So interesting.

1.  XMR is acting like a damn stablecoin.

2.  We have seen what seems to me to be an interesting correlation between XMR and BTC.  

But it should be stable at a much higher rate, it was pegged to 100usd for quite awhile. I am not sure where the coins came from that dumped it from there but I am guessing it was the ones Polo stole and that new virus miner possibly.


Now lets just push back up to 035 then I can be happier  Smiley

 

Yeah I can still feel the burn of those i bought at .03 Smiley

Bitcoin maximalists don't consider xmr as just another alt coin scam, it's the goto privacy option for BTC, so over time it's forming a stable relative price.

Enough personal and character attacks having nothing to do with Monero Speculation.

I'm not going to bother deleting the replies for now (but forum mods still might). If it continues I'll start hitting the delete button.

Monero Defcon27 Village - Foundations of Digital Money (Daniel Kim, PhD, MBA)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-FkL5eXam8

I posted this a month ago with all other talks that day of Monero Defcon27 Village. If I remember right slides did not work back then. So here is full presentation. For those that hang in this thread for years is nothing new, but fro those join crypto in recent years and new to Monero is a must see. Also a really good source to convince a skeptic why crypto and specially Monero is important.

Thanks for posting that link again Febo... good material, reference source info to keep on hand etc.

Jesus WHY in GOD'S name have I not EVER yet been to a DEFCON?

I was actually gonna GO this year finally, but then... still didn't.  Why?  WTF is wrong with me?  LOL

Gonna go NEXT YEAR FOR SURE!  Mark my words.  Yeah.  Who's with me..........? ? ? ?  Aaaaaaahhhh ........  Grin

Does anybody know where we can check the data on Monero and how much it's being used by DNM's atm?  Just wondering if it's trending higher...

Not that I use them (I actually really don't (like that would be something anyone would believe (oh God, I am getting lost inside a parenthetical alternative universe)))...

But I keep an eye on dark net markets mostly out of curiosity.  Wall Street Market was shut down this summer, but XMR was a preferred crypto there and most vendors took it.  Some even had special discounts for XMR users.  I saw someone who ran a cannabis gummy XMR sale regularly.

Currently the biggest DNMs are probably: Empire, Tochka, Berlusconi, Nightmare, and Cryptonia.

All of those take XMR.

I am a libertarian.  But to be honest I do not think this use of XMR is what makes it important.  I just think it is a natural side effect of it being one of the truly useful digital currencies.  I am also one of the probably few old school crypto people who does NOT see Ross Ulbricht as a hero.  I see him as a criminal (but his sentence is ridiculous).  Almost all other projects are garbage at worst and well-meaning testnets at best.  I am looking forward to XMR continuing to shed it's darknet reputation and being seen for the privacy preserving tour de force that it is.

That said, there is no doubt it is THE trusted privacy currency on the dark web.  People probably still use Bitcoin more and are fools for it IMHO.

Without really getting into all the moral and philosophical stuff, I just want to know if XMR's use is trending at DNM's or where to get the data.

Well my own method would be to create accounts at DNMs and do the due diligence.  I am not sure who, aside from 3 letter agencies, is compiling stats for DNMs. But one should only do this with the clear understanding that one is wading into questionable waters.

To be honest I do not think looking at things on a DNM is illegal where I live, but I am not a lawyer in my country not to mention the other ones in the world. I would however guess that ordering many things from a DNM *is* illegal in most jurisdictions.

I believe there are also reddit forums concerning these things.  One could do DD there too.

Since most of you guys who hang out in the Monero ANN thread hang out here too, I'll just post this here in speculation.  Auction for serials 1-10 and donations/winning bids can be made to current/future CCS proposals or to the general dev fund.

Hope to see some of y'all there. Smiley

They should put out a My Little Pony Monero themed wallet for the kids to learn on.

"My Little Creepy coin developers"  would be more appropriate !!  Grin Cheesy Smiley you nailed it.
