No comments on today's 80% increase in difficulty ? Botnets are raping monero big time ...
Last time we were at 21.28 MH/sec was when the price was in the 004x range..

These guys dont care about the price, they will dump whatever the market is paying... More efficient GPU miner would help..

It's now winter in the northern hemisphere, where crypto is most popular.

People are occasionally subsidized privately or by their gov't to keep warehouses warm .. likely this is a result of some entrepreneur into that area.

Offsetting heating costs with Monero, or any other mineable coin .. might not be just a botnet, when it could just be someone weighing the costs between paying for likely gas heating flat out, or electrical heating that has the possibility to be offset with mineable crypto.

Likely, they will be dumping at whatever cost though, so as far as that goes .. I'd expect to see little to no holding.

Maybe I'll be surprised though.

I have a couple of nice, short (xmr.) domains.
Would like the idea to use them. I don't need to earn, just to make something that can be good for this coin.
So, domain + hosting = I have. Idea = I don't and would like suggestion(s).
I am good in php and SQL. OK with javascript too.
I know it's not much of knowledge, but that I can offer.

Tipbot?

Buy walls mean nothing particularly with xmr, the order book often jumps between ~70 and ~200 btc. I certainly wouldnt be making trades based on that.

Good question. There have been similar fluctuations in the past but this is a big one. Let's see what happens over the next day or two.

Buy walls are not per se a good thing.

Usually they are an indicator of extreme speculation (in the direction of short selling).

yeah, I've got my head in this "finding an application" component.

I recently came up with the LendWallet / Decentralized Autonomous Lending Protocol, but this requires a blockchain-ledger that is ultimately traceable... although perhaps it can still be done with the more anonymous ledger of monero. I posted version 1.0 of what I guess you could call a whitepaper (it was a powerpoint), but it had some typos and the lack of understanding by the few responders indicated I need to flesh it out more, which I plan on doing this weekend... (in between overclocking some 771 xeons to hash some monero! those huge caches are great. I'll be checking the wattage on the wall tomorrow though. probably not great. I'll post it in that google doc thats floating out there)

Anyhoo, I'm rambling.

Or perhaps there's an audience for anonymous lending / borrowing. Whether or not I can code it is a different story. Well, its not a story. I can't code it. Period. Goddamned syntax and complex detailed construct retainment.

Hrm, I just came up with something..... and I'll just put it out there - not that I want monero to start with the same, hrmm.... how do you say...... color, as it were, that bitcoin started out with... but really it fits the bill.


What is one thing that people really want to keep hidden from others, in terms of transactions, etc?


Adult entertainment.


How many times do you think people have made it to a paywall at some ,,,, adult entertainment... site and been like "yeeeaaaahhhh, i'm definitely not going to put that on my credit card"


Of course, unfortunately, at this point in the game, even if there  was a "monero accepted here!" sign on the website.... or physical storefront, for that matter, you'd first have to buy some BTC from circle or whatever, then trade your BTC for monero, and then away you go.


Yes, I know - throw your tomatoes and boo me for suggesting an exploitation of our carnal pleasures, but there it is.


Hrm... what else we got....


I've also been trying to think of good applications for crypto in general.... its main strength is instantaneous, around the world payment. What possible good or service do you want to pay for thats coming from the other side of the world, that you would engage in a transaction with someone you may not trust? And for that matter, what can we do that actually adds to society? (in contrast to the above?)

One of the fascinating things that I've read about cc is the possibility that developing nations may use it to leapfrog development... this phenomenon was seen with cell phones - some countries without established phone lines and what have you just went straight to cell phones. So, what countries exist with limited currency infrastructures that could benefit from these currencies, and how could monero move in to be the one that is utilized? This kind of effort would require actual people going places to do stuff I think.

we badly need some explorer, chainradar is out there but there used to be a better one called monerochain.info and it disappeared a few months ago.

something nice with charts and stats like transactions per day, hash, difficulty, etc.

Agree 100%. I'm interested to see how Monero ecosystem will grow. Especially by developers outside core team. Price/value will increase when large audience jumps in and drives demand up. Until there are applications for large audience like MyMonero and REAL usage for the currency we are in mercy of investors and I don't see a reason why price would go up (besides speculation). At the same time current value is heavily discounted for the long term opportunity.

...It is also critical to privacy because otherwise miners can be in a position to start imposing requirements (such as identification) on transactions.


I don't quite understand this.

It is another way of saying that centralized miners can start to impose blacklists, whitelists, redlists, and other intrusive requirements on transactions.

Monero has things like ring signatures, stealth address, etc. to protect privacy and reduce censorship but this still relies on the miners to operate the network in a neutral manner. If they are concentrated enough, they can start imposing requirements.

Too much mixing? No "SafeChain approved" tag? Etc. Sorry, your transaction never gets into a block.


monero is supposed to be another one to fight against XCP but ,currently ,it seems to follow the downtrend resembling blackcoin.not very optimistic for the future.

Yeah, I'm aware of it. Just liked this coin so much, until those days when price gone so madly down.

We can't control the price and the price does not dictate the quality of the technology or people using it. In fact we are now seeing new people getting interested in the project. To them, the price is only now becoming attractive, and even relatively modest gains from here would be great. I know that probably isn't what you want to hear, if you have been around a while, as I have.

But no projects, like app's and market use of currency to make it spendable as a Bitcoin.

There are projects being worked on.

Something that make people want it. Somewhere to spend it. Not just buy and sell.

Agree!
