I'd say those that speculated on the 777 that are regulars here will be pretty spot on.


Bah.  I am an exception.  I believe I picked the earliest day available.  Certainly it has passed.  This is a function of my inability to predict price.  I don't even try.  Trends, yes.  Price?  Not so much.

I may have to get an andriod phone now, Tongue

I helped set up an Iphone with the Cake wallet today.  Monerujo is just better Tongue  Granted it has far more development and feedback thus far, and Apple tends to send steam out of my ears on a good day.  Cake looks like it has potential though. 

Pity I didn't fund my Monerujo beyond it's resident dust before I left home, as I want to spend some.  That's what I get for being in a rush.  Oh well, maybe I'll get more for my moneroj next week  Cool

It is pretty obvious now that Bulletproofs will not happen in March HF.  Seems few still live in denial and believe it can happen.

Bulletproofs will need an audit that should take a month of time.  There need to be selected people ( more time we have better auditors we can choose) to audit and gathered founds to pay them.

On my opinion the date for code freeze for March HF should be set as soon as possible.


Having read the logs, I think I'm more in the camp of those who think that we should push BP's as soon as they've been reviewed, rather than wait till Sept HF. I'm not sure why we can't have some flexibility when it comes to the timing of HF's especially with something of this magnitude. It also sucks that a Monero rip-off will have them implemented before we do.

Let them Beta test it with their capital. Weird the higher monero goes the louder holders are getting about pushing it higher. I see dollar signs in alot of eyes here where there used to be altruism.

what a crazy month ... i wonder how long it will be like this. again at 300 usd , a few days ago 400 ... i know it all has to do with bitcoin , and that for bitcoin januari is a special month where we see some lows...
but it gives me the creeps Cheesy. HODL still seems the best solution but men , what we have to go throug last few days.

Anybody of the pro's has an opinion on the price for the comming weeks?

It's gonna go up then down... wait it might be the reverse this time, I forget.

I don't think one needs to be a "pro" in saying that intelligent forecasts are almost impossible in cryptoland. Mind you, that's always held true, whether the period of time in question is the next few weeks or the last couple of years. The only thing one can pretty well guarantee is fear, uncertainty, doubt, and a whole lot of excitement.

I'd say those that speculated on the 777 that are regulars here will be pretty spot on.

I think there are 5 or 6 different streams to look at as an overall system. All leading to good for Monero.

The emissions falling, famous privacy and security, increasing dark market adoption, upcomming relese map incudes several key features and transaction size reductions, er multi sig, Holding well with BTC pretty much throughout its rise and slight fall back, there is also some adoption here and there with various services and businesses,

I dont think it will be ready that much ahead.  Code freeze should be done in Jully. We will see how much before that all will be done. I dont think that will be measured in months.

Wasn't there a discussion about part implementation?




Not this time around. It's a shame that a lot of the "big hitters" weren't there - FP, Smooth, Arctic Mine, Moneromooo, or Luigi. Not that the result would necessarily have been any different, but I think it's important to have their public input on the matter.

What makes you say that? Has there been recent news?


Yes the meeting dedicated to Bulletproofs as was decided on last Developers meeting:  https://monerobase.com/wiki/MRLMeeting_2018-01-21

Just saw that. Thanks.

"Criminal underworld is dropping bitcoin for another currency"

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-01-02/criminal-underworld-is-dropping-bitcoin-for-another-currency

We bloomberg now  Grin


This has been said before by McAfee that bitcoin is not a place for them anymore. They have shifted to monero that is more of a privacy coin than bitcoin.
Bitcoin's future is dependent largely on it's potential as a settlement network for digital credit, while Monero's is much more closely tied to the gross product growth of the digital economy.

This is pretty much my investment thesis as well, but what about Lightning?  Wouldn't that also tie Bitcoin to the digital economy's GPG?

Happy Skepticism Sunday!  Cool
Well wait and see if that will take everything to the top but as long as it's not implemented, we have to wait and guess.

The XMR still has not realized the big impact I had expected. I think XMR will be worth $ 1000. I think the most affordable projects of the market. It is not an investment recommendation.

Speaking of skepticism Sunday; LN, if even moderately successful, will render the value of the majority of alt projects dubious at best.

How do you see Monero dodging that bullet?  nullc said, as he was leaving blockstream, he intended to work on bringing fungibility to BTC.

I personally think XMR has a fairly LAPP resistant niche... but I want to hear others opinions.
