I ask readers to embrace newcomers with patience. Put yourself in the position of one who never followed altcoins and never wanted anything to do with altcoins. Learning about the Cryptonote family alone and its long, varied history is almost overwhelming.
I tried to provide an useful comparison/explanation on the state of anon coins. I hope you'll have as much pleasure reading as I had writing it.

U guys should be trying to compare Monero to DogeCoinDark not DarkCoin AnonCoin or ShadowCash as atm DogeCoinDark is the only truly untraceable/anonymous while these others are pure PR scam. Someone in the RieCoin thread tried to prove otherwise put in the end left the conversation and lost face. Anyway I think Monero is a cool project and speculation/ bad rumors is what hurt Monero has nothing to do with the coin itself.

Sums this up:

why Monero withdraw disabled on Bittrex?

Edit: working now
Edit: working now
https://bittrex.com/Status shows 0 connections between XMR daemon and network, so sticking onto block height 331088
There is some technical issue. BBR coin same problem.

Check their twitter feed. They had some kind of database problem recently, and are apparently still in the process of recovering (no recent update).

It would be nice if XMR was adopted by Shapeshift Lens. Someone who knows a dev go tap them on the shoulder.

I asked them to support XMR a couple weeks ago and they said keep an eye out. Could happen soon I think.

Marketing is more then needed. Not now, it's yesterday!

So do it. This is a volunteer community project, not a company. The developer team is paid nothing and has no stash of premine or IPO money to spend on marketing or anything else.

Bitcoin was built on the backs of people who went out there and spread the word, not by some promoter spending money on slick web sites and other vehicles to try to sell you something. Monero is the same. We have a few people doing this, but more are always needed.

WTF with the price?

Major support at 150000 satoshis pulled.

Monero is behind BitcoinDark in market cap. Check www.coinmarketcap.com

Behind in price does not equal being behind.

It's still good to look at to keep us honest, though, regardless of whatever we *think* our long term fundamental advantages are. Monero definitely has a perception problem from many investors' points of view at the moment.
I can understand your sentiment, but I ask:

How can you single-handedly perceive that many investors' points of view reflect a problem with Monero's perception?

Simply because we know that big money is flowing into various cryptocurrency projects right now, and they just aren't choosing Monero.

the only "altcoin" getting serious amounts of money is counterparty and maybe the at this point non-existent ethereum. they handle completely different markets.

I do not know if monero will fly in the future but the mixture of the biggest existent niche, a competent development team, a healthy community with tons of early bitcoin adopters is probably not the worst point to start.

Still wild and free
I think it's best to wait with marketing before we have all core features implemented and working.

I wonder if it's not overoptimistic: it seems we expect people to flock en masse just because "some marketing"...
The marketing that is synonym to education to a larger community shouldn't be increased by now?

Do you mean the SuperNET etc? Or could you give examples? I think it's best to wait with marketing before we have all core features implemented and working.

Or is it maybe login key (word sequence) enough to recover whole wallet ? Can I start simplewallet with those as starting arguments?

In theory the login (seed words) should be enough to recover the whole wallet (once the shorter seed format is fixed), but printing out the whole page and storing it in a safe place is a good idea anyway.



Just be sure to properly dispose of printers with HDD.

Hi guys - just a quick update, we had the Missive up earlier on forum.monero.cc, but pulled it down because of a breaking bug in the Windows 0.8.8.5 builds (OS X, Linux, and FreeBSD are all fine). We're diagnosing and fixing, and will be putting it back up as soon as it's fixed:)

Dark and Monero arent enemies

They are, however, competitors for dominance of the most defensible liquidity niche in all of crypto.  Liquidity points to drk.  Security points to xmr.

bitcoinwisdom shows a similar volume for both, so i wouldnt say drk is more liquid than xmr
Correct.

I don't care much about price at the moment. XMR is not a pump and dump coin. Short-term high price solves nothing. What I care about is development. At least for now. I haven't sold any coin that I mined
