monero's getting better; zcash isn't (duh)
Monero is one of the best privacy coin in market and i respect the development with strategies implemented by the team lately  but you shouldnt compare the price of the coins because they both have there own enthusiasts. With that been said, Zcash is currently having a problem (some expert said it not that privacy as people believed) right now which was what i believe triggered it dump in price though i dont know if the claim is genuine cause i dont follow the coin.

What do you mean 'one of'?  It's the one and only really super mega best privacy coin out there. 
Youre right about that but i said one of best cause we also have others privacy coin which is doing well either.

I really don't get why everybody isn't getting into it.  I mean yeah sure, BTC...  It's the biggest.  But XMR complements BTC if you want to hide your stash.
It appears panic is the reason why some people don't get into it due to the false statement made by McAfee about privacy coins while he's (McAfee) trying to pump his shit privacy coin and with the new development and simultaneously solution implemented by XMR team things should be good in a couple of weeks.

My theory of why so many people group these other coins with xmr as ‘privacy coins’ is because of all the other btc forks of the past. You could technically make the argument that 98% of all coins out there are ‘transparency’ coins (I.e. litecoin, doge, etc.), ‘smart contract’ coins which should be in its own category, and then ‘privacy coins’ that run any other algo and has some sort of shield tx/mimble wimble/mixing feature, etc.

I feel people group them the same way people group certain stocks together, because unfortunately people don’t go past surface level research on these things and only look at short term profit margins.
I'm afraid you absolutely right because i was once on the exact page when I'm inexperienced and the same thing still happen till now for there are few people in the market that perform in-depth research about the crypto they want to invest in while 95% of investors only invest base on hype and misleading articles/news.
XMR still standout in the privacy market though

Despite the nifty technology in Zcash, it's been just privacy theater from the beginning.  And the "founder's reward" is one of the smelliest shitpiles in all of crypto.  For some reason Zooko comes across as such a sweet humble cryptographer who just feels so good now that he can buy groceries.  And I am sure that is what convinced Gemini to list it.  Not a chunk of the founder's reward.

For some reason Zooko has me blocked on Twitter... I can't imagine why.

There is a reason current darknet markets take, and prefer Monero.

Not really about Monero, but still hot because it cant be about Monero Smiley

https://bitrankverified.com/home

BitRank Verified®, a scoring mechanism for digital currencies.
Individuals want to be able to have a level of confidence that the bitcoin addresses with which they are sending or receiving coins have not been use by a criminal element before a transaction takes place and this is what BitRank® offers.

BitRank®, users are able to perform a single address lookup using our website or using our proprietary API module. Each lookup provides a safety score between 0 and 100. Bitcoin wallets that are flagged with a higher risk profile are given a lower score, whereas lower risk profile wallets receive a higher BitRank® score.




Oh you have only 3 tries per day. They probably sell this service or plan to sell.

These things don't work (thank god lol). Tongue

Oh it's gonna work..  But just not that well.  There are gonna be a lot of addresses ranked low or high by mistake and what it's really doing is hurting BTC's fungibility.  I mean really..  Wasn't it one of the primary reasons why why Cryptonote was developed?

Like how BTC slapped everybody behind the head to wake them up and see what's up, XMR is gonna do the same thing all over again.

Nah, just from word of mouth.  Ric was just aware of what had happened so I took his word for it.

Yes, and it's a big one - Bithumb.

Do not forget that all Korean exchanges have international and local Korean exchange. Monero is listed on all international ones. https://www.bithumb.pro/en-us/spot/trade?q=XMR-USDT  It says $1.7 million volume today.  Of course none of us were able to trade on Koran Bithumb anyway.

^  F**kin journos making it bigger than it really is could cost us.  I heard another exchange delisted XMR.  They just couldn't handle the pressure from the government cos they can't do anythng.  XMR is so good with privacy and the only choice is to get rid of it than continue dealing with it.

Yes, and it's a big one - Bithumb.

It's a real shame that they show the world they don't care about privacy and try to blame the coin for the actions of its users. This is never a good idea to find a scapegoat and call the case closed.

Its all one specific country. One where freedom is not as taken for granted as it is for us.

The big scandal will get sorted but sure enough Monero is doing its job because they probably failing to trace all the involved parties, at least through that method.

Woohoo, maybe we will get some XMR volume on our XChange! Tongue

No KYC, no frozen funds, no MIA deposits *knocks on wood*, basically instant withdrawals as the hot wallet permits.

It's a good arena.

I just find it hard to blame a whole coin because of a few bad actors... people willing to delist something over one bad apple are a good crowd to get rid of anyways IMO.

Well fuck them, maybe it will get the DEX community in gear.
