Actually got my coins, thanks very much! I hope the improvements make it to implementation - you guys have built something good and it would be cool to see it gain a real edge on the rest.
guys, keep posting suggestions because if they're actually taking notice and doing them then we can get a half decent exchange going here! ..Thanks for the reward again

Tx fees are based on the original money supply.

No additional coin production + lost coins etc would cause exactly that deflation in the supply which would cause inflation on the price (value increase).

It isn't the value issue I have with transaction fees, it is the fact that for transaction fees to exceed marginal costs (i.e. to serve as a funding source for proof-of-work), mining has to be monopolized, and then other problems flow from there. I can't believe that is what Satoshi intended.

I know there is a comment or two from him where he considered the whole mining model to be a bit unfinished, so perhaps he just solved what he could and then moved on.

Indeed, I've yet to see a convincing argument (quite possible I havent looked hard enough) that Bitcoin tx fees will be enough by themselves to fund a sufficiently decentralised mining network, and miners are the only ones who really have an incentive to run full nodes too.

My personal view is that the future usage of Monero will be less about being an alternative to Paypal/credit cards (which would provide a high daily tx volume relative to value), and more about discretely moving wealth (lower tx volume but with higher value), so tx fees only block reward will be comparatively less than what Bitcoin might achieve.

Its possible that other services could be grafted on to Monero mining pools to add value - even with the move to db storage for the blockchain it still has a high storage and processing requirement to maintain a wallet. There has been some discussion already about a "thin wallet" client that relies on a hosted service, perhaps a future evolution might see wallet users paying a small fee to pools/miners for providing that. Or a different sort of merged mining where the network can be utilised as a sort of distributed supercomputer for hire, in addition to block solving work miners can be submitting shares for work on third party computing tasks.

My point is that a perpetual block reward may not be necessary to keep the network secured if some lateral thinking is applied, however "not necessary" doesn't mean it may not be desirable for other reasons.

Is there anyone here who is mining XMR only, no other coins? Will it be profitable?

Yup, but I'm mining to hold. No interest in selling any this year, and probably not 2015 either. I am not sure about short term profitability.

I have been mining XMR exclusively for around 6 weeks now. I have yet to sell a single XMR. It is already profitable but you might make more short term with other coins.

I also keep buying more on exchanges when I think the price is right.

Hey guys!

I decided to launch special campaign which will give you an opportunity to get 0% PPLNS fee for a month on Minergate.com.

1. Take a photo of your mining rig with a list of paper in front, which is saying “I mine on Minergate using YOUR EQUIPMENT”  (YOUR EQUPMENT – equipment you use for mining)
2. Post photo in Twitter with a message “I earn #user_currency on #cryptonote #miningpool @MinerGate minergate.com”(user_currency – coin you mine)
3. Post a link to your tweet in our topic in Bitcointalk https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=528848.1080
4. PM me with a link to your post and email you use for mining

Hope you will enjoy this little entertainment and waiting for your photos!

Does it make any sense to try mining monero with the use of a laptop?

My PC needs repair and I’m thinking of switching to laptop for a while.

[slavo]

Depends on the laptops specs - mine is pretty weak comparing to my desktop. You won’t get much and most likely it won’t even be enough to pay your electricity bill.

I won’t be surprised if I wake up once to find monero dead and gone.

I wont be suprised if you are already butthurted and you are going to be even more soon.

[celestio]

It's odd that most newbie members have 99% of their post history corresponding about XMR in ways that don't even make sense. Bytecoin sockpuppet accounts, obvious is obvious.

Can you tell me the names of stakeholders if you’re so positive? To me it sounds like total nonsense.

Yeah it's too obvious.

Why else would you go troll in a thread of a coin you aren't interested in?

But we all know Monero will end up at the top and Bytecoin bagholders will all end in tears, what else would you expect from a 82% premined coin?
