I think some ETH holders are still in denial.  The time to jump ship was the first 2 weeks.  That frontier release was just a questionable move.  It was obvious they were rushing it.

On another note...  There was a known oldschool bitcoiner who sold 'Ethereum futures' speculating that it would crash.  There was a thread about it somewhere.  I guess he made a killing.

They shorted.  Aren't they making BTC profit as the price goes down?

And it was mircea_popescu who sold Ethereum futures I think.

Thats the sense of shorting, the further it goes down the more they makeas they need less money to buy back the ETH they´ve lend earlier.

True, I didn't say otherwise.  But the point is the "shorts" are making money because the trend is going down.

I'm open to anything.  But what I won't do is speculate, anticipate, predict and "react" to what I think the market is doing.  No one can predict the market.  Or at least I can't.  :D

There are many people that think that Monero is destined for a far greater market valuation than Ethereum.

Market cap parity is not my focus right now. I want to help foster adoption as development continues.  This recent idea once implemented should establish Monero as the clear leader in blockchain privacy once and for all:

1 ETH = 1 XMR is only one step on the downward trend of ETH. I actually expect ETH to fall below DASH in capitalization or 1 ETH = 0.46 XMR at current valuations.

Nothing will happen. The "shitcoin" will go and die with the rest of them. All of you have seen this so many times before and yet still hope that this time will be "different"

ETH isn't necessarily a shitcoin. It has lots of good ideas and inventions and it could be a great stuff once (if) it will be completed and fully functional. I think rushing it into "service" and putting it to the exchanges in an early alpha stage was a pretty bad idea. I guess the devs run out of money and they needed a quick pump and dump, plus the "investors" also pressurized them (probably because of the same reasons).

1 ETH will be 1 XMR within a few days. But I think ETH still has potential if it is managed properly.

I have seen XMR with higher value than ETH a few months ago when ETH was newly released onto exchanges but it did not last long.
A huge pump to 0.0088 when dropping now.

the coins are too different to even compare in price, IMO there is no market for ETH, at least not yet, but the world is in need of a true e-cash - thats Monero and it has a place.

I have 10 ETH :)

For the time being, 1 ETH = 1.5 XMR. Eth has larger community. The trade volume is much higher.

The reason for running out of money and the pressuring was being almost a year late with little to show for it. The release wasn't what hurt the project, the release was the result of the project being run into the ground by mismanagement.

Also, ETH has nothing to do with XMR. Stop reverse trolling, it's blatantly obvious.

No, it won't change anything. They have very different user bases.

Actually, it's just starting.  We'll see if this is a breakout or not in the coming days.  Bought a little bit at .0027 - .0028.  But I'm ready to let go at a small loss if current run goes in reverse.

The trend is reversing. We might see 1 Eth =2 XMR in a few week's time. The price direction can change in such short period.

Can someone explain to me the reasoning behind this question? I can't seem to find one.

Breakout ladies and gentlemen!

Do you mean Eth?

There is no break out for Monero. Maybe a little later, XMR price will rise. Let be patient.

Of course, obviously ETH...
