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

[ProGamer]

Hi!

Just a friendly member of the Stealthcoin community dropping by to tell you that the Bitcointalk user known as "Stealthcoin" is not associated in anyway with Stealthcoin or it's development. I've seen many Monero supporters lash out at Stealthcoin because of this users actions. User: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=209332

Competition for anonymous coins is good. It means better quality, more competitive and more people promoting privacy oriented software and trade! Good luck to Monero!


Once again, the user "Stealthcoin" is not associated in any way with the crypto currency known as Stealthcoin!

Thank you

If anyone sees people mistaking the user "Stealthcoin" for being a community member or a developer of Stealthcoin, please correct them in a polite manner!

he is claiming to have started the time warp attack and that it takes a couple days
not sure if he will be combining TW attack with anything else
so stay vigilant and dont assume silence means all is well
dont assume silence means anything is wrong either

James

Thank you for the good advice James. We're vigilant.

72 hours + 72 hours = DSCA (Dev Sleep Cycle Attack)

This just in: BCX has channeled all his hash power into a worm hole through which he can traverse space-time.
You have 72 hours to devise a defense.

The Dr. is in.

Enjoyed! Much better than the piecemeal story I was envisioning from the forums. Would be cool to see a write-up of this posted on one of the crypto-news agencies.

Is it in bad taste to offer a bounty for someone who can give bcx a taste of his own medicine?

Aesthetically, it is just, but morally it is not, because you are held to a higher standard than those you judge.

I don know if that will make sense to you, but I think it is a deep truth.

[aminorex]

I have no opinion on timewarp attacks or any other type of possible attack. If BCX has a time machine, then all coins are in trouble.

If bcx has a time machine, I think all coins are safe, because he has bigger fish to fry.  For....now.

There is more trolls on this site than in a Tolkien novel and it's getting worse.

no fkn joke.  if u can't beat em - join em ... only way to survive this altcoin hell

you went to the harshest, most demanding school.  yet failed to learn the correct lesson.

Jl777 himself said to be careful, that ring signatures might not work.

Invest at your own risk is what I think he said actually
In one ear and out the other = Major losses. Wake up people.

Is it true?

James was nice to us and we should be nice to James.  That means a wrenching change from the empirically justified default prior assumption of altcoin scamminess, to a more generous stance, in which the default assumption is good will.  One might still be critical of the structure of James' enterprises (or not!) without any hostility to James.

Whereas you might have considered his advice "Invest at your own risk" in its context (or in its misleading out-of-context quotation) to be an inimical effort to poison the public mind and common knowledge against the virtues of Monero (in particular, as everyone loves and protects their children),  now, out of respect for his role in the BCX affair (such as it is) one should respect him well enough to attribute good will, and understand that in its original and intended context his words were simply sound advice to the naive investor.

Monero had it's run, don't get stuck with the bag.
You can see smart devs and investors are selling

Is it true?

BlackWidow, on the other hand -- and why not "BlockWidow", which would have been far more clever? --  has earned no such moral variance from rational estimation, and should be considered on par with the newbie bytecoin  shill/troll/shrills.


I know that it's all a lot of tedious drama, but having been chosen by providence and our choices to live through these experiences, let us at least draw from them the appropriate, empowering and uplifting lessons.

[... shill ...]

But Is It True?

Seriously though, this episode did not disappoint. When I read BullBear's reportage on the events I feel like reading the script to a Cold War spy movie.

Nice job, but I think you need to adjust your 24hr volume to the moon launch setting.

It's not photoshopped - it's a flashforward to a possible reality. I took a screenshot too...

It looks like the coinmarketcap markets page for XMR is getting XMR/BC data from Bittrex right now, instead of XMR/BTC, which is messing up the average price, putting XMR at #2 on the main page: http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/monero/#markets

The XMR/BC data on Bittrex isn't even right (has a massive spike): https://bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BC-XMR

Edit: Looks to be fixed already.

Damn, i was hoping it was just Polo that hadn't caught up yet

Supposedly one person made a very small XMR/BC trade at a terrible price (probably by mistake) and that is messing up the data. They should really be using a volume-weighted price.
