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

[dEBRUYNE]

Please try applying the ban list:

1. Download this file and place it in the same folder as `monerod` / `monero-wallet-gui`: https://gui.xmr.pm/files/block_tor.txt

2. Go to the `Settings` page -> `Node` tab.

3. Enter

Code:

--ban-list block_tor.txt 

in `daemon startup flags` box.

4. Restart the GUI (and daemon).

Oh wow, thank you, I have been having this issue for a while now and I always just resort to the CLI since I was thinking it was just me. Will try this and update shortly, thanks as always dEBRUYNE!

You're welcome

With out reading all the posts above i am wondering if XMR price movement is as tied to Bitcoin like Ethereum is ?
It has been doing well the last 3 months its good to see this coin is still strongly used - payment ; mining ; plenty nodes on the network etc...

Personally I tend to think it sticks more to USDT. I also think it is and has been way undervalued for quite some time.

Lord, hear our prayers!


and by the way there is a thread for price speculation here.

Hello All,

I love this Monero Coin!! I have been trading for a while now, but like mentioned, it seems to be undervalued and I am bagging the coin. 

Best wishes for the upcoming New Year!!

CHeers,
Waya

We all know the benefits of Monero and expect better prospects in the future, but apparently the government is very serious about creating problems. Recently, the media mentioned that the analytical company CipherTrace was able to track Monero transactions and this tool was created by order of the US Department of Homeland Security. In addition, the very popular ShapeShift platform, which allowed exchanging cryptocurrencies anonymously in order to avoid legal problems, delisted Monero. The impression is that something is not good.

Bittrex delisted Monero along with ZCash and Dash which was a weird decision sparking concerns about a regulator crackdown on privacy coins.
Monero is known to have the best privacy and we have also read previously about the IRS hiring Chainalysis to find a way to trace the transactions.

Can Bittrex know something others don't or acted before anyone else for their own reasons? Will Monero be delisted by more exchanges? Price drops and I'll be waiting to buy.

Bittrex has always had shit volume that was driven by arbitrage and nothing else.

They have major problems with regulators and are trying to show what good little boys they are.

Yes in that respect it does seem a bit token (pun)

other coins have much bigger issues right now.

That may be the case here. Bittrex has already lost its luster among crypto users. But let's see if Binance.US will follow on this move. If not, bittrex is just deciding on their own even without any threat from regulatory bodies. XMR has a lot of users, so I don't think it will go down just like what XRP is experiencing right now.

Agreed. Bittrex also has not delisted other anonymous coins Aeon and Grin. This makes me speculate that Bittrex only does not want to spend on legal advice on how to proceed with anonymous coins but also want to be safe hehe.

@smooth. Did Bittrex contact anyone from Monero’s development team before the announcement?

Let's see if they list again in 6 months

Rough waters ahead for privacy coins. Best of luck to see who survives.

Who needs Bittrex. Support the exchanges that also support Monero.

Open source developer grants from Kraken have also been available for XMR for a few weeks now.

I remember bittrex delisted bitshares (in fear of listing security tokens just because bts has shares in its name :d)
But in the other hand it is only matter of time when governments will fight against privacy crypto!
