Wow Monero margin trading on Polo Grin

Lending out some XMR as a test

You mean we can short XMR now?

Yes, I'm facilitating a couple shorts at the moment Smiley

Haters put your money where your mouth is and short XMR
 
 
And when that inevitable next move up comes, dudes gone get liquidated like-quick. 
 
Shorting Monero would be about the stupidest thing anyone can do, but by all means: now Haters can officially hate.

Yeah we will probably see some crazy volatility in the near future.

I like it  Cool

I'll do it if you give me 1 XMR for every XMR I short Smiley

I'll ask again: what other exchanges trades XMR and has a decent volume? i know bittrex has it cryptsy doesn't. I don't know many altcoin exchanges though.

Nah, Monero doesn't dip below 1500 satoshi even in the worst case scenario.  Likely, 2000 will hold.   
 
We will see though. 
 
One exchange has changed their reporting requirements; the currency is still the same.

When BTC was busy mooning on Gox, did shorting exist?

You mean when willybot was busy buying all BTC with fake USD? Cheesy

Quote
Counting the costs

The leaked logs show that $112 million was spent by Willy to buy approximately 270,000 bitcoin, the majority of which was bought in November 2013. This, the author claims, is predominant reason that the price of bitcoin increased so much in 2013; much more so than Chinese investments, the Silkroad takedown, and NYC trade hearings. In support of this, these bot trades coincide with increases in the bitcoin value on Mt Gox. Additionally, Markus gained around 300,000 BTC and $4 million (US) over its entire trading history. This gives a total of approximately 570,000 BTC .

I have all my monero at poloniex exchange. I haven't had the time to store them properly so I just left them there for now. I'm planning on transferring most to mymonero.com. Is that my safest bet?

It's a very safe bet, as long as you trust your computer not to be infected with keylogger-type malware.

Monero's privacy and therefore fungibility are MUCH stronger than Bitcoin's. 
This makes Monero a better candidate to deserve the term "digital cash".

If you want that extra security just make a linux bootable usb.

Everytime you get a pump the bears will short it to death. This revolution may not be cheap.

It will be fair and legitimate and if by golly Monero gets there it will be one the greatest accomplishment of mankind.

In the long run its a great thing. Anyone who is short will have to buy monero back at some point in order to pay back his loan anyway so its certainly not the end of the world. In the mean time they will temper the "irrational exuberance". Shorts smooth out the market and mitigate, to some extent, those giant spikes followed by crashes. I for one would rather take the stairs up than a cannon. At-least that way there is a chance of staying there. A parabolic rise is always accompanied by a crash. A smooth measured rise has a good chance of plateauing.

Hilarious.  That's a short lesson as to why you DO NOT short Monero. 
 
I mean, Monero isn't another shit coin.  It has true believers, some of which who have deep pockets.  If your shorts start threatening the long term reputation of Monero, all it takes is a few pennies out of the penny bank and fucking poof
 
Margin call, bitch.

Haha and if you are a monero bull, and you can force a bunch of margin calls, its like a self fulfilling prophecy as polo auto executes monero buy orders in response to your monero buy orders.

Hah, exactly. This is why I leverage-purchased moneroj on polo last night after BCX's dump to 230.

Wow, you guys are more bullish than i am. Without a working anonymous exchange i feel really bad regarding the short/middle term. I am mostly pissed at poloniex, that is why i sold my stash and took out my btcs before tomorrow, since that is the last possible day without giving away your details, and turned into bear.

Not gonna buy back without an anonymous exchange with at least some volume.

As I tried to explain a few weeks ago, Monero's scenario universe is such that it either fails comparably soon, or reaches a high value somewhat later.

How does the (so far not experienced, rather completely theorized) reduction in trading volume affect the scenarios?

It does not affect the magnitude of the upside to a quantifiable extent (it is too far in the future to be affected).
It does not affect the probability of total failure to a quantifiable extent (total failure is either technological or community-induced and not correlated).
It may increase of decrease the price of the coin in the short term (hard to say which one: my knee-jerk reaction was to buy XMR as long as I conveniently can, but apparently the economic majority last night wanted BTC instead).
