On the other hand, maybe it really was someone who wanted to acquire that much monero with no slippage.  Who knows?  Cheesy



In other news, I think my comments earlier were misconstrued.  Monero is literally the best money on the planet.  So any other financial moves you do, wherein you hope to profit, should ideally end up with you holding more Monero than you did before.  You could try to use your financial moves to acquire more USD or Bitcoin, but these are inferior forms of money.  The fact that XMR is not especially popular yet doesn't detract from its superiority. 
 
The goal of any financial game is to gain more money, and make moves that allow you to gain more money than you had before.  This is why I said every move needs to be calculated in how it could impact your Monero holdings - up until a reasonable individual limit of 200k to 400k Monero, more is always better (especially at these early stages).  At this point is seems silly to try to chase more USD; I prefer to chase assets with more growth potential.

Boom.  Wall NOT pulled.

There was a 107 BTC sell at .00365.

Could lead us down a bit?

Wall just moved to .00365.

Somebody wants to see the price go up.  Because that move was not strictly necessary.

Wow...a 41,000 XMR buy wall (148 BTC) at .00360000 on Polo.

SOMEBODY doesn't want the price to go below .0036.  Is 40K XMR a whale?  $60,000 and change?

LMAO @ this crazy ass buy wall.   Grin  Is this a tease or will it morph into a more substantial move?

I was born into the worst poverty America has to offer, a shabby trailer park and government food handouts.  Through good decisions, I've crawled my way up to middle class in my adult life.  Now crypto will allow me to take the next step and become wealthy.  
  
It's a shame I don't already have a few hundred thousand USD to put into Monero (I would if I could), but I'm quite proud I have been shoving all the money I could into it for over a year now. (including that 30% APR loan I took a year ago and used it to buy my initial savings with).  It might not seem like much to you, but that money represents all my savings and more value than I have ever held.  I don't think there's a better asset in the world for it to be in, either.  It's rare that you find something so profitable that has the power to make the world a radically better place.  
  
I may not have been given very many math perks, but I decidedly have the gift of gab.  I think it's probably fortunate my energies have been directed at an actual worthwhile asset, vs allowing them to fire randomly into shell alts and premine scams.   Wink

I appreciate you a lot. Taking risk at times when it looked like XMR community had near death experience (coin price 0.001 each) and hardly anybody commenting here and hyping.
Often bets like these will not pay but when the pay you off they pay big time. Monero has quite good odds IMO. The only thing basically XMR is lacking is marketing team, but I guess once the price starts rising (yes, the price has not even started rising, it is around the same as it was when I purchased my first coins back in early June-August 2014). Risto told us Monero will be trading between 0.002-0.004 range. I find this being quite accurate price range. It is hard to predict the future so there has to be some forgiveness for predictions like this (after all, the periods at sub 0.002 has been less than 2 years so it is nothing).

BTW 30 % pa sounds quite interest to loan money.. It is like 10 times higher than I would pay. One way to cut interest payments is to refinance the loan with a collateral (perhaps a car, appartment, real estate etc). If there would be a way to do a collateralized loan overseas I for instance could lend you the amount for 10 % interest pa with a sufficient collateral.  Wink

        ...I've crawled my way up...
You have a very positive attitude, and like William Shatner https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPBt4IuQEbw you are not afraid to try new things. You are not afraid to fail, because eventually you WILL win. Thanks for your contributions to the DarkFlarb community!

Americanpegasus isn't a whale.

20,000 XMR isn't whale material.

Yeah I knew that Wink I baited you. Thanks.

I was basically wanting to expose his wannabe magnate statements.

Actually I don't dislike Americanpegasus. There are people that annoy us at times, that we can still like. I probably am that for some here.

I'm not usually interested in altcoins myself, but I can see how people can enjoy them. Most altcoin "investing" is a lot like gambling. I can see how trying to navigate and manipulate these tiny markets could be fun for a lot of people. These pump-and-dump altcoins aren't really competitors to Bitcoin: they're really a way of using your bitcoins to gamble. There are also a handful of technologically interesting altcoins like Monero, which I think are very useful for testing new ideas that might one day be incorporated into Bitcoin.

Let me guess: dynamic blocksize and tail-emission  Wink. Or would it be the opaque blockchain? The build-in every 6 month hard fork maybe?
Nah.

I remember those darkflarb comments from a while back, some forum admin must have been paying attention.

I also think it's pretty interesting that the forum picked up on "DarkFlarb", somebody is lurking in our little community Wink

The quality of this thread is, alas, significantly detoriating over the last few days.

Where is smooth?

Can't any DarkFlarb's supporters help me 'dish' Dish? Plz read:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.14393865

Posted some additional evidence. Posted in that other thread fwiw.

The penultimate goal of these games is simply to acquire more Monero\

What evidence do you have that the marginal utility of (acquiring moare) Monero is constant and the opportunity cost is negative for every possible situation and pre-existing holding.

If your end goal of riding any 'pump' or trading isn't to acquire more precious XMR, you didn't read the instructions in the box properly.

You must have an extremely boring and sheltered life.

Is this seriously what you really think  Huh Or just some cigar-smoking bravado to match what you think are the cues of a confidant magnate.

Just like in real life, you have to use context clues and behavior to tell how wealthy someone is

I need to stay out this thread, lest I will start to hate Monero again. The technology and development on Monero is factually one of the best in the altcoin space, but the whales in the coin make me want to puke.

Americanpegasus isn't a whale. He's essentially the "one direction" of the XMR world in the sense that he commands a few noobs with questionable intelligence.

20,000 XMR isn't whale material.

At the moment perhaps that is not qualified as being a whale (after all it is merely 30 000 usd which is quite small amount of money IMO). However, once XMR hits 1 000 000 usd/XMR that is a significiant stack of money.
Let's focus on hitting $2 first.  Smiley

So we had our healthy correction, support remains strong despite btc up again and volume still pretty high. IMO we're going to break the 0.0043 top and reach new highs this month.
