@Zer0Sum. Do you think Augur can still be a success in 5 years time? If you do then where do they stand right now in their development? There are some people known in bitcoin that said that Ethereum's blockchain is growing too fast. Isnt that also a cause for concern?

Are the rumors true that one of the developers of Augur is having a mental breakdown? It was said that he was tweeting weird stuff saying that Ethereum is a Russian honey pot or something, and also that Vitalik controls Ethereum totally making the platform not ideal for dapps. Maybe that is what's making the price fall, that developer could be dumping right now.

You really know very little about Ethereum and Augur.

Ethereum was founded by a bunch of guys from Toronto that met at the Toronto Bitcoin Meetup circa 2013...
I was there at the Meetups... and anyone could have invested in the ETH launch at $0.30

And the Sztorc dude now associated with Hivemind...
Is an unhinged Bitcoin Maximalist who hasn't been able to get anywhere with his baby, Truthcoin.

At least Augur has a working beta, though I am unimpressed that this is the result of 18 months work...
And I see nothing that improves on Intrade circa 2004 + there will be LOTS of competition in this sector (Gnosis, etc)...
Lots of competition in a sector that has failed to gain traction with traders and gamblers in 15 years.

The jury is out until we see user numbers and betting volume...
Though the ace in the hole is novel applications like the ones floated by Robin Hanson.

@jacafbiz. Then it is obvious that Augur is going to fail then and become another irrelevant cryptocoin just like what is happening to NXT. Look at the market cap of NXT and their new, unreleased platform Ardor. They are both out of the top 20 in coinmarketcap.com.

Again LOL, another bottom seller, top buyer  Wink

Not a developer but the PR (I suppose), more info here: https://web.archive.org/web/20161118165909/https://twitter.com/TonySwish

Ok. It also has tweets of him apologizing for being paranoid and now he is saying that Ethereum is a good platform again. He must be having a mental breakdown and none of that is related to Augur's sell down in the market.

So I ask, what is causing the dump right now?

I doubt the mental breakdown story is true, I think he is concerned about the long impact Ethereum is going to have on their project if the platform continue in this route, since we all know trust is a guaranteed thing in prediction market to be successful.

Big question we needed to know from the dev team if why a sudden downfall showing coming from exchane any one here give us a possible cause which is legit aside from speculating that it might be the dev or some big bagholders dumping their shares?

Up 15% back to the .007 mark.
(Probably based on the news from yesterday.)

Can REP reach .008 or will we drop over the next day or two?

It is a trap, we all must be careful. There is a whale that is trying to pump it up but it is not really working. The probability of the price to go down below 6 mBTC could be higher than for it to go up above 7 mBTC. Everyone is interested in bitcoins right now, not altcoins.

I bought a couple REP when it dropped to just above 0.007
I would have bought more but I was scared it was going to drop like Factom did and end up in the 0.002 to 0.003 range.

Augur is really interesting and may end up doing well, but it seems to be riding the Ethereum hype train right now.
If Eth falls in price and popularity I wonder how much this would affect Augur and the price of REP.

I'm waiting the launch of the platform, only with the platf. the price can go up.

That's not necessarily true.  The platform could have bugs, might be delayed yet again or might not even get as much users as anticipated.  I guess there could be a pump from speculators, but that would be it mostly at best.  Just like most of the other altcoin platforms and projects.


Speculation 'was implied'  Tongue.
