He said what, not how Umm... point is, anything you can pay for with bitcoin you can buy with Monero using XMR.TO So it's kind of a meaningless question, really: the answer is pretty much "anything you want" now that is not true... you can buy anything through xmr.to as binaryfate and the gang have btc on stock...

Serious question: How do those of you who support the Monero project, i.e. want it to succeed, justify selling moneroj at this embryonic stage of the ecosystem's development? Doesn't selling moneroj weaken the Monero project by demoralizing and disincentivizing the entire ecosystem?
I'm not judging anyone here, just curious how traders who are also supporters of the Monero project (and not just profiteers) think. I'm a hodler by temperament.
I don't sell Monero, I spend it. Of course I have a holding stash and a spending stash, you might say. It makes me feel good to do at least one Monero transaction per day. Buying, selling, just keep the funds moving! Using Monero is what makes the economy grow. It's fantastic. I am curious to know what are you buying with Monero? https://xmr.tohttps://shapeshift.io/legacy/?pair=XMR_BTCHe said what, not how

If we get 100 USD XMR we would be looking at a fundamentally very different situation from now since that would place the market capitalization of Monero at over 1.3 Billion USD with Monero in second place behind Bitcoin. That means for example the major Bitcoin / fiat exchanges, Bitcoin payment processors etc will no longer be able to ignore Monero.
I must admit, I cannot see why other exchanges, given the volume Monero has in BTC on Polo, have not already listed Monero. Is being 'truly private money' actually an issue for exchanges, or just the GUI - surely they would want the business? At some point they must take it on - but do we really have to wait until over a billion USD market cap for it to be a no-brainer? The best reasons that I've heard is. 1) Its difficult to integrate. Jaxx (a wallet / exchange service) has apparently put like 80% of its effort into integrating Monero over the past month or something, and its still pending. 2) Even after integration, its hard to pull the volume from the main exchange. Case in point, bittrex lists monero, and a new one ( https://tuxexchange.com/) even had a free monero giveaway to attract users. So after all the effort of integration, there's no guarantee that your exchange will reap the same rewards as Poloniex. So I think it does have to be a much larger market cap, perhaps. Sure but i guess the only reason why Polo has such a massive % is that it allows the margin trading... and margin trading many coins, thats why you see the big volumes there... but there are also fiat exchanges that atleast offer margin for BTC... so maybe those could want a piece of the cake in the future

Why trying to revive a dead coin? What did the coin bring to the people to be survived... there are so many alts... just let alts that did not change a thing to btc or bring a new idea die... " just for the profits" is the wrong attitude

For all those intimidated by Monero's uniqueness;
Serious question. What is unique about Monero? So many things... I just suggest to read the OP of this thread and follow the links. https://getmonero.org/home is a great place to start... I have followed Monero from a distance since its beginning several years ago. I have bought and sold XMR many times. I just wasn't aware that it was particularly unique compared to other cryptonote coins. But I'm sure I could have easily missed something. Is it the code that is particularly unique compared to other cryptonote coins , now, or the infrastructure around it? Also the infrastructure, or name any other cryptonote coin with a Research Lab... cryptonote.org or whatever the CNcoins site is only got the whitepaper afaik

Monero volume has dropped quite a bit. Interesting reality... Less interest in it? Calm before storm? What kind of storm?
IMO itīs been the same for days just without the market dumper dumping today.

The all time Monero chart has ZERO support zones. It will slowly decline back to 1-1.50 USD over the next months. What's worse is now in order to create a double top on the long term it has to hit its ATH which we all know was a pump and dump dark net scam. Monero market is game over because slow and steady is only way to make sustainable price. First off... how dare you even talk... you could have made lots of money with one of your 0-Day vulnerabilities if you shorted at the top, you still did not proof that so gtfo liar. Secondly there is no slow and steady in anything that has a market made of 90% speculators, not ONE SINGLE Cryptocurrency.

