[XMR] Monero Speculation

[CTTE]

At least it looks like we have strong volume going into the weekend...    Sometimes the volume gets so low, it's really easy to dump it down even further without it costing much. I'm wondering if we have big players (?Coinbase? or other btc whales) pushing the price down to accumulate since we've seen the price suppression after a big dump with the significant sell walls.

Hopefully, people will see their chance to load up. I've been buying all the way down and I could stand for a bit of price recovery right now.

I believe monero will drop slowly within a month till around 0.01, with a max (short) fall to 0.0087..

Oh my GOD.  Praise be to FluffyPony!  Anybody want to make a passage from the book of Fluffy?  Bonus points for including the exit scam!

Back on topic.  The Cointelegraph article here:  https://cointelegraph.com/news/jaxx-cancels-monero-integration-cites-difficulties-working-with-community.  That Jaxx/XMR "miscommunication" happened 2 months ago. I had a feeling they were going to back out since they made such a fuss about minor issues and flip-flopping when called out.   Full Reddit link:  https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/5dsqrf/jaxx_monero_integration_update_3/

Seems he just reads reddit and summarise all without any critical eye to weed out what is a sarcasm and what is trolling and what ...

i am quite optimistic about monero the design is great, many people use it and its a coin that is used in deepweb.
ethereum seems to be unstable (as a programm) and the other altcoins seems to be just bitcoin clones with empty promisings and no sence (trumpcoin,putincoin, potcoin and all this shit). monero put some quality and it has a rising tendency in price. dash is also a coin that seems to be a part of the good ones. but nobody use it. just as a speculation object. thats why i think dash is a step below of monero. it didnt make the step to be used. just like ether and all the other coins.

i also think for long term the amount of bitcoin users increase from time to time people will put their money in monero when they are unsure about the price development as a second investment for holding the money in unsafe times to still make some money. i believe in one year monero will be worth double or triple since the bitcoin price will also increase to maybe 1600 dollars.

- its a coin that is used in deepweb (alphabay)
- no shitcoin no crappy promisings
- stable software and great anonymity

kryptocoins are not at that far to replace fiat. the main part of kryptos are still anonymity in payments trust.
bitcoin is a kind of harbor for unsafe times + speculation object + buying and selling anonymous
monero fulfils the requirments to be a harbor for the harbor and thats all what people need.

   All is calm, waiting to see what bitcoin is going to do...  To me it looks like it's going to explode.  Soon.  I bet that will give us another XMR spike down.  And then?

Bought what I could @ 0.01221500. No more BTC left.

I also topped up at .0122    Still somewhat apprehensive, knowing the BTC spike up usually pulls the rug out from XMR briefly.

The question is: Which strategy is demonstrably more successful? Amanda B Johnson is a paid PR employee who's job it is to project Dash in a certain light, which is a form of "truth processing" for the purposes of growing a community and encouraging investment. Fluffypony on the other hand, simply tells the truth at the obvious expense of investment evangelicalism. In fact, he specifically says "Don't invest in Monero. It's a risky project that is still in its infancy". Any criticism of Dash is simply an extension of his fearlessness of the truth, and the understanding that if a project is a scam then it should be called out as such. The irony is, that despite these approaches having been in existence for a few years now, the Dash community is now far far smaller than the Monero community. Dash was once considered the "go to" privacy-orientated coin, while Monero was a relatively smaller project. These days, Dash is lucky if it can get more than 15 subreddit users online at the same time, while Monero is averaging 50-60. The IRC stats reflect the same ratio, with Monero averaging around 300 users online which is on a parallel with Ethereum. Dash IRC stats on the other hand are still only averaging 80-100. So yeah, Monero's approach may well deviate from the text-book model of marketing, but the fact remains, it is demonstrably the more successful mechanism. In this cynical age, people have a far greater affinity for truth and for telling it how it is, while rejecting the finely polished aesthetics of marketing overkill. The proof is in the pudding. My only criticism of FP's video about Dash, is that it actually was targeting the wrong coin. He really should have focussed on ZCash, because the longer that the Monero vs Dash debate goes on, the easier it is for Zcash to quietly ride off into the sunset and steal the prize.

Awesome response to Adam Meister's latest video on Youtube. Video seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xC-hUV1tW5A

I speculate bananas.

Monero still seems like a decent buy for long-term hold.
I don't think you're going to get rich overnight, but if you hold for a few years it could easily double or triple in price.

I think Monero could relatively easily rise 10 times against bitcoin in the coming few years or so.
When it comes to speculating 2017, it is unlikely it will be 0.10 btc this year but I see 0.02-0.03 more realistic towards the end of 2017.
In my opinion, the current price is a bargain. I am not saying it cannot go lower than this (sure it can) but the price at low 0.01's are considered of a bargain. Bear in mind, Aminorex told us 0.018 is cheap coins so what is the current price then?

Do not go all in though.

I already doubled in price a few weeks ago.  I don't think you need to hold for a few years until it does it again.  But time will tell.  It is obviously very volatile.

Whoops... oh, shit! Now you tell me? 

LOL man, too late...

I believe doubling/tripling in price is very low for the timespan of a few years. If monero is added on coinbase and ledger hardware wallet supports monero, the price will easily 2x/3x in price most likely as there won't be many reasons to not feel secure with monero

[novag]

I think no we go to 0.0149-0.0155

[poptop]

I think monero is going to 0,01 or below because of btc's rising and the problem of jaxx integration. Xmr team shouldn't have let it.
