Didn't Ripple Labs create 100 bilion ripple at will?

Yeah ripple is a token not a currency they can generate new ripple at will but since the founder has a large stake he has an incentive to not flood the market. But ripple is not the future it's a stopgap running on centralized servers it's not revolutionary like etherium
Because the Ethereum people only created 80 million tokens out of thin air?
*ethereum
Someone is going to owe a lot of taxes?
