did monero just get added to bittrex?

I bought mine from there, but I'm seeing it as "disabled" now. What's up with that?

I doubt you can attract investors if something like this is not clearly defined.

I could make exactly the opposite argument. Namely that you won't attract investors effectively if something is too inflexibly defined before the long term effects of that rigid decision are understood. Sure BTC is doing okay, but really nobody knows what the hell is going to happen when the rewards run out. In fact every somewhat credible analysis I've seen suggests it will be bad.

As an investor, I'd rather see some flexibility retained until a system that is clearly workable is invented, rigorously scrutinized, and well-tested in the real world. That hasn't happened yet.

If you really want a 100% fixed or 100% locked-in supply then this coin is not for you.

In part I agree, but on the other hand flexibility in the rules can bring corruption, no? Do you have a source for the problems you say Bitcoin will have? I would like to read more.

ANN: I have bought into MRO (yes, daring to use that acronym) and rank perhaps between 10-30 largest owners. Reason is that I see it as the #2 coin with most potential second only to Bitcoin. It is my first and only alt investment.

Here is a thread with mostly very good general discussion on altcoins.

I am very interested in getting to know the community, so feel free to PM or otherwise contact me Smiley



I totally agree with you! In my eyes Monero is only second to Bitcoin, both coins complete each other in many ways and I can see a future where both are widely used.
thanks for making your opinions public, I believe its helping to attract even more users.

This is the first altcoin I like too. Bytecoin has brought us some serious innovation. Let's hope Monero can deliver with its fair launch and everything else.

Btw, is there any info available about the developer? Does he fully understand the design and code of the project he forked?

A minimum subsidy may be implemented in the future with <1% inflation to preserve mining incentives.

I'm a little scared of this to be honest.

Can you guys make up your mind about it?

Is it going to be a % or a fixed amount of coins?

I doubt you can attract investors if something like this is not clearly defined.
