Hi iv been a silent supporter of xc and have been staking 761 xc coins since may. I bought in at around 168k, the price has dropped since and remained stagnant at around 135k for sometime now. Xc has arguably one of the best devs in the crypto world behind it so i expected some kind of growth. I'm not disgruntled as I have made other successful investments in coins with 2000% growth. So my question is this, have i made a good investment or should i abandon ship? Any feedback would be appreciated.

problem is xc is always chasing someone else's ideas.

darkcoin invented x11. xc named their coin x11coin (http://www.xc-official.com/) & changed later.

darkcoin had the idea of nodes. xc followed (but turned everyone into nodes)

ethereum started pushing "web 3.0" - xc started talking about it and saying they were going to push it

darkcoin just completely open sourced - xc is working on it.

xc is spinning a company off to raise more money which will dillute coinholding profitability if there ever is any. (but they are giving coinholders a piece of the action). also it doesn't look good when the lead dev pumps other shitcoins. so these are their two original ideas - a for profit company (dan was listed as XC "ceo" for awhile) and "reviewing" other competing coins.

FWIW I think darkcoin is a piece of shitjunk scam (I am currently a little invested in monero and boolberries cuz i like ring sigs but if you look at my post history u can see i was pretty hard on both of them b4 deciding).

anwhoo thats my take on why its going nowhere. nobody ever listens to me. Roll Eyes

Thanks for your feedback, i always thought xc was an innovator in crypto and others followed but i didnt know about the points you've raised. My other investments are ethereum and fibre. I'm not going to bang on about other coins because this is not the place for it but from what i can see Fibre has done in 7 weeks what it's taken this long for XC to do. I was going to hold until rev 3 but now I'm having second thoughts

I wish this was true, but I'm afraid I will have to disagree. XC is a far more mature product with full end to end anonymity. The XC mixer is what I consider to be the best in the business. I do hope that one day we are in competition with XC, but right now from a technical perspective XC is superior.

We have not hidden the fact that we would like to implement XC's mixer technology and have reached out to Dan.

I don't usually post in other currency's threads, but felt I had to for this one.

Regards
Killa

Thanks Killa, your post is most welcome.
