It looks like the worst time to hold any alts at the moment , every bitcoin movement up or down creates a sellof for altcoins including monero.

My last prediction was way off, but I do think we'll see big movement before October. We're deep in the "is anything ever going to happen" phase of the cycle that is reminiscent of last year when the price seemed to perpetually hover around $30.

The general pattern of the XMR market (and all of crypto, really) is long periods of consolidation and false reversals, followed by very brief moments of extreme excitement and massive price increases. I'm confident we're going to see some fireworks (very) soon.

Crypto winter is time to upgrade personal infrastructure. Position size, exchange accounts, and key management. Casa is a very interesting key management solution with 3 / 5 multisig and plans on supporting monero in the first round of coins after bitcoin. Right now, 3 of 5 isn't yet available on Monero, I will be interesting to see how fast their infrastructure engineer Jameson Lopp can come up with a robust integration.

  • "Switching to Monero is always an option." - @zooko
  • Monero is a strong project - I wouldn't dismiss it.

Jameson has plenty positive to say about Monero. Looking forward to seeing more OG bitcoin engineers working on Monero.

So what markets are actively using Monero now? Which ones actually matter?



I hope so, I wondered (about a year ago) why I hadn't seen many of his views in this thread. I can understand wanting to keep a core Devs views separate with a different account. People expect o much from a dev 24/7 especially on a project like this. It's funny because Iwas going to say it was nice seeing him post again. Smiley

Added: It would be cool to see TacoTime posting here. Smiley

If you believe in Monero's future (you should... just take a look at active research and development), it would be wise to use this "down time" to fortify your position and tie up loose ends. I've been accumulating since the price fell under $150.

I was almost certain the downtrend would have reversed sooner, but these waiting periods can be seen as an opportunity to focus on some of the less exciting but equally important facets of investing: security and wealth preservation. Don't find yourself caught off guard when things start to heat up again.

Lotsa punters in here.

I had to google it.  For me punter was a rebel, but I knew that is not right meaning.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punter


Personal roles
Punter (football), a position in American or Canadian football
Someone who uses a punt (boat)
Punter, a Puntite (citizen of Somalian region Punta)
John (prostitution), in British English
Gambler, in Australian and New Zealand English

Other uses
Punter (protocol), a file-transfer protocol
Punternet, an escort rating service

So which meaning you were referring here?  A gambler?  Or boaters?  Or footballers?

You are in the presence of some motherfucking Monero OGs.

Now GTFO.

Or do you have something to contribute?
No profanity, please.  You're making a bit of a mistake.  I bought near the peak of the first pump in 2014 and lost money (on paper, temporarily)... hodled since then.
This is why I don't grok the short-term casino mentality.  OG's?  It is to laugh.

What are you guys talking about?

I could see Polo delisting XMR for it's privacy angle.  I could see the XMR market pairs delisted.

But delisted because of Volume?  Price?

1.  Today (as is fairly usual) XMR is #5 in volume there.
2.  Today XMR is down ~6% which is just about in the middle of the pack of the Alt slaughter.

I think money MAY be starting to flow from ALTS to BTC.  As much as I hate to see XMR suffer... I think that would be very healthy.

Bought by Golman Sachs, I think we can stick a fork in that exchange. Shsss trying to buy cheap

Would be nice to get my coins out before the fork goes in...

Me 2 it's half for me. Smiley

For those people who would like to play fantasy football this year... Here is this year's 2nd Annual Monero Fantasy Football League thread.

Don't lose your Monerojes in some boating accident, come lose your Monerojes while gambling and talking smack with your fellow Monerians Smiley

That sounds like a sound plan! Who won the Madness?


Didn't get enough traction unfortunately... only gambled away my fiat this time rather than losing muh XMRs as well Sad

Guess I got lucky.. Grin

Sounds like me last year, only lost my dirty Paypal tokens. Cheesy



Is this smart ass on smart ass crime?  Wink Added bold so my point was more obvious

ROFLMFAO!!! Looks like a maybe, glad I held off for the moment

W0w, talk about going to shit! Polo market down to 
Total:
211.52122082
BTC

got dumped from .0181X to .0177

Binance still has good support. I think Polo will end up Delisting soon.


Owow, delisting monero on polo would be a bad thing I guess?
