Aww, shucks guys... you are making me blush... and I want to formally apologize to AP. If anyone deserved it more, it would be him for being so adamantly selling me on XMR pretty much everyday. I would just read some of his stuff here, and honestly that halloween AMA was the best thing I've seen in a while.. crypto or not.

So I'm sorry AP, I do like being "tweeted" though.. even though I don't participate on any social media besides here. (If you consider this social media)...

Feel free to post an XMR address for a small prize.  Smiley

Naww, I couldn't.. I would feel bad because I took away such a significant spot in XMR history just because I refreshed the page at the right time... lol.

 I've been reading on the BBR speculation thread and they talk about "Supernet" being some thing that can potentially really help them out in the long run... I don't know if I've just been ignorant of this for some time, but what the hell is this, and why does it help out BBR and not XMR at the same time?

ugh supernet. I didn't know BBR was tied up in them. The way i understand it its like a conglomeration of a bunch of altcoins. The ideals are cool - "hey lets all work together!" so they're all sharing resources and making their chains interoperable (maybe... thats how I thought it should work, but I have no idea)... from my cursory investigation, it looked to have all the makings of a camel.

Ew.. that just sounds like a messy cluster f**k of PoW coins doing, well, the work; while PoS coins just sit back and collect profit.  That doesn't sound like the right way to go at all, and I would assume people would get tired of that very quickly.

Like I said, my research was cursory. I'd suggest digging into it yourself.... don't take my word on anything. I log on here when I'm half braindead or focusing on 10 other things, so.....

So how about this bull rush for both bitcoin and monero, and the fact that everybody else is tanking it pretty hard?? From what my ticker says on my phone, Monero's up a solid 8% ... nicely done. Any particular reason why xmr isn't tanking it down the tubes along with it's other cryptonote siblings?

uhhhhhhhhhh because Monero is awesome? I would guess its because, of all the cryptonotes, Monero's the only one really being developed. In order of developmentness, it probably goes XMR > AEON > BBR > others.

unfortunately, it could also be for stupider reasons, like the fact that monero has good liquidity on poloniex, so market players can extract profits by throwing their weights around. But whattaya gonna do. Its the wild west up in here.

Haha, I just instantly got the cover to the song "Wild Wild West" that South Park did in it's old seasons for some reasons...

Heh, I love watching Monero outperform Bitcoin, especially as all other significant alts are crashing.  Investment thesis = validated.   Cool

The new 'confidential transactions for ring signatures' paper can't be hurting us.

But the larger issue is Monero being too far into oversold territory just as Bitcoin's rally really caught fire.  The across-the-board volume a good BTC spike can bring makes being short anything (besides fiat) a dubious proposition.

Too bad for whoever was shorting Monero!

Also, how likely/possible is this to implement into a Monero release?  Would it require a hardfork? (which isn't a problem since those are scheduled anyways)  

Something like this would certainly require a hard fork to be implemented in a reasonable manner (if at all).



Does your (if at all) comment refer to your view on the difficulty level in adding it or whether there will be a consensus that it is desired?

Sorry that was terribly unclear. I was referring to the possibility of implementing it without a hard fork using some of the extremely convoluted soft fork mechanisms that have been proposed for adding things to Bitcoin without a hard fork. That's not really important or useful since we plan hard forks in Monero anyway.
