Hi to all!

what do you think about monero price in near future? It seems like Monero is among the only coins that werent pumped recently, so is that a good sign to invest in it right now? Or it is too big to show us a good rise?
Thanks!

Fantastic news

Guys Idk about you but XMR is so undervalued right now that one medium big news gonna launch us to several billions. And one big news like coinbase adoption means place in the first 4 coins.

Except Coinbase is totally fucked right now.
I would advise anyone to not use their service. If you have any issue with your account you will be waiting weeks or months for a response from support.
They are too busy spending money on facebook ads to hire personnel or make improvements to the website/ backend.
(Website was down several times yesterday.)
Maybe things will improve in the coming months but for now Monero doesn't need them to be successful. Its way undervalued and if you don't own some of these coins in a few years you are going to regret it. I would be very surprised if XMR wasn't $100 by this time next year.
Monero is the GNU Linux of the Crypto world. It doesn't need ads or corporate sponsors. Hard work and good code will prevail over time. This is a long-term project.

Monero is undervalued. A fair market cap would be over $1 billion - more than Dash, but maybe less than Litecoin for now. A speculative bubble, as we've seen with so many other coins could take Monero to $2 Billion+. And those are all very conservative estimates.

Whether Coinbase is fucked or not, I believe that Coinbase adoption would be great for Monero. To extend your analogy, if Monero is the linux of Crypto then Coinbase could do for it what Red Hat did for linux.

At some point coinbase had 50000 new accounts made per day. So I am sure that times were hectic.  I woudl expect that on any exchange actually. But those most popular have biggest activity spikes. One of those is also Poloniex. If it will go like this we will see soon constantly over 100k people online on Poloniex. And this soon might happen really soon if Bitcoin will keep getting new ATHs.


About Monero, I said long long time ago that when price reach $50 I will sell 10% of my Moneros and when price doubles so is $100 another 10% and at $200 next 10%.   Now price reach $50 two times in almost a week and I classically did nothing    What should I buy for that 10% BTC? Gold? Chilean farming land?

Easily. Monero is already at 53$ right now, that’s already halfway there. I’m sure with the current market we could easily reach 100$ and even aim for 150$.

Nice thread on Monero from reddit/darknetmarkets today:

I just did my first transaction with monero and I am amazed. Not only it was much faster than bitcoin but I also didn't have to worry about tumbling and on 150$ order I have payed 0.15$ fee :O I have no idea why more people and more vendors aren't using it. You can even buy it directly on an exchange from EUR/USD and after you transfer it to your wallet all ties are lost.

Although it seems to be a brand new user, so could be a shill...

I expect the price of Monero to go up to 65$ the coming week. I've heard the news that a lot of dark markets are is in the process of adding support for monero because bitcoin's fees are apparently way too expensive.

Monero probably isn't going to be added to Coinbase anytime soon.

I was listening to a talk from Charlie Lee (who works at Coinbase). He was talking about LTC and the potential of getting it added to Coinbase. Anyway, he mentioned that LTC volume on GDAX (exchange owned by Coinbase) has to be consistently high enough before Coinbase would consider adding LTC.

Monero isn't even listed on GDAX. That will probably have to be the first step.

Why does Coinbase only list coins that have high volume on GDAX? Cause they don't want to rely on / go to a 3rd party exchange to source their coins.

Coinbase listed LTC like a month ago. It was part of the big LTC price increase from $4 where was last 2 years to $30.
You most likely listened some old audio, so you were right Monero was not listed n Coinbase quiet some time from time that that audio happened.
