Hey guys, I'm building a BTC based website and it was suggested that I also accept XMR/Monero. I currently don't have the time to research the coin myself right now, so can anyone give me the 30 second pitch on why I should add XMR/Monero to my site?

I sent 400XMR more.
How do you make that much? 
January 07, 2015, 05:35:07 AM
I donated 100 XMR.

Awesome missive guys. Lovely team <3 
The historical review is great to introduce new people to Monero too.
Regarding Atrides's freebazar: I will increase my donation amount significantly right now, I invite everybody who already donated to do the same if they can, and everybody who didn't to contribute a bit. Atrides seem capable and motivated, it's a pity to fail on this goal. Whether you believe the freebazar project is absolutely relevant or not, it's a nice way to increase momentum around Monero.

Good point. I'm doubling my donation.

I will add it to the ToDo list however and see about getting something going. Has anyone developed any web api's yet? Something like https://blockchain.info/q or https://blockchain.info/api/api_receive
Something like the query API used to be supported by monerochain.info but that site disappeared.
A version of the receive API is a good idea.
What sort of site are you building?

I think you should read this today's post: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.10062838
Might take a bit more than 30sec though.
That does sound like some great work by the devs, however nothing really screamed I need to implement XMR into my site.
Of course you don't need to do anything, including BTC. It's all about opportunity.

Rough Dirty - Truly anonymous, unlike Bitcoin. Excellent development team and community behind it.

Awesome! Reinforces my decision to point my miners at the dev address...
Please continue to do that especially if you are able to solo mine with a full node. Not only do you support the project, but you keep the network strong and help decentralize mining.
EDIT: and think you for your support!
Soon I'll get my own full node up.... once the new database is going. I'm running miners on these old 771 - 775 xeon hacked boards with 2 gigs ram. But I'm pooled on monerohash.com. That pool is pumpin 3.97 kh with 6 miners... so yeah, spreadin the hash!

That website is coming together nicely.

Thank you! I have a lot of "stub" pages at present, but I'm slowly-but-surely fleshing them out.
Monero is still in its infancy, but when it starts walking, we're going to want some solid documentation. I hope I'm able to provide that.

Awesome! Reinforces my decision to point my miners at the dev address... even as monero seems to be decoupling a little bit from bitcoin
Amazing work. Glad I stumbled into monero when I did!
