[XMR] Monero - A secure, private, untraceable cryptocurrency

[Hueristic]

So in the past month i got really heavily invested in monero for the long hodl, because I really believe in this project, but after reading some reddit FUD I became a bit concerned. In the monero cons thread someone mentioned that competition like zcash for example might be able to easily outpace monero as we close to global adoption, simply because of the difference in the funding structure of the two coins, citing that projects like zcash have big money behind them instead of relying solely on the donations from the community.

Could someone alleviate my concerns about this? I intend to hodl, but if this concern is legit I might have to take this into account.

Zcashes trend line was predicted in this thread when it was launched and that trend has held true to that prediction and it will not change. It will continue to slowly fade away. DYOR and just read the threads from it's launch, everything forecasted has come to pass and then marvel at the beauty of Zooko wearing a monero labs t-shirt.



^^^--- What does that tell you?

BTW looking at that coffee table it looks like lines were being done with a bowie knife, or maybe making some fake ID's Or both!

I used to have some coins that I lost my wallet I still remember at the start of the monero there was a distribution of coins giving 25 coins to everyone

Are there other reliable instant/account-less crypto-crypto exchanges? That Erik dude recently turned to the dark side.

It sounds more like you're seeking affirmation; the Stuart Smalley kinda affirmation. I'd spend an itsy-bitsy portion of that huge XMR investment of yours to pay for a shrink. He'd/she'd be more in a position to professionally alleviate your concerns rather than seeking for it in a forum.

Nah! Those are open razor blade marks left after making coke lines.

It seems that xmr have found their strong support. recently, around the coin goes a lot of rumors, and not always very good. I closely follow the team and the coin itself.

In summer was the first #FFS from a Russian-speaking teammate, the main translator of XMR.RU --> Mr. Pickles.

That FFS was fully funded and here is the first report:

Not sure if there is a thread like this before, but I made a "Stake your Monero address" thread where people can sign a message from your personal Monero wallet for future account verification and other things as a security measure for your Bitcointalk accounts.

I invite everyone to come check it out and sign your main favourite hot wallet

There was lot of hype for bullet proofs feature's implementation and if not everyone but most people were expecting its impact on XMR's price. This activation immediate benefit has shown by reduce in withdrawal fees from exchanges. Monero once again has shown to be best than many others. Market should show uptrend anytime without prior alert so hold on tight as speculative phase is approaching fast.

Bull market forms for a long time. Imagine it like boiling water cooking. And the breakout will happen when we will least expect.  Bulletproofs and all development and all publicity that Monero is gaining right now are just adding the steam.

recently, around the coin goes a lot of rumors, I think the hard fork is a good but it does not solve the real problem. but I believe that anonymity will be in gold next year

Me too, I don't remember the airdrop. Damn maybe I misplaced those coins too!

Hah, I have been feeling the last week that I need to put some lowball offers in but had not been at my home system until the other day. But when I saw this post I said to myself "Shit I better get those bids in before I miss them getting filled" and I just got them in before I crashed last night and some of them are filled now! Nice.
Thanks for the reminder.

This is a great sideways market for those of us that need to accumulate. I have 5 times more right now than I had last year at this time (and am probably underwater) but I keep cost averaging every week/month as much as I can.

Monero is very easy to use with cake wallet on iPhone or moneruj on android . It will always have a real world use case because it is private by default. I have no tech skills whatsoever and I can use monero so I’m quite sure that anyone can.

... the beauty of Zooko wearing a monero labs t-shirt.

wtf, is that guy Zooko ... I thought he was fluffypony's transfusion associate, the dude looks 'high' on cholesterol and blood sugars ... I assumed he must be the monero dev team's blood boy

Really? Where were these most people at? We in this thread have figured it was priced in since it was held back from the previous fork. I didn't see any Hype here even though it is one of the biggest improvements in years.

The markets are irrational now with this institutional fuckery so don't be surprised that crap is valued higher than actual utilitarian Tech.

Post-Bulletproof tx fees are fantastic for users but I was wondering; has the block reward changed to balance this out for miners? xmr is new stable coin, as i think.

Miners gonna mine, the fee's are neglishable.

No blood bags in the classic series, that's what he was referencing.

I watched the original in the movies, sucked when Goose got it.
