Same here.
Over the last nearly 3 years I learned patience is the key.

Senser!  Love that album - Age of Panic was my personal fave track on that album.   I used to work with their label back in the 90's in my er.. former career.

That takes me back - did you ever see them live? 

On topic:

Patience? Yes - and accumulation! Dumping BCC for XMR feels delicious!

That said, I don't like Finex much (have to hold my nose to trade there) but Bittrex seem to have frozen my old account (even though they were happy for me to put coins IN before they told me) Grrr... 

No response from Bittrex support after 48 hours - don't use them for your BCC /BCH? before you test they will let you withdraw.

this might be a very noob question - actually, yes, it is... but it just struck me that I haven't the slightest...
Is monero a limited supply coin? Where would one find all this information easily accessible for all coins?

Wow fellow Senser fan. Yeah... funnily enough I saw them live back in 1994 at the Reading Festival...twas the first time I experienced what it was like to have a stage-diver inadvertently kick me in the head. All good fun though. (23 years ago wow).

Anyway I speculate a steady enthusiasm that will grow exponentially before ejaculation.

Anyone using nicehash and have an issue getting paid? A few months back I turned my htpc card to mining there and after 3 months and $100 of electric I finally got to the min allowed withdraw and nicehash wiped out my mining history when I took a month off. really weird it was only .012 or so that they owe. And the retard support guy wants me to prove I mined all that time, wtf is that? Who the fuck would screenshot for .001 btc? Thats retarded. Lol

Hah I found logs anyway but after I asked his/her employee number they have gone silent. Funny you can have such a hassle over such a small amount but it's the friggin fact they practically called me a liar for .012 BTC that has me getting really pissed off.

AFA being patient thats all we do here and then there is a mad scramble and repeat.


BTW, never heard of sensor before but listening to it right now. Not bad even though it's not my type of music I'm enjoying it.

This is more my speed.

Well, off to casino to lose some real money.

Actually people should be looking for good prices to buy more XMR right now.  Look at the charts, Monero isn't the type that trends most of the time.  It goes in a range for a long long time then breaks out.  If you're looking for a buy and hold coin.  This is it.

[danceforce]

Yes difinately one of these coins to HODL for a long period. It's a steady coin. I see a bright future for XMR.

[Febo]

After closing the alpha somewhere else takes this coin in the dark markets?

If I remember it right a month ago there were two small darkmarkets that were also  using  Monero. I dont know how is now and what are some dark markets plans.

Is monero a limited supply coin?

No, unlimited supply. Constant tokens emission over time, decreasing emission rate.

a picture is worth a thousand words & stuff:

Why is that a good  thing? Not saying it isn't.. I found that the bitcoin logic of limited supply really work well for it being a reserve coin. Why is it better that 'cash' (which monero is trying to be, right?) has a constant slow growth? Any special reason?

[Globb0]

So mining continues and the chain is secured

[dazbog835]

Ah, I see... And you think that without this mining wouldn't continue? You think that bitcoin won't last after the mining fees are gone and they need to survive purely on tx fees?

[Globb0]

I think that's the principle of the tail emission.

It allows for the dynamic block size and provides more incentive for mining (network security). Also, I don't think it will affect available supply since people lose access to coins by forgetting passwords, not making backups, they die without telling anyone their password, etc. I'm embarrassed to say it but I "laundered" a USB key through my washer and dryer and it destroyed everything on the USB, including Monero info. In the case of AlphaBay, an unknown amount of Monero is now gone forever, but I'm assuming it's a nontrivial amount.

Hmmm, haven't even considered this. Yes, that could be an issue. But still, that just makes the remaining coins that much more valuable, right?

Another question:
(I'm full of these today jeez...)
Basically I've been talking on the Verge thread and people over there say that what Verge has over Monero is it's IP privacy.
Would this be considered a fair statement?

Sure, that's true. But I think the tail emission will balance out the lost coins. How much of a balance, I don't know, and we can't know because Monero is truly private.

Verge uses I2P and Tor to hide the origination of the transmission. But its blockchain is open and transparent like Bitcoin's. For example, here's a Verge address: DGjVzyPaKMBiwzWoQyVsEAD2YLT5xoht9z. Or pick any Verge address. Go to a Verge blockchain explorer like https://prohashing.com/explorer/Verge/ and enter a Verge address and you'll see its balance (in this case, 73,328.33900000 / $240.534). That's not private.

So Verge is just like a Bitcoin transaction over TOR.

With Monero, nobody can know your balance. Try putting in a Monero address in a blockchain explorer and see for yourself. And here's a fun link: http://moneroblocks.info/richlist

So, Monero is much more private. And, you can make Monero transactions over TOR and I2P if you want to, or go to a public wifi spot to hide your real IP.  Plus, Monero will soon have baked-in I2P with its Kovri I2P router.

You can run Monero, or Bitcoin for that matter, over Tor. There is as such no privacy gain whatsoever to be achieved by using Verge. It is being aggressively and widely promoted by shills, very likely paid ones, but there is literally no substance all smoke and mirrors.

Take a look this recent twitter thread and, in particular, Riccardo Spagni's response:

https://twitter.com/jtgrassie/status/894672365157834752

Obscuring one's IP address is only one aspect of privacy. Verge does nothing to obscure blockchain analysis. Verge does nothing that running bitcoin through a tor client can't do. The Kovri project (a Monero project that uses the i2P protocol) will soon be built into the Monero client - later this year, perhaps? The issue of obscuring IP addresses will then be redundant.

I'd be wary of any currency that pumps itself as hard as verge does. How well do they know their cryptography? They seem to be everywhere these days - desperate to pump their price up from $0.03.

If you need more info about Monero you could do worse than ponder this for a few minutes:
