In my opinion the emission schedule should be decreased by 50 %.
For example, the current block reward is around 14 xmr - better to change it to 7 xmr.
It will help the dumping pressure and gives nice and steady growth for the coin.
The existing balances and total number of coins should not be touched but just give 100 % more time for the rest of emission.

Some would call it a community-fastmine. Not like I'm saying it's fundamentally bad, but it doesn't look clean.

If something like that were to be done, and I'm not saying it is even on the table, it would have to be for better reasons, like the long term viability of the coin. Every time the issue has come up, though, it is always presented as a way to manipulate the market. That is a total non-starter. We could convert to a PoS shitcoin if we wanted, and not have to deal with any dumping at all. There is zero interest in doing that. Move on to one of the 1000+ of those if you want to be free from dumping.

If this is indeed FUD, then we are witnessing market capitulation with strong rebound pending...

Not sure if it was much of a capitulation, but the rebound does seem to be in...

27K dumped in one 5m candle was pretty impressive. 

the btc cap share equivalent would be like 120k btc

27k XMR out of 3500k existing XMR, that is about 0.77%. It also means some people bought those.

As to credibility, he's found exploits before, and used them before. However, he also likes to come on the forum and pad his ego.

he talked about this specific exploit in july and no one cared. we will see how this works out. maybe he is right but I do not see his motivation in what he is doing

its called the 500K litecoins he owns.

No, he talked about a difficulty adjustment exploit. This one's new.

I'll be looking through his posts to find what we're both talking about, and update it here. Unless you get to it first.

here it is: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/operation-shitcoin-cleanout-and-clean-up-has-begun-join-the-revolution-re-open-522235

here again: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/operation-shitcoin-cleanout-and-clean-up-has-begun-join-the-revolution-re-open-522235

No mention of a keyring exploit.

"they" are FUDing the "new" (from July) XMR (CN) exploit in the Polo trollbox.

I couldn't help myself and bought more at what looks like the panic bottom of 382

Buy support dropped by 50%?  Guess BCX still carries weight


There goes the speculation we knew until now... Tongue Hope the whole thing was a mistake. Then XMR would be even stronger.

Until then...

The danger with a very early boom bust cycle is that is can do a lot of damage to a coin before there is a strong enough community to deal with the aftermath. There are very few who can show a positive return and a large quantity of "bag holders". The perception then is that the coin is in terminal decline. An interesting case is DOGE that was launched very close to the XBT/USD peak. This has led to what is seen by many as a coin that has been in a bear market since its inception. My take in the case of DOGE is that this has less to do with the intrinsic merit or lack thereof of DOGE and more with the unfortunate timing of its release. Nevertheless the DOGE community has to overcome this perception. If the boom bust cycle happens when the coin is more mature then the recovery becomes much easier.

Likewise.  It's like we're blessed or something.
