Really good article written about darkmarkets and shadow economy in last 5 years. In this thread there was lots speculations in past two years of how much volume and how much listings darkmarkets have. This guy some who got answers. Yes speculation here went also in how big share Monero have. There is no infor about that in the article, except confirmation that more and more every day pass.

Great article which brought me full circle back here to this thread which I think you all should read my comment if your thinking of joining that ICO.

so much different information about this subject is traveling on the market, choosing the ones that are strong among them takes a little effort.

Not really, all you have to do is read the comments in the various threads and check the trust and other posts of those making their opinions known on the subject. It's easy to find scams and on Bytecoin you don't even have to DYOR it's already done for you.

Anyone know what caused that dump across the board on everything and hour ago?

Damn, just took a look and it's just ugly right now, but I think it's whale feeding time and all the little guppies are emptying their pockets.

.

If I were to guess it could also be short squeezing time. I would not be surprised if there is a significant XMR short position by our ASIC player. There are some strange moves which may be due to the ASIC fork including a very sudden sharp rise in the price of BCN, which was very likely caused by a single large buyer. This was accompanied by a sharp increase in the BCN hashrate. The ASICs may find BCN to be a more attractive home than XMO.

When it comes to squeezing shorts, my strategy is very simple one buys or keeps holding, takes delivery (this is absolutely critical) and waits,

Edit: Fish of any size can participate in this strategy.

Yeah it looks like BCN is going to be a P$D for awhile, I noticed it was being accumulated the last few months and there were a few revivalists running about. Looks like their Move was nothing more than a fizzle as the blockchain couldn't handle it. Lol I bet the exchanges made some cake on that.

So what became of those little chain forks? Was that someone making attempts at double spends?

Thank you for sharing this. Previously, we all knew about the statistics recorded from 2016 especially by the known market/crypto analytics firms, but I think it will be difficult to truly estimate, especially when dark markets learn their lessons after the falls of silk road and alphabay. Monero will also be harder and harder to track, which is what it is all about anyway, but let us not forget not all dark market activity is bad even if it is illegal. I do not condone most activities there for sure but services like anonymous emails and vpns should always be protected.

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.

coinbase is right now around 6.4 XMR. So I guess your criterium is reach and you are happy.

Freshly mined Moneros are now so rare that Monero is getting scarce. Monero is a cryptocurency that is being used everyday and coinbase is one way to provide liquidity for that use.

Don't reply to the bots.

Yes, but there is a critical difference. By the time Monero reaches a 70% mined rate it will a fundamentally different investment than it is today, for better or for worse. This means a vastly different risk vs return consideration for any investor. We are talking 8 or more years since the start of crypto currencies in 2009.

So gross, I've been overpaying every week. My bid is now in at .020.... Fuk

I'm so torn, hate see it lose value even though i'm still trying to buy. Lol seriously bi-polar on this.

Don't be that guy who ended up hating himself later on after refusing to give in and buy at .0025 when the AlphaBay stories were swirling around back in the day.

cruel mention

I hate you guys!

"The attack" is simply the ongoing process of people who want to compete for either money or attention on the basis of various forms of exploits and attacks, or threats of the same. It will never be finished, it is just something needs to be dealt with, like cleaning the windows or mowing the lawn.

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.

Just bounced off of a line I haven't seen for a while (XMR/BTC), that I drew in oct/nov 2017, reaching back to May/June 2016. Does it hold? Let's find out!

the first 2 times touching this line it more than doubled, very quickly...

A line sort of like this?

I believe in this coin, because it seems to me that similar anonymous coins have a great future. People want to be completely anonymous in crypto.

0,06125 in mid of October Cheesy

But my fresh fiat is aimed at XMR. Why XMR? Partly because I sold some late last year and the fiat is currently wasting away in the bank, but mainly because by the autumn I think anything bought now or lower is at at least a 50% discount to what I think we will see by this autumn.

My fresh fiat is also directed towards XMR. The XMRBTC just dipped below the 200 day MA, and has been historically a very smart buy anytime it is below this level.

That is a good position. I know somebody is selling ZEC for XMR at the moment as the later is more ASIC resistant.
