Nice to see Monero back in the top ten. Could have been there for awhile mind you and I havent noticed.
Are you invested in monero?
I am conflicted about Monero. I love the idea of a truly anonymous currency. But from an investment point of view, I think their tail emissions policy is flawed. I know it is only 0.6 XMR per block, but I feel that is enough to have a real impact on supply, meaning that Bitcoin is a far superior long term investment.
So I watch Monero closely but don't hold any. I had a fair stack that I sold for Bitcoin at the start of this year. If I start to feel that Bitcoin is under threat, I might go back to holding some Monero as a hedge. I held a stack of Monero through the Bcash debacle as a defensive hedge.
Far more importantly, if you have a few millions set aside and you cash them out to buy, say, a house, the taxman will show up with Questions.
Being below board is simply not worth it in the current culture.
