@Jure90 I agree, they should buy a lot more from the exchange. They bought lousy 27btc from exchange out of 200k usd which is big mistake from minters.
This would set an example for everyone to set the demand going and liquidity would improve drastically. Demand would also encourage the hodlers not to sell on first "god feeling" its going down, which is not and everybody will sell when they needed to. Sell pressure would dry up, demand will be going and will be much closer to next mint price as it is now.
Also keep in mind that at least 50% of current hodlers dont understand the economy behind the coin and once they do, the history of prices and mints will show them all xaurum team means real bussines.
I bet many more ppl would buy coin, if they could see the exit, since demand at reasonable prices is pretty weak and selling pressure is fcking enormous I guess it turns them away.
These are all valid points, however I believe in systemic solutions, it would of course be nice if mints a bought more from the exchange (in an attempt to kickstart a higher volume), but a lot better when they have to do it. This is the function of the production price, if the market price is not high enough they have to buy from the market, and how much depends on how low the market price is. Xaurum had more starting problems with volume, because it is designed to be a store of value, and as we have seen functions realtively well as such. From the beginning there was always a very high price, but low daily volumes, because of this we've made the split to 8000, this has worked significantly, but will work even better once trader userbase grows.
Because volume (both hidden and seen) is the lifeblood of a currency, the living capital, there really is no magic trick we could attempt to increase it over night, it is a day to day struggle, an incremented growth that could be accelerated by some larger events, but ultimately depends on the fate of the project as a whole.
