Congratulations to Johnny Mnemonic.

Let's hope the corresponding part of your prediction doesn't happen - the inevitable retracement.

New Paradigm.

This time, it's differentTM

This feels like $5000 BTC.  It just kind of arrived, and then, shit got serious.

I dunno.  I'm just enjoying the ride...

I also use livecoin... It's better than CMC.


I just found it.  So far so good.




add:

Well, my friends, there we have it, $425 on Poloniex.  a few days late, but hey, only a few will complain Cheesy

This is great right? As btc drops we keep value and Koreans go crazy on xmr... Or am I missing something
Not really.

#   Source   Pair   Volume (24h)   Price   Volume (%)   Updated
1   Poloniex   XMR/BTC   $72,943,300   $386.30   19.76%   Recently
2   Bitfinex   XMR/USD   $69,053,300   $384.08   18.70%   Recently
3   Bittrex   XMR/BTC   $59,619,500   $414.31   16.15%   Recently
4   HitBTC   XMR/BTC   $51,021,300   $388.58   13.82%   Recently
5   Bitfinex   XMR/BTC   $44,432,300   $387.56   12.03%   Recently

Not really great , or not really missing something :p
I highlighted it in red! The Koreans aren't really goiing crazy on xmr, many non-korean exchanges in the top 5.

If you look closer, you will find that there are no Korean exchanges listed at all  Wink

They are all running a 25% lead, with far more volume.  Bithumb hit $717.

add this to your list

#1  Bithumb   XMR/KRW   $184,280,158  $493.48   

It skews the results, somewhat  Shocked

When it looked like Bithumb was falling off it's spike, I sold off a bit of my margin long/BTC.  Now they are holding/climbing back.  So if y'all don't mind, I'd like it back  Grin

Still no news on the x2 spike?  Just more crazy Korean antics?

Oh man... This dump might have been my fault.  I bought this chocolate train tonight and I was gonna stamp CCMF into it and be all like
 Chew Chew Motherfuckers!
Unfortunately I left it inside the front door while I got the rest of the stuff out of the car and I called my daughter to help me... she didn't see the bag and stomped on the train  Cry

At first it looked like it might be okay -




 But then as I tried to extract it from the plastic...




 #REKT

 I'm going to have to eat it.




That's OK.  The next one you will be sure to have enough zeroes on it, hmm?

Off Topic, but should be of importance to everyone, really.

Anyone using proton mail?  I've left gmail as my general email provider (kitten pics, boring shit, and log ins for unimportant shit) for too long, and I'm not convinced my 'more secure (obscure?)' providers are any better.  The last straw - I just reset my passwords via webmail, and ALL of my android devices automatically updated and logged in with the new passwords.  This is beyond sketchy.  It screams GET OUT NOW, or years ago, if you have a way back machine.  I try not to use it for anything important anyway, but WTAF.  So its time to evacuate and consolidate.  Anything better than proton out there?  If it's not free, it has to accept crypto.  And of course, be anonymous.

Yesterday I made the same decision for different reason. I got pissed off with Gmail not playing nicely with Outlook 2016 and switched to a paid ProtonMail account. Very good - their Mac IMAP encrypt/decrypt program is excellent. I’ve been using free protonmail to send passwords and private stuff for a year or so. They’re good.

Check out zoho mail. There's a free version and a paid business version.

https://www.zoho.eu/mail/

or

https://www.zoho.com/mail/

Privacy policy doesn't stack up against proton, though usability/features looks good.  No viable payment options either.  I might try  the free one for a gmail replacement.  Can't be worse, right?

If you want privacy you could try this for free.

Alternatively you could pay bitcoin to use this. Satoshi used it, so it's got excellent privacy.

Thanks, I'll check them out.

$560 $600 on Bithumb. Doesn't make sense.

Even stranger, it seems to be standing it's ground.  Could be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5BJXwNeKsQ ?

In the equities world, the whale traders use fake news and insider trading on earnings and announcements to induce volatility and scam the weak hands out of their shares.

In the crypto world, Bitcoin has no such things as earnings or announcements per se. After all the hacks and exploits were over, it had no enemies or threats left either.

So the establishment had to create one in order to facilitate FUD and trading volatility: BCash.

Call me paranoid, but I can't help wondering if some/all of the fork BS is just to shake coins into moving, so the alphabet agencies can better map the blockchain.
1372  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: December 20, 2017, 01:28:31 AM
If anyone bother to check, they can see that BTC is transferring consistently $30 ~ 50 billion value over the internet in the past weeks.  This is more than ALL the ALT COMBINED!  So it is functioning as designed, i.e. an internet value transfer protocol with a daily $10 million+ fee market that incentivize profit seeking miners to secure it.  

