 how come ppl losing their xmr almost everyday at your official online wallet there Huh

and what the fuzz about monerov Huh  is it good coin Huh  


i thinking about buying alot of it if they provide good solution toward monero's shortfall... u know Monero Enterprise alliance and stuff...  it sound like a centralization.

They claim that their coins were stolen. The same way I could claim they are lying about this to FUD monero. They can't prove I am wrong and I can't prove they are wrong.

I haven't heard from any credible member who got his coins stolen from mymonero. Most often rather new accounts are claiming their monero got stolen.

I have been very lax on security measures with a few mymonero wallets just to see if someone is gonna steal them. Nothing got stolen in the past 2 years.

The main takeaway is, don't trust webwallets with any coin. It is not like people ever stated that webwallets are secure.  It is just reckless behaviour on the side of the user to use them anyway . There are more secure alternatives available.

Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

Ledger Nano S has dropped to £89 and seems in stock at amazon.

I wonder if a new version is coming?


Is that a drop?  I think I paid 59 euro in December.  Maybe it was 69?  I know it went up thereafter.
they had a sale end of last year.

I paid 70 euro plus shipping late December, I think the sale had already ended by then but not sure.
Bought from ledgerwallet also.

Hey guys

As this is a speculation group I have a simple question: Do you guys believe XMR will be 0.1 BTC someday ? like Bcash

Of course it would. But there's no time frame I can give about it.
With the rise of different coins, only a few min-able coins would sustain and monero being the king of anonymous coins, would continue to prosper under any circumstance.



.
.BIG WINNER!.
[15.00000000 BTC]

Now 79 euro from Ledger.  About 70 GBP? incl free shipping, looks like a preorder though.

It was about 120, now I read your 2 comments and put them together.

Probably the stock shortage was allowing it to be driven up by amazon sellers

I'm sure there are a few Fudders but due to the shear volume of accounts hacked I doubt it is all bullshit/phishing or poor SECOP. I believe I know what it is but I've warned of it for years and no-one has taken me serious so whatever I could care at this point. Using any Webwallet for any amount your not prepared to lose is dumb, there have been credible members that have lost coins years ago and warned the community so if people don't listen then thats their problem. Also I see a concerted effort to keep these reports shuffled away and ignored. I have never seen an official release of proof of any investigation and/or resolution to even one theft. I think Birr has been waiting for 2 years for an explanation other than we don't keep logs.

How come a legendary member who spent countless days on this forum doesn't know that even the most popular BTC web wallet (bockchain.info) had some horror stories on lost funds?

How come a legendary member asking stupid questions about 2 pages long Monero-V thread mostly filled by idiot posts without figuring out for himself what's behind that scam?

How come a legendary member like you doesn't know that Monero Enterprise Alliance is just a comedy stunt by our lead comedian?

I expected more than just cheap insinuations, please get your shit together and be a good dashole, we need real quality FUD to take off, not this crap you're serving us now, give us some real FUD or GTFO  Cool

BTC should see strong resistance at 10kUSD, which seems like a good time for XMRBTC to rise, since XMRUSD has no correlated psychological line.

The dev team has hired security researchers to and are also themselves looking into the claims about mymonero.com. It could just be fud but they received enough complaints to look into it more deeply. For now though I would just avoid it to be safe. The hardware wallet will be here soon and it is supposed to only be $30 dollars. Using that and connecting to a remote node will be the way to go in the near future if you do not wish to run a full node.

Unless MoneroV implements this suggestion by one of our devs

Forkers, if you're forking Monero, DO NOT ask users to reuse their Monero keys, but have them create new keys for your fork.
Than they will have to be considered either attackers or grossly incompetent. Also their roadmap paper is riddled with inaccuracies and faulty logic. And considering that they are minting themselves 10% of the currency supply in this fork as some sort of purported "solution" to some sort of "problem" in monero, I think it's not very hard to guess at their true motivations. Whatever the case I wouldn't bother with them myself.

What if a few trusted members of the community went fishing? We could all put small amounts of monero on the web wallet and see if we could get anyone reliable to confirm the thefts. Any other legendaries who are long time veterans of this thread interested?

Seems like Soros is speculating on crypto now.
Watch out when he does his famous "shorting the bank of ..." activities.

https://www.cnbc.com/2018/02/15/george-soros-fund-buys-stock-of-cryptocurrency-play-overstock-com.html

Good!

He was right to dump FB. It's toxic.

Privacy wise too, their 'Facebook Protec' feature is a vile violation of privacy.

As soon as https://www.forbes.com/sites/quora/2018/02/14/what-is-general-data-protection-regulation/ is in place I'm going to execute a delete on my FB profile.

I did that more than a decade ago, and it took 2 years and threats of legal action to make it actually go away...

North America - unaffected.  They probably still have it stored away, but at least it doesn't come up on public searches.
