Seriously, whynis Monero not $10k? It's just a better Bitcoin that has private transactions. It even has about the same number of tokens in circulation.

>> No.16994837

Monero could be a honeypot. If an entity controls a huge chunk of coins plus majority of mining (very possible for state agencies) they can spam the network with wash transactions, and detect the real transactions.
So the base premise of the coin won't work, if it's popular enough it will be compromised, if it is not already like TOR.

Literally every single crypto out there could be a honeypot. With this premise you can just pretend privacy is unattainable and be satisfied with a public ledger... Hint : it's not unattainable, and it matters.

Because who needs real privacy if most of them speculate or hold anyway? Also Monero and other privacy coins are in risky business, if AML laws will tighten their grip on exchanges they might delist those coins. In some countries it's already illegal to list them or trade them. And it won't get better, only worse.

monero is hard to use, It's not like bitcoin that you can create your own address using a pen and paper, then just use some random app to swap and spend it or you can hold for ever.

Look into remote nodes. You can use them from the official wallet without giving out any of your private keys.

Monero has two major problems:
1. its anonymity relies on coinjoin, which makes it susceptible to input spamming by an adversary + deanonymization due to knowledge of exchange withdrawals
2. monero can be deanonymized retroactively with quantum computers.
The second point seems irrelevant until it isn't. Imagine getting arrested in 2030 months after quantum computers become practical, because it turns out you bought drugs with monero in 2020 and the statute of limitations hasn't run out where you are.
Zk-snark based anonymity is not susceptible to this.

You can just buy with bitcoin since no one actually cares about your drug habit. If you're doing something serious you need actual privacy.

Currently fiat exchanges work as a kind of mixer that makes btc usable in terms of providing privacy from most people besides alphabets and exchanges themselves which is very similar to bank accounts today. In a bitcoin only world it would be a shitshow of 100% traceability for everyone. At that point it makes sense to just use xmr instead of switching in and out constantly.

>> No.16996320

>>16995653
Liquidity is king. In the event it's delisted from everywhere who's gonna buy it and where? Only the biggest privacy nerds and some thugs will trade it on a few, obscure scammy exchanges. Or maybe you'll go roleplay on dexes and let it hover just above the abyss like some nearly irrelevant shitcoins? That doesn't sound very bullish.

It can't. This is the perfectly hiding vs perfectly binding thing people often fud about. Monero goes with perfectly hiding.

As long as governments have the power to enforce that ban strictly then everybody is clearly still using fiat and bitcoin is an irrelevant ponzi. Also monero can be mined on regular computers.

>Seriously, whynis Monero not $10k?

Lack of liquidity same reason bsv is a shitcoin and why ltc failed to consolidate it's place.

When asics appeared they centralized newly mined coins by geographical reason and big centralized exchanges.

You need p2p exchanges like localbitcoins to have btc price.

RandomX seems to be changing the tide tough xmr transactions been increasing since it was added which means that small miners are mining all around the world , which will create global liquidity.

>It even has about the same number of tokens in circulation.

Yes but xmr achieved the same ammount of tokens in half the time, some coins have 0% inflation but the devs control most of the premined coins and when they dump it's like increasing inflation to 30%

XMR is pretty clever on this again they are fast rushing to bellow fiat and then stabilizing at 0.80% inflation.

XMR bullrun starts in may when xmr inflation goes bellow fiat(nearly exactly with bitcoin).

Yeah the global liquidity is good but centralized liquidity would definitely help with pumps. I guess with Monero you just have to be grateful the fundamentals are strong but not expect to ever get the artificial 200% in a day pumps like bsv and dash recently had. Steady march up from here with low inflation heading out of the bear market.

>> No.16996657

>>16996594
What goes up without achieving orbit goes down, all fake pumps are retarded the only coins that have them are centralized shitcoins or coins were the devs get rewards like dash(because that way they can sell at the peak).

BSV may have showed 400 in coinmarketcap but there was no liquidity for most people to sell.

XMR is doing it right , look what it achieved with higher inflation than btc and ltc.

https://coinmarketcap.com/historical/20171217/

Yes dash did well and so did zcash but so did bitconnect , during the peak bullrun the prices become erratic.

Dash ,zcash and bitconnect had in common the fact that they had people earning extraordinary gains due to dev fund , founder benefits and being a fucking scam the last one so the pumped it artificially at the peak.

XMR will be at the right place in the next bullrun and it will be the best place to "cash out" since it will have half the inflation than bitcoin(literally the same emission that btc will have in 2024 but in 2021 for xmr).

I seriously doub that fags will cash out in stablecoins , fucking tether won't survive a trillion dollar marketcap without the regulators cutting the balls of everyone involved.
