I missed out by 1 game in a 14 game bet. I have hit it once and missed by 1 3 times now. Refining the approach but seems pretty good. This 2£ stake would return £180 so plenty of capacity for repeat tries and at some point scaling it up. (and of course cash out is there)  |

Mempool single thread bottleneck has little to do with number of transactions/sec, when one can put as much transactions within the block limit. Although segwit almost doubles that amount, blocks are already full, particularity in the time of spam attacks that your BCH friends impose on the blockchain. That is probably the reason this was not addressed before by core devs, and why other people detected it when they increased the block size by two orders of magnitude in their crazy experiments towards 1GB blocks, in which case it did became a bottleneck. What mempool multi-threading can help is handling spam transactions much more effectively, leaving mempool in much better state. If you understand all this (and I'm not sure you do, so you should be given the benefit of the doubt that you are simply ignorant), then your statements about core team where "nobody understands concurrency" are nothing but the FUD you spread about them in order to picture your big block developers somehow "superior". We saw their coding skills few days ago when they failed to execute a proper fork. What's funny that you said few posts above that you don't want to hurt BTC in any possible way, and few posts latter you talk this nonsense about core devs. You can't lie and at the same time cry you only want the truth, inconsistency is killing you. If you alter the system to reduce or better handle spam? then spam tends to alter to better spam the new system. In that respect it is an escalating system just like virus. The "Butterfly Labs" of car manufacturers. Place a pre-order, and God-only-knows when you will take delivery. Pray they stay in business long enough to fulfill the order. Ah, you'll eventually get it but when you do, it will be much more efficient and faster to take a rocket where you want to go. He said, we could fly around the world in about an hour, for the price of an airticket from now ! Mindbuggling. Imagine the acceleration ! You just have to get a bit further away from the earth (spinning) you don't have to overtake it. |

Really hard to tell where Monero could go price wise, but I heard today that Arab states want to hide money and if they put it into Monero (or any alt) the price would rise incredibly due to the limited supply and liquidity. I do need to get some Monero, because it's the type of thing that would happen, this is crypto after all! I can see Monero over $1000 in the next 1-2 years.
Honestly, I'm really not all that surprised to hear this; with the anonymity, privacy, and lack of reversibility it would make a very good currency for a rogue country (that or perhaps they're already using cryptocurrencies and we just don't know). Regardless, if this was the case it'd sure be good for Monero's market cap. Its a tricky one. A bit chicken and egg. They need to have confidence it will be around for the long term. It could be a cascade effect if that belief begins to be adopted. Not sure the general crypto pump and dump is really helping with this confidence level. |

In all this mania, Monero starts to look cheap again. Relatively at least. Something has to give.
But I seem to consistently overvalue privacy, compared to my peers at least. Always wonder if it is me being crazy or them.
Currently the market says it is me. I just can't help being extremely bullish on Monero, whether they are $0.50 or $150 a piece.
Why does it have to be 1 or the other? perhaps everyone is crazy.  Look at the long term monero new coin supply decay. Its a no brainer then. |

Not a cost move, back to the sideways trading, maybe? I really can't understand that a old coin would have so much quantity, a lot of "senior members" all of a sudden speaking for it, the price stays exactly the same for several days on end. Take a look at Doge (urgh) in comparison, the thing is movement, not stagnation.Keep in mind Feathercon? g
Since no one else is answering, I feel a little sorry for you. I will rise to the bait. I think you haven't been around long or you would realise some people are more interested in a long term increase in value. These people do tend to be 'senior' members, since they have learned much over time in crypto and have done well from picking coins early that have become considered the cream of crypto and made HUGE returns, such as Monero. Mentioning Doge etc. in relation to Monero is really a bit silly. I don't think you will find many people consider Doge to have been a good investment. Good luck with your strategy of trading Doge, though - maybe one day you will have made enough you will be able to afford a decent position in a better investment. Every Dodge has its day. Though we laughed at it and left it well alone there were times it went crazy and multiplied and we wondered. Still that was very much in the past and the years haven't been kind. |

What are advanteges of your coin expect security.What are other innovations?
Fundamentally different than all the hundreds of Bitcoin fork based coins. Design focus not capitalisation. Sustainable, with small tail emission for securing the blockchain. An issue BTC has yet to address. And the upcoming multi sig transactions, enabling in protocol escrow. All good stuff and much more. |

I like Monero but I always like to compare my coins to the competition, and in this case, the competition is unfortunately ahead and much more superior than Monero. Zcash, do I need to say more? Why is Zcash the most well capitalized crypto out there (focusing on private transactions?). There must be a reason for that, they simply have a better technology than Monera and this has been confirmed by so many. Monero doesn't even only have such competition, they have other competitors out of their industry (privacy sector) such as Ethereum, which will soon implement the same technology that Zcash is using. So you'll have Ethereum that can do all these crazy things (smart contacts) and do them privately, and then have Monero which can only do one thing, transact privately. Why would you choose Monero over that?
Oh thanks, care to share a bit more details of your research into each, in order that you could draw that conclusion and further be so confident of it as to come announce it here as fact? Thanks |

except it was debunk, there is no keylogger inside this keyboard... Updated, 11/7/2017, 8:40am PT: An earlier version of the article stated that the keyboard's software was sending key presses. However, in a closer look, it seems that the Cloud Driver software doesn't send the key presses to the Alibaba server but only how many times each key has been pressed. http://www.tomshardware.com/news/mantistek-gk2-collects-typed-keys,35850.htmlWell key occurrences along with if you have the timestamps of the keys pressed, depending how frequently stats get pushed home, you could make a list of probable words typed. It would seem if you only log in then largely use the mouse for browsing, they could get a pretty good anagram of your password after a few months. |

