As a fellow newcomer to Monero, I welcome your views Cheesy

Many in the old guard are quite hurt now. They believed in Monero so much as to throw the risk management out of the window in investing.

Some stuff is progressing more slowly than anticipated and Bitcoin price is not at $5,000 as it "should" be. Wealth is decimated and feelings also.

A newcomer can now make incredible bargains. When I started in May, the price was between 0.002-0.010 and volumes were so small that acquiring a BTC100 stash took several weeks. At these prices, not only is BTC100 much less, also you get more XMR  Cheesy



as for you ,darkcoin can not be the rival of monero .i advise counterparty will do some fuss here .but,i still believe in monero

I ask readers to embrace newcomers with patience.

This.

There are a considerable amount of new posters here. This is new blood flowing into our community. This is proof monero is alive and well.

The old(and getting-old)timers are so dismayed about the price that we don't even care about price anymore. (Bring it on bitches  Tongue)

But, it's only natural for these new members to talk price. Everyone remembers what this and related threads were like when we went sub 20k.

Anyways,

I see no reason to ask you to stop posting.

Your comments have been substantive. As you say, you haven't always gotten everything right but you seem to be trying to understand the coin, both the good and the bad. Even negative views (and I'm not saying your views are overall negative) are welcome if they are thoughtful and not obnoxious.

Welcome, and please excuse the thick skin we can exhibit at times. All coins are attacked by shills and trolls and this one has been attacked very harshly and repeatedly. If you understand where we have come from, you can perhaps understand some of the impatience and frustration better. It isn't personal.

- This repeated price discussion (incl. negative interpretations) are always brought up from random accounts, outside of the XMR community or the small group of long-time trusted and respected altcoin posters/knowhow carrier/opinion leader.

- After reading like 10 posts from him. I figured out, that the account "jehst", is either doing some kind of advanced trolling (act) or is just a very bad poster.
Who is only able to produce stupid claims, wrong arguments, while showing no kind of intelligence, know-how or research (which leads to more unrelevant questions and statements, time wastement, misinformation of people, who try to learn and understand something in these threads, ...)

One way or another his account should be ignored by everybody. I add him now to my ignore list.



I disagree. I liked his fresh-eyes comments on Monero.
Anyway, no need to be so harsh in your words.

I've been involved in Monero for a short time so I don't know everything. What factually incorrect statements I've made have been redacted with the helpful guidance of others. I thank everyone for their patience and honesty.

If any one of the core devs asks me to stop posting, I will not post again in this thread.

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.

If you've been living and breathing alts for years, everything must be so much clearer.

Yeah, it's exactly like this. Many coins are attacked by paid trolls, so legit newcomers are treated badly. And this turns them away and the trolls achieve their objective in weakening a coin.

In the CryptoKingdom game, there are no trolls so everyone can just play without interruption. It's quite nice. I bet you could also get hooked if I gave you the starting capital 10 XMR, required to buy your first house!  Grin

I´ve got a picture! Haha!
Bought more Monero \o/

too bad I didn't buy yesterday when the price was lower

BTC confirmation took forever

still a great deal, though

I´d like to buy some more, as mining sucks (I run CPU miner on my i7 most of the day while working and during the night I also run GPU miner on R280x to keep my room heat) but Bittrex market is disabled ATM.. Anybody knows what is going on?

Any plans about some XMR marketing moves?
Price is still funny, and now it's already for a long time.
from ~2$ to ~0.5$  Undecided
the protocol of monero is obviously promising and the price will be at 0.0026BTC  in a short time.we trust it is the NO. 1 in anon fields.

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?

Right. If litecoin dropped 3 places, do you think it would climb back up? liquidity itself is a qualifying strength and loss of it is a weakness, whether the market is being rational or not.

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.

what is the difference in value between DRK's security/privacy as compared to XMR's?

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