Oddbean new post about login | logout Not me, already rich enough to retire since my 30s. Was an early bitcoiner in 2009 and continued mining afterwards in Monero until now. You keep spouting stuff like a federal agent would argue and try to ignore the obvious. Monero will continue increasing in price. Anyone stacking today will still see it growing 2x, 3x, 6x without effort. If you didn't understood bitcoin in 2009, you won't understand monero today. Keep larping, you sound more like a paid agitator that anything else.
Bagholder.
"Monero will continue increasing in price" tail emission inflation though? there is no cap to monero, but it will self regulate a price based on demand and supply for the FX. So it can "continue increasing in price" but that's just inflation, which is good.
You won't care about these things since you use casino coins mined in chinese farms, however, in private coins there is a focus to keep rewarding the network maintenance done by tens of thousand people at home with their personal laptops. It will take 50 years to increase 50% of the coins in circulation. 50 years. I'll repeat again: 50 years. Crypto isn't around since 25 years and you are FUD'ing about 50% circulation increase in about 50 years from today as if that is a good argument to adopt fedcoins instead of cryptocurrencies worthy of that name.
Not my friend, just hanging around the same BBS that time. Internet was smaller, got even smaller to those talking about shady tech. Authorities, criminals, crypto academics share the same tech circles. In 2009 there was nothing. No mining pools, no exchanges, nothing to use "bitcoin". Just solo mining and a lot of CPU burn, sure I've done it. Was a fun concept, but was far more profitable to write daytrade bots and skim stock exchanges in those days. Crypto coinage didn't appear overnight out of thin air at some public forum or mailing lists. We'd be testing and breaking whatever others would post there.