You throw numbers around like your words, badly. Where you see precision, I see contradiction. Like a near-sighted cyclops who can paint, he's a genius among his peers (and in his own eye), but a master of splat to anyone with depth perception. Speculation thread and noone does analysis. The end of crypto speculation is very near! speculation ˌspɛkjʊˈleɪʃn/Submit noun 1. the forming of a theory or conjecture without firm evidence. Nomore moroneros even define their own economy bible! Let me quote wikipedia for you total moronero. Speculation is the purchase of an asset (a commodity, goods, or real estate) with the hope that it will become more valuable at a future date. In finance, speculation is also the practice of engaging in risky financial transactions in an attempt to profit from short term fluctuations in the market value of a tradable financial instrument—rather than attempting to profit from the underlying financial attributes embodied in the instrument such as capital gains, dividends, or interest.
Many speculators pay little attention to the fundamental value of a security and instead focus purely on price movements. Speculation can in principle involve any tradable good or financial instrument. And you know what? Do not tell me that is wiki. I know you have your own holy book. Like quran or other bullshit. And like fanatics you ignore the facts. Close, I have actually learned in my life to ignore utter pricks. I make my own decisions and stand by the outcomes. What will be will be. |

That was a running triangle and this will very probably correct to 6k or less.  You havent posted anything in ages   People still read this thread?? I just want to learn stuff from as many people as possible. That seems the best way to have a well rounded view of the terrain. Your sharing of knowledge and ideas is greatly appreciated, as I have PMed in the past when idiots tried to deter your efforts. Your effort is greatly appreciated by real people. I am not the only one. |

that bear at the picnic table is having an
epic "told you so" moment......
Well, I'll try to be gracious. It's a big table. Come join me. Frankly, I still expect another dive in BCH price at some time. We're not outta the woods. If nothing else, we have the upcoming Coinbase dump on the horizon. But long term? Yeah... world-making. The One True Bitcoin.
Haha. BCH=1337.xx. In this moment, I am leet.
The only practical use of BCH, apart from trading, is buying Chinese mining equipment.
BCH is capable of every use case that Bitcoin Segwit is capable of. Plus many more. Truth be told, I'm bullish on Bitcoin Segwit too. I'm just much bullishier on Bitcoin Cash. Wait...is "bullishier" a word ? Disclaimer: I have no clue what I'm talking about No you are right. Its just - more bullish. I misread Bolshier at first, which is something different again and made me think of bolshevik blood hounds?? |

Seems like the breakout of a few days ago only agreed to be a false one and we are back to the downtrend. Large throwing also today.
I wouldn't count on it. This is not some pathetic alt with nothing but speculation and Ponzi power to drive it. This is the emerging dominant currency of the global shadow economy. Already it is manifestly taking share from all competitors. When multisig is live on mainnet, it will be signed and sealed, the currency of what may just be the only free market in the known universe, the only legitimate price discovery channel, and hence the only actual, natural, money in existence; the only non-fiat hard currency you can spend any where, on any thing, at any time. Freedom itself, made digital. Wouldn't be counting those chickens yet ~ Scaling: the biggest issue in crypto atm and XMR will not be exempt at all, not to mention the gargantuan bloat on its hand if it even has a decent percentage of the transactions that Bitcoin has. People seem to sweep these huge problems going forward under the rug and only speak of the positives, reminds me of Bitcoin and look at the shitfest that debate become and the ensuing "propositions" XMR has all of this to look forward to! If bitcoin had a solution for secure transactions they would also be much bigger. Its not a true comparison at all. |

I still feel pretty sick about Sharex exchange exit scam, lost a few BTC. Essentialy I went from 1400 to 700 half the stack. Still lets see.  I hope XMR can do well, 700 is still a nice stash. |

Wow, is mymonero not safe? How did people end up losing it?
That makes me real worried now, dang
The issue isn't with MyMonero itself. The service never sees your private key and thus can't steal your coins. The danger is if you misspell the domain you might end up on a scam site that looks like the real one, only it steals your key and empties your wallet. Also, if you log into MyMonero from a malware infected computer your private key could be logged as well. Basically, typing your private key onto an internet-connected machine will always carry risks. This and or accessing anything from a phone. You dont know what is on a phone. The first thing you click ok to can install anything. Ill also add never ever use a free wireless. Or even avoid wireless that's not secure. The thing is you never know if its the real wifi or a person with a laptop impersonating the wifi. So you join, log into banking and boom they can capture your session and carry it on when you log out. Hotels etc. its all the same the wifi name hotel guest wifi might well be just some guy snooping for suckers. |

What about Monero's integration? Are they partnering with anyone? I think that would give some trust back to the coin and people might get again more interested in investing in.
Anyone is free to use Monero. Or even develop it. They can even hard fork it, but as long as they keep the fork opensource. Electroneum might have troubles here. My opinion is that ZCash as a private company cant compete with Monero culture. It's like ZCash is to Windows, and Monero to Unix/Linux.  I always like that comparison because the people who get it, get it. There are 10 people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.  haha I can understand binary. "there are 2 people in the world" lol OK Glad to see more recovery, I am away a few days just checking in at the hotel. Dont go to 500 until I get back please.  Come on Monero! |

Quantum will kill all hash functions. the thing is we are still > 10 years from home quantum. Currently, it only works in the lab near absolute 0 edit: I a word But it doesnt have to be the new home standard to become an issue. Just 1 group of people with the intention and the hardware, but will there be more lucrative targets? and the wider Cost/Risk/Reward relationship keeping it at bay for now. |
