I had to like your post for its delightful proclamation on the lack of twit.
Picked up some Grin with USDT @ $3.00 last night
2050? that seem long to even me
Most people have a memory and time scale of about 5 minutes, mine is at an upper end when I consider an entire year; 30 years is out of the question.
The long view is one of grin’s most cypherpunk characteristics. even if it putters about for decades it has lindy effect written all over it.
Yeah we used to talk on the phone for hours, now the council doesn’t even text me to see how my day is going. On dinner dates, we just sit in silence and eat our food while the young couples around us laugh and talk. Maybe we’ve grown apart.
What’s the next price (USD or BTC) you’re looking to buy more Grin?
For me, under $3 or 0.0003 BTC seems like a good top range for now
IMO the basic thrust of your point was fair comment, if a little off topic. GRIN does put a smile on the face for several reasons and it is evident that some smart creative well-intentioned personae have been committing their energies on it to date through the core team/technocratic council but communications could definitely be improved around some aspects IMO. I don’t believe it is due to arrogance, indifference, or [insert objectionable quality here] – probably moreso because it being an open source, not-for-profit voluntarily funded initiative, human and financial resources are probably stretched. It could probably benefit from someone close to the developers/core team formulating more communications aimed towards less technical enthusiasts. After all, GRIN will require a wide base of adopters if it is to be successful in the long run!
I’d tell you, but I’m afraid the whale stalker that’s toying with me might gain some foresight from my comment, and implement that foresight into the twisted saw-like game they’re playing.

Do you have all the trade by trade data? Should calculate the VWAP.
No, I only have the daily high \ low\open \close values which the above chart was based on. You can extract this for free from Poloniex.com but AFAIK you need to pay to get trade-by-trade data and it ain’t cheap - like $1500+. They also allow you to query their markets data using an API but limit the frequency with which you can make requests so I don’t think you could collect a complete set yourself this way (for free).
I can read deleted posts spookys
Will you be my friend? Basically free Grin.
Why don’t we put Grin to good use, if we really want to make sure there is a transaction every minute, there should be a way to use Grin coin on a Point of Sale system at businesses. Also convert other cryptos to Grin & then be able to use Grin for sales. If we can do this quietly with out other projects finding out, and offer this to businesses show them the benefits, how it wont interfere with regular sales, how volatility of price wont affect sales neither because of constantly updating exchange rates. If what you want at a store is $12.50 all you have to do is send $12.50 plus fees in Grin to the PoS/Store Wallet. On the credit card terminal, a wallet reader could be attached. A mobile wallet should also be made too to make transactions easier. This could really make for sound & useable money which we’re going for right guys?
Transaction every minute makes me think… hedge funds are certainly measuring transaction rates for coins, and these could be easily manipulated by sending money to yourself, for the low low price of the tx fee. Any bump in the price of Grin could certainly more than cover the cost of your tx fees… new style of pump & dump?
Why use a new one when the old style is as effective as it could be?
I don’t think it is buddy. I think we need grin to tank more so that some institutions and people can load up on Grin. Maybe delay any listing for 6 months and get it under a dollar. This way we can eat up more and more.
Man, one thing for certain, bitcoin will always be king. There is manipulation there but dang, not on the scale of most alt coins. It is and always will be the most decentralized coin in existence
