Good to see the dev team communicating.
Good sentiment.
Market appears stable in USD value.
Fundamentals have not changed.
Watching.
Topic: [XMR] Monero Speculation - page 1568. (Read 3313576 times)
Dollar shortage is getting intense worldwide. Between that and FATCA, international trade is blue, lacking oxygen. It may go to join the ghost of Smoot-Hawley.
XMR would be a wonderful solution to many of the problems bedeviling the ancien regime. But, so premature yet. The bootstrap is challenging, but the eusocial benefits are more than sufficiently compelling.
The bootstrap becomes an avalanche with multisig, i2p, gui, freebazaar.

Hey buddy you got me highlighting and R clicking as usual. Thank you.

Is a summary of the key points of the discussion available?

Someone is working on an overview if you don't feel like reading the whole thing.
So hopefully this will be online as soon as possible.
Despite the short attention span of some, I still:
1) Don't think there has been invented anything more interesting in the world, since crypto was invented.
2) Don't think there is any coin more interesting created, since Monero was created.
=> Despite that sun goes up and goes down, and it would be nice to have [insert feature here], there is no place better to be than Monero is.

He is very offensive, but what really makes me sad is that I sort of agree with him. I think that the opportunity window for Monero's success probably closed many months ago. (If not, there is very little time left). Great technology, but there is NO Marketing, and no (Non-Techno-Geek) user friendliness. Nor does there seem to be any recognition that these factors might be important.
Beta was superior to VHS. But that analogy is flawed, because those two videotapes were functionally more or less equivalent in their applications. But the Market obviously sees the potential functionality of ETH as superior to that of Monero. And again, there's a disparity in Marketing among the two. Look at their ages, and their market caps. And ETH is not yet finished either.

The "NO Marketing" is intentional, because of the "no user friendliness" you also note.
Monero isn't even out of beta yet. We can't really judge its success or failure until after multisig, confidential tx, and the GUI (not to mention some marketing) have given the coin a chance to gain market share.
Once ETH releases ring signatures dapp its over. The only chance for monero to survive is to increase adoption by a tenfold.
Monero doesn't even have a GUI...
...No one is using this (Monero)...

Monero doesn't even have a GUI (not saying that would increase adoption!). Man-child developers..
Look at the blockchain, http://chainradar.com/xmr/blocks , blocks are empty of transactions.. No one is using this shitcoin..
Anyway, I'll keep exchanging xmr for ETH, most likely it won't even exist this time next year.

Unless it is enforced (and thus mandatory) on the protocol level it would simply be a mixer similiar to Bitcoin's Coinjoin (perhaps one with better privacy features). Therefore, it will only slightly improve fungibility. Also (afaik), the fees to mix have to be done with transparent coins, which leaks your privacy.
No one is using this shitcoin.

Are you actually implying people are using ETH to buy stuff? LolI'll keep exchanging xmr for ETH
No, ETH is not a currency its so much more. Anyone actually using XMR to buy stuff ? Blocks are empty so no... Name one merchant that accepts xmr ...
Monero and development are two words that don't go together. I've been around since the bytecoin fork (April 2014), very little has been done in TWO YEARS...
I've seen shitcoins with a 3 month lifespan do more development-wise than monero in two fucking years..
So why are you even here and keep mining it if there is better stuff around.
And why would you slam a coin you supposedly hold 40k in and continue to mine? Not exactly smart unless you are lying and really think your investment opinion matters--though I think it is more that primer is lying to himself about the latter. If you believe a coin is going to fail, you pump it and sell into the hype, not vice verse.
You know, Monero and ETH are too important to be used for purchasing coffee. We should really look at limiting their blocksizes.
Great idea. It will make it more valuable too because of the increased scarcity.
Monero's block size is already limited - algorithmically with an "elastic" rule.
The suggestion clearly comes from a Bitcoin centric view. In fact irrelevant here.
I'll see myself out now. I know this will be deleted anyway.
