well, I see that bittrex holds XMR wallet (offline) - surprice! 
what exactly is going on?

We can all hope.

BCX stole it.

Not in my wallet - not on Bter = lost? 

Yeah, it looks like a horrible mistake for someone, spending around $1000 worth of Blackcoins to buy around 10 cents worth of Moneros.

This will happen more often in 2-3 years. The volume will also match.

Supposedly one person made a very small XMR/BC trade at a terrible price (probably by mistake) and that is messing up the data. They should really be using a volume-weighted price.

Damn, i was hoping it was just Polo that hadn't caught up yet

It looks like the coinmarketcap markets page for XMR is getting XMR/BC data from Bittrex right now, instead of XMR/BTC, which is messing up the average price, putting XMR at #2 on the main page: http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/monero/#markets

The XMR/BC data on Bittrex isn't even right (has a massive spike): https://bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BC-XMR

Edit: Looks to be fixed already.

It's not photoshopped - it's a flashforward to a possible reality. I took a screenshot too...

This isn't photoshopped.

Nice job, but I think you need to adjust your 24hr volume to the moon launch setting.

Nice one.  Hahaha......

XMR is the future.

An unimpressed BCX prepares to hyperfocus his latest invention - the Matriculate Flummoxulating Assburger Condensulator:

But Is It True?

Seriously though, this episode did not disappoint. When I read BullBear's reportage on the events I feel like reading the script to a Cold War spy movie.

James was nice to us and we should be nice to James.  That means a wrenching change from the empirically justified default prior assumption of altcoin scamminess, to a more generous stance, in which the default assumption is good will.  One might still be critical of the structure of James' enterprises (or not!) without any hostility to James.

Whereas you might have considered his advice "Invest at your own risk" in its context (or in its misleading out-of-context quotation) to be an inimical effort to poison the public mind and common knowledge against the virtues of Monero (in particular, as everyone loves and protects their children),  now, out of respect for his role in the BCX affair (such as it is) one should respect him well enough to attribute good will, and understand that in its original and intended context his words were simply sound advice to the naive investor.



BlackWidow, on the other hand -- and why not "BlockWidow", which would have been far more clever? --  has earned no such moral variance from rational estimation, and should be considered on par with the newbie bytecoin  shill/troll/shrills.


I know that it's all a lot of tedious drama, but having been chosen by providence and our choices to live through these experiences, let us at least draw from them the appropriate, empowering and uplifting lessons.

you went to the harshest, most demanding school.  yet failed to learn the correct lesson.

If bcx has a time machine, I think all coins are safe, because he has bigger fish to fry.  For....now.
