With all the bear talk in here... i wonder why there is basically nothing up for sale to the .0023 -.0024 level? One decent buy clears the June 8th high, shorts closing not even considerd.
Don't get burned.
Four childish pictures. You win. I don't even know how to respond to that. I should ask my 12 year old nephew. Looks like he is getting ready to re-enter. |

My current XMR speculation thoughts... I think the current action shows the effects of a segregated coin. By that I mean: Monero is supported by an interestingly qualified group of investors, mostly old BTC hands and is... - based on a non BTC base
- missing a mainstream GUI
- trade-able at a limited number of exchanges
- tightly held by core investors/believers
- unknown in China
This combination, I believe in part leads to it NOT participating in the current rally, and we find it's moves sometimes disconnected from the market in general. Both alts and BTC. - hard for exchanges to add
- hard for the masses to use/understand
- not as easily trade-able as other more "mainstream" alts
- investors/bagholders are dug in and saturated
- the system is not gaining any foothold, and has no benefit from China
However, if we look at privacy centric alts we see a similar sort of flatness.. what could this mean? Are we in a general lull around the perceived need for these tools? Is faith in the future privacy of BTC and LTC rising due to recent events? Finally, I find it notable that in spite of the continued high inflation and certain bot mining there is enough buying interest to keep the price generally afloat in the trading range it is comfortable in. I hope we will see more widespread understanding of the platform and the need for something as simple and pure as this tool, and better exposure in general as well as specifically with Asian markets would also help adoption and eventual spread. |

Why are permabulls (like me) silent when the price is on the floor?  I'll echo the two other comments and simply add that I am not interested in getting bloodied in short term trades of such a thinly traded and highly speculative asset. "He who chews, speaks not" Ancient Greek saying.  That's good. |

All the - Master Of Trading-, - The Big Guy-, - The Strong Hand-, - Iīm Moby-Dick- of this thread, they are becoming XMR in: - Monero: The coin of Pump and Dump -.... NO thanks!!!
XMR outside Polotrap, now!!!
+Eddu bla, bla, bla...
+Instamine, bla, bla, bla...
WTF??
Monero!!!
( Sorry for my bad english, again.)
I may have read you wrong. But I have no problem telling my opinion, obviously. I don't know if you are calling me the Strong hand, big guy etc. But you may have misunderstood me as well. I am a small(ish) stake holder, and trade a very small amount as a way to hopefully increase my stake. Doesn't always work. But I am definitely not a "big guy". There are others here who may be. Your trading ranges may be very good and well executed, and for that congrats. I am very interested in the relationship between fundamental news (for example bitcoin sidechain and blocksize moves in relation to Monero's possible future), and I think speculation is as much about that as trading ranges, and to some extent maybe even more in thinly traded commodities like XMR. But I apologize for being rude. |

better than losing money. Seriously, vgo isn't even saying anything negative about monero. What's wrong with you people?
Most of his interaction in this thread has been trollish imo... And I am not one to be overly quick to call someone a troll (and I am not calling him one) nor do I think speaking negatively about monero is trolling, but for some weeks most of his posts have seemed to be meant to taunt. |

I donīt trade XMR since 05/31, zero drama.   Now waiting for 0.0017... again ( or some instamine coin with no fake walls  ). I'm pretty sure you should be able to supersize your drink at Burger Barrel now. Nice trade! |

Just more of the same it seems. Crypto moves so slow, then so fast.
Very mysterious. |

Bitcoin has to survive the block size schism way before it can consider adding ring signatures or stealth addresses. I say "LOL' basically. It IS possible. It is less probable. |

don't say i haven't you warned yet  Don't worry. No one will ever say that. |

Interesting. Bytecoin, Boolberry and Monero all saw a little flurry of buying at around the same time today... Any other cryptonotes see action?

Hmm, I suggest we leave out US patriotic mentality and words like "founding fathers" and "constitution". Crypto and P2P are about anarchism, questioning every kind of authority, so I'd leave out every reference to nation states.
You may not want him to print his ideals on crypto. I understand that. But in honesty I don't want your ideals to be the point either. And it is not because I do not share some of them. Cryptocurrencies will benefit crypto-anarchists, yes. This is by definition. And there is no doubt they have the potential to interrupt the power of states. But I have a more inclusive view of the power and use of cryptocurrencies. And this movement is no the isolated playground of left-libertarians. Also, to say they are about "questioning every kind of authority" is very short sighted. The will form new authority structures themselves. In fact this is the turn this conversation has just taken with the idea posed in the post we are talking about (the scheduled fork-dates). My 2XRMR... |

I dont know what is about Monero holders, they alll seem to exhibit this strange sense of fanatical, zealous self-assuredness of it's undeniable superiority which just comes across a little to jehovas' witnessy to me. It's like watching a late night infomercial or reading one of these ebook self-improvement pitches..in this thread it's always laughing at the fools who dump.. (haha, nervous laughter) personally I dumped and brought back lower successfully many more times than I've been burned trying it so don't personally feel too much like a fool. Also everything is apparently an orchestrated attack against monero to keep it down.. THEY are trying and hold back this torrential waterfall that will be the monero success story.. The powers that be and the haters are pulling out every stop to contain this raging monero beast.. Yawn  there is this unrelenting undercurrent being broadcast here that yes, buying and hodling a pithy amount of this bytecoin fork will allow you to buy a private island in Belize in 2-5 years. If you buy you will become soon the new wealthy elite, gentlement.. And yes you may not be able to find a single solitary purpose to holding this "currency" aside from buying a fleet of gulfstreams and a lifetime ski resort pass as there is not yet a single scrap of merchant adoption despite a year since inception and almost half fully mined.. but don't let that stop those like americanpegasus and rpietila who have nest-eggs overflowing with monero into encouraging you to gorge yourself on as much "cheap" xmr as possible. how many times we heard that before? with anonymity this currencies chief tenet (at this time quite a weak attraction as pretty much the only place to trade it- poloniex spectacularly un-anonymous, it's current sky-high inflation and many large holders concentrating wealth it doesn't seem anywhere near as groundbreaking as it's chief proponents try and insinuate. I'm also sick of seeing this monero thread bumped to the front page of the altcoin discussion page by the same few posters. At last it's slightly more bearable than the 15 different monero threads but still almost every other altcoin sticks to the less trafficed altcoin announcement page WRONG! I don't ski. |

It was interesting to me how the volume and volatility just evaporated during the BCT "social engineering attack". Whatever the *%*& that was.

You have to be careful about drive feezing, because if you go too cold, or run the drive for too long at cold then the spindle bearings will be destroyed. The bearings may damage the platter surfaces if they emit any particles or gelled lubricant while running cold, which would dramatically decrease the chances of data recovery by any paid service.
His failed drive is an SSD. Yeah... you should microwave those for a little while to fix them.  |

geeez! Backup folks. His most +EV play here is simple. Do not do ANYTHING to the drive.1. Buy ~$200+ in XMR (this step is optional). 2. Put drive on shelf. If XMR goes to the MOON then he can easily afford to recover the other drive, and he will not have done any extra damage by spinning up a damaged drive. If XMR fails then he's out what? A couple hundred bucks? All the while you get to enjoy being part of the speculative family again. |
