Crypto is the separation of Power and State.
Transitive property. If A = B and B = C, then A = C.

If blockchains are decentralized databases

And Monero has the most advanced database

Then monero is the most advanced blockchain.

Performance branch for the win.

Is no one paying attention? Does anyone else notice that only monero is actively improving and developing its database machinery? THIS WHOLE TECHNOLOGY CENTERS ON A DATABASE!

I think everyone a bit worn out from the constant dumpage. Where the fuck do all those coins come from! It's tough to keep up the spirits when you see the market getting so manipulated and your holding for altruistic reasons.

I hear ya. I guess botnet miners, I don't know... It is weird. Why dump at so cheap, unless panic?  Huh

A legitimate altcoin with truly disruptive tech like Monero is a threat to all the shitcoins with bad crypto and snake oil marketing.

Thus, we are all of their common enemy.  Plus, we goad them into attacking, to better our distribution and antifragility.   Grin

Insane jump right there, and the existing performance was already quite good. Fantastic work by warptangent and hyc!

DigixDAO - WTF is this? Is this just on the ethereum chain?

Yes it is allegedly gold-backed tokens on ethereum. Because backed tokens that ended up all being scams on their own blockchains become legit when you sprinkle magic ETH dust on them.

Also a token, on OMNI (mastercoin)

Random analysis / observation of the top coinmarketcap coins that I could find info on.

Note - the  data with the "nodes all/active" format are all pulled from
https://bitinfocharts.com/

Number of nodes:

Bitcoin: 6517 NODES
https://bitnodes.21.co/
Nodes all/active   41871 / 6795

Ethereum: 5956
https://www.ethernodes.org/network/1

Litecoin: Nodes all/active   5609 / 846

Ripple - unknown

Dash: 3772 (masternodes)
http://178.254.23.111/~pub/masternode_count.png
Nodes all/active   5885 / 4110

DigixDAO - WTF is this? Is this just on the ethereum chain?

Doge: Nodes all/active   2979 / 609

MaidSafeCoin, unknown

NEM: 141 (full nodes)
http://nemnodes.org/

Peercoin
Nodes all/active   942 / 250

Bitshares: unknown

Monero: 169 live count
https://monerohash.com/nodes-distribution.html
153 "high availability" nodes
318 "full nodes seen last week"
http://moneronodes.i2p.xyz/



I guess its still just early yet.... it could also be interesting to do an analysis on market cap / node count. Ultimately, i just find it crazy to think that there are, at a minimum, 169 people that have monero nodes running, and at a maximum, 318.

Suffice it to say, if you are following Monero, are interested in Monero, hold any Monero, do what you can to get a node running, somehow.

Could you also make an overview with unique posters and ranks? That is, how many unique legendary members have posted in the thread, how many unique hero members have posted in the thread etc.

For the XMR ANN thread:
Code:
User class                     number of unique posters
Full Member                      382
Hero Member                      338
Jr. Member                       217
Legendary                        105
Member                           322
Newbie                           361
Sr. Member                       353
Staff                              2
aka instacash                      1

Something borked on instacalm aka instacash, but would rather not run whole script again (this was just done from the output file). Staff posts are Lauda and EAL.

Thanks for sharing! I am actually quite positively surprised by these statistics. You would expect that there are way more newbie and junior members (trying to earn a quick buck) compared to hero and legendary. But this Monero tread is like an upside down piramide.

What could explain such a remarkable difference? Likely at first people join the forum for bitcoin, and then slowly realize that there is value in alternative technology as well? Or is it Monero specific because of it's complexity / really being different from bitcoin?

I am not browsing any other threads in this section of the forum, so excuse my ignorance if the answer is obvious.

I've run it on a few more threads, and even for younger coins you will see the majority of posts by at least senior and hero members. I haven't run it enough to really evaluate, but I get the sense the people posting on a thread for months/years will become senior/hero/legendary, and so that's where the majority of the posts will come from. Monero does seem to have bit higher percentage of legendary and hero than the other threads I ran, but again, small sample...

I guess it would be a fairer comparison to compare with other coins' threads that are ~2 years old with 1000+ pages.

Monero got to be the most boring coin of all. I don't know, there's just nothing exciting about it going on.
What do you guys find exciting about it, hands down?
