/XMR/ Monero General

Welcome to XMR General, dedicated to discussion of the world's leading privacy-coin!
Because Monero is secure, low-fee, and borderless, people can easily send money despite corrupt and broken governments or banks. This provides economic empowerment of individuals in oppressive countries or depressed economies.
Private financial history protects consumers and companies from price manipulation, supply chain exploitation, economic discrimination, or the like. Monero is the only cryptocurrency that has the features to serve as completely fungible, decentralized, electronic cash.
If you're new, feel free to ask any questions you like and a Monero Chad will be with you shortly.

Will this ever reach $10,000
Am a poorfag with not much

Dollars need not matter user.
The global reset along with hyperinflation and the impending stock market crash are going to turn your dollars into worthless Monopoly money.
Whilst I believe in XMR and have 90% of my portfolio hedged in Monero I hold 10% XRP just incase.

In the long term, we do expect Monero to rise. We don't like putting dollar amounts on it though because we discourage moonboy culture. I'd recommend doing some research/lurking these generals and if you want to start DCA'ing then you should.
Monero is not a scam. It's actually used. So Monero will be used 10 years from now if you think Cryptocurrency will exist 10 years from now AND if you think privacy will be in demand. That's at least what we believe.
I think this show is going to go on longer than you would like to think. But getting into crypto now is clearly the smart move.

Still keep your eyes out for defi tokens that support privacy. A crypto that supports privacy AND has a use case besides exchange can always disrupt

who draws the pics lol

The based department

defi is a meme

Hello fellow friend.

so is ur btc coin carbon copy

LOKI solves the XMR overpriced problem. Sorry anons, but you're getting delisted, permanently in 2021.

Then why is Monero gaining on the dark net where Bitcoin used to be king if it is a "carbon copy"?
Defi is all scams/ponzis with massive attack vecctors. It is pure speculation and it isn't actually bought and used. Monero is actually being used right now and every day for niche privacy use cases that will never go away.
Based

>LOKI solves the XMR overpriced problem
now these pajeets are literally making up problems because they've run out of ways to FUD Monero.
Kill yourself scammer.

monero is so good by buddy cant even hold a stack. he keeps spending it lmao. he hates the publicity of btc. not sure if based or unbased.

Are the kikes suppressing it, or what is that?
Fucking hell

Kind of.
Monero should be on more on ramps. This definitely has an impact on the price. But regulation for crypto is still up in the air and that scares exchanges. That being said, Monero will eventually get on more on ramps, as it is the only way to loosely track who is buying Monero. For now, it benefits the smart money who is accumulating.
It's definitely based, because people buy Monero to use it. Of course, you can also buy and hold. But it's good that we have a crypto currency that isn't just about buying and holding like a pyramid scheme.

are these updated charts?

yup exactly. defi is just people who are already involved in crypto trading the same pool of money around

update on my small mining gains
I mine ETH and XMR, cash out in XMR and hold
so comfy

Yes
I believe this discrepancy happened lately because a lot of money migrated from USD to BTC last year, when BTC went from 3k to 14k. But this difference will eventually come closer to zero once big investors understand they also need privacy.

ZCASH BEST

I have my highest exposure to XMR now over any other time I've held crypto and definitely feel the most comfy and still feel super early

Xmr bros how secure is the network? What are some good metrics when comparing the security to something like btc?

Monero is a honeypot, use 0xMR

what do you mean by secure? Proof of Work is tried and true, and the anti-asic resitance of Monero means anybody with a cpu can realistically mine at the cost of electricity. This prevents centralization of miners. Additionally, because Monero's ledgers are opaque, miners can never collude and censor transactions like they can with Bitcoin.

Assuming an efficient commodity mining market, the security interns of proof of work is the value of the block reward per unit time. Excluding fees, for Bitcoin that's currently 900 btc/day * $13,733 = $12,359,700 worth of PoW/day. For Monero it's ~960 xmr/day * $118 = $113,280 worth.

That doesn't account for factors like how centralised mining is (btc more centralised so higher risk of collusion) or lead time/up front investment to start mining (xmr lower less upfront investment since you can rent CPUs or offset CPU purchase costs by selling them later so miners could be less committed to the longevity of the network)

There's also a million other ways to think about security but those are obvious and quantifiable ones.

anyone else bet on the election? I'm hoping to win big and stash profits into xmr.

>are the kikes suppressing it
on the contrary, they are accumulating because they know it's a threat. you see, (((THEY))) don't just try to destroy threats. they seek to infiltrate and control them. it's my primary concern with monero moving forward. thankfully, the community is true to its values.
