[XMR] Monero Speculation

[nioc]

I'm pissed I didn't have any BTC avail when the dump hit. still waiting on fucking coinbase slow train to hell.

I haven't used them but I hear Circle is very fast once it's set up.

Given the current volume we could be going down soon as long as there isn't any concrete news.

What exactly do you mean by what's bold above? What news are you talking about?

Such as the release of 0.9

I know I know it's coming soon 

We can speculate whether it will make a difference in the short term but without it we ain't going anywhere.

I dont think it will make any significant difference. I compiled yesterday from github for linux, and I only got irritated as it started downloading blockchain again. Since I was not in a mood of downloading 6 GBs (?) of blockchain again, chose to stick with 0.8.8 version for now.

There are several methods to convert the existing blockchain.

I finally downloaded GingerAle's windows ~0.9 binary yesterday.  I don't know when he created it and therefore how up to date it is vs what's now available.  I started to sync from scratch which was very fast with my minimal computer.  I had to leave midway and it seemed it would only take an hour.  When I came back it was stuck at 270 blocks behind.  When I tried to exit it said it had stopped but nothing else happened.  So I closed the daemon with nothing saved.

Wait, is this the speculation thread

So I continue to wait for the 0.9 release.  I remember last October deciding not to upgrade my memory because there was discussion that the database would be ready around the end that year.  At least now we actually have a database.


Anyway I just lowered my bids.

bummer. for the record, the link in my sig is not *my* win64 beta binaries, they were the ones released for testing.
when you say "stuck".. what happened? Did you try restarting it? sorry for the OT.

If that is true it should be good for the price. Less coins for botnet owners to dump on the market as they are mined.

Or maybe price is low enough that it switched to mining something else...

Good how? It will be stable, will go down, or go up?

Hopefully that's the end of the mystery dumping.

DASH : 970 K  , MONERO : 165 K.  it s because of smoothie and icebreaker. Dash raises again but Monero crashes. I m not a fudder. I love monero but smoothie and icebreaker are just embarrassment for your community. They just fud DASH or Evan (maybe jealous of him) Instead of help monero. They are dangerous for your community. I hope monero rises again but it's much difficult with legendary trolls. Smoothie and icebreaker please use your energy for monero. You cannot win this war because we are so strong. And special thanks for smooth...

And you don't think the cryptsy exodus combined with dash's cryptsy volume had any effect today? No, all because of icebreaker and smoothie are criticizing dash? You sure you want to walk around BCT espousing BS?

vv Going from this

 It s time to sell Monero Look at that price https://www.poloniex.com/exchange#btc_xmr

 Is there any plan to save Monero? or do we all abandon this sinking ship?

vv to this in a matter of hours shows you're either bipolar, have a memory deficiency, or are stupid enough to believe this BS effects markets. I'm going with the latter.

Many people can't seem to distinguish smooth and smoothie :-P

Anyway, let's go back to speculation.

yeah i mean smoothie not smooth. Monero community have to survive these legendary dogs (smoothie and icebreaker and their alter accounts(adamwhite,thedasher etc.))

Anyway let's go back to speculation. to me it s time to buy monero now coz it ll hit 220 k soon . it s just a feeling not an analyse.

This thread is getting annoying to read, primarily because of you.  You've pretty much turned this into a shit talking thread, and not about Monero it's self, and it's getting pretty annoying... Everytime I check this thread when it says someone else has posted here, I just hope the topic has changed and we can get into the latest with XMR...

But nope, it's just you guys spouting off childish "trolling" stuff just "for the lulz"... Can we get back on topic please?

Seems like monero.net dropped off, they had a significant amount of hashrate if I recall correctly.

@olcaytu2005

It is no necessary to point here or criticize about the trolling in the Dash thread or in the alt section. This is not the right place.
Just my opinion.

Just so you guys know, I'm from the xmr community and I have icebreaker on ignore too.
