[XMR] Monero Speculation

[bbreconomy]

When Monero was listed, David Latapie approached me on PM. He laid out the reasons why I should invest. I did.

He got to you before I did?

Yes, the next day following the listing in Polo. I had acknowledged the project before but not researched it during the inception, takeover, otc and cryptonote-exchange days (in total numbering about 30 days).

So I am one of the most senior of the monerenoj as well, having been involved for 90% of the coin's existence.

ADD: I checked that your contact was later. Perhaps the critical threshold was your PM. It's important to get recommendation from existing contacts, (David I did not know at all that time).

Can this information be used to fish other people like me into the coin? I am sure both they and the community benefit 

I agree that a thoughtful approach of more people of influence can make a difference, such as which occurred in your case.

The contact must be tailored and personal to be effective.

Perhaps they are not done accumulating yet.

That, and perhaps Cryptsy was also bribed with insta-mined DASH to delay adding an obviously superior competitor.

We know Cryptsy has zero ethics because:

1) they ignore the votes and BTC in support of adding XMR
2) they conspired with GAW/JoshGarza/PayCoin to perpetuate the 'PrimeController' cloud mining fraud.

'Prime Controller' sounds a lot like 'MasterNode.'  Both HYIPs promise to deliver gold donkeys via centralized PoS.  What a coincidence!

Now that KoziTwo's payment gateway is done, Cryptsy has no excuse for XMR's conspicuous continued absence.

I think they're just waiting for the GUI. I don't see the average Cryptsy user being all that bright. With the added 'complication' of transaction IDs and 'Hey Cryptsy, where the hell has my XMR deposit gone?' overloading Cryptsy's support to the point of meltdown... its probably not a bad thing. If the system appears to look dysfunctional to the average idiot then it may be better to wait.

seems like we are still in a downtrend

I was considering buying some Monero with the prices falling recently, but do not like that it only trades on 1 exchange. Do you guys know if any other exchanges are planning to add XMR any time soon? Currently 100% of my crypto holdings are in Bitcoin, and I was wanting to speculate just for the hell of it. Maybe I should hit up fluffy for an OTC trade or something..

FYI I am not a day trader...so I would be buying and HODLing.

The option available besides Poloniex and OTC is Shapeshift.io - but the amount available there fluctuates and is usually a smaller amount.  So if you are looking for a larger amount, try and catch the dumps on Poleniex or do an OTC trade.

XMR is also listed in Bittrex

Thanks for the replies...I would not be buying a huge amount maybe 5-10BTC worth just to see how it does long term. The only real negative I am seeing is that Icebreaker likes this coin, but I can look past that 

I guess I will just slowly buy off Poloneix to spread my buying price out.

Lets not forget they delay deposits for weeks on huge volume spikes to arbitrage themselves. This is when I stopped using them during the Doge explosion. And the real name is Craptsy Dammit.

Hi TrueCryptonaire

Shoving your head down on your arse doesn't count as downtrend. Newbies thinking about entering Monero, beware. Now this coin is going the BTC way and you will be swimming with a lot of filth.

Well, typically when one stack of XMR on the left side of the chart, dances around another stack of XMR on the right side of the chart, they often and up kissing somewhere in the middle, and then disappear in the blink of an eye and a few seconds later a price is born!

What's going on with the low volume?

What's going on with the low volume?

I assume people are waiting and watching. What's the rush?

[medusa13]

us dollar top? how would crypto and monero be affected by this?

[oblox]

us dollar top? how would crypto and monero be affected by this?

I don't think you can even say the dollar is remotely close to a potential top for the long-term trend. Short-term, perhaps after such an exhaustive move. Talk to me when we are back below the trendline from the 80s.

[medusa13]

yes i agree with you. maybe its just me still being denial about this possible break out.

[Gabri]

Low volume today...
