Monero. You cannot spell Monero without Nero. Nero - Rome is burning. Monero is crashing in value. Cry

Keep your nervs, wait for the long run Roll Eyes

Is there a legit reason for Monero losing price? I haven't seen one. It's just normal patterns. In some weeks or months it'll be going up again.

Some potential buyers might be waiting resolution for this: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11663084

No - because that kind of attack is way easier to make on DASH/DARKCOIN.

I can just spam the network with coinjoin transactions, all i need is a moderate amount of DRK (a few hundred) and pay some tx fees (i dont really need to if i make a deal with a pool tho).
Then owning most of the coinjoin transcactions i can exactly tell which "coins" belong to the other users and which are mine, no need to attack the masternode crap at all :-)
With the low darksend volume its so damn easy to do that :-) Your anonymity set is just the current transactions, ours is the whole blockchain.

Thanks for pointing out how useless DASH is tho.

I thought I was responding to why some might be hesitating to buy more when there are open issues instead of comparing XMR and DASH. If I have made an XMR transaction in the past I believed would be and remain private how does it console me if such an attack is supposedly easier on some other coin?

Is your aim to provide anonymous transactions, or compete with DASH?

(Btw, there are things that make it not as easy as you suggest wrt spamming DASH mixing but that's off-topic)

"(unless you have some way of telling whether outputs have been spent, thus proving the proofs of Fujisaki/Suzuki https://eprint.iacr.org/2006/389.pdf incorrect, what you suggest seems impossible to me)."

crossposted here for reference as the main thread is constantly spammed by weird bcn guys.
