I know we've had an upgrade and enforcement has been off but I have not had an MN payment since the 26th of March. Everything is green at the ninja's site. Am I alone with this....?
No you`re not, there is something not working 100% like it did in the 11.1.25 version.... Enforcement + Masternode payments are working properly. The problem the reference node takes about 4 days to get through the full list of payments and if you restart it, it won't remember where it left off. It was restarted last Wednesday, then again Saturday (when the blockchain stuck). We would be on our 2nd cycle if it wasn't for the blockchain hanging on Saturday. The next version is going to keep persistant record of who was paid, then continue on, so we won't have this problem in the future. Bump and Happy Easter to Evan ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Smooth likes to come here and post his theory that the only reason for Dash’s high market cap (given it’s “broken” tech) is that it’s a manipulated market by ‘insiders’ holding large amounts of coins. (It isn’t - the reason is that Dash has the right business model and XMR has a doomed one that was never thought through because they became too obsessed with ‘cryptography’. But thats for another post). In fact I’ve never seen any evidence of this and he has never posted any. I heard Poloniex owns hundreds of thousands of XMR because they have set up the deposits so that they can't tell who deposited what and users can't prove they made the deposit unless the user knew to send a special ID to go with the transaction. So now they have a high percentage of the XMR float that no one else can claim, and they have the monopoly on the market. There aren't many who would benefit more from the price of XMR going up than Poloniex, perhaps not even one.
You can detect the ‘footrpints’ of a pump and dump operation by doing some volume analysis on the respective big price moves. I learned this from watching paycoin for weeks - not because I was invested, just because it was quite fascinating to see it in action. In particular, the OBC (On Balance Volume) has very squarish patterns in it, while the price signal has lots of “reflections” - a big move up, a horizontal section and an equivalent move down. Here’s what’s been going on over at Poloniex lately… ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F5COlxWm.png&t=663&c=Z24-heJPUrucsg) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FUB2RXP9.png&t=663&c=pXnkJTqRStALrA) From that you can’t tell if it’s “deliberate manipulation”. You can only tell that large holders are moving the market and small ones aren’t. You can get clue to motivations, however, by measuring the cost of the pump against the revenue from the dump. In the following move (this is a longer range chart - 4 hour), the market was ‘coaxed up’ in a move that barely reflected in the volume profile. What this does however is attract large amounts of liquidity into the bid stack of the order book which doesn't manifest itself in the 'upside' volume statistics. What the pumpers then do is wait for sufficient liquidity to appear to absorb their ‘dump’ before selling into it. This then does reflect in the OBC and gives them a huge gain in BTC, even though the price signal would appear that it was a zero sum game. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FEUpYMCH.png&t=663&c=_wNybOIrfD0fCw) Another superb market analysis. Btw I just tried to update the Monero wallet to try yet again to obtain an accurate Tao ratio for update speeds and the wallet that was fully updated and synched only on friday night is now 86 days behind to catch up! At least if you flog a dead horse, it would still get there in the end bit by bit, after all it has the handy added advantage of always going forward in the time ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Happy Easter everyone, please do make sure you eat enough chocolate to get as bloated as a Monero blockchain and as full as main RAM usage ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fthetimetogoisnow.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2014%2F06%2Fargentina_bariloche_worldslargestchocolateegg.jpg&t=663&c=AMGlPgHltiZAtg) The worlds largest Easter Egg in Argentina ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

Some very good consolidation going on here, looks like we will soon be ready to move on and steady above 0.02 this time.
My crystal ball shows a dead kitty bounce (same but smaller than a dead cat bounce) Extrapolated trends suggest we're in the median area. Extending the lower underlying trendline gives 0.02 around May 26th ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Let's not. I'm sure you'll Ur joking but we are above such activity. I know some members from our forum have engaged in such behaviour and we would please ask them to stop doing so. We should have no interest in other coins receiving negative PR as it effects all of us.
I popped over the wall and had a look, but I couldn't see anything as everyone turned out to be on ignore anyway and I didn't pursue the matter ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Great to see the Tao ratio mentioned in your details, cheers for all the work you do ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) 2b6d12a..... Thanks! I will continue. Just thought, it might be considered self promotion! lol. Perhaps a small wikipedia entry somewhere to substantiate and elaborate ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

Stop cracking me up, you're doing it on purpose ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I remember reading some of bitcoinexpress's post's about the vulnerabilities of ring signatures and Monero, and as soon as he'd pointed out the weaknesses, they all called him a troll and jumped on him like a pack of hyenas. bitcoinexpress seemed like one of the few people who actually understood the coding and what was going on (I vaguely remember him pointing out something about darkcoin's security sometime way back?) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.holysmith.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2009%2F12%2Fhyenas.jpg&t=663&c=jZUDSJ8AengNYg)

Hey, thanks for my ratio! I take it with me in my bio wherever I go... <====
Not had chance to try version 0.11.2.17 yet -it looks a little faster but we shall see, but going to hold off until Evan and the Devs release a fix for current sporking for the masternode donation problem. Btw, wheres your donation address, not in your signature ? Yeah I don't post it in my sig because I am not about doing what I do for that purpose. I am not above receiving DASH love, though, my donation addy can be found in my Masternode guide: https://dashtalk.org/threads/taos-masternode-setup-guide-for-dummies.2680/Cheers! Great to see the Tao ratio mentioned in your details, cheers for all the work you do ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) 2b6d12a.....

TBH, after trying to use the highly buggy and unstable 'GUI' .net framework wallet, I am surprised its got this far and has such a large marketcap, can see it ending in a lot of shrieking and squeaking (perhaps we're getting the leading edge of whats to come back on themselves, Karma can be a bitch, or bitchez in this case) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FiLivFZs.jpg&t=663&c=zdJ3-Bp73Bjvrg) And so passes Monero, the de-anonymized scam of alts. RIP Monero. To be fair, the lead dev said it was 100% speculative alpha grade. And the other dev said it was a bit of a broken piggy bank. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2Fzf1lukb.jpg&t=663&c=l1u8Zr0N_Sd0Tg) Karma was my ex-girlfriend - and she was a real bitch. Alpha grade As my mate says when he thinks someone is taking the piss out of him, ' Are you having a laugh?'

Can anyone explain why when I closed the Monero wallet last time it as 216 days behind and when I opened it today it is 314 days behind? This is playing havoc with working out the Tao Ratio, the thing is going backwards ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) Perhaps it has some kind of fancy blockchain time travel ability that helps it avoid detection in real space, now that would be really clever ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

By the way Oaxaca.... That was super super funny... I've even shared it in our companies twitter and Facebook. Very well timed to since I just finished my Sommeliers exam in Montreal! Mr. Fortuno LuCrazy! Epic. Thanks for that
My favorite quote was: "could you spare a coin for a moral cripple?" Relevant on both fronts...here and at the winery. Lol. Awesome find and thanks for sharing that!
