[XMR] Monero Speculation

[farfiman]

Monero as in Money Nero = Black Money? Shitty name if you're looking for trouble.

You should consider a rebranding like Dash did.

No. Make sure your assumptions are correct before commenting on them.
Monero is "currency" in Esperanto.

The nero=black suffix is still there and ugly if you ask me. Doesn't look good.

you can also choose from these multiple options.
jeez

Yeah whatever. It's a name destined to fail. No one will take black money seriously. It's cool if you only wanna spend it for underground drug dealing BS but that's pretty much it. No way this will go mainstream unless you go through a re-branding like Dash did from Darkcoin.

Money Nero has long way to go.

Once you've had black you never go back--especially if the choices are between an opaque blockchain and a clear one.

I think you've made the argument for the name stronger, not weaker.

Well at least one of you guys has the balls to say it like it is. You're wrong though. The Black Money name is good for a limited niche of cryptodope fiends, smoking stuff bought from your black market of choice but poor choice if you want to have a broad appeal.

You are just obnoxiously trolling at the moment. Like binaryFate stated, Monero means "currency" in esperanto.

Are you implicitely saying I am smoking stuff and buying from black markets because I own Moneros?

Privacy is practical for most of the people IMO. When 1 XMR is 2000 USD, the last thing I want is people to know I am holding such a treasure. It puts me under many threaths despite I am not a criminal but a decent guy who pays taxes to the governement.

Hah. The irony with this statement is that is exactly what Monero was telling Darkcoiners almost two years ago.

The difference is that Monero as a name has nothing to do with the darkweb.

Nice try though.

Darkcoin has no future as the name is autotoxic and a branding disaster. It could never go mainstream. Bitcoin already has a hard time in the media segregating itself from the so-called "dark web".

I'm pretty sure that everyone actually understands this.

The Italian black money connotation may make some sense to the Mafia, but the word Dinero (Spanish for money) has the same suffix. For anyone like myself, who speaks both English and Spanish the word Monero connotes money pure and simple. There are far more people in the world who speak Spanish than Italian.

Edit: Someone who speaks both Spanish and Italian may connote that all money is black.

I didn't imply that Monero was for the dark web only, I was implying that any digital cash benefits from being an opaque blockchain rather than a clear one--fungibility.

Current trend looks like this:

TL;DR bullish trend, may breakout soon.

Fungibility rather than privacy is actually the killer anon application of Monero. With fiat cash one does not have to concern oneself that the cash on has legally and legitimately earned is not good because some proprietary algorithm alleges that that same bill was used in a drug transaction twenty transactions back. With a digital currency the same thing can best be accomplished with an opaque blockchain.

Here are some companies that are using proprietary algorithms to make these kind of allegations in Bitcoin:

It is the same pattern that BTC & Gold did:

I think the name is perfect, Esperanto is supposed to be a universal constructed language while Monero is a universal constructed currency.  It also doesn't have "coin" in it which is something Dash got right.

Esperanto is just a big failed experiment just like moNERO. Everyone's speaking English these days. No one gives a shit about Esperanto. Just some useless concoction of some fools in academia.

There is no cure for Herpes, so might as well ignore it. Thank you for trolling.

The devs running this coin should go to jail for defrauding investors, fooling them into buying into an orchestrated pump.

They've paid some Poloniex day traders few k to fool around with the coin.

From a coin with a shitty daily volume of 20-30k/day USD few weeks ago it grew to 800k volume. Give me a break.

I don't think I have ever seen it this high:

Where was this concern when NEO & BEE was going under two years ago?

@uhoh

We've heard from Danny on Monday. Let's give it few more days at least for more updates. Danny is working to come before us with something concrete, like a resolution and a plan to move things forward. He said as much in his Monday statement. Let's give the guy a breather and a few days to work things out.

We can be passive and moan about it, give more ammo to competitor paid shills, fall into their traps or try to be proactive and help out as much as we can. I'm personally not much of a fan of the lazy distant type of investor, who sits on his ass waiting for the paycheck to come. We can all get involved to help Neo grow, each one of us can contribute to the efforts. If not by actually promoting it and helping out in a direct way, we should at least keep our emo fits and tantrums in check.

Be sure that if Danny doesn't come forward with specific statements, he has good reasons for it and many of these are in the best interest of shareholders. I can mention a few in PMs if you want.

If you are going to come out of the woodwork two years after vouching for a scam (where were you all that time?), then your first move shouldn't be screaming scam when there isn't one. Maybe get a new account or build back what little reputation you squandered. If you are getting paid, I hope they get a refund.

That's not very civil of you now is it? Let's try and behave, mkay?

Do you think it's natural for a coin to go from 20-30k USD volume few weeks ago to 800k? You see nothing wrong with that? I know you want your precious to go to Moon and back and even to Uranus but try and put the bias aside for a bit.
