Cryptoaltex.com is holding right around 0.5 btc trade volume per day.
IMHO those of you selling at cryptoaltex.com are selling far to cheap.
The cheapest sell order right now is 0.00002700
I think you guys will be kicking yourselves in the but in a few months time for selling so cheap.
Right now (all things being equal) we should have a value of 0.00009066
Here's a simple way to show that. Taking the only other coin that uses Heft1 algorithm which is HVC.
HVC currently has a reward per block of 616 coins and it has buy orders at Mintpal.com at 0.00000592 and at poloniex.com for 0.00000723
Each block of HVC is worth 0.00445368 btc. Divide that by 50 MNR (per block) 0.00008907.
MNR is under-valued by almost a factor of 3+.
Another way to look at it is for the same algorithm (roughly minus voting) you can get reward of 616 vs 50 per block or 12.3 more coins on HVC vs MNR. Hence MNR should be roughly worth 12.3 times more valuable then HVC all else being equal.
HVC does have a variable reward block that changes and is also on multiple exchanges which of course helps with value but I still think it pretty clear that MNR is far under-valued at present and people are selling to cheaply. There is only one buy order sitting on CryptoALTex at the moment with a ridiculous buy price of 500. This clearly shows that 0.5 btc of MNR is being picked off at the lowest selling price what-ever that may be at the time. If the selling price was higher it would still be getting picked off.
For those that haven't noticed, the MNR global hash rate has substantially dropped. Probably due to a few reasons which are:
1) selling price of MNR is to cheap. Some people getting scrared off thinking the coin isn't worth it.
2) people mining other coins, selling to btc, transfering btc to Cryptoaltex and buying MNR. Probably at least 0.5 btc of this happening a day.
What needs to happen.
a) people stop selling so cheaply. Drive the price of MNR up and not down. Everyone will benefit from this long term.
b) more people needed to buy up the cheap supply of MNR currently on CryptoALTex which will raise the value of MNR
c) once the value of MNR is where it should be people will come back to mine it vs other coins because it will be worth doing
d) those that help buy up the cheap MNR on CryptoALTex right now will profit two fold as they get to buy cheap while helping to raise the value of MNR which helps the portfolio they are holding of MNR
What are your thoughts?
