Title: Are cryptocoin economies entering a deflationary phase ?
Post by: s1gs3gv on August 03, 2015, 11:56:01 PM
From an interesting article I read on zerohedge, regarding the 'real' global economy, (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-08-03/largest-financial-departure-reality-human-history (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-08-03/largest-financial-departure-reality-human-history))

"Commodities priced below the cost of production for most producers is exactly what one would expect in a deflation, as a combination of supply glut and lack of purchasing power drastically undercut price support. "

Are we entering a similar deflationary era in cryptocoin economies ?

What economy?  ;D

To be serious, no new money is coming in.  Most of the 'dumb' money already went to the sharks, so we need more fish in the pond to make the 'economy' grow.  But I personally don't see it happening in a while.

I expect some nerd money to enter xmr ecosystem once cryptokingdom launches, then that will start a suction effect from some lesser coins into monero .
