I disagree with the self moderated thread. Several other coins are specifically NOT open to negative discussions and become a blind group circlejerk.
While I have no fear of that happening to XMR (at least to the extent I've seen in other places) I feel leaving the main chat thread unmoderated speaks volumes about it's legitimacy.

but the risk is much greater than what most people are giving it credit for.
Nice FUD..at least on topic for the thread for once! the silver lining on this cloud is that as far as I'm concerned any PoW coin worth anything has to eventually go thru bcx. He will only likely do this once with any credibility. and the coin will be stronger on the other side. i like the 72 hour deadline for something to happen more than the vague "I could kill it but have no interest in it" - at least there is some resolve and deadlines associated with this threat. |

Great, I just hope you dont buy back at loss.
I likely will. but the risk is much greater than what most people are giving it credit for. at least right now |

7 - Blockchain bloat Nobody cares except the trolls. I care. And I have money in it. I love the way shills just sluff concerns off as "only things the trolls care about". Let me explain why I care. If a bitcoin codebase - say dark comes along and impliments ring signatures. Then the cost per transaction is much less as the cost for storage is much less. As the cost to store all of the transactions are less. Simply no. If another blockchain implements ring signatures it will then have a bigger blockchain and the same cost per transaction. I'm going to come back to this thread when I have time because I think it is quality and I also like the aminorex's idea of a supporter writing a FUD list. For now just that above correction. Awesome - I'll modify the OP. I admit I don't have a full understanding. I will buy back in after BCX's deadline. Until then ... I'm solo mining. |

OMG !!! some random guy on the internet said to sell cheap Monero  haha yup. pretty much the extent of the proof. I'm saving that gif... |

I'm not going to post this as a main thread. But I was just sent a message with a pastebin link. Possibly after somebody read this. http://pastebin.com/prBGYR37I have NO IDEA if this is legit or not. It's just ... what it is (created today, from a new account, etc) |

I wish i would make $200 a day.
Do you have a pool? I'd be interested in the expenses ... I would imagine for the top ones it's at least half of the daily intake. |

In light of BCX's 72 hour ultimatum and this thread - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=791366.0 for whatever it's worth. I'm exiting XMR for the next few days. I don't think he found some secret exploit. I think he's just flexing his muscles and petting his ego. (I know no one here cares what I think. But if pool owners are making $200 a day for 25% of the Monero hashrate. Simple economics make this a horrible bet if BCX is properly motivated.) |
|
|
|
edit: do we know who owns the top 3 pools? buying a pool might be cheaper than hashrate if the owner is willing to be bought off ...
Was this ever answered? |

Do the math, dude. yeah - i did. On darkcoin, litecoin, bitshares, peercoin, dogecoin, nxt ... I did the math. You are the one that has a problem with it apparently. |

Wow - old devs coming out of the woodwork to tell people BCX is real.
This is soooo dejavu. Still betting on Monero but prices need to be half of what they are now ...
|

Why don't we have a proper forum on our own yet? Devs could you please open one asap?
It really shouldn't be that half of all threads in the section are about Monero, I believe this is causing great damage to the overall users' perception of the coin.
The number of threads is far less than a fair share based on market cap. There is no grounds for this complaint. It is a complaint which originated with trolls who proceeded to create many vapid threads with XMR or Monero in the title. *Looks at litecoin market cap* Whatever dude - what you're smoking must be good. |

Im LOL at all you soon to be bagholders.. Dont you get it? The coin code is flawed. No fighting facts here. If I were you guys I'd be selling all my xmr and hopping into safe bets like btc and stealthcoin.
Its, as simple as that.
Ok. Thank you for your warning. Come back in three days and say "I told you so"  |
|
|

don't take my word. look at bcx post history. to me it says he is not going to hit xmr. if otherwise i would like evidence.
What makes you think the Polo trollbox thing was fake. Man, I was there. Seemed legit. I copy/pasted the end of the conversation on page 5 of this thread. Edit: this is also reposted in post 192 on the page right before this if you want to find it. What I don't get is why he deleted his identity confirmation on BCT |

Why do you care? Is this the XC forum? XC lol. They have to get so depressed. No miners dumping, releasing all of the tech - they've emptied their guns on features, spent their money on press releases. And the price just slowly falls  |
|
|
|
So whats the deal? My tech adviser tells me monero is now a dead coin. Slowly dying while all you guys go down with the ship...
Is it true?
you'll know in a few days ... |
|
|
|
|
how can i look at what the hashrate is? I'm curious as to what kind of resources bcx will need to get some significant hash....
|

i hope BCX is aware that he has just announced intent to commit a u.s. felony. it would behoove him to avoid u.s. customs henceforth, in particular, if there is an xmr attack over the next week or two.
BCX: please confirm this with your legal counsel.
not to be ... uh. how will they know it's him? do we want to trust a coin that relies on people "not committing crimes" for security? |
|
|
|
Well, I may just fire up some XMR miners this weekend.
Just to make it cost BCX a bit more to try this.
So long as he doesn't go off early, this can make it more expensive.
He's not the only one that can light up a datacenter.
No he most certainly isn't. Careful you don't force his hand and eliminate our 72 hour window to fix this. +1 |
