The jerkoff above only has 3 posts. Don't feed the troll please.

What a great welcoming to the community because someone only has three posts. Makes one have confidence in a community.

Inflammatory drama queen statements from unknown entities are rarely well received...

I'm a jerkoff and a troll for elucidating legitimate concerns and questions about a cryptocurrency that claims to provide complete financial privacy?
Maybe you should try and refute my concerns instead of reverting to appeal to authority and ad hominem attacks.

Welcome back...

XMR will go to high value  Monero is an open-source cryptocurrency XMR tested the $300 resistance level .Monero is the 13th largest cryptocurrency by market cap .Monero’s market operates like that of many other cryptocurrencies. Monero’s facing Malware Controversy.

I don't really know if it matters in the grand scheme... but I could see Monero finally leading it's long time rival Dash in the near future.  It would renew my faith in the scales of justice.

Hey I try to look at it on the bright side. As long as its under x-coin dark coin dash I know my capital is in a good place with good growth potential.

Yet... still true at 2-3x dash valuation.

That's some sick Haiku right there.  Lmao! 

Anyway, I guess this rise is caused by the MoneroV (scam) fork?  Why is everybody so excited?  It's obviously gonna crash after the airdrop/fork/split or whatever.

[TheFuzzStone]

Why is everybody so excited?

I'm not. And I'm not gonna to share my private keys with some software except Monero Core.

It's obviously gonna crash after the airdrop/fork/split or whatever.

Ready!

What is under 0.035 is nothing to get excited.  That si Monero ATH from August 2017. So quite long ago. Maybe you are right and this fork might bring us new ATH.  History teaches us that Monero usually make x3 leg up.  That would bring us close to 0.1  and that is already something.

We can all agree and use some 10% gain I am really really sure https://www.coingecko.com/en/price_charts/monero/usd

There is almost no doubt that Monero's price will increase. Of course not investment advice. But I believe that XMR is a strong project. I think it was a project that could be invested much earlier.

I don't think that's a likely scenario.
The MoneroV fork will break Monero's single selling point, solid privacy.
If it can no longer offer that, its value vaporizes into thin air.

[yokosan]

I trust XMR. It is not possible to live a very big uneasiness. It's the main project of the market. The price came back to the appropriate level for purchase. The exact order to turn a crisis into a fright. (It is not an investment advice.)

I agree with you, my friend. I was thinking about buying it. I read the last comment. it really shows that this year's privacy projects will be important.

You know, it's funny how you think that this is just Monero's problem.  This is going to be a problem for any cryptocurrency.  Monero is by far the most private/fungible cryptocurrency so far with the most investment in research.  They are advancing the fundamentals of their code, with proficient people in academia who can look through the code at Monero Research Lab... so lets just say that Monero is representing cryptocurrencies in general (or better yet, what they should be doing... obfuscating the transfer and store of wealth in a fungible P2P manner.

If this is something that devs and MRL can't figure out how to handle (which I don't think will be the case); then this is a sad situation for everyone who believes in the value of cryptocurrencies in general.

Do you really believe of the millions of historic addresses they can get  enough to de secure the chain with a few airdrop users who flip over.

Unless its a totally viable coin and the majority flip over its irrelevant. If they do it maybe becomes monero. 

What will be, will be,

I'm holding where I think I need to be.

Thanks for your replies guys!

If you get how the zerocoin protocol works you will see how easy it is to have privacy. It's possible to keep all your coins untraceable on pivx, by keeping them on the zpiv form, however you can't stake this way.

And once they come from the zpiv accumlator, what can you say about the origin or destination of those pivx? nothing.

.

And this statement just proves that they are not Fungable and can never be.

/answering shill mode off

I feel like the goal of trying to cast the widest net for suckers users has many treating privacy as a feature, rather than a function. Until their goal is fungibility and creating the largest anonymity set, they will continue to stare at Monero's design in dumb awe. They neither understand that Monero's user base demands best in class privacy or how to attain best in class privacy--to them marketing and better-than-Bitcoin's-privacy are enough.

that's exactly my question, why is monero better than pivx from a privacy point of view?

And yes I think it's a very relevant topic for the monero speculation thread. If pivx tech is better...

Read the bolded as it applies to optional privacy--I said this before and can only repeat it so many times--if you don't understand, that's not my problem. Also, if you want technological analysis, I suggest you ask in the monero ann thread or on reddit or on irc--this is a Monero speculation thread, not a development thread. It's obvious that you are using it to shill pivx. It's off topic, annoying and obvious. Please ask technical questions on a technical thread.

Look I'll even link you a great place to find out all the reasons pivx is inferior: https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero

I am not shilling anything, it's not my fault if with pivx I can anonymized 5000 pivx in one go for 0.01 fee. I am asking myself how can monero be competitive when I can transfer pivx most of the time for free and faster... It just that as if I believe pivx is better sooner or later the value will move from monero to pivx.

I guess all are clinging to the vega induced hashrate increase... but if all cryptonight coins are as expansive (like etn) there is no chance for them to be able to compete with pivx.

The sooner monero (cryptonight) holders get it, the faster the prices may move...

It's about speculation right?

LUL

PivX has a rich list for fuck sake.

http://www.presstab.pw/phpexplorer/PIVX/richlist.php

My greatest fear is that the market and genpop never wake up to the intellectual reality that most coins are fucking nonsense.

Where Verge and PivX fans will vehemently argue they have greater privacy whilst simultaneously being a click away from a fucking list of the COMPLETE DISTRIBUTION of their coin, with ALL BALANCES on show.

fuck. me.

It's the staker list... the bigger the stake the faster the rewards from pos. but if those stake were anonymized before being deployed you can't know where they came from.

This complete distrubution is what makes the chain integrity verification possible. At all time you can know how many coins are in existence while not knowing their origins or destination when zpived.

Additionally, add-on or optional privacy can never be as private as protocol-level mandatory privacy (Monero).

Others have already pointed out the PIVX rich list.

unless the cost of privacy makes the all things unusable for new comers... that was my all point all along. Monero fees are too expansive.

Don't forget than pivx zerocoin protocol makes a pool of all pivx converted to zpiv... more and more are using it.
