Sorry what?

Agreed entirely. BitcoinTalk requires a dedicated Monero Subsection within the alternate currencies board. That is perhaps the most elegant solution towards some of the recent anti-xmr 'fake shill' FUD attacks and accusations of spam resulting from said attacks-- largely this spam is not perpuated by Monero supporters but as a scummy tactic by certain sockpuppet accounts to weaken Moneros image. It shows we are gaining ground and with that we will inevitably make enemies. How do you like them apples, scamshits?

This anti-XMR spam attacks likely originates from the same coin-mill group as the bytecoin scammers, who are taking the scorched earth approach after seeing XMR rise to the top 10 while their premined to hell scamcoin languishes .

or  perhaps from supporters of competing pump/n dump centralised anonymity provider solutions such as BTCD, NXT, BTCD, XBC etcetara who have a lot to lose as XMR advances up the ranks in both visibility, market cap and adoption

Such a solution promotes visibility to those that wish to look specifically for XMR related postings and perhaps don't want to deal with pump/dumps, Shitcoins etc, (Of which there are a number of hero/legendary members who elect to follow the progress of XMR exclusivelly that fit into such a category), it also reduces clutter for those other members who do not wish to participate or view Monoro postings. Kills two birds with one stone so to speak.

No casual Attacker could exploit Monero. We have already seen Monero's developers neatly push a fix to the likely nation state sponsored attempt at corrupting the chain.

This clearly came from sophisticated party with intimate knowledge of the monero internals, not a script kiddie attacker.  These trolls Can try and incite attacks towards XMR from Candiates who have previously tried to Damage shitcoins like auroracoin, infinitecoin etcetera but the fact is we are Dealing with a completely different beast here not a simple bitcoin copy - this is a project which has been Developed by crytographers and audited by the likes of gmaxwell and peter Todd. Lame attempts at 51% attacks or "Timewarps" will be futile here so  it is a waste of time for anyone to try and lure and attack in.

As long as we choose to support OSS privacy enhancing technology such as Monero and elect to choose GNU/Linux as our primary Desktop operating systems, escaping the Opressive Handcuffs of Microsoft Windows Vista, Apple iOS DRM infested and spyware/malware Ridden bugged OS we will make for extremely hard group to target. It really is a simple case of throwing out our Windows/ Apple Locked down proprietary, corporate controlled and easily attackable via Malware desktops, and replacing with a Free Libre Open Source Operating Software system such as  GNU/Linux 64bit or 32bit PAE kernel in conjuction with the Monero Daemon to enable financial freedom and complete privacy for all.

 

False.

This was the ONLY occasion some users had a slight advantage,

https://github.com/NoodleDoodleNoodleDoodleNoodleDoodleNoo/bitmonero/commit/3cc45e9324a402aee91e2f46861b2ca393d711aa

the Monero developers quickly secured the code (as you can see above) to put everyone on the same level without optimized platform only within a month or so after launch (yes the monero core member NoodleDoodle mined a little with his optimized miner) but release the patch afterwards and sold them all already cheaply before the price was as expensive as it is today, so he hardly made a profit and everything is distributed. Kudos to them otherwise we would be stuck with crippled scamcoin bytecoins slow hash code


The big miners, who spent around quarter of a million $ on EC2 only ever had a maximum of 10x advantage  or so after that was fixed over normal miners,  not 100x as falsely told by some.

Based on What?  False Rumors of an Attack... Please  
We are Not all weak hands Here you can manipulate with talk like this to Buy in Cheap. pfft..




HAHAHA not exploitable by you fur sure,  we know you are a mouthpiece, in cohorts with lolcust.  someone else does the dirty work and sends to you to announce  

 your limitation is Gravity well, timewarp and bots, neither of which are useful here lol because there is no KGW or 51% attack possible. Good luck because monero Whitepaper has already been Extensively reviewed by Mathematicians and audited by respected bitcoin devs gmaxwell and peter todd gmaxwell only has good things to say (check hacker news) and peter todd Is are now working with the moner o team. Quite unlike your usual shitcoin clone you try to attack only after first being notified of the weakness by the real worker (not you) and taking dry run in testnet. The attack that already recently happened was more complex and elegant than you could dream of, and it surely came from someone at least familiar with the Monero workings, which you barely seem to understand at this moment (it's nothing like bitcoin code)

 You will probably try to embed these http://nlnetlabs.nl/downloads/antivirus/antivirus/virussignatures.strings

into Monero Payment ID'S and claim you 'HACKED' MONERO because MSE is quarantining.
Until members just flag it as a False Positive and everything continues as normal.

