Quoting Vitalik Buterin from https://www.forbes.com/sites/rachelwolfson/2018/08/15/vitalik-buterin-on-the-state-of-ethereum-the-future-of-blockchain-and-google-trying-to-hire-him/ : "The Casper protocol is getting much closer to being finalized at this point. It’s just pending review on academic analysis"

For those who are not aware, Casper will introduce Proof of Stake instead of Proof of Work for ETH. So many GPU miners (especially on AMD chips) will naturally shift to XMR being the next most profitable coin to mine.

So my question is simple: what effect do you think will Casper have on the price of Monero?

Eth is proving time and a gain what a hyped POS coin it has always been and when the miners leave the price will just continue down the shitter as the Scam ICO's get shut down. So it should naturally turn people attention to solid projects such as this one.

I think this will become more and more common. Many Bitcoiner's seem to be pro-Monero in private, but shy away from public endorsement.

As it stands it seems intellectually dishonest to say that Bitcoin will be the end all for crypto. Glad to see Roger leading the way.

Yeah, there are too many koolaid drinkers that will Dog pile you if you even suggest Bitcoin is not the perfect piece of software that can never in the future of all mankind be improved upon.
