Everything I wanted bitcoin to be when I first discovered it. 


Funny that everyone lands on Monero when they know what to look for Smiley

Bitcoin takes another beathing thus monero goes down with it ... it still hurts to see this. hopefully some of u guys are right about
reaching 777 usd in Q1 2018 Smiley. i suppose hardware wallet should do this?



Monero is at risk of being partially replaced for quite a few privacy coins out there. The development needs to be fast, even if today it seems healthy.

Unless they can show you the code, it's vaporware and hype. This has been going on for as long as noobs haven't bothered to check to see if claims are valid--which has gone on since onecoin, maybe even before.

I worry in this facebook and meme world, we live in, whether anyone sees any deeper these days.

They will all be filing in line to hand over their cash. Sad

Already seen a mention from a serious city banker type to which I replied bad bad bad of course.



When cash is made illegal only outlaws will own cash.


And every billionaire and corporation who doesn't want their funds tied up by some rouge judge who decided that all their funds should be locked up just in case a 1 trillion dollar suit is succesful.

628  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Privacy getting important: Verge or Spectrecoin or DeepOnion?? on: December 29, 2017, 11:21:23 AM
Verge, even Monero accepted on twitter:



You are aware that that's a bot and Monero is FOSS--not sure who runs that bot, but it probably aggregates news from twitter or reddit--so calling it an endorsement by Monero is pretty lame (not sure if you are ignorant of how news bots work or are being disingenuous).

Verge is just another shitcoin in parade of shitcoins that treat privacy as a feature and care more about claims than honest evaluation. The pattern is to claim some magical privacy upgrade, pump the price based on that upgrade and not deliver when it is supposed to be delivered.  What's great is they never explain how the upgrade works in a whitepaper and usually keep it closed source so no one knowledgeable can examine the code. The pattern is used so much that I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't the same devs doing it over and over again. In verge's case, they didn't hide the code, but merely tried to fool everyone into believing that TOR integration was the holygrail of privacy and that TOR integration is all you need to stay private. The reality is that IP data is not TX data, so unless you live in a country that has banned using cryptocurrencies, you do not gain anything by having TOR bolted on--people in these countries already can use most any coin over TOR or I2p, so even then, you are just skipping an easy step. The actual hard part is onchain anonymity (hiding the TX data).

its annoying to see something like ZCL rocket up so that they can be airdropped BTCP. Anyone have thoughts on how this might affect Monero?

What is a ZCL, and how could it possibly affect Monero?  

Zcash, but classic  Roll Eyes


Coins should start assembling a team as soon as they release a coin, wait a couple months and change the least popular things and release a classic version. I'm not saying that getting rid of the dev tax isn't a positive change, but kind of stupid to recreate the trusted setup--though the one thing that keeps me away is the unauditable supply (that's an inflation tool the fed would be jealous of).

What do you think? For me IOTA is the new bitcoin.

This, with this shit you have almost talked without having to write those 2000 lines that you wrote in here.

IOTA the new bitcoin? you really made me laugh, do you really think that an altcoin that has been released this year is going to be much more bigger than the one who has been listed for more than 8 years?

And the only thing that the team of IOTA is doing is just LIE.

Nothing more.


Way to fud. Do you want to add some specifics to your detractions? Or are we supposed to take you at your word--and if that's the case, who are you?

IOT is estimated between 10-35 Trillion by conservative analysts, so IOTA only reaching Bitcoin's current marketcap means it's failed as a project.
631  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: IOTA is the next big thing on: December 29, 2017, 06:10:00 AM
iota is good, but what about EOS.  It seams like iota has stalled out recently because of raiblocks.   EOS is supposed to have fast transactions as well.

There is no cause and effect here--xrb (P2P) and iota (M2M) are after two different markets. Iota will probably rise when there is another big announcement--i'm surprised it didn't retrace back to the $2-3 range.
632  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Best privacy coin? on: December 29, 2017, 05:13:04 AM
For me there is only one winner here and that is Monero, then I will pick Zcash but it seems the team is struggling with the development,Dash also is doing well. Others are following these three coin IMO

I agree with you, now the most popular coin among anonymous coins is Monero. I think that it will eclipse such projects. I already bought this coin for the future
I do not know the kind of conviction that you have, although I also believe that Monero has good prospects. But I would like to be really confident about the prospects for the future, And I doubt it. How can you confirm your guesswork?

Look at DM adoption, everything else is smoke and mirrors.

IOTA made a huge reach already from .33 Cents all the way up to $5 at the end of 2017 but with cryptocurrency anything is freaking possible. But you have to understand, IOTA's wallet is pretty shetty and the developers hardly ever try to resolve issues. My own experience it has been a shet show literally with support almost none existence and leaked info turned out to be false which drove the price upwards to $5. Correct me if I am wrong, the coin circulation is around 2 billion with a market cap of 10 billion that is insanely high. Hypothetically, if IOTA fixes their wallet issue, have decent customer support that actually assist people ($10 billion you would assume) and if they manage to have actual partners in the real future like Amazon, yahoo, Google or even Ibm then 10x-20x can easily be achieved.

They have partners in Fujitsu and Bosch--go look up their development sector and marketcap.

P2P is not their focus (the "shetty" wallet that they offloaded onto a third party to develop), M2M is, so not sure why you would focus on that. Anyway, M2M is 10-35 Trillion, not the overcrowded P2P market with over a 1000 competitors, so glad they figured out where the money and need is--even if their detractors can't.

Very good looking now. In uptrend I would say. However it is not definitely x100 coin

Ya, dismal 40x this year, and  only 30ish last year. (if you are bad at math, that's about 1200x in 2 years) So it is obviously all over now, despite 'looking good'.

Add:
Now that I consider it, XMR is the only coin that I feel quite certain has a sustainable 100x in it.  

That's crazy talk--do you really think the technically proficient and the uber rich will demand best-in-class privacy and an auditable supply? Pfft, please! And don't you know that small caps have more room to grow and promise (insert vaporware here) and Bitcoin is censorship resistant (except when exchanges decide to censor you)? Monero can't compete with microcaps and one-coin-to-rulz-dem-all Roll Eyes

XMR is commonly used in the community it is the dominant anonymity coin,but a new coin will rise its name is XSPEC i will watch this coin to grow more.


Until they write a paper on how they plan on making anonymous staking or make the code available on github, it's vaporware.
637  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Most anonymous coin at the moment, Deep onion or not? on: December 28, 2017, 12:40:57 PM
DASH is a good choice, and there's a new ICO project tokenpay, which is known to be very anonymous, and I feel good about it, and I'm involved in their ICO.

Dash is a horrible choice. You are forced to trust that node stakers and hosting companies are not colluding to unmask your tx. Not to mention that there are few private send tx, which means a reduced anonymity set and timing attacks are all the easier.
638  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: IOTA is the next big thing on: December 28, 2017, 11:26:49 AM
This is a very promising coin, but I afraid the fact that its developers are from China. The Chinese government can negatively affect this project if they want to.

The devs are from Europe: http://untangled.world/iota-founders/
639  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: IOTA is the next big thing on: December 28, 2017, 11:09:20 AM
IOTA is the worst coin that has ever been created, no offense, but their devs are the biggest crap that i have ever seen. This coin will die at any time, i am sure of that, they do not deserve to have that huge marketcap

It always makes me smile when critics sink to generalized hyperbole and don't realize they sound desperate. If you really think it will die, let it, or even better, short it--but please don't give the concerned citizen spiel (no one with any real skin in the game is stupid enough to believe you).
