P2P transactions in Bitcoin are extremely rare.

No they are not...

now i locked half of my stash away from myself for 5 years using a nlocktime transaction. give up now bears, you can't do anything that will make me sell. yeehaa!

Very brave, you'll kick yourself if it goes to 10k a coin n then a major flaw is found and it goes to 0 without giving you a chance to sell at least some.

Exchanges show such a small part of the market. How many coins are traded back and forth on them compared to how many coins are held of exchanges. Once the price rises significantly and those coins are held by traders rather than traded all the time, liquidity dries up fast. Saying that I think we are a year or two away from another ATH.

Circle is giving $5/~0.021 BTC for new users, which is about ~11.29 XMR at current prices Cheesy

https://twitter.com/circlebits/status/604001124258037761

You have to give some basic info, verify your e-mail and phone for 2fa, takes about 5-10 minutes.

Shame I've already done it. Someone has some bots going that raped this the last time they did it.

Well that was fun. Hate to say I told you so  Grin

Sitting here grinning about the people who told me there was 500btc buy support it not going down and all the other cheerleaders has me feeling quite vindicated. In the near future the mood in here will turn extremely bearish and I'll be buying just like I was selling when everyone else was buying.

Nothing changed in XMR that's true. There's still high inflation, still super slow development and now the place it is traded on the most has been vacated. Anon coin on non anon exchange. No thanks.

The obvious cheerleaders who are sitting here defending how much money they've lost makes it all the funnier.

Eventful few days. Im very glad I had no funds on Polo as I would have been one of the people having to choose to give up my anonymity or commit fraud to withdraw a fairly sizable chunk of btc I withdrew just before going on holiday.

Im with smooth here, fuck Polo how dare you ransom funds on such short notice.

Short to mid term is still downwards for me as I've been saying for at least a month or two now. Being able to short this on margin is very very tempting.

Given current buy support there was very little benefit to buying in early. My own fault though should have anticipated it. Devs may want to consider enlisting some traders to help support the coin early on. This isn't fud, but below crowdfund on day 1 isn't good for the life of the coin as those buying at 2-5k now are going to make support levels a pain.

Oh please. Trading has been open less than 24 hrs. Stolen coins were dumped. Other exchanges not yet up.

You guys should really go back to trading pokemon cards. Less stress.

Agree.

There is right now a great opportunity to buy and hold more Virals. I don't expect to see again these prices in the near future.

If I had a Bitcoin for every time someone said "never see these prices again" I would have my own island. Just saying.
328  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero Speculation on: May 09, 2015, 11:48:24 AM


but why the use of log instead of linear?

Sorry missed your question on the previous page.

Its mainly a personal thing, log *tends* to provide a clearer picture of trends because it shows movement not based on a price basis but on a percentage basis.

Have a search around and you'll be able to find many pros and cons of linear and log. I just find log works better for big percentage changes in charts which cryptos and in particular alts have.

"Generally, the log scale (to be precise - the semi-logarithmic scale) is much more useful than the linear one, which is precisely why we use it. The logic behind that is also the root of technical analysis – emotionality. Which will cause the same emotional swing as an increase in the value of something from $1 to $1.50? Will it be an increase from $50 to $50.50, or an increase from $50 to $75? Naturally, the latter, because in both cases the move is substantial and offers a possibility of a 50% gain on invested capital."

Time is flying...

Anybody well versed with TA could give a TA opinion on current situation? Aren't we breaking a downtrend as we speak?




So according to the most basic TA it will go to zero Grin

When it then goes below zero who do I owe money/btc to Huh

I'm not even sure if you're being serious. Refer to the bolded part of binaryFate's question and don't be so asinine.

Of course I wasn't being serious.  Sorry, as you obviously are and have been consistently.  Serious without being self serving.   

It was these qualities of your posts in the btc speculation thread last year which are a large part of the reason I decided Monero was something serious.

Thank you Smiley

Apologies for the quip then, a rather heavy night last night meant I didn't wake up in the best of moods this morning  Grin

Volume on GBTC is 2268

at the effective rate of $550/BTC!

thats more than double than the real price of btc, thats insane...  Shocked

bear should arbitrage real btc there instead of being bear all the time

You can't. You need shares to sell

just sell now and buy moar xmr cheaper  Cheesy

Of course there were those who sold at 0.0011 hoping to buy moar at 0.0008 and the market bottomed out 0.00091.

Indeed but those with half a braincell then bought back on the 'announcement'

Serious lack of volume today.

Normally happens before a big move.

The question as always.... which way ? Wink

Last night's micro-bubble was apparently pulled by Huobi or BTC-e again.  If it was Huobi, could this be the reason?

Huobi Bridges Bitcoin with China’s ‘Booming’ Shanghai Stock Exchange
http://cointelegraph.com/news/114126/huobi-bridges-bitcoin-with-chinas-booming-shanghai-stock-exchange

is launching a new trading platform named Caimao that will enable users to mortgage their bitcoin to borrow Chinese yuan, which are then used for trading shares listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but there's going to be a crowd fund for price discovery before the ico. Each one split 50-50. Whats to stop people not participating in the crowdfund so the ico price is lower and then buying up a shitload at the ico?

Fact is none of these cryptos are likely to succeed long term, hell even btc is going to struggle to make any *real* impact. I'm talking 100's of billions market cap and accepted in most places (bitpay doesn't count) not a few billion.

Not fact. Just your personal assessment.

Fact is factual, and the future (and what will happen there) is not yet factual.

Just a couple years ago people were buying 10.000 BTC pizzas. Some probably thought that market cap in the billions is most definitely an absurd notion. History proved them wrong.

The operative word in there being likely.

Perhaps you should look at Ristos statistical analysis of the likelihood of XMR being succesful and the likelihood of it failing completely.

The statement would have still stood back in the day of 10,000BTC pizza.

Back then it was a fact that the liklihood of BTC gaining billions of dollars in market cap was small.
