[XMR] Monero Speculation

[Hueristic]

Actually Risto was the reason i bought into Monero and i was quite happy to read his mathemathical theories and his calculations. I think his personal story is a bit shitty but his eyes on crypto is or was very informative for me and i think he was also part of the success of Monero. His "game" was intereseting (never bought into it or played it), that's why people went there, but everybody get's hacked sometimes 

Yep, just like this, people defending him even when it was obvious he was a manipulator just because he gave them good advice once. He was always Euro trash as far as I could see. I guess thats because I've seen quite a few of his ilk in my time, people that think they are better than others just because they got lucky. Its that mentality of the noble class faggots got born rich and feel they deserve more than everyone else.

For the payout it was not worth the stress, I was concerned I was going to see a spike and not get my Preciouses back!

I am not cut out for trading anymore and guess I have to just stick with holding.

It could have been worse. You could have been trading for some other coin and then you only had eth instead of xmr. But what a crazy deal just to go for that kind of sats:P

I have not sold anything,,, not holding so much and a bit sick that I did not manage to accumulate even more. I lost (literally) a huge sum of money some time back and was forced to borrow, so paying back all that instead of accumulating hurt me bad during the past periods.

Don't trade man.

Yeah, good advice. I bought a shitcoin 2 years ago to dump and got stuck with it and have not bought one since. The only thing I ever did with ETH is short it and if it wasn't for the huge maintenance I had setup I would have lost out on those shorts.

Risto didn't get me into xmr at first... it was AmericanPegasus who spear headed my interest. RIP... hopefully katie will come online again though if she gets re-interested and rejoin the convo.

I thought I saw a post about her back on reddit somewhere.

I never did understand why she left here.

I am not defending him, i am just saying, that i am into Monero because of him, the rest is done by myself

Me too if being totally honest.

Risto helped to solidify my decision to invest here.

And he wasn't wrong, a great coin.



All the other shit since then when he robbed loads of BTCTalk people of millions is why I cant pallet him now.


I was still a full fanboy until then.

Honestly I feel very lucky I found the Risto shit game too difficult to understand. Or I would also be one of the lost thousands stories.



How he has the gaul to reappear here I have no idea.

The robbing loser fuck must have no shame at all.

In itself a shame.

Hey think he read this and rage dumped?

Anyone know if he ever got that 100,000XMR back from Polo?

FreeBitcoins.com has launched an additional XMR platform that allows for users to easily buy or sell XMR without creating an account on our exchange.

FreeBitcoins.com/swap

For people who don't want to be involved with Javascript or whatever, our API for Swap can be found here:  https://freebitcoins.com/swap/api.html

Our deposits count correctly and the withdraws are near-instant.  We could use more liquidity on our books though, as the liquidity grows... everything else will follow.  We would rather work for liquidity than fake it!

I hope a few of you try it out and find it useful.  We also have an affiliate program that pays 50% of our fees for Swap and Xchange with just a single simple link!

Thank you!

If you want liquidity, you need to set lower fees for makers than for takers.  Exchange FAQ says all fees 0.2%

What would you suggest?

I'm kind of a taker myself.  It makes me feel bad when a maker is rewarded... takers drive profits (or losses) regardless of maker liquidity and isn't that the point of the game in Crypto?  Then you dump huge loads OTC!  

(It should be noted that "Swap" charges 1% on top of that .2% XChange charges.  Our prices do change as we continue to gain confidence in our product.  XChange for example started out at .5% and is now .2%.)

Everyone quick buy Monero with your shiny Bitcoins before the dip again.

Do I have to repeat myself?  To have liquidity you've got to have market makers; to have an order book at all, you need market makers.
You can't have too many market makers, and if you've got more takers than makers, the market's going to disappear altogether.
Seems to me the makers are a bit more important than the takers.
Makers are, most emphatically, not parasites or getting some kind of free ride.
In fact, market risk rides on market makers' shoulders.
Makerz gonna make;
Takerz gonna take.

[slaman29]

@BayArea I kinda agree with this. I have maybe only once or twice been maker and that's for some really shit coins I can't remember where there was almost nothing on the table close to average. I don't really understand why makers are rewarded more, if we don't take, nothing happens no matter what.

Like the pizza bitcoin guy. He's the hero for sure, but if no one accepted his offer, so what? They're the unsung heroes.

Today I am just starting to study daily trading, as well as how to correctly make a technical analysis. In addition, on all the resources that I visit, they respond very positively about Altcoin Monero , because this coin has very high volatility, which gives unlimited opportunities for earning using various trading strategies.  According to research data, Monero’s growth potential is still not exhausted, and therefore it is obvious that even with the use of the simplest trading strategies on Forex, you can earn very well and most importantly do not provoke frequent triggering of stop orders.  I now try to work only on trading simulators, but meanwhile, when choosing coins for real daily trading, Monero will be one of the first.

All crypto currencies are very volatile. Actually last two months all other asset is very volatile also.  But if you compare only crypto, Monero is one of most stable coins beside Bitcoin.

You know... it will be interesting to see if/when Tari gets through it's alpha/beta phases, if something like Risto's game will be able to go online in a more "decentralized" and "trustless" manner.  I tried playing that game initially when I got into xmr, but I just really never was into those sorts of games.  I'm sure someone like Smooth or any others old school players will take on that sort of project.

There are plenty asset platforms out there already. Problem is that games dont want to bother with additional things. Store blockhain asset in secure wallets. I guess for that new generation of gamers will have to grow. We will see.  If Risto would ever want to put any of his game asset on blockchain he could easily do it back then.

I agree that it's a very "meh" thing to think about if you are just talking about assets for games and what not.  What's exciting thinking for me when thinking about Tari is how it will allow true peer-to-peer sells of things such as music concert/sporting events/etc. tickets over the internet, as well as COA's for things like art, property, etc. 

I'm a big fan of all things live music for instance, and I hate the fact that ticketmaster has essentially monopolized the ticket trading/selling for people to do themselves.  They force bands to go through their system, and it's all digital scans rather than real ticket stubs any more.  Sure people can screen shot that code and "sell" it to someone else, but the buyer can't verify that it's legit until they get up to the person scanning tickets and have to hope they get in. 

I still don't know much about Tari and how it's similar/not similar to Eth and all other "smart asset" platforms, but if there can be something that is a "privacy focused" digital asset platform that uses "opt in" publicity for non-fungible tokens assets like a concert ticket would be, will be exciting to watch.

I sold some, waiting for the dip

Sorry, I didn't read what you would set the fees for makers at... I still didn't see that in your long-winded response either.

It's ok, don't worry about it!

I should have waited to buy back but I feel better having the coins then taking the chance I might not get them back again.

EDIT: POST 10K

Let's see if BTC rushes up to 10k and Monero can get a hold of that bull then i will have some candy when Monero dips under 0,0069, if
