Remember before Dash mooned 500 masternodes disappeared?
no. pretty new in this... I've been a Bitcoin hodler for two years now, and only in january heard about monero through the coinbase thing in January. Have been strong on Monero since though. Still, I find it surprising more people aren't seeing the benefits of the coin.

It is not ready for mass adoption yet. We understand that this is a currency not a speculation tool and therefore know that when rolled out to the masses the system needs to be polished enough for the average user. that is just good business. Staying above the P&D scam coins is essential for the coins credibility when it finally can be rolled out. There are no credible accusations against XMR, the closest thing to that is fluffy's poor choice of a troll which doesn't amount to a hill of beans in the end. Compare that to the other top 10 coins and you will see why this is important for the future adoption as a actual functional currency. Most alts are nothing more than speculation bubbles, XMR is different and the price does reflect that, just look at the increase when the DM's adopted XMR and the fact since AB disappeared the value has been tapering off. As soon as the adoption rate increases again for use cases and not bag holding them we will see a nice steady increase again. I'm not sure about seeing another spike though. Did that answer your question?

Still waiting for someone to point out how many coins are in what wallets ... now unlinkability is only one fundamental of all the secret gems monero has... what useful is it if you can predict outputs but your not able to tell even to which adress it went, thanks to stealth adresses or how much is in said adress.
true. so basically for all practical purposes Monero would be the perfect place to store value in right? what's holding it back? why are more people (ie. marketcap) on dash than monero?

Without a premine it is tough to manipulate the market as these other coins do. Remember before Dash mooned 500 masternodes disappeared? Well we know what they were used for now don't we? A lot of us were even pointing it out right off the bat.

Many coins locked in masternodes, Devs got a huge premine, so just a few dash on the market.

oh, wow. didn't even know about this. and I almost fell for the troll... thanks for clearing it up. After reading the MRL report I can see how this was just FUD.

Monero still king Cheesy

EDIT: also, if you were even concerned by this linkability, wouldn't having 3 wallets reduce this potential linkability to basically near zero? 20% of 20% of 20% = 0,8%... right?

Hey is today a dead cat jump day?
I think it could be.
Im worried by the fact AlphaBay is down, knowing that XMR being used in there it was a key factor that drove the price high almost a year ago, whats going to happen now? Back to 5$ soon?

Thanks
soon

Moneros privacy/anonymity has been compromised for some time now. I'm surprised it even got this high knowing it's no longer safe to use.

FUD from well known Troll.


Yea sure all fud... look here for a nice blockchain analysis.... monerolink.com
Oh wait isn't that supposed to be impossible? Hmmm....

Nice web site. Very clever how their dataset ends just as the current version of the protocol (not susceptible to the methods at all) begins, and how they make no effort to explain how the effectiveness of these methods (when they worked at all) was plummeting since early 2016 (as documented in their paper).

Weak trolling, mate.

1. Who knows how to autostart monerod in Ubuntu 16.04?
2. Why so trivial option turns into pain in the ass?
