monero price performing best since 1 year ago with over 80% increment

You dont need to go 1 year ago. Monero price went in less then a month from $44 to $74. That is close to 80%.



One of these days XMR will be the wake up call and be the slap behind BTC's head like how BTC was the wake up call for fiat and the slap behind its head.

There will be many small slaps. People need to use transparent ledger cryptocurrencies to notice how transparent their life has become.  I cant even speculate if we will see 10 million transaction a month on Monero blockchain in this decade. On one side it seems a lot, on other side things changes so fast that 10 years is almost eternity.

A year is a hell of long time in crypto, 10 years is way over the horizon.  That is a lot of what is exciting about it. Look ten years back?  Extrapolation ten years from now is easier than it was then, but still really hard...

EDIT: But it's a great thought - and no one would be happier than me to see Monero still here and flying every higher.

I treat Hardware wallets as my private keys. If I lose my Hardware wallet I will as fast as possible empty those wallets to new hardware wallet.  It is that simple.


                 Monero    Bitcoin         Ratio
Jan 2020    257,942   9,612,337   2.68%
Dec 2019   216,720   9,430,057   2.30%
Nov 2019   212,716   9,243,776   2.30%
Oct 2019   179,114   9,892,853   1.81%
Sep 2019   159,225   9,798,992   1.62%


Number of Monero transactions constantly and steadily increase from September while Bitcoins number is almost stable.  If we transplant the % rate into 0.0268BTC we are over $250.

One of these days XMR will be the wake up call and be the slap behind BTC's head like how BTC was the wake up call for fiat and the slap behind its head.

Right now let's play the 'XMR is a complement to BTC' game.

I know it is known Trezor T now fully supports Monero, but this short blog post adds a bit of background information to the whole process. Took more than a year to get developed and tested:

https://blog.trezor.io/trezor-model-t-is-fully-integrated-into-the-official-monero-client-b6f9bd31e7f

For fuck sakes, I just specifically bought a Ledger for XMR.

(Ledger blows vs Trezor)

Did you see this recent post:

People MUST use the simple password feature of BIP-38 BIP-39.  The ONLY reason i can think of for not using it is it gives you one more point of failure.  In this case you would forget your password.    Other than that it's kinda obviously important.

(I see this has been already broughtup.  But it's so important I think it can be here twice. Smiley

By the way, Monero wallets with the Ledger do support this feature.

Only worrisome if you are proned to physical attacks. Unless you are not confident where you live or transact with a Trezor on droid or something, then I wouldn’t worry about it. Or just use a BIP 39 passphrase

In the old days XMR always used to be last to pump, presumably because that's the final cash out.

True, it peaked in January 2018 after Bitcoin's 2017 top had started tumbling back down.

It was a great opportunity to get something out of the bubble after it had obviously popped, which fortunately I actually did - it was around 30 XMR for one 14K BTC at one point in January.  Of course I didn't cash in anything like as much as I should have (with hindsight).

What I hadn't considered was that the rise was a 'final cash out' factor, which may indeed be part of the picture. I already had some, so I wasn't seeing it from the perspective of buying it for that purpose.  It's certainly useful if Monero follows BTC rises but with a lag, which it has gone through phases of.


P.S. My last post seems to have been appreciated, thanks for the merit.  I shall pass them on.
