Is there any news why XMR is going very high? This has come as a surprise for me because I have missed it in the news. Maybe this is a pump and dump?

troll box is a disgrace, seems lots of XMR haters warning off new enterers. From well down all the way up.

I hear XMR is a scam coin, its a crowd fund project, its a bull trap set up in advance etc. facts are not important.

Polo has been screwed up for many hours.  XMR deposits disabled.  I made a deposit before polo disabled them, polo shows it stuck at 7 confirmations.  It must have dozens by now.
When I went on the trollbox to ask for help, one of the mods threatened to ban me.
And yes, of course I opened a ticket.

polo notice board says down for several hours while wallet re-syncs.

  I made an xmr deposit to poloniex about 6 hours ago.  They still list it as pending at 7 confirmations, haven't credited it to my account.   Now xmr deposits are disabled at polo.
What's going on? 
Are monero transactions going through, or is this just a polo problem?

Monero transactions are going through. Many of them. I don't know if it is a new record (ignoring spam attacks) but it is impressive.

I am now just thankful to be apart of this. I have come to learn in crypto, you win some you lose some. I cant go on thinking I could have had X amount more of Monero if I bought earlier. I am happy with what I have and I think anyone else who is here now should be thankful too. Any amount of XMR is great to have now in my opinion. I have not seen action on any ALT like this in recent times since Ethereum. I like this coin as a store of wealth much better than ETH any how.

We are all blessed to be here and I hope we can all do something great with our wealth to make the world a better place and show everyone XMR is about more than "darkness".

....at only 0.007.


If someone had told you a week ago you'd be prefacing that price with the word "only" ....  Tongue Shocked

Volume is just insane, and I don't think I caught the peak in this screenshot:

How many coins would a person need in October 2017 to be considered a whale?

100,000 should do the trick.

What makes this so exciting is the volume. This volume is unheard for a coin with such a marketcap. And especially for XMR.
I was lucky enough to trade at the right time so i sold some almost at the top. Of course looking to rebuy when i see the right moment.

Finally monero starts getting the attention it deserves! I really believe that we havent even seen most of what it can do with its price. As for its tech, i think we are pretty much sure now that it is the real deal since we are finally justified by the recent news. As we all speculated for so much time...

Community grows steadily for the last 9 months and i expect to become way larger. Goals are being completed and good news are coming all the time.

If we manage to help the newcomers with the coin and manage to not have any huge hacks etc i see a bright future. The biggest problem i identify is not the GUI but the fact that we are too dependent on Poloniex. We really need to get listed elsewhere although i assume that this will happen soon.

Most of the fudders here always wanted to manipulate the coin so they can buy lower. But i am laughing to those few that were shitting all over the place just to help their shitcoin. Being here from the first/second day its so damn funny to remember the first months with the bytecoin shills(i am sure the bytecoin people are already on board) and all other coins claiming to be anonymous or that they are also bringing ring signatures only to cease to exist today.

The core team is perfect! No other comment.

If there are ideas for funding projects/coding etc i think devs must step up now.

Yeah i am excited Smiley

Very true here... I wish we could get some high volume trading over at bitsquare, or maybe have a new version of moneroclub (or other LBC like website for monero) to get less centralized in terms of exchange sites.  Usability is a little weird on bitsquare, but I'm sure it will continue to get better over time and will eventually become easier.

It's exciting to see people finally willing to hear out what the community has been saying for a while about how we have a solution to fix Bitcoins fungibility, scalability, and anonymity issues.  

Bitsquare needs market makers and arbitragers and you wont have those without an api. Good news is API in the works I hear.

What the heck happened while I was sleeping? The cork is open?
Buy support is still something we need to work with (10 k btc constantly would be awesome).

Read - Dump incoming?

I think the dump came already. It peaked around 0.009, and now it is -20 % at only 0.007.
There might be some people willing to dump and they can do so. Personally I am not going to do it - the buyers are in pretty safe position thanks to the real world use of Monero. And the darknet market vendors probably will not dump their Moneros since the privacy is something they value the most in currency.
The funny thing about this race is that I do not feel anything - perhaps it is due to too much fantasizing 10 000 + usd/xmr price.

We are living exciting times since we are unknown waters now.

Is moneroaddress safe and proven? Have there been any hacks?
Would you be comfortable storing 10,000 moeneros (dont have that many, just trying to make a point)?

And how would you break up the moneros? Print out 10 different wallets and split it between them?

https://moneroaddress.org/

Hello, I host and maintain moneroaddress.org, and the code is from Monero dev moneromooo here: https://github.com/moneromooo-monero/monero-wallet-generator. Core dev Luigi1111 also contributed. I do not know of any hacks, presumably you mean hacks due to some sort of RNG flaw. There is the option to provide your own entropy if you don't want to trust the browser crypto for your random seed.

Beyond that, the code is based off of what MyMonero uses to generate their seeds, and the only hacks I have heard involving MyMonero people who had malware on their computer, stored the seed on their computer, etc. If you aren't certain that your computer is secure, use Tails or a live CD of Ubuntu at least.

If you are careful to use the site offline and verify the GPG signature, yes I would be comfortable storing large amounts on a paper wallet. But don't trust me, best to try it out yourself and make your own educated decision.

Personally I like to generate my cold wallets using simplewallet on an offline computer, then I can write down the seed and store it safely and also keep a few digital copies of the .keys file just in case.

I would probably break up a large amount into multiple wallets as well, that way you don't have to revive your entire balance if you just need to spend a small portion in the future.

Here is a very detailed how-to if you are interested:
