Anyone have an analysis on the XMR drop (on polo) in the last few days? It's been climbing back up over the past month or so (in particular), but it's dropped a steady 25k under 300k sats and remained there for some time now. It was peaking at 300k-320k at points last week.

The tree's are shaking to see what falls out. Wink

BTW I have been trying to find a country where an exchange can be hosted that does not cow to fincen but have not as of yet found a list. I had thought The Isle of Mann was one but apparently not after reading this. Boring ass read, skip all the agreed upon terms.

Basically no such country exists, not any more. Singapore and Hong Kong were the last holdouts I knew of and they're towing the line now too.
Andorra, Monaco, wherever.

Basically? Or not at all? Thx for the input BTW.

Guys cmon... Let's be real with this hedge fund bullshit. We're going to do more harm than help if we were to pitch monero to a hedge fund right now. Unless that hedge fund manager is computer literative, he/she is going to have to store their stash on mymoner.com and let's be honest, that's not how you want to pitch an idea to a hedge fund. Pet focus on the now before we get ahead of ourselves here.

I agree this should be on the todo list after gui release. Is there anyone actively keeping one? I noticed when I asked who will be handling marketing there was nothing but silence. Is that because MEW has been dissolved and is a bit of a "touchy subject" now?

There is no one really "appointed" to handle the marketing currently. There is a trello board for Monero community contributions currently though:

https://trello.com/b/5R2ly4mV/monero-community-contributions

Alternatively, when we really want to market Monero we could create some kind of slack channel and invite the ones who are interested (and capable) to do so.

What ever happened to that XMRPromotions kid? He jumped in with both feet then disappeared. My concern is that all these great Ideas that shouldn't be followed up on until after GUI release will be lost in this monster thread if no-one is making note of them.

AFA testing the trezor firmware, If I had one I would. But I just don't hold enough to justify getting one. I doubt many XMR holders own one ATM because the support doesn't exist yet, kind of a catch 22.

With finex now offering eth from monday it seems that this would be a good time to pump monero up to new highs and widen the story to an alt-coin bubble..

why would news about eth and bitfinex affect monero?

Adds to the Volume On Polo.

People were mistakenly expecting me to get bearish and therefore selling because historically when I have been bearish it has been a good time to exit or shake a few coins out.

People know you are a guppy that cannot move markets.
