I do think that Monero is probably the best altcoin right now, since it actually does something major that Bitcoin doesn't, even if its scaling is terrible and it'll probably be replaced by a Bitcoin sidechain someday. Achieving Monero-style anonymity for everyone should be a long-term goal of Bitcoin.

Even the administrator of Bitcointalk considers Monero the best altcoin.

Price under $2.  Staggering potential!

You guys should really make a decision (and stand by it) who to make your god and why.
First it was TPTB_Need_War, but he seems like a fallen god by now watching the interaction between
your community and him (no offence TPTB). And now it seems to be Theymos ?
Well, good luck with that...

Also reading the first three posts in this thread, do i dare say : Monero Civil War ?  Roll Eyes

Why do we need a god? What is this blasphemy? There is no god and we are his prophets. Everyone will do their part, even you.

Ouch.  So he's like one step below the village idiot, whatever that would be.  Probably like someone on the sex offender registry (not accusing him of anything like that).

Is monero actually useful for anything?

WOW yes it has ok volume and is traded up/down like EVERY OTHER coin?! So??  That's all that chart shows. That's all it is, a tradeable coin!

Tell me how it's being useful or will BECOME useless and/or used?  Nobody or no company wants to bother with it real world.

Well a guy who actually cares about true anonymity uses it (Peter Todd), can't find him tweeting about any of the coins in your post history--I wonder why that is? Oh yeah, and this dude has an XMR address on his profile page https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=11425 Though I can't find any other but BTC. Wonder why that is?

A guy who calls himself trueanon should know more about anonymity (and certainly which coins are best at it) instead of pimping a bunch of coins that have nothing to do with anonymity or do it very, very badly. Now step off and get out of the way, little man. Or maybe try xmr.to or shapeshift and upgrade yourself to theformerposertrueanonwhonowatleastknowshowtoimprovehisanonymitybutprobablyneed storeadafewbooksbeforehegraspshowitworks.

why is it good, I always see just trolls hyping it, but isnt it just anonymous 1.0 crypto? It will probably be illegal.

Feel free to join us at /r/monero, we would be happy to provide you with whitepapers and math proving the anonymity of the coin. After RingCT releases, the privacy will be near-impregnable, barring a break of multiple widely used cryptographic primitives (and we would have more to worry about at that point than Monero). Ignore the trolls, and always do your due diligence before buying a cryptocurrency. If you don't understand Monero, don't buy any until you do.

Here is a question for you monero guys.

It always splits a single transaction into 10 different transactions showing up at 10 different address.

Since the none of the block chain transactions show up true , unless you get a view key.

Considering you guys are PoW based which means a 51% attack from processing power is possible,
how are you going to know when someone is double spending the crap out of your coin?


 Cool

 Cool

Every transaction has an associated "Key Image" that gets published when it gets spent. This key image can be mathematically associated with one of the addresses in a ring signature, without knowing which address specifically. Once a member transaction of a ring signature is spent, the key image is published, and any subsequent attempt to spend from that member (even with a totally different set of members in the ring) will produce the same key image. This is how double spends are detected.

1. All members of a ring signature were spendable at some point.
2. All members of a ring signature have a unique key image.
3. When a transaction is performed, a ring signature is generated, and a key image attached.
4. If the key image has not been previously published, then we know that at least one of the members of the ring signature has not been spent from, and the key image belongs to that member.
5. Thus, we can conclude that the ring signature is spending coins that have not previously been spent, and those coins came from a transaction that was at one point spendable. Therefore, there is no chance that this transaction is a double spend.

If you want some more information, I can pull up a (math heavy) whitepaper for you to refer to.
