I'd also support reviving COMM. It was a good idea.

Failures like rational bubbles (stock market bubbles) are also part of the theory. I think we've seen a nice example for that part Smiley.

Can't see my GAME deposit. BTC is there, but GAME is still missing since last evening.
I hope the game developers are better than the developer of the ICO site... :/

This is all FUD mate. Vlad and the monero core team are still here, and I've seen posts from Muddafudda as well Smiley. BTW where's BCX?

By replacing the now() function for today() function the CoinmarketCapHTML tab is working, but the script also need to be fixed.

The question is even, whether a coin, looking to serve privacy, needs to be "mass adopted".  I would think it is better if not.  Of course, you need some market cap for sure, but this is now largely sufficient for those needing to do private transactions amongst them I'd think.  And honestly, if you can't handle a CLI, then maybe "private transactions on the internet" is not something you should consider in the first place.

Of course, an opposite argument is, the more people use it, the more "anonymity set" you get.  But also the more attention you get, the more silly "demand for regulation" you get from disgruntled idiots using it not for matters of privacy, and, worst case, traders wanting it to be as regularized as possible in order for them to be able to use it as much in finance as a gamblers' token as they can.

As there is a steadily growing demand for privacy and the privacy of financial activities is an integral part of that, Monero could come handy. I do understand your concerns about idiots and demands for regulation, but do you really want to surrender most of the market to DASH and Zcash because of them? BTW idiots, business folks, lawyers and their demands can be easily kept at bay as long as the devs and most of the community stick to their principles.

Oh I see qwizzie, the dash-trash BCT PR is on 24h duty again creating threads against definitely better coins than his instamined multiple rebranded to hide the scam shitcoin.
I asked multiple times where is the dash trash used and I either get banned or ignored - but no answer. Here is a comparison of google trends between monero search and dashcoin. Only "dash" is on purpose not included:
https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?q=dashpay,monero,dash%20coin

Dash trash broken btc copy-paste has only PRs and hypes created by the easy to integrate copy-paste code, but no solid grounds to step on and build anything new and useful. Yes it is for now faster than monero like it is faster to get robbed in the ghetto ( and btw Monero instant transactions are being currently developped ).  Noone uses dash practically, just btc whales use it as a hedge because most dashcoins are locked in the centralization called masternodes who get a huge reward without doing anything and this will be as long as the btc whales manipulate the market with their huge pump and dump possibility of their massive deposits of the old overpriced and broken bitcoin.

Well, this topic is about Monero, not about DASH.


Moneros Achilles' heel is the constant shilling and spam it got in the past. There are a lot of traders and crypto user who avoid it just because of it's past.

Some nice illustration above Smiley. Indeed some monero supporters tend to be overzealous and that tend to be counterproductive.
189  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Monero's Achilles' heel ? on: April 23, 2017, 12:59:44 PM
You have a point, but I think you're not understanding something. Why is Monero's price not increasing? Because the market does not believe it is worth more than its current price. While a GUI would make no difference to many supporters, it would interest a large amount of Bitcoin users. In order for it to become more widely adopted, it needs to attract many people, not just the diehard anonymity supporters who don't mind using something inconvenient like command prompt.

I've told the monero fanboys a couple of times back in 2015 and 2016 that XMR can be the best coin, it can cure cancer and do miracles but it not going to gain widespread support and adoption, until the client isn't easy to handle even for my grandmother, and only a few fans and a bunch of stoners knows about it's existence.
Two things made Microsoft big (however Windows always been a trash): 1. easy to use GUI, 2. Tons of marketing. ...and that's why DASH is doing better than XMR now, despite the clunky technology and all the questionable activities around the launch. Back then they never listened, nowadays as I see at least they put together a good client.

According to this: https://gunthy.org/index.php?topic=124.0 you don't have to pay if you only using the Poloniex module. If you want to trade on Kraken and/or Bittrex too, then you have to buy a license for each new module. Pretty much the same as the licensing model what CAT using.

Great news! Can't wait to try the new version.
192  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥[GUNBOT] Automatic Poloniex Profit Generator🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 on: April 18, 2017, 04:58:55 PM
hello,

can somebody help an beginner ?

wich coins are all-time good and wich settings are good ?
wich coins should i not use wich gunbot, atm ?

i have read really much about gunbot .....

are this setting universal good ?

do your everytime look in the statistics and only choose the pairs wich the most volume ?


The bad news: there are no all time good coins. All coins are getting pumped and dumped in a cyclical manner as money moving from coin to coin.

