Tapped/Untapped has nothing to do with being Ready. Any controlled
vampire not in torpor is "Ready", so yes.

My group and I always considered this to be misworded card and played it
like the word ready was replaced with untapped. If a vampire had TC, then
it couldn't hunt and had to attack every round in order to fulfill it's
blood lust (therefore if it didn't attack an opponent, then it attacked
anybody near by).

No, it's worse. The idea is that TC is cursed and you're taking
the devil by the tail to use it. It gives a really nice advantage, but
the cost is dear.

able to hunt and preventing one damage doesn't help alot when they try to
kill off the minion holding TC.

The prevent one damage ability only applies in combat. You can
still do the 3 points of untap phase damage all to the minion holding
the TC.
