Rpietila, what makes you think that Monero is getting stronger every day? What am I missing?
Well I am in active IRL & chat contact with many of the devs. They have convinced me that things are going on well, yet they are careful not to give me information that is not publicly accessible because we have a mutual feeling that my "adoption" of this coin is not what is actually happening and therefore should not be marketed as such.
But it is true that I see the enormous potential, even to replace Bitcoin, as the team in Monero is stronger, and the tech corrects the most glaring flaw of Bitcoin.
- As a result of Bitcoin trying to have a rudder (foundation), it was left entirely without one.
- A short time ago, people generally thought using Bitcoin keeps their finances private. Well, that's pretty far from the case.
I am not here (yet) to make convincing arguments why everyone should buy. The day will come, when the coin is ready. Short list:
- Best team
- Fairest launch of all coins
- Very good emission schedule
- Killer attribute (anonymity with ring sig)
Quite easy really. The coin will deliver if it can be transacted anonymously. Nothing else needed. And it can. But it is too difficult now.
Hasn't AnonyMint proved that Monero is not truly anonymous, certainly not to a "killer attribute" level? I've seen him tear it apart in a thread on here, and stayed away for that reason.
