Topic: [XMR] Monero Speculation - page 499. (Read 3314316 times)

Well, to be honest... I am pretty Monero over-heavy in my XMR/BTC ratio.  I am currently under my minimum percentage of total BTC goal currently due to dumping it all into XMR on the way down this slide.

In fact I have been as tempted as I ever have been to sell some XMR to get me back to that psychological BTC number.  I've been a little over exuberant buying recently.

The funny thing is, I almost sold some just a couple days ago, but I could not live with the thought that the idiot trolling might have had some subconscious effect.  Which meant it made me hold even a little tighter.  Not sure this was the intended effect, and frankly I am ashamed that it got to me, even if it was to make me hold.

And I have to admit, even while the USD gains made in XMR are steady, the BTC slide has been painful.

I wish I had more to get more but everytime I think we are at the bottom we ain't.

I had the same exact thought as I prepared my original reply. Nearly.

I do believe that his response was due to an epic reading comprehension failure.

Although I'm sure he is correct about the accumulating comment just minus any fud. Lol

W0w when this Bubble blows it's going to be epic! Hope I can hold on that long.

Quick question... Can you point out where I am "FUDing"?

Multi-sig lost the "Do Not Merge" banner   

Speculation: I think it's a variation of the reverse trolling campaigns we've seen many times before. An adversary (tptb, usual suspects, hostile TLAs, Zcash/Ethereum/Dash etc etc) seeks to paint Monero as a dysfunctional community of vandals. Mission: "Associate Monero with an air of impropriety & transgression & barbarism." Goal: Maximal accumulation of the world's only truly fungible digital cash.

Someone played the conspiracy card in regards to Monero's wikipage--though I have a hunch that was to pique conspiracy minded folk enough to click on a pm that was mass executed on reddit with some dubious links--I'm sure a few noobs were baited enough to be caught in the phishing attempt.

Only the usual Monero-trolling counter-trolling. Everything's fine.

I checked the weekly BTC chart just to realize that the price retraced a 100% from ATH in 10 weeks. We can now proudly call us a common pump&dump! 
Honestly I don't remember the price being in the reds for so long, BTC frenzy sucking all fortune seekers in.

To me it shows how early stage XMR still is, no doubt there will be a morning of awareness for lots of people once the imperative necessity of fungibility kicks in.
Time is our best friend.

Ok...  I haven't dropped in here in a couple of weeks.  And I'm quite surprised Fluffy Pony is in here typing in all caps.  So something must def be up.

Too lazy to back read right now as I'm in a noisy bus trying to get home.  Can anyone give me the tldr version?

Meh. Lots of enemy, lots of honor.

And: time to bring this back out for ponder and perspective.


By Rudyard Kipling


If you can keep your head when all about you   
    Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,   
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
    But make allowance for their doubting too;   
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
    Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,
    And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;   
    If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;   
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
    And treat those two impostors just the same;   
If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
    Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
    And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
    And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
    And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
    To serve your turn long after they are gone,   
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
    Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,   
    Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
    If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
    With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,   
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,   
    And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!

I'll be watching for further off-topic or trolling comments. I usually use a light touch on moderation as long as it doesn't get out of hand.

Deleted one. Did not contribute constructively to the topic and also was violating the forum rules against multiple consecutive posts


And another (off topic, coin shilling)...

The night is darkest just before the dawn. Buy time soon

That's it, walonek is the first troll in this thread I'm ignoring. You can literally feel your IQ going down a few points when you read his posts.

This mixture of cruel intentions, bad English and profanities is really toxic.

Analitical troll as you describe me Is Fucking RIGHT. One leg to 0.01. if 0.01 does not hold then 0.006 happens soon. Prediction of total fall is sure for 70%. Any bigger bounceback upto 0.02. Only after it breaks 0.015 from bottom for good otherwise 0.006 and maybe then will be good time to buy. MAYBE cause who knows when shit hits the fan. Looks like even news like bithumb was sold and made shit of monero. Only one and good news was the AlphaBay acceptance. But now AlphaBay does not exist and so starts to happen to nomore.

How do you fell moroneros sitting with hot potato ShortMeMore? Do you have fried hands already?  Or you cant read me cause i am fucking god damn right? Noone except me shorted to Btc at 0.02 lvls? Not even at 0.016? Noone? Is here so many stupid faithfull belivers wearing a hot suit of ShortMeMore?

Is is speculation thread or ShortMeMore mental support thread for Nomore priests? How do you love to miss opportunities?

Reading this thread i noticed even Pope FluffyPope cant hold mentaly the situation that efforts of NoMore propaganda is total shit. Just look at price. Scam to the core. But this made great opportunity to short this NOMORE AND god said it was good.

I love this charts. Sorry but I'll sell Monero at $1000.  

EDIT: Then buy back at $300. 

Hey, Is there anyway we can figure out where all these dumped coins are coming from? As in polo's loaning market or any other method?

This shit is getting truly horrendous for us believers that longed. We need a lifeline or at least a glimps at the end of the tunnel.

Exactly. Use knowledge/wisdom/intuition to identify something valuable. Buy when the waters are receding. Laugh at how awful it feels to do so. This discomfort is a measure of the potential reward, since others will feel it too; blood is on the streets. Few can bring themselves to do this.

Well, the trolls certainly got a reaction! Far better trolling than what we've been seeing lately, I give it a 6.5/10.

Agreed! Can't the moderater just block him? I just don't understand why he is taking time to talk bad about Monero. If he likes other coins more, just leave us
