Probably best to move coins on Monero chain first before attempting to spend MoneroV. Looks like MoneroV is going to be tradeable at HitBTC ... not exactly an exchange that is on the trusted list ... https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/wiki/avoid

One thought I did have is that level of covert privacy revealing can become quite extensive when one considers that chains may exist that exist entirely on a lan.

Consider the vast majority of systems running backdoored Intel hardware, non airgapped cpu's and of course non Foss os's that could just be another brick in the dragnet.

Consider that someone may already have your private keys, but never want a single dollar from you in regards to stealing your moneros.

I think this was always advertised as not tla-secure though, but definitely Enterprise level anonymity..

Just speculation..

XMR.to  etc.

I believe in this coin. A few months ago I invested a large amount of money in Monero and I am ready to wait several years to get the maximum profit. This is an excellent project.

Correlation is not causation. If that were the case, I could also say coins like RDD (also seems to be green when Monero is lately) is pulling up Bitcoin even more. I'm a Monero holder here (not even thinking to claim any of those 5 fork coins either by the way) and I'm quite happy to see it pulling away from being dictated by Bitcoin in terms of price, but not to the point where it's dictating Bitcoin!

Happy birthday to Us?

You know...  I have been assuming this could be, like the last runup, related to the fork.  But I do not think that is the situation this time.  In fact our runup seems a little milder than the general alt landscape.

Interesting times to say the least.

Wonder what a crypto bull market looks like the *first* time everyone is aware of crypto.

Still not sure we are there yet...  but it's safe to say we are at least seeing a forming nice bulltrap.

On the other hand it makes me sad to see so many absolute shitcoins rallying yet again...  it's the curse that won't go away.

So so there with you guys (well guy and gal I think?).

But even if Monero's value remained somewhat shrouded due to whatever reasons, I would at LEAST like to see BCASH and Ripple die in a fire the way they are supposed to.

I mean allusions to the dotcom runup are constant.  And to that extent Ripple is like a damn e-greeting card startup and BCASH is just a bad idea that everyone believes in.  And yet...  boom.

But right now the tide is lifting all the boats...  I'll just keep watching.

Meanwhile in BTC:


Again, *IF* the bull run happens to ignite from here... It's going to be really interesting to see what happens when FOMO actually hits the masses.  December was but an appetizer in my opinion.  That was the event that made the world really wake up to bitcoin.  They all got their coinbase accounts, bought at the top and have been licking their wounds.

But this time... ... ... ??

And Monero?  As far as the public is concerned it is truly one of the "Crypto Blue Chips".  Yes, ripple and bcash are in that bag too... but the differences and advantages we can see so clearly are really differences and advantages.  Eventually their self evidence will sink in.

That GUI FFS up there?  Let's fund it.  And bulletproofs will help too.  The faster and easier Monero is to use the better.  Those are still it's biggest hurdles.  Getting smaller by the day.