Generally speaking don't go for:
- new coins
- coins with less than 2-300 BTC/day volume. (The higher the volume the more difficult to manipulate the price and make sudden big moves.)
- coins being pumped
- coins been pumped recently and now down-spiralling
- coins where the spread between bids and asks very small (you have a good chance to be caught in a dump)
- if folks in the trollbox babbling about "more cheap XYZ coins for me", "last chance for cheap XYZ coins", "XYZ to da moon", "XYZ noob trap" then stay away from that stuff

Try to find a coin with -ideally- a relative straight, saw blade shaped chart. Of course you'll still have a chance to get caught in a P&D, when someone find that your coin of choice wasn't pumped since ages, so it's ripe for mass raping.

I'm still testing different settings, so I can't comment on that part.

I used to take a look at the order books and the charts on Polo then choose my pairs daily, sometimes twice a day
193  Other / Politics & Society / Re: ### Initial Coin Offering for political party, would you support it? ### on: April 17, 2017, 06:52:08 AM
Such party can support and promote:
- Visa-free travelling
- Free education
- Equal life quality level worldwide
- Discussion and removal of all sharp question
- Technological fixing of security issues, globally
- Global medical care
- Removal of military forces worldwide
- Global democracy

1. "If it seems too good to be true, it probably is." So this would look like a scam.
2. Politicians are well known scammers.

Conclusion: I wouldn't buy into it.

Chinese airline Air China is the only foreign carrier that flew to North Korea, canceled all flights. Thus, to date, the only airline that will carry out air transportation to North Korea will remain their airline Air Koryo. The sky tipped. The air smells of war.

I am surprised to hear that they were even flying to North Korea before this cancellation. I always thought North Korea as a closed box where no-one can get in or out.  Tongue Anyway the decision is right, you don't wanna make trips to the possible enemy country. Imagine what would happen if a war comes out of nowhere while the Chinese tourists are in Korea. Instant free captives for N. Korea.

Here you go:

One of my colleges been there two years ago and apart from the tons of kimchi (what he found too spicy) he enjoyed his trip. If you respect the local law and not breaking the rules, everything will be all right.

There would be only one nation that would remotely resemble NK's situation... and that is israel.

With the exception that israel doesnt blackmail their neighbourhood with a nuclear holocaust, let their citizens starve or put hundred thousands of civilians in nazi germany style KZ's.

Except if those citizens of theirs happened to be palestinians and living at the Gaza strip or the West bank. Otherwise Israel didn't blackmail their neighbourhood with a nuclear holocaust indeed...err...maybe with a few exceptions... like Lebanon ('82), Iraq ('91, '01-'03), Iran (ongoing) Wink.

Really?  You're going to compare Israel to NK?

Lol...

The bragging, arrogant rhetoric of NK is really like nothing else in the world today, perhaps with the exception of ISIS or Iran.

I'm not comparing Israel to NK. Actually Criptix brought it up, I just fixed a few historical inaccuracies.

You might want to add the US to that list of countries with "bragging, arrogant rhetoric"... Wink

The Chinese would be much more concerned than the Russians. The Russo-Korean border is only a few kilometers long, and I don't think that the NATO will install bases anyway near that narrow strip of land. On the other hand, the Sino-Korean border runs through three strategically important provinces of China.

Indeed, China would be quite upset to find that the US and SK armies started building bases next to their borders.
Only a few kilometers long you said. Well for example the Isthmus of Perekop was also only a few kilometres wide, Mannstein however somehow managed to push through a fairly big army on it, and Vladivostok not much farther from the NK border than Sevastopol was from Perekop. So I don't think the Russians would be happy bunnies.

China tell him he changes his ways and we want inspections in his country OR HE DIES..

Well, and next week what country do you guys want change and  let inspectors in? ...and after that? BTW could you tell me please, if the Russians and the Chinese will be allowed to do the same on any chosen country where they don't like the ways as the locals living Smiley?

If Iran and the DPRK succeeds in building nuclear weapons (It seems to me that the North Koreans have already succeeded in doing it), then the blame must fall on the United States. The arrogance of the Americans is the reason why more and more countries are pursuing nuclear ambition now.

Well, if you have nukes and something what can take it to US soil, then even the US will politely knock on your door instead of kicking it in and bringing you love, freedom, democracy in 500 lbs packages (or sometimes 21600 lbs packages if their Viagra stock running low). So yes, having nukes and rockets is a lucrative option for everyone who have natural resources what the US might need, I guess.

Who didn't know that the Republicans would "wag the dog" once they got into office? They start wars every time they are elected. It is an easy read! There WILL BE WAR; mark my words. Syria was just the beginning.
Personally I of anything bad do not see this. If the whole world is afraid and says nothing, then someone needs to show their strength and to destroy a dictator who threatens the world with nuclear war. If this is not done now then it will be even more death and destruction.


Are you aware of that NK offered peace terms twice to Obama and once to Trump and also offered halting their nuke program in exchange for suspending the US/SK/Jap military exercises on their borders? Of course they were instantly turned down every time. Just Google it.
