Aren't you worried it becomes impossible to compete with darkcoin for the 1st place among anonymous coins?

No. D is no competition to Monero. Everybody in here knows that, you as well. Think longterm, be patient, stop trolling. Thanks.

It is a direct competitor to Monero (pretty much the only relevant one).
The fact that there is a premine is not an argument that it is not a competition... Etherium is not Monero's competitor (at least in direct way).
According to the charts the triangle should be closed in around 2 weeks or so and after it there is time for some major action (up or down - the tea leafs are not telling the direction to me).
Right now it looks like Dark coin has taken a premium against Monero so let's see if we can catch it and go beyond Darkcoin.

Gold is scarce and has a finite supply.

No it doesn't. Gold mining is a competitive market, and eventually it will be less expensive to mine from space than to mine from the ground. And after that it will become less expensive to simply "create" gold than to mine it at all. Rest assured, the gold supply will never stop expanding.

100 years ago Germans had plan to produce Gold from the Oceans. They did not succeed that much. But that dont mean at some point technology will improve that much that getting gold from the Oceans will  become profitable.

Gold have infinity supply limited by technology.
Monero have infinity supply that is calculated precisely forever.

Gold is scarce and has a finite supply, the fact that some of it has not yet being discovered doesn't make gold infinite - it simply means some of gold is hidden from human eyes - in the very same way is bitcoin is limited to 21 million but currently 16.2 million is mined.

Stop asking that question here... move over the the Darkcoin Threads

If we want to bring Monero to the eyes of the investors with serious money it need to be introduced to them.
Everyone that feels like he want to contribute to this can do so by suggesting Monero to Your local bankers as an asset class in form of a fund.
Bitcoin is introduced as a digital gold bullion but also Monero can fit into the same role (despite the supply of Monero is infinite unlike the supply of gold/bitcoin).

Have you suggested monero to your local bankers?

If so, what was the response?

If not, why haven't you?

I send an email to local one, not yet answer. I do not hold my breath they will start one because I asked. However, there is such a thing as repetition. The more there are people asking the more likely something is going to happen.

Gold is being mined all the time - it is rare (on earth) but more will be found, or could be extracted.   

Bitcoin is finite, yes - unless it forks into two 'Bitcoins' over problems which Monero solves....

Monero solves the problem of miners having no incentive to secure the network once all coins are mined, by having a low 'tail emission' which is minimal, but enough to allow for lost coins and the miner / security problem.

To simply say Monero has infinite supply is a little simplistic - as is suggesting we all go to our local bank branch and suggest a Monero ETF to the teller behind the window.

Please think before you type, if you wish people coming here to see that Monero holders are intelligent and think of their coin positively?

Please do not suggest funds to your cashier who most likely has no power to do anything but sell stock mutual funds and open bank accounts.
When they see there is demand for such products they have incentives to do something for it. The worst thing that can happen is they say no.

Would you expect a short term 0.012 BTC?
I´m trying to decide where to go:)

Volume on buy side increasing on Polo/

D-coin is only 200 BTC ahead on daily volume, let's see if we can return to more normal levels...

XMR is WAY oversold, about time for an upwards correction Wink

As Coindesk articles go, it's not too bad:

"Privacy has become an important consideration in blockchain protocols and old and new networks alike are establishing themselves at the forefront of the field.

While some may have sidelined monero as a legacy cryptocurrency, enthusiastic developers like Riccardo Spagni remain evangelistic toward monero and continue to champion its potential, 2016 metrics and current market cap standing in 2017.

Monero now has the sixth largest market cap in the cryptocurrency space, one position above ethereum classic and $20m away from eclipsing litecoin. Developers like Spagni continue to emphasize the sizable increases in monero’s transactional growth over its price, which peaked around $14 in early Q3 2016.

The presumptive explanation for renewed interest in monero is arguably the cultural shift towards privacy on the blockchain, a foundational element of the monero protocol.

Monero’s uniqueness comes from its implementation of a cryptographic tool known as ‘ring signatures’ that allow users to send and receive funds without the transaction details being revealed on the blockchain."

I can live with that Wink

Margin trading is not try your luck gambling, but try your unluck.  So you will win most times, but when you will fail you will really fail.


LOL yup... similar to the "Martingale Strategy" in casino gambling which is a net long term loser but still catches a lot of people who falsely believe in it.

This is where you double your bet after every loss, and as long as you have a huge bankroll it's really easy to win just a little almost every time.  Assume you have $1,025 to play with and you only bet a dollar starting out, $1 $2 $4 $8 $16 $32 $64 $128 $256 $512 -- you'll have to lose TEN BETS in a ROW to finally lose all your money, but before that you'll make a dollar each time, as long as you're only losing NINE in a row, at most.

You can pick up pennies in front of the steamroller like this for a little while until eventually you WILL get that tenth-in-a-row loss, and the steamroller flattens you LOL

UPDATE: more than 2k XMR in BUY positions visible in top 20 orders - buy signal for those who want to enter before they execute.
LOL, it's a fake wall (and very cheap due of margin) and it always disappears when it's need. Now monero goes parallel to btc and btc goes down.

In the short term the price will oscillate but by the end of 2017 I see it much higher, at least $100.

That's why whis thread is called speculation, so we can multiply this profit even more whenever it goes up or down.
It is great that price is going down, so we can short and then buy more, I don't understand why people are feeling insecure about that.
Monero is great so we are 100% sure that it will succeed thus making for us an ultimate safe bet wile picking it after every single downfall.
Consider yourself being a DASH owner, you would literally shit your pants while betting on it at any time, because who knows what might happen at any moment when some big fish might decide to cash it all out.

And for those interested, we see a large sell orders on POLY hanging around spread gap (USDT - POLO), so very interesting ride.

Because this is crypto and not some industry where takes months or even years that something happens. When you shorth, few good news can happen and you stay with zero Monero and a debt in Monero and price gets few times higher.

Margin trading is not try your luck gambling, but try your unluck.  So you will win most times, but when you will fail you will really fail.
