Any news on when the Q1 GUI project is going to be completed. Eagerly waiting for it.... Hoping it by January or early..

I was very wrong at all kind of Crypto speculations. But I give tiny chances that GUI will be out after 5th January.

the gui is likely already priced in
xmr is a nice project ,my only worry is so many other coins are coming to the party
with privacy features ......
hopefully the XMr network effect will be too strong.......


Really, any already announced features have already been priced in by the market...

Id say it is a more mature coin, also a strength for BTC.

Creeping up now with the imminent wallet and so on.

Monero does have some competition now with all the new coins and with the price of bitcoin increasing the price is expected to go down further unless and until new dark markets starts accepting Monero.

Traditionally this time of the year has been good for Monero. No matter how much bitcoin express has been trolling, the price wants to go up during the Q1.

The sell orders seems to be lower compared to the past few months which I guess is a good sign. That could mean that people are not willing to sell their XMR for cheap.

We seem to be heading upwards, at least for the next month ;O.

I disagree that DNM usage is what is *really needed*. All usage is good, but DNM users have so many (arguably more important) OPSEC vectors to close that their choice of currency is just one of these factors.

Instead, I predict a possible big usage of Monero could be in crypto locker ransoms. There have been reports of people running these operations being traced via their acceptance of BTC. (can't find source offhand but I've seen it somewhere). These operators are leaking the most data through their usage of BTC so it would stand that they benefit the most from closing up that gap.


DNM use depends on low volatility and proper ways to get the coins traded into real value. This means: The adaptation will be slow and steady or not at all.

So do you guys think Jaxx having Monero integration is enough to push up the price, or do we need to wait for an "official" wallet to really raise the price?
(Or are we already priced-in to the anticipation of a wallet?)
I've never used Jaxx wallet and I'm wondering if anyone has extensive experience with it, and if adding a GUI will prompt more places to accept Monero.
(Which is all I think we really need to break the $10 price point.)

What Monero really needs is more acceptance among the drug dealers and merchants in the darknet. How is the situation of XMR at Alphabay? The last time I checked, someone said that XMR use is not increasing. In fact it is decreasing because some of the merchants have stopped accepting it. Let us hope that this new upgrade will make both buyers and sellers start doing payment experiments with Monero.

If they start doing that the next question would be, will they start using it also as a store of value or will they convert immediately to bitcoin?

This is a mandatory upgrade that is required for the hard fork that is scheduled for January 05, 2017 and also for the GUI. Thanks.

v0.10.1 point release up on Github. According to the latest dev meeting logs, this was the only thing holding back the GUI.

I think Jaxx gave up. Scuttlebutt is they wanted the XMR devs to write it for them.

Correct me if I'm wrong guys. Smiley

Jaxx will never gave up. They are a company.  But they will try to get everything as cheap as possible if not free.

Saw that from Jaxx's twitter, was posted 10 hours ago:

"Jaxx
‏@jaxx_io
@LunaGoons Yes! We're working very hard on the #XMR integration!
8:45 AM - 12 Dec 2016"
