If I am interpreting the book correctly, there should be two more jump cycles before our new friend is full, and the price will stabilize north of 400 (conservatively) in about a week.
Let's speculate about why MoonWhale is feasting like a duck prior to migration.
Perhaps they have insider info about upcoming listings on high volume exchanges. Perhaps those new exchanges will offer XMR/EUR, XMR/USD, and XMR/CNY. Perhaps Polo is going to offer an ETH/XMR pair?
Perhaps this moment of uncertainty about the imminent hard fork is MoonWhale's last chance to accumulate cheap XMR before the price is driven up by influx of fiat. Right now, only BTC (and Dash/ETH) market caps may easily leak into XMR's. But what happens when quadrillions of fiat fun-bux have a smoother path into XMR, as the friction caused by the BTC middleware layer is removed?
Fun fact: Although Polo is by far the largest Dash exchange, its volume is now so relatively low you have to scroll down to find it.
You also have to scroll down past the first page to find Dash on (volume sorted) CMC.
How nice to see that instamined scam coin languishing in obscurity while XMR shines at the top, second only to ETH!
