Topic: [XMR] Monero Speculation - page 1643. (Read 3313576 times)

Yes it is. The Chikun is about to rise soon.

Is it true?

Only short period of time until Monero hits minimum block reward.
Most of pre-minimum coins are mined now unlike 1 year ago.
Next year Monero has a true chance of getting high prices if any meaningful amounts of people are about to embrace Monero as their coin of save haven. Now Monero is still relatively cheap and personally I have been scooping some coins at these levels.

The redirect to https didn't work for me until I manually went there.

Working fine for me. What browser are you using?

I switched servers yesterday and made the site HTTPS only, so perhaps that is the cause of the issue. Try refreshing your browser cache maybe.

This should help you:

Furthermore, Monero has a perpetual inflation. That is, after all the initial coins are emitted, Monero has an inflation of ~1% a year. It's actually 0.3 XMR per block (blocktime is 1 minute (will be changed to 2 soon, but rewards will stay the same, so still 0.3 per minute)). Due to this formula, percentage wise the inflation gets lower every year.

Also, from the wikipedia:

i am not familiar with the coin production of Monero. How many coins will be created/mined over the next years. is there a graphic of coin creation over the complete horizon like for Bitcoin?

Is Monero in the running? it has the significant difference, they ask for, coming with the db.

As long as that's still a blockchain in their definition as well.

This could help for the entry into the chinese market and further recognition in general.

That's odd, it works here. Try this one -> https://moneroaddress.org/

On that site, the link to the "Monero offline wallet generator" tool is broken.

I think this is what you are looking for -> https://getmonero.org/getting-started/merchants

Because of reading this topic frequently, I am aware that there a lot of Monero services / websites like xmr.to, monerodice, website that lets you proof your transaction etc.

Is there any website (for example on getmonero.org) bundling all these websites and services? Monero is already bigger than it looks at first sight, which I think is unfortunate for new users.

It took me about 7 min to refresh a wallet that was 100,000 blocks behind on a 2 TB HDD. So I can see why this could be an issue for someone to has an old HDD hard drive say about 200 GB since HDD seek time for a given spin rotation basically falls with size. I would expect about 70 min for a 200 GB HDD to refresh 100,000 blocks. Still I would not hold up 0.9 over this since there are simple fixes for a user.

1) Get an SSD or a large HDD.
2) Refresh the wallet on a regular basis rather than wait a few months as I just did.

Edit: OS Trisquel GNU/Linux 7, Processor Core  2 Quad 6600 @ 2.4 GHz (about 7 years old) RAM 8 GB DDR 2 Motherboard Asus P5N-D. Monero Version: 0.8.8.7-107eeaf

I'm done with it for now. I'd seen someone mentioning it was slow, so I had a look. It doesn't look particularly slow here, but it might be because I'm on a SSD. We'll see what people think.

Charts are starting to look pretty good guys  

Looking at the 3d on btcwisdom I'm becoming more and more optimistic.
 
We bounced nicely of the 0.001 like we did in mid feb. Heavy dumping has stopped for a good 10 days now. The raging short-bonanza seems over.
Currently working towards a 4th consecutive green candle, which is in fact quite rare. If we make it, that would be a very bullish signal. So far this happened only in strong run ups or reversals. The 3d macd is heading towards a flip over the next week it seems.

Currently we are encountering some resistance at the 0.00135 level. Traders seem to love to continously set asks around that spot. not surprising, since historicly that was a though resitance to break and heavy force was indeed needed to go below it end of october. Let's see how much 'force' is needed to break it to the upside. Next big one up is the 16.5, which will be a toughy. Lots of history on this spot, both support/resistance and this level also coincides with the first fibo.

We're gonna need some volume though, it's a tad too quiet for my liking. Having said that, if we look at the quiet beform the storm earlier this year in january/feb  we're actually doing a bit better. This might be because of the margin-trading which poloniex has introduced since then.

Some great battles ahead, but I'm definitely long here  

Is "some wallet refresh performance work" something that you want to finish optimizing before 0.9 is tagged and released?
