It is more like opposite. Global instability is huge threat to all stable coins. If currencies hat back stable coins devalue so will value of stable coins devalue. If that currency get worth nothing so will stable coin be worth nothing.

When was Monero 25 cents?  It was in 2015. When Bitcoin was at bottom of last cycle. Where are we right now?   If you will wait a year there will be no more 25 cent Monero and you will ask same question where I buy $60 Monero.


Uf and we got a countdown until next protocol upgrade  https://community.xmr.to/xmr-countdown/

There was, is and will always be a chance for that. But that chance is smaller every day that pass. Ten years ago was huge. Eight years ago a bit smaller. Five years ago was not that huge anymore. Tomorrow and ten years from now will be less then right now.

Does anyone know how this went?  We all know that all courts will be against any banning of any kind of cryptocurrencies.  But it will be up to governments to follow those rulings or ignore them. In countries with more autocratic governments will be more ignorance and cryptocurreinces will get banned until government will change.  I believe India is close to that. More autocratic that many others.

Stores and businesses will sell for crypto only if people will be wiling to buy with crypto. There has to be demand first. Problem is that no matter how simple is to use crypto people avoid using it.

It seems roadmap was updated: https://medium.com/origintrail/origintrail-tech-roadmap-update-8acc63065b7e

Q4 2019

Extended support for more use cases and data set types with the Data Layer v2 in Freedom release (formerly named Gemini stage). Introducing a generic JSON-LD based protocol level file format - OT-JSON.

Possibility to convert datasets between different formats. Separated architecture between converters (transpilers) and importers.

Increased capacity to process supply chain events and objects by increasing supported dataset size. The full Freedom data layer specification is available here.

Easier data integration and application development with the updated API. The new improved Freedom data layer API documentation with increased graph traversal flexibility.

Increased dataset connection integrity with decentralized identity verification.

Increased data resilience by implementing initial litigation and reputation mechanisms. Data holder job agreements will be redistributed in case of node failover

Easier node management with updated Houston. Improved settings for different data holding scenarios (data lifespan, data size).

nOS launched as a Software-as-a-Service platform. Launch of a streamlined version of nOS.

Community website section launch


2020
 
Freedom v2 stage:
Improved user experience with easier node key management.
Optimizing the node operational costs by lowering hardware requirements and blockchain usage optimization.
nOS cryptocurrency exchange integration.

Pioneer stage:
Data marketplace infrastructure implementation.
Upgraded litigation mechanism according to protocol spec.
Additional data privacy options with zero-knowledge algorithms update.

We can expect steady growth. Most of the time price will be between $10000 and $20000.  If financial crisis will hit us we will go back under $10000. If not, at end of the year we might go over $20000.

Buy what you believe will b used 10 years form now and  Bitcoin will not implement. It is simple as that. If coin will not be used will be worth less then today. If Bitcoin will have same feature then Bitcoin will prevail and your coin will have 0.00001% market share.

I guess this is then very bad news. No going nuts. Monero will just move same as all other top10 coins

She believes that when buying crypto with fiat you need KYC, so Bitcoin cant be used anonymously (unless you mined it or have old stacks) and she believes that everyone have right to privately use cash and Monero.

Scheduled protocol upgrades in Monero were to add new anon features and the rest and not to change the mining algo. Algo was changed when was a fork, just because there was a chance to do it. Without so frequent forks that would not happen even once.  The changes of algo was not so drastic to drastically increase chances of bugs.



No one claimed monero classic so its marketcap should be 10+ times smaller. But you are also saying AEON marketcap is smaller? How much?





My question to all is when we will expect first ASICs being build to mine AEON and how much after that will be for sale for everyone to buy?

LOL. Euro?  Before USD there was English pound, before English pound there were Netherland whatever they had, before Netherland whatever they had was Spanish whatever they had. Why you think this currencies were world reserve currencies? This is quite simple history question.

When USD will lose role of world reserve currency CNY will take it. When CNY lose world reserve currency status Indian whatever they have will take it.  Maybe just maybe Bitcoin will jump in not sure when.

But we are more then a half year before halving and only 5% drop put us under $8000.  I believe sub $8000 is very possible. Sub $6000 are already much closer to impossible then possible.

Found this chart on reddit that suggest that the 2015 is already past. Jolly 2016 ahead.
 

One week latter at 28 sats.  That was nice 40% growth in only a week time.  It is obvious that you cant be added to Kraken every week, but still without developers doing good job over last 3 years this would not be possible.

LOL, none. But I would ask all religious people to keep your religion as your private matter.  If I am a skateboarder, I dont go and write a grafiti on school wall skate or die. I take my skateboard and go skate.

I see there is a block chain conference in February next year.I guess best is to go there and see how they progressed. https://nkcryptocon.com/

Him calling it most important is a bit silly. I believe buying pizza or anything else with Bitcoin was way more important.  Ha, I just checked the pizza day and 10th anniversary will be right around halving.

This is super dumb statement. Since for Syrians to reach Europe they need to cross Turkey. Why would he want more refugees? There is already huge number of Syrian refuges in Turkey. Most are in Jordan.  Plan and goals are different. Refugees are just what comes with wars in 20th and 21th century.

When we talk about decentralisation in Bitcoin and other crypto currencies, there we talk about few different things:
Main what is mention is mining decentralisation. Miners secure the network. Not decentralised network could mean that someone can cheat and that would make Bitcoin insecure.  
Second part that is often mention is development decentralization. In beginning of 2009 when only Satoshi was developing, if something would happen to him, then Bitcoin would die. He was also able to make any change he liked back then. Now such things cant happen. They can is some small coins. Or tokens. For Etehreum tokens you already realised they are centralised. They are controlled by the one that made a smart contract. Tokens are much different then PoW cryptocurrencies.
Third part are exchanges/market. in 2013 and before when huge chunk of Bitcoins was exchanged on MtGox, Bitcoin market was centralised.  They were able to manipulate it easily. Today when there is more exchanges it is much harder.

If this 3 things are not decentralised, then that coin should not even be called cryptocurrency. I understand it takes time to achieve all that. But problem is that some coins dont have this even at end of the tunnel.
