Found a bit of additional info on Tari. In particular a bit more background on its usecase. Pretty good methinks:

The Tari team noted that there is no core team for Monero.

Really? Or maybe bitcoinmagazine.com just don't proof read? Are these paid articles there?

We will also achieve additional throughput by building a MimbleWimble chain.

How are they going to do this with merge mining yet also staying withing the earlier assurtion...

Spagni also pointed out that merged-mining with Moneros proof of work system doesnt incur additional electricity costs or environmental damage risks traditionally associated with proof of work, since miners arent burning more cycles.

If Monero implemented masternodes I would immediately sell all (3) of my coins.

I would rather be invested in Etherium.

Well... Almost.

Is that the reason why XMR price dropped in recent days? In my knowledge, almost of MN coins often drastically drop in the long-run.

There is of course the long running DASH/XMR market om Poloniex that can speak on this subject. https://poloniex.com/exchange#xmr_dash

Edit: I would not be surprised if see a crash of DASH on the above market in the future, because of bulletproofs.

This guys pulling a soft troll trying to get the unwashed to believe this MN bullshit. First they come in here saying Monero is going to add them and then claim the price falls because of that it's orchestrated Fud.

Do you really think there is a chance that bullet proofs aren't already priced in?

It's when they are actually running and people cannot point to transaction size and say "See" that it will be priced in.

It is possible but if 2015 and the LMDB was any indication I think not. Many may remember that before LMDB the entire Monero blockchain had to be stored in RAM. LMDB for Monero was available on the main chain during part of 2015 but not as an "official" release. It only became "official" on New Years eve 2015. The result was a spectacular bull run in XMR/XBT during 2016, where the price of XMR in terms of XBT rose by over 26 times.

Edit 1: Unlike LMDB during part of 2015, Bulletproofs are not available on the Monero main chain.
Edit 2: I consider the downside risk of being short Monero when bulletproofs go live to be very high.

Lets not forget we can attribute a lot of that to alphabay, but I agree with you
