Price action doesn't look good to be honest, with every small BTC drop XMR goes down but when BTC recovers there isn't much recovering for XMR, the ratio keeps getting crushed.

No... it has not been a nice ride recently.  Hard to watch.

It will go up... just wait it out ... on every harder drop there has been buyers accumulating IMO

I was thinking yesterday. Monero started year 2017 as one of the most talked about coins, but latter lost the momentum. It looked like hype around other coins went up and around Monero stayed the same.  I never understand of a reason for that. Thought of marketing or that those that joined crypto will find Monero sooner or latter.  But what happened in 2017 and now will continue in 2018 are increased countries regulations. Countries had and will try to regulate ICOs and tokens and coins and all to collect as much taxes as they can. By doing that they mention coins and by that market them. And they mention all coins and tokens beside Monero. Because Monero with non transparent ledger currently dont fit in the scheme. And they have no ideas what to do with it so they ignore it. By ignoring they give no free marketing to Monero but give time to develop to get stronger.

Ignore, laugh, fight, you win.


It seems we are only at start. And we will have plenty of small disappointments on the way.

It's actually the whole market sentiment. All crypto had a good run-up last year, so I believe prices needs to stabilize first. I'm just hope that it will not take that long (like a multi-year bear market).

monero had to be taken over via the development team =) ~if this was really valuable the bytecoin would have rocketed too by now.

I have no idea what you are going on about but Bytecoin has been demonstrated to not only be a bunch of sock puppets and scammers with a hidden premine but also incompetent (see coin creation bug and countless other reliability and other problems with their wallet over the years). Along with the lack of RingCT, unoptimzied code, no LMDB for years, and other major differences.

Of course crypto markets often don't care about that and indeed Bytecoin has had its pumps, but there is no reason to expect the two coins to behave similarly now, years after there was any real commonality.

We could all increase the marketing if we wanted, by wearing the logo or creating a signature and by posting relevant content here and there.

Fight the good fight.

I think it's too soon to tell, I thought by OCT we would have recouped the lost gains but this market has been far more bearish than I initially thought. But I think when it changes it will be abrupt. These new manipulators play a longer game and dig deeper. The crypto market is lost to the common man afa day trading IMO.

Monero currently has a market capital of $6 billion. The coin is the best privacy coin out there. With its ring signature, it makes transactions completely anonymous and highly secure. The transactions are untraceable and hence, the identity of the sender and reciever is kept private. The coin has one of the best development teams behind it. One of the coin's major aspects is that it provides world class research which ensures that all privacy angles are discovered and adressed. Due to this fact, the coin has the potential to cross the $500 mark in the next 3-4 months. You can expect good returns from it.

IMHO, 3-4 months seems to short.
It'll take "at least" 2 quarters (6 months) to repair the price action, then break all time high again.

Breaking $500 in short period of time (e.g. 3-4 months) will not be sustainable and price may crash again.

In the absence of @aminorex these days, I nominate @Febo as our cheerleader-in-chief.

He's doing a great job of keeping our spirits up, our eyes on the prize, and our skin in the game.

Thanks @Febo

Agreed, here and on reddit his words give courage and consolation....

thanks!

where do you think 2018 ends? will it be a total bear year?

No.  Bitcoin will begin to rally sometime this year.


I hope that too, but why it would happen? Ligtning networks? Is there any info Lightning networks are now about to start real world use of the BTC?

What other reasons there are for BTC rally?

All that has to happen is for a fiat whale to backstop it and then for people to start to get caught in that greed feedback loop.

I dont think any new technical reason will build rally for bitcoin to reach new ATH.   I think just more and more institutional investors will buy BTC and slowly push it back to $20000. Once that will happen hype will start again and people will start buying it.   I dont see Bitcoin reach new ATH this year, earliest mid next.

And whats the lowest u can see bitcoin and Monero drop. I was reading in a magazine 5000 usd for bitcoin and Monero at 0.015 btc, that’s 75 usd per Monero. This is based on the charts

OK, while writing it makes me think. I call that Monero will not go under $50.   Most of the time will stay way over that but should not go under this number ever.

I made a pessimistic call so I dont need to change it ever again Smiley

Ha, I dont think I can be really that good. I have no ideas of any technical analysis or something similar.   But I do know that always after rain there comes sun and also the opposite.  Although might look silly at first, but I fell right now way more calm as I did in November 2017. Back then with months and months of constant growth it looked all so unreal and it was obvious it will at some point went down a lot. And it did.  Right now when it mainly does go down, I know it will sooner or latter stop. And we all know what comes after rain.
