summary of the missive? I don't want to listen to some people drone on and on unprofessionally about some mundane esoteric mess

I need a succinct outline. don't like surprises.

can everyone with buy orders in the .0010 range move your bid orders up a bit higher, I'm trying to form a syndicate bid with a bigger buy wall closer to the International Best Bid Best Offer


I can take out the order at .0017 if someone else fills the order at .00161 , judging conviction before I start filling heavily. I can take out the higher ask because this is still below my cost basis.

I updated my previous post, but to now reply to what you just said here, why not a 1/4th emission cut be important, or a 1/5th? there is nothing unique about 1/2

but these are not events, miners get to price this in along the way every block


if the antiquated bitcoin-core code didn't have this in it, nobody here would be talking about halvings. This is much more advanced cryptonote protocol and there are no halvings. If this was debuted first, nobody would be talking about halvings

we really never need to make references to bitcoin protocol specific quirks, this doesn't make cryptonote features more relatable. The dev team is holding off on a basic gui until a fully featured point of sale system is created for merchants, this isn't going to be advertised like "like bitcoin but" it is going to just be the Monero network.

30x you say? WELL THEN I'M BUYING, I would like to thank whoever put up that 37 BTC sell wall, I'm eating it up

Monero doesn't "halve", every single block has less monero than the previous block.

but really, why? why is this the official announcement? why can't you guys fill 5 btc of asks on Poloniex?

rptelia's 100k is nice, but I am still forming a syndicate bid, PM me if interested

hahaha that's awesome, this has been a huge deterrent for me using bitcoin, the linkability

I think I have a few thousand xmr on my monero



thanks for the PMs about the syndicating bid, anybody have any media contacts?

Coming from someone that has way more Monero than the 20 btc necessary to drop the order book 50% and keep it there, you guys have no idea what you are talking about.

You guys collectively barely have enough bitcoin to buy Monero at firesale prices if I chose to do that, the auto dumping miners would simply hop in front of the remaining parts of my gigantic sell order at .0005btc and keep this downtrend going, while somebody makes an off hand comment about emission schedule

And lets not forget about the upside, anybody want to form a syndicate and get the price back up with a stabilizing bid? PM me

How about a software upgrade where the software client replaces any user generated transaction's mixin parameter with 3, if the user does not enter a mixin or if mixin is less than 3

This will not require a hard fork.


I was looking at simplewallet.cpp but I'm not sure exactly where the code change would be https://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero/blob/master/src/simplewallet/simplewallet.cpp

Okay real mature guys

How about all cryptonote devs and backers not act like pre-teens. Our technology is better than any bitcoin fork. There aren't that many cryptonote forks (yet) and we can work together. There really isn't a point in competing as we are already in the lion's den with people wanting an anonymous cryptocurrency but want it to be bitcoin, even though it isn't and can never be.

I will coordinate Monero advertisement if we can crowdfund some PR


I would like to do this after the database merge hits production and after there is a mixin hardfork that rejects mixins under 3

I do. I've only recently started visiting this thread again more because they don't consistently post missives outside of here on time, I mean, reddit is an afterthought and the title of the IRC channel is as well, they don't consistently talk about the latest database binaries anywhere but here, you wouldn't even have known that there was a consortium of monero research lab people if you didn't come here and follow a clusterfuck bitcointalk thread

Metadata like OP_RETURN in bitcoin, where assets ownership changes can be associated with a transaction

much like colored coins or counterparty protocols, except on an opaque blockchain

remittances in the physical world, things that add liquidity to the order books

metadata in transactions to add to the utility of Monero itself

what would take a "day", would take only a few hours, with documentation

I am very interested in building out the infrastructure of Monero

documentation is key and cryptonote lacks it

I see, that's way too low, all that to maybe get ~100 Monero a month?
