Mintpal chooses most voted every monday, so it happens if XMR keeps its #1 spot in the list.

Yeah but considering the extra coding that would go into adding a CN coin...?

This is a bit of an UGH factor for seeing it added to exchanges.  However it has been rightly speculated that:

1.  Mintpal wouldn't put it up were it not (getting) ready to add it.
2.  The money votes could hire a pretty good freelancer to do the work if they don't have time themselves.

I am not personally too concerned with Mintpal one way or the other.  I do want to see more market liquidity eventually.

Note the unconventional cAPITALIZATION!

Almost none of the failure modes of bitcoin apply to monero because the code base and algorithms and development teams are about as close to non-overlapping as you can get.
Also, they are best suited to distinct markets, bitcoin to the transparent instant global liquidity market, and monero to the dark instant global liquidity market.  
Monero is capable of fulfilling almost all use-cases for bitcoin qua currency.  If bitcoin fails, I imagine most of that usage would move to monero, if monero were the clear runner-up at that time.

I don't see it as a very efficient hedge right now, because speculative activity will correlate highly, but it is definitely a diversification in the portfolio-effect sense, and in some scenarios it could become a nearly perfect hedge.


Thanks.  I see monero the same way, and further it looks to me to be a front runner for several reasons in the space it is competing to inhabit.  And the space is inevitably going to be filled. That pandora's box of dark money was knocked on by bitcoin and something will force it all the way open, and fairly soon.

It's kind of fun to see what the current frontrunners in market cap or hype have in common.  GUIs for one.  More flash and buzz.  All while monero hides in the shadows saying "move along...  nothing to see here...".  It is poetic IMHO. Smiley

I'm getting the following errors with the daemon. The blockchain has synchronised but I just get this all the time now. Can anyone help?


Nothing to worry about:

^The bug is well known to developers and they'll fix it, but it's not a high priority now. Basically your daemon is flooding other pears (and your) connection and those pears are disconnecting you. When you see a few of those in a line and then they stop for a while it's fine, but when you see huge amount (obviously you are monitoring your daemon) your best option is to exit the daemon (use "exit" or "q" in order to save the blockchain first) and start it again. This way you'll stop flooding the other pears connection (and yours too).

Not a high priority now? So it's ok for pools to restart daemons several times a day initiating disconnects? I am silent about bandwidth usage.
Monero devs are working hard to address this and other problems with the code. This is a new technology and is not a bitcoin clone with all those issues already fixed. Stay calm and keep mining.

Great! Thanks. :-)

^You should do exactly what it tells you - start bitmonerod and wait it to sync. Then type refresh in your wallet.

How can I change the password on an encrypted wallet? Does this function even exist in cryptonote?

If you use the deterministic wallet, you can do so by restoring the wallet.

How different is monero to cloak other than cloak having a GUI ?
Cloak uses centralized mixing to achieve nothing, whereas XMR uses trustless ring signatures to achieve anonymity.

This is so notable, and yet lost on so many at the moment.

It seems like Cloakcoin is getting listed on Mintpal even though it isn't number 1 on thier list - Does this mean monero won't be listed yet ?

Sine secretum non libertas
Long term Monero price can be 200$ ore even more if Bitcoin keep rising.



If Bitcoin keeps rising the sky's the limit!

And if bitcoin falls, prepare for interstellar space.


Does this imply you think XMR to be the most likely used hedge against a falling BTC or are you just noodling around?

Almost none of the failure modes of bitcoin apply to monero because the code base and algorithms and development teams are about as close to non-overlapping as you can get.
Also, they are best suited to distinct markets, bitcoin to the transparent instant global liquidity market, and monero to the dark instant global liquidity market.

Does mintpal list coins that either get voted or PAY to be listed?? Does it list the 2nd coin on the list ?
