What if I am not afraid. Will that just make it worse?
Oh yeah. That would scare the shit out of me. Well maybe you can be scared for both of us then... I think that should cover it. That was my attempt at a joke. I would have inserted a tongue-smiley emoji but my browser doesn't allow images. I read it as a joke. My retort was in kind. Just an attempt to soothe my burnt nerves. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Question now is, when is a good time to buy back into XMR? Is is going to drop more? Who here thinks BTC will fall below $10,000?
As far as I'm concerned, it has to. What else is going to drag XMR down to $230 where it needs to be? why does it need to be at 230 ? So the fear can set in, the trolls can come out, and the cycle can repeat. I wonder if we will get new trolls or if some of the old ones will come back. MrKavasaki? Both of those scroodge ducks.... Wank something? I don't remember all the names. What if I am not afraid. Will that just make it worse?

Only a handful of alts are weathering the storm as well as Bitcoin. There's a lesson in there somewhere.
You know the whole "This is like the dot com bubble, but a few great companies rose from the ashes of that" idea we keep hearing? This might be a clue... ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fimghst.co%2F97%2FnI6DzxEWSP.png&t=663&c=DwuoN8CtwzfYew)

I personally will sell every XMR I have (which I dont ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) ) Allow me to tremble at the thought! (but I won't ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) ) And by the way... If Monero were worth $8000 per coin it would still not be valued as highly by market cap as ETH. So it can rise a lot before that is even a remote possibility. How do people here compare XMR to ETH (obviously they are different platforms focusing on different things)? ETH has major backing but do the highly informed here think XMR has potential to rival it? ETH is a centralized, mutable, unscalable, non-fungible corporate backed cyber-kitteh platform. It has nothing whatsoever to do with cryptocurrency, or currency at all. XMR is a grass-roots, community funded, decentralized, immutable, permissionless, fungible money. Not sure how or why one might compare them. XMR is money. ETH is an incorrect answer to a question that will never be asked. Wait... where is that like button?

Guys, use Bitstamp for smaller transactions. I funded stamp with 1 btc and have sent numerous transactions (avg size is about 50 usd) with no fee at all. They batch their transactions so its free for you and almost free for them aswell, win - win.
Basically a proto lightning network.

Out..out...OUT...with the lot of you!
Have you no shame? Sacrilege in the Temple. Do not profane this place with such talk of scamcoins.
The master never comes here anymore... so I am not so worried. I am a bitcoin maximalist myself except I think Monero is actually a better coin. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Localbitcoin users are getting nailed for not having proper licensing and getting massive fines. AFA Decentralized exchanges, openledger does not look safe IMO and I'm not aware of others that are. I just did a search of a few but I don't like any of the platforms I've seen like waves is a total scam and I refuse to use Eth for anything (and now you can't anyway). I'm guessing once the multisig is rolled out our options will increase. Until then It's still centralized or bust I guess.
Checking out paxful right now
I have done no trades on https://bisq.network/ but from a glance it looks stronk.

Kodak, wow just wow, 400% in two days - not bad for a company that destroyed itself by ignoring digital photos.
Here's a script for any ailing company: 1. Start pushing an internal cryptocoin or blockchain integration agenda 2. Quietly buy up company stock shares for 6 months 3. Publically announce said crypto agenda, even it is complete vaporware 4. Watch shares of stock get pumped jump 400-500% overnight 5. Profit ! Holy insider trading, I nailed it! https://www.marketwatch.com/story/kodak-stock-pulls-back-directors-disclose-acquisitions-prior-to-blockchain-rally-2018-01-11"On Jan. 8, the day before Kodak’s crypto announcement, no fewer than seven directors acquired derivative securities convertible to common stock, according to Form 4 filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The securities are restricted stock units, or RSUs, which were granted under Kodak’s “2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan” (OIP) and vest on Jan. 8, 2019, except as otherwise provided in the award notice, and subject to continuous service as a member of the board of directors, according to the filings. Even with the timely acquisition, there’s no guarantee the RSU’s will be profitable when they are vested.
Some board members also sold derivative securities, convertible to common shares, on Jan. 9, the day the “blockchain” news was reported.
Kodak said the timing of the insider activity was a “coincidence.”
Jail time for Bonzo? "Coincidence." ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I dunno... The first four letters of that word ARE C O I N!

It just means that we're not out of the woods yet... duh...
I mean, we just had a large correction from 850 billion market cap down to 650 in a day. Bitcoin dropped from almost 18k to 13k at one point.
To think that small bounce back to 14k bitcoin is "safe" is not correct.
It's good that he isn't recommending a short, but right now we are still more bear than bull. We had a bounce, and now we are waiting for the retaliation, which will drive BTC prices down even more.
So just wait and see...
Exactly. We are more likely to go down than up. BTC as it is is almost unusable due to network congestion and high fees. I would love to see it go up but I doubt it will happen before these pressing issues are fixed. The problem is that LN is not a short term solution and there is no way of forcing big exchanges to use it in any case. Hell, many of them aren't even using segwit or batching (Coinbase etc.). I've started to seriously think about trading my bitcoins to ethereum or even bcash (even though I think that Roger Ver is a scam artist) to not to lose my assets. Do NOT reward the scammers. If you are going to move to an alt. Move to a real one. You said Etherium, but I would prefer Monero or maybe Litecoin. These are projects which set out to compliment BTC not subvert it. And they have excellent dev teams, use cases, real world use, and positive communities. Or... just stick with the one true coin.

Why is the price going down? Doesn't the entire world want BTC, the money of the future? Money that you cannot spend, or transfer to a friend, or experiment with, or really do anything with except HODL and make memes about future lambos. Lightning Network is coming any day now and then fees will be low and merchant adoption will sky rocket! Except that LN doesn't even work in theory and even ignoring that it would still takes years to bootstrap an entirely new network because that's what LN is -- an independent network to bitcoin.Your passive aggressive sarcastic tone is very endearing. I just bought some BCASH because of it. Hey look. I can do it too... fun.

How was it with a paper wallet? If I have 10 Bitcoins on a paper wallet, I have to sent them all at once to the exchange? Otherwise the rest will get lost?
No you can send whatever you want... but that paper wallet is may no longer be "cold" storage. By the way.. this is an example of why layer 2 is so important... Takes a few hops of logic to see it though.
