Let me start of by saying the page with the smiley faces was awesome. It was refreshing, actually.
So as I stated yesterday, someone/some people are driving the price down and it makes no sense to me if this is driven by XLB members. Why would anyone want to dump when coin and community are taking shape? The sell walls are strategically placed (smaller increments totalling 8-12 sells) to drive it down once buys push it up to the 5K/6K SAT, I know because I tested it yesterday afternoon and as I kept buying, an unleash of sells would follow, fluctuations are 500 SAT. Systematic and malicious to me so it's dolphins shaking weak holders or members from another community/coin deliberately doing this. And if it's inexperienced miners who want a quick buck, then I say get a little more experience and that will pass and so will downtrend.
So here's my general message to those malicious speculators-I'm not worried as I'm currently spread (and generously) across assorted ALTS that are very active but I've taken an oath, in principal, to allocate my efforts and resources to XLB and BC, for now. If the culprits/affiliates who are behind this come to light and they are within a specific community, I will direct my resources to dump, due to heinous actions of a rotten few, methodically and damagingly as I will not be inclined to such behavior. If it's a member, I will resort to troll tactics and smear the crap out of you, until you don't want to log back in to BitcoinTalk, and I'm persistent.
Remember, if you want to play ball in XLB, you'll have to pay more each and every time you play. Maybe not now, but soon.
No assumptions or no saber-rattling, just throwing it out there for the children.
I hear you. This is not just a problem with XLB, but one I am seeing more and more with all of the "younger" coins. To me, it looks like selling bots because the sells are placed like 10% below each other - which only makes sense if you are trying to drive the price down.
