I missed the predicted dip - went down to 260 before bouncing back to 275

If you think the price will be $700 or higher, it is still a good entry point now.

In the meantime, I'm riding the current wave - managed to increase my XMR holdings a wee bit by selling at 295 and buying back ~260

I thought about doing that when BTC hit $9800 but I just couldn't get myself to trust USDT, with my luck it would implode the instant I converted to it. Cheesy

Monero will be bloomed this year i am sure about it base on my own observation it will go ride with bitcoin.

The Monero price is almost the same as the ZCash now. It might be more than ZEC in the next few months.

This shouldn't be a suprise. No one uses Zcash for privacy and the issuance rate is ridiculous--not to metion their team goes out of their way to alienate the prvacy community. From the moment they had a trust ceremony to Zooko's dumbass twitter comments this coin has been a trainwreck--Sapling is a step in the right direction, but without a complete reorg, the underlying problem (a complete disregard for what the privacy community wants from a privacy coin) will exist. Zsnarks were a great idea that fell into the wrong hands and became the plaything for a few spoiled academics who don't mind getting paid to waste everyone's time. Though the inability to audit the supply probably made it a terrible idea for a space the that coined the term "hodl"--though that and the trusted ceremony should have been the only concerns.

TLDR: If the Monero team had created Zcash, the only concern would be an unauditable supply and the trust ceremony. Instead we have: issuance rate, dev tax, backdoors, trust ceremony, corporate coin, optional privacy (which gives you fungibility and low anonymity set issues) and an unauditable supply.

Literally the only thing they did right was getting Peter Todd in on the ceremony and he distanced himself pretty quickly from that bit of hocus pocus (by focus?).
