Just wondering, are they fluoridating your water? No, that's why I am so clear-headed compared to the average goons you try to mentally pickpocket on a daily basis.

You didn't make it. I like this: I think the key is to get the big players involved. Imagine if PayPal started to accept bitcoins. It's game over for other currencies.
You're right, I totally spaced. I'm gonna save it for Monday morning. Hope you don't mind if I open it with the quote you just pasted, its a good one.

+100. Fee is way too high compared too others. Why is this the case?
That is because XMR has future. It is different from other altcoins, whose life span is just months. Exactly right. If you are designing for long term soundness and viability you can't have tiny transaction fees that pretend blockchain transactions are nearly free, when they are not. Sounds like a load of horseshit to me. PS: Why do you think you have credibility here still? You've done nothing but spew lies and propaganda about Monero for the last 6 months. You've cost countless people money and all for what? You've just been wrong time after time after time, yet you still think your opinion matters. Why?

Still down after 4+ hours with no more Twitter updates. I would almost say its time to start the conspiracies but this is probably the best time of day to be down, if you have to be.

What is going on with these multiple weed coins getting so much volume and gaining 400-500% in a day or two? I mean there must be a dozen of them by now, as if CannabisCoin, GanjaCoin, PotCoin, WeedCoin, MarijuanaCoin wasn't enough of a joke, now this MaryJaneCoin ? LOL No, not Potcoin, trust me. Edit: ooh its up 22%, not bad... Most of them will go back down. It all depends on who can successfully integrate their coin with the dispensary market first. You can guess where my money is...

I went too soft on Wall Street in my last post.
If Wall Street was useless to society, that would be an improvement.

People have no idea how lack of regulation have been running down crypto. Vast majority of existing crypto 'heavy weights' have vested interest in demonizing regulations mainly because it would cut them off from doing their profiteering.
The regulation is going to be written by Wall Street, which is a far more corrupt and world-destroying entity than crypto, because they operate under the pretense that they are good and necessary and aren't evil shits (which the vast majority are -- evil, spoiled, unnecessary shits, deadset on making the world a worse place to live in during their lifetimes). Here, its just a freeforall with no pretense. To me thats the more honorable option. Exchanges have been running on hot air and lack of reserves for too long, and they will be swept aside.
I have no idea if this is true or not but I hope for their sake its not.

Sometimes, it's interesting to see how ignorant some people are of reality. In their mind, they can move markets and is the center of the universe. NYC? Some fishing town...
Yeah unless you consider gross domestic product, trading activity and the fact that it is the 12th biggest economy in the world. I think you are underestimating the gravity of their pull. Weren't you around in 2008?

Backed by means you can exchange it for a fixed amount of the underlying asset. Fixed amount means that no matter how many currency units are presented for redemption, each one of them will be exchanged for a fixed amount of the underlying asset. If there is not enough of the underlying asset, it's called the system is operating on fractional reserve.
That makes sense and I admit I didn't know the proper definition of the term. But still, why would you want BTC to drop when the value of NXT would drop with it? NXT is tied to BTC until the majority of it is traded in fiat.

Next was the first coin if I remember correct to be 100% premined.
See the shitty state of crypto? Partial blame relies on NXT.
I dunno... I can see your point with all the clones and whatnot, but I choose to think of it more as the first decentralized stock offering. Saying something is 100% premine doesn't really make sense because it still infers that there is some sort of mining going on. Definitely new blocks are being added to the blockchain and there is a payout involved but its not "mining" in the classic crypto sense of the word. I do agree that the counterargument that POS encourages hoarding goes rather unchallenged. It simply encourages the "NXT wealthy" to get more NXT, which I guess would help keep the price up as there is less incentive to sell off initial stake. But at the same time it discourages faster distribution. If NXT had better distribution, would it be more respected? Unfortunately if quick distribution does happen in the only way I can imagine the price will drop and then you'll get a new batch of critics. So, its a slow and gentle process but not a failure by any stretch of imagination. To me it definitely still has real-world integration potential, a feature many newer coins are sorely lacking.

Aw mang. Hey this was a fun thread I'm glad I came across it. Many a spread were not covered on this day.

He scared you guys half to death. Some of you had full-on meltdowns in public. It was hilarious and entertaining. I guess more people should have paid attention to you.
Lol when did I have a full in melt down?
Some of you had full-on meltdowns in public.
I called it from the first day he made his XMR "attack" public.
Good for you, you're quite the prognosticator. I was one of the few calling BCX out. His response was if I don't bet 500 BTC then I am irrelevant. Lol
Should have taken his bet. Even if he successfully pulled off an exploit attack on XMR today or in a few weeks it would not impress one bit as he put a time limit on himself of 22 days after making it appear to be initially to be 3 days.
Apparently it isn't necessary to impress you in order to drive the price of Monero into a downward spiral.

Man, so much to keep up on... Every day its like a new episode of American Greed is unfolding here in real-time.
Thanks for the summary Micro Guy!

You do have to wonder how the Josh Zeidner / Moneroman88 thing fits into the whole scenario.
It seems like maybe somebody paid the both of them to put on a fake fight?

Nothing brilliant about it as I called it from the first day he made his "kill XMR" claims. I even posted two links showing how he did the same thing in 2012 to litecoin and flaked out on it.

The fact is, the World looks to New York for guidance as it relates to financial and banking regulation Yeah, no. World doesn't. In fact, most of the world looks at US to see how NOT to do regulation... Yes but most finance of the world is in the US, so you have no choice but to pay attention. For example, the total market cap of the NYSE and NASDAQ far supersedes that of every other stock exchange in the world put together. Its not even close. If the US economy takes a hit, the world economy takes a hit. This is why Wall Street banker, trader and fund manager types are commonly referred to as " the masters of the universe."

Is quantum gravity a theory of quantized spacetime, or is spacetime only an approximation valid in a certain regime? What are the fundamental degrees of freedom? Is there a well-defined Hilbert space for the universe, and what is its dimensionality? Is time evolution fundamental, or does time emerge from correlations within a static state?
I measure time by the rate of decay... of Monero. So I don't see how he could have benefited from this, even if his goal was to buy "cheap xmr" we are already cheaper so he would be in red.
He got paid to do it. He even said he did. Yeah, and he also said that he didn't do this for the money. Which one is it? Maybe he got paid in something other than money? Fuck it, he did it for the lulz. Who cares. Next time, don't be so imposing and boisterous in the promotion of your coin. Maybe not you specifically, but that was definitely the plan.

Of course I support cryptocurrency usage. I'm talking specifically about crypto in video games, which clearly do not need it to succeed.
What needs crypto to in order to succeed? Bitcoin startup companies.
