
I started working on ripple in the summer of 2011. I soon hired Arthur and David to help me. In 2012, I met Chris Larsen. He joined us about 5 months before ripple was launched. Chris, Arthur and I kept 20 billion XRP, of which 9 billion were mine. We gave the remaining 80 billion to OpenCoin.  
I have given away and donated some of my 9 billion XRP to charities such as MIRI, Literacy Bridge, Give Directly, Mission Bit and others. I plan to start selling all of my remaining XRP beginning in two weeks. Because I have immense respect for the community members and want to be transparent, I’m publicly announcing this before I start. So just fyi…. xrp sales incoming.
Thanks,
Jed.

I didn't want people to wonder if this was from me or not so I signed it with my public key which can be found and verified here: keybase.io/jed/key.asc

jed, so sorry to hear that. it looks like you are permanently breaking ties with ripple labs. i, for one, was hoping you would be back in the company taking the helm.

anyway, thanks for being transparent with us and good luck with your new BTC project.

and thanks for everything.

P.S. i hope this isn't a troll, because i would look like a total idiot in front of eveyone. :D

How can all this be verified? Besides of course that if its true price will totally collapse

Of course. ;-)

Wish I had the skills to contribute to future projects (heavy sigh).

And I guess when the Eagle sh.ts (monthly military pension check) on the 1st, I'll be doing a little more?...

Cheers,

What a way to wake up :(

But at last I managed get my XRP sold. Hard to get them sold via Ripple wallet. Transfered them and sold them to a fair price at Justcoin where people doesn't yet seem to know about Jed selling...

Not funny, but a fine gesture by Jed to tell us first. Thanks Jed!

What's the problem? Won't change the technology. OK one lesser (smaller) option to fund operations for RL But then what? Setting up Ripple for FIs, Fidor being first but for sure not last, will generate more than enough revenues on services. And once Ripple is taking of, those 9B will be just a bit more then a ripple in the ocean... I think it will rather turn out as an extended chance for those who want to invest in the next big thing. That's not a problem. That's an opportunity. And not only for the investment. It will prevent Ripple from the same Bitcoin mistakes and will keep them a lot more focused on development of the technology. Valuation and value storage will follow, with or without this sell off. The only loosing here will be short term XRP-investors (including Jed), not Ripple or RL ...

When i go here: https://keybase.io/verify and paste his comment I get:  Error: hash mismatch

 

Can any one confirm it is checked and verified?

9e,

posted the message and the link of this thread in the official forum where people can verify if the PGP key is indeed Jed's.

I saw that too.  I'm always skeptical until there is concrete proof.

Which gateway are you selling your XRPs from?

I'm asking because If I try to get it from sites like rippleunion there's a big markup

hmmmm... the fact that Jed posted this message here and not at the official forum looks like Jed has a score to settle vs. RL.

https://keybase.io/jed

The poster (doubt it's Jed) is referring to this person. Seems a bit aged  :)

To be honest I can't remember Jed ever using an identity not exposing his own picture.