Trolls like this are usually the ones with the least skin in the game.
We've seen this happen many times before with people displaying the same kind of psychology as N-rg... defined by having a lot of free-time on their hands to post, and a desperate need to move the markets in accordance with their trades. It usually transpires that the free-time is due to unemployment and the desperation is due to poverty.
I'd be very surprised if this guy even had 25 BTC let alone 250 BTC.
the likes of primer- and mrkavasaki? ^^

I've been monitoring 10 different searches on AB since the launch 7/10 have seen an increase. 4/10 categories have roughly doubled the offerings since launch.
so who would we rather trust someone being here since 2013 or someone being here since 10. september 2016... your call n-rg

Making videos is just one part of the job, pitching them through Facebook/Reddit/Blogs/Ads is another, otherwise nobody will see them. Does Monero have a some kind of Facebook site? It is very easy to post a video there and pay some bucks for showing the videos to a special public. Facebook Ads are cheap and enable one to target very specific people interested in Crypto/Bitcoin/Investments. Videos or Infographics are very good suited for Facebook. Content needs to be made in such a way that the specific targeted public is adressed. This can be funded too. There is no XMR adress where we can send the XMR to support the video producers. Because it is in the idea section at the moment, people need to show that they would support such a thing. When it is open for funding i guess debruyne or myself may shot a link

I donīt even think there is a big issue at all, fundamentals like acceptance, fiat exchanges will come over the coming months and spread further... this will bring marketing without the need of a marketing executive like Dash. Also in hindsight now ( im not experienced in trading ) price has to go up and come down, difference in the coins is just the timescale and eventīs or non-events. If Zcash does not take all of the sun ( i doubt it will besides some early hype at the launch ) we will likely rise soon again... maybe beyond ATH when the GUI is stable and shiny, RingCT hit maybe even Multi-Sig works... There is so much to come for XMR : Trezor, Jaxx, paybee out of beta some day all we need to do is be patient

How high do you guys think the price will go when the GUI is out? Sure bugs there are but I am sure they will be fixed as well when discovered. The best way to simply use and give feedback so that the bugs can be fixed IMO.
I mean, when the GUI is out, it is ready for non-ponies and non-fairies (read: normal people) unlike we are apparently. The potential markets are huge and the price potential is even higher because the wealthy bagholders will not bother to sell too cheap if ever.
With all the moaning about GUI we have seen in the last months price should easily sky-rocket beyond ATH... but i 100% doubt that this will happen... as the GUI is not that big of an issue "shorters" like to make it.

Pretty sure he is a DNM vendor and more than likely an admin. Much easier to post something like that/take screenshot/delete than to waste time photoshopping. There is plenty of evidence that DNMs have participated in the pump/dump (not meant to be malignant of XMR in itself), see that reddit thread as an example.
NOT sure if it aminorex although I wouldn't be surprised. What the DNM vendors did in the last month, he has been doing for 2+ years. Funniest posts are when people thank him for posting smooth talking dirtbaggery without realizing that he has been one of the smoothest manipulating c*nts any coin can have.
DUDE he just got called out on being a photoshop retard with no credibility..... stop giving him even a little bit of it... he wasnt even here before...

A few days back Adolf was filling his pants before, during and after each trade: now he's giving trading advice!!
Is there a name for an adult internet pseudonym?
Does a 'Sockpuppet' grow to become a 'Sock-marrionette'? or 'Pantaloons-cipher'? Leggings-mechanical?
Maybe he used the wrong sockpuppet :p

AlphaBay is now behind DreamMarket. And DM will not implement XMR they stated. In their Forum also no one asks for that. I did some research and AB once claimed they did it cause their customers demand it. I looked through the whole board but I couldn't find any demand for that. Somehow I think the group who said AB just used this opportunity to pump and dump is probably right. First the reddit said it is not planned... this doesnt mean it will never happen. Second the report where you got this nice little picture from also has this in it Another report by the Department of War Studies at Kings College London earlier this year concluded that Bitcoin is still the most popular cryptocurrency on the dark web. Interestingly, the current case study notes that other cryptocurrencies are gaining more users in dark markets, such as Monero.

Do you think Bytecoin could come back and overtake Monero? What would cause that to happen?
I could say that theres a possibility but as we all see and witness the price of xmr now is quite high compared to the price when it was newly launched and been adopted mostly in darknet because of its anonymous features surpasses bitcoin but last week xmr do have a problem why its price dipped again. Monero does not have problems... traders have problems... the tech is solid as ever