Looks like you will have to start studying HARD then make an announcement that 'you've accepted peace' and made decision not do do anything or just slinking off into the Distance when you realise there is no normal exploit vector like with a normal calibre Shitcoin because this is Entirely new codebase actually implemented by cryptographers. And clearly not a lone coder but a team of smart individuals. The Monero team Has already fixed many major bugs in the past few months so no low Hanging fruit for you lolz.

I already know what Will happen. Everything continues as usual, If someone brings up "where is the attack BCX??' you will Say 'I never said i would specifically' So choose your words carefully so you Don't get Egg on your face, smart  

Simple answer. No..

+1 You Monero Haters are making the loudest noise out of all, including the biggest supporters.
If you really hated it you wouldn't talk about it and make your own monero threads giving the coin publicity
Have You ever head "All publicity is Good publicity"
So looks like someone is just trying to FUD and buy in cheap

I made this thread because I was tired of seeing this.

Please do not criticize me for my choice In using a Brand new account. I have been here since early 2013 But I do not want my investment choices To come into relation in this thread. This one is about XMR only. I was accused before of being a 'darkcoin shill' because I had brought darkcoin before. I will buy ALL altcoins that I beelive in that Have promise, So that's a crazy to brand me as that way. So this thread is only about UNMODERATED XMR disucssion towards trading and Speculation and Economy/ predictions/Latest news and Developments.


Here anybody may discuss XMR trading advice, speculation and economy.  I will not Censor.   Any opinions are welcome.



Buddy, you should not bet your life on 1 billion dollars, because you will be a dead man if you are under 60 without a heart condittion. RPIETALA says the coin will get to over 30 billion dollars market cap.  ( I would expect within the next 10 years).   Many have also said Bitcoin will rise to 10,000, 100,000 or 100,000,000 per coin based on S-curves. If bitcoin price increases like this, Moneros will and if it doesn't XMR can be seen as a hedge for when bitcoin becomes not pseudonymous enough with too much regulation.  XMR will be Untainted and pure without the ability for agencies to monitor the chain.  So owning just 0.1% of XMR today can potentially grant you 30 million USD, owning 0.01% will be 3 million USD.  Essentially you need to get rid of the short Term trading mentality.  This is not wall street and trying to day trade will lose you money unless you are a skilled trader But this has a Good promise to hold long term (5-10 years) I think all of us will be happy making offline Monero determenstic keys, and HODLING patiently then coming back at that time to see the price increase.

 It's Into the beginning stages, but It has a chance to skyrocket and Bitcoin in the right conditions and many hero members agree.  Many People are Losing confidence in Bitcoin with recent BitLicense conditions and It's quite well Known many '3 letter Agencies' Can Monitor the Bitcoin Blockchain to Trace Payments even if you Tried to use a tumbler or Mixer.  They Already Caught a lot of people who assumed they Are anonymous. With XMR we are Really anonymous due to the Ring signature technology which has Been vetted in the Monero Whitepaper by A respected Mathemetician and Gmaxwell (Famous bitcoin coder)

 Essentially this project has the most hero members/legendary and whales out of any crypto and a fair launch (the numbers were posted upstream in official XMR observer thead along with charts). It is a perfect storm.  Those hero members and whales didn't become like that overnight, they have seen many changes over the past years and accumulated a lot of bitcoins not by making rash decisions investing in pumps so we are in good company even as a newbie investors taking a gradual position in XMR, and undertaking your own research.  It is a good hedge for XBT overall with real anonymity technology unlike all the others which are only marketing/pump n dump FUDs and a solid add to your crypto portfolio.  It has proven not to be connected to the other scam coins by bytecoin coin mill and the developer team have already thwarted major attack skillfully and implemented world first feature like determenistic passwords. There is a group of developers (7 people) who are full time commited to Monero, it is not a lone developer so I do not see any development abandonding possible.


By the way, Monero is already getting HUGE amount of Positive attention in the crypto Investors/ well known traders Circles



This News is already circulating and Causing a buzz:

Search trend terms for Hashtag XMR are consistently up, the reddit accounts are constanlty Increasing in number and the Price is remaining perfectly Stable. A stable price usually means That a huge increase is just around the corner, but even if it isn't just ready to rise up massively just yet the stable price gives Us a chance to accumulate steadily. The Whales like to regulate and keep it just steady and stable until they have finished buying usually in traditional markets. Nobody has woken Up buying XMR to find they are at a 200% + loss because it is just minor steady fluctuations in price of only a couple percent. The most stable altcoin Ever It seems (unless anybody can share some data that proves otherwise)