Please point to where the stats are for value transfered on anonymous crypto chains.  I'd like to see for myself what  is entailed in this "ALL the ALT COMBINED" total.

Thanks


The best link is this one.  You can add your favorite crypto too as they are surprisingly some small alt that see significant transaction volume in fiat terms.  Might be due to the occasional pump-and-dump though.  Now obviously it does not work for XMR or similar ccy.

Huh.

633 717 spike, back  down a bit.  Dropped from coinmarketcap, probably for being almost 2x the other exchanges.  National epiphany?

WTF is going on?  CB releases BCH and Korea spikes XMR at the same time.   I dunno.

Speculation... 400 USD breached by end of the week. Johnny Mnemonic takes a victory lap next week or earlier, but definitely before 2018.

By the end of the week? At this rate, we could see $400 USD tonight.
$390 on Bittrex now. And more important, back up over 0.02btc again!

400 USD  Coinmarketcap average.

I am a new to Monero and running into some issues syncing the blockchain for the first time.  

I downloaded and ran monero-gui-v0.11.1.0 . The sync was taking over a day and still had a lot left so I looked for ways to speed this up. I read you can download the raw blockchain (https://www.monero.how/tutorial-how-to-speed-up-initial-blockchain-sync) imported and finished the sync. Once it finishes I save and shut down the daemon.  I launched the gui and it tries to start syncing all over again.  Am I doing something wrong? I thought the blockchain was fully synced and downloaded and I don't know if it will ever finish syncing through the Gui. Any suggestions on getting the blockchain to sync faster through the gui? Thank you for your help!

On what system?  Was it syncing the blockchain, or the wallet to the blockchain? You can connect to a remote node for use until your own copy of the blockchain is ready to go.

I find that starting the daemon, and not starting GUI until after it is up to speed works best is the only way to make it work on my old windows setup.  I put this entirely down to old hardware that was not fast even new, and of course, windows.  As has been posted before, cutting edge software works best on cutting edge hardware.

My local system has an AMD 6 core processor, 12 gb memory, SSD, and a 100 Mbit fiber connection. It is not the newest computer but I didn't think it would take this long to sync. The disk usage doesn't go over 10%, the cpu doesnt go over 38%, and network is under 3 Mbps. I don't actually know the if it is syncing the blockchain or the wallet to the blockchain.

Below is what I did:
  • Downloaded and installed Monero https://downloads.getmonero.org/win64
  • Downloaded and copied blockchain.raw to monero gui folderhttps://downloads.getmonero.org/blockchain.raw
  • Imported the blockchain monero-blockchain-import.exe --verify 0 --input-file ./blockchain.raw
  • Ran the daemon until it was fully synced monerod.exe
  • Saved with save
  • Opened Monero Gui with monero-wallet-gui.exe
  • Entered password and the status at the bottom left said it was Synchronizing
The synchronizing that seems to take forever is the one at the bottom left within the wallet. To troubleshoot I also rebooted, deleted the monero programs folder, redownloaded monero,  deleted c:\programdata\bitmonero, deleted C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\bitmonero,  deleted the registry location Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\monero-project and started over. Also at one point started over and used the monero-wallet-cli.exe after the blockchain synced with monerod.exe but I didn't know how to open an existing wallet, so I deleted it all and started over with the gui instead of cli at that step. Thanks for your help as I learn more about this.

Below is a screenshot of the synching window I am referencing.




Sounds like you deleted the blockchain in your troubleshooting.
  Your system seems sufficient that if you just let it run, it would be done or nearly so the next morning.
  You did not mention what OS.  Not that I have a clue, but by now I at least know the basic info the guru's will want in order to help you  Wink 

With your system I think I'd just start the GUI and let it do the rest. Check on it in a day or two.

Monero marketcap now worth six billion united states federal reserve notes  Grin

CMC average over C$500 now   Grin 390 USD.  Take away a handful or so for poloniex, if you're using that as your reference.

One year ago, at $8, this seemed really, really far off.

looking good, what happens next?

We take a breather.  No not like that!  S l o w l y!  Sit down!

Looks like we may hit .047, ~$893!

well, .047 might be ~900.  Or it might be ~400.  Or 2000.  Not that it matters: It is a measure of hierarchy as much as anything.  And Monero will be moving up.
