Whales are accumulating and holding the price down....

Seriously though once ZeroCash is released Monero will most likely be abandoned. Most of the Monero dev's are part time volunteers and have other projects they can roll onto.

Zero Cash will most likely beat Monero to a GUI as well.

IMO Monero was way over priced for something that takes command lines to work, no official GUI, blockchain bloat problems and hardly any infrastructure in place.

Why would you say monero would be abondoned? What does ZeroCash offer that monero doesn't have?

At least it has some casinos accepting it. Not to criticize, but really the casino industry is the main engine behind all cryptocurrencies.

If a coin has a gambling option, then that coin has better chance of success.

But even though right now the price is down pretty far, I still support the approach the developers are and have been taking. Getting things right the first pass and working on things under the hood as opposed to a nice exterior and a horrible interior.

I`d say after the Monero can finally release a bugproof GUI wallet it will have much higher chance of competing in the altcoin space.

Until then, we shall see.

As much as I support Monero, I still see that there is a need for normal every day users to need a GUI. Most users this is ultimately designed for are non-command line users.

Exciting price movements.  Smiley

To all Monero dumpers:

I don't get why you do it, but if you really need to unload a lot of coins onto the market, please don't dump them in large chunks, but use this "autosell-bot" instead. This will probably give you a better average price and it won't hurt the confidence in the currency.
It's easy to set up (I included a manual) and you even have some parameters you can change:

Glorious giga-dump.  (or did someone go long on leverage and finally panicked and sold out?)
  
Of course anything I say after this will smell like bagholder support, but knowing I want to buy more before the end of the year this is very attractive.

Accept Monero [xmr] for donations at Tutanota is the second hottest idea at the moment.

Please vote, if you can and think this is something worth supporting.

They do it because it's almost 9:45 and there are no girls in our club.  They spent a lot of time ironing their shirt, selecting their best cologne, and spiking up their hair just right. 
 
And *holy shit* it's almost TEN and there's almost nobody here!  What happened!?  This was supposed to be the hottest club in town! 
 
What about that club across the street.... It has a small line, so maybe there's people there.  Sure, they had to wait a few minutes just to get in *this* club but it obviously wasn't worth it... Look at how many tables and spots are still left. 
 
Hmmm... Ok, perhaps they had better go scope out some of the other clubs just to make sure they aren't missing out - I mean, they'll have to stand in line again to get in, but that's ok: there's hardly anyone in line anyway and it'll probably stay like that all night...

Hey risto! 
 
Did you see these? 
 
I hope , they make a physical BTC it better than virtual

You mean like this?



It can be worth 1 BTC, and minted out of pure gold, and can be physically traded Cheesy

This physical Bitcoin looks luxurious and a very good coin to have. I would like to have one of these. Any idea on where I could buy one? I love to collect physical coins  Cheesy
 
 
I think that the perfect project for you with your vast Monero and Silver hoards would be to create physical silver Monero coins.  Given gold's reputation, I find that most "essentials hoarders" (I'm talking about the people that hoard guns and silver for worst case scenarios) prefer silver over gold. 
 
Bonus points if you could design a coin-like silver object that doesn't immediately have the XMR private key visible (though I know this would be difficult).

The problem with this design (if I remember correctly) is they were creating a new die for the back of the coin to have a different redeemable QR code for bitcoins.

Very uneconomical.

There’s a place where you could buy silver Monero coins. They look very shiny and good to collect. You can check it out here: https://cryptonic.net/product/order/5/ Hope this helps.  Smiley



Yes, I have two of them myself. I just posted my first one that I had professionally graded here on Cryptonic's thread.

Cryptonic.net have been very good to me, their site is pretty cool too. Once you buy a coin there, you can virtually attach btc/xmr wallets to the coin identifier number on the rim as well, so even though they are not like Lealana or Cascascius type coins with a hologram and keys inside, they are still quite beautiful since there is more room on the coin surface for the design/look. Smiley

edit - Americanpegasus. I agree, that will indeed happen, but for now, Cryptonic is on top of his game! Wink

That's really cool, but it doesn't look like it has a Monero private address included on it.  The allure is not owning silver with a Monero logo, but owning a precious object that also holds precious digital funds on it.  Perhaps the viewkey could be written on the coin edge, while literally inside the silver coin would be a private chip with a private key on it. 
 
Of course there is the problem of ensuring that only the bearer of the coin has access to the private key - what is needed is some method of storing as many XMR as there are ounces of silver in the coin, and *then* ensuring that the user can set a private password securing the onboard Monero. 
 
In fact, I predict one day we will see some sort of quadra-coin that has an ounce of gold, and ounce of silver, a bitcoin private key (storing a single bitcoin), and a Monero private key (storing a single monero) all on the same object.
