So guys do you seriously think Monero will replace Darkcoin as # 1 anon coin?

Basically it requires close to ATH for Monero (assuming Darkcoin will not rise).

Pretty solid assumption to make.

 Here we are, back into the late 03/16 price levels.  Nice green candles, and all quiet in the speculation thread!  XBT also creeping back up, putting XMR back in the $2 range again.  I like it.

Yep, the price looks nice lately.
Was there any new development or news? What made the price rise?

Buyers   Grin


Large market buys like those generally have me thinking short closing...

Yes, I was just about to post how pleasing it was to see some weekend rises on relatively low volume, suspect we may test the 38 - 40 range next week.

Yes it will come. It always does. But not so soon.

The three periods of greatest risk for broad markets coming up are Sept 16, jan-feb 17, aug-oct 17.  The longer it takes to get a major correction, the more likely we are to see a 60-75% drop in asset levels (constant value units off the 2015 highs, still never surpassed), which is the demographic attractor level.  In a central banking crisis, a 90-95% drop is possible.

Right now, gold is likely to correct down over the next week or so, with support around 1220, which is a sweet buy point , so I think there is reason to think u.s. markets may test new constant value highs , but not for long.  Gold won't dip that low unless oil sees at least strong resistance, and better, a significant drop, 32 being lower support for WTI for a few months.

In xmr I think we are very close to where miners can sell again.  I expect liquidity and volatility to decline together, as does emission, uutil  marketability event catalyzes demand, all else being equal.  The few buyers are people with strong vision and confident understanding.  Short-term speculators are few, and the economy is essentially nil.

Well. Eu seems like optimally ripe for a lehman bro episode. OTOH, when a lot of people expect something (the deustche and italian banks collapsing this fall/coming months), the expected thing tends to not manifest.

You can recognize reality in his improbablity.

So we don´t really know. The only thing we know for sure is that XMR is not repeating his last year history (as guessed by a good chunk of XMR followers) and its doing a sane, serene bull run

It may be that we are waiting for an extinction event. That is what I mean by calamity. Perhaps the complete or near destruction of global financial system. In that case, people will be running for their lives. XMR could function as a lifeboat alongside precious metals, etc.

This is a large portion of my thinking about cryptocurrency. If you were around since 2011 as I was then you can appreciate the enormous shift in public confidence in the incumbent financial system. Crypto is surviving and even to an extent thriving despite a five-year trend in the fundamentals of perception that are hugely negative, but I don't really see a moon type event in any crypto without that trend reversing in a big way.


I remember installing a bitcoin wallet shortly after the 2009 collapse when markets made their lows and rebounded. I started being interested in gold and was looking for new alternatives to fiat money and the current system. Too bad I didn't put much more interest in at that time little research project.
Fast forward to now, when the stock market is about to create the biggest bubble ever - the subsequent bust will make people look for alternatives and this time Bitcoin will be ready. I think we still have time to make Monero ready as well. 

If you really installed bitcoin wallet shortly after the 2009 collapse, so less then half year after Bitcoin existence and you did it not with the reason to test technology but because you were looking for new alternatives to fiat money, I hope you will post here more. Since there are not many like you if any at all.

I agree with you all that financial crisis is biggest chance for Bitcoin and specially for Monero.  What i dont agree or maybe just dont want to open my eyes is that next crisis is  just behind the corner.  Yes it will come. It always does. But not so soon.

I also think that this is not the pump and the natural growth that will last up to the intermediate value 0.01.

Still seems about 10-15% undervalued to me, but close enough so I no longer feel like it's a fire sale.  Adjusting my cheap/dear levels to 284k/338k overnight, but probably will raise the bracket tomorrow afternoon - usually when there's a big up day, it continues up strongly  for a day or two.

monkey, RIP. 

What happened?  Bad/too many bananas?

I believe it looks good lately. Like it has found a new bottom zone. I am not overexcited now but will certainly be when we pass 0.0042 soon™!

It took the dumps pretty good yesterday and today it is even pumping. Like someone made a mistake yesterday and reentering?

Edit: Anyone may invite me on slack?

We just briefly hit 300 and the # of coins on the sell side is 266K.  I haven't seen it below 300K in a very long time.

The 19K XMR/57 btc wall at 302 is still there. 

Oh wait, as I write this 12K XMR/ 37K BTC of it was just bought in one bite plus what was below it Shocked

What wall?  Roll Eyes
