Just thought about the reward halving which indeed should give us some bonus, but than again i realized that the Founders Reward is expiring as well and soon or late financing the development will become harder and harder.
There is a good chance that the expiring founder reward will take away the bonus we might get from reward halving.
Meanwhile while BTC has it’s best 2019 price we continue to stall with right now 0.01196457 BTC (-5.06%)
kinda expected this… didn’t expect anything interesting to happen until next month. it’s good we’re cleansing the market.

We need something good…dont want to lose sight.
Yeah, it won’t be as big of a boost as some others due to the founders reward dropping off, but should still help us a bit. With the crazy new ASICs being built, competition should be high around that time as well, which should play out well for us.
I used to look at ZEC/BTC, but with the different emission schedules, I’m starting to think we will eventually have our own cycles. Thankfully, we are one of the truly distributed currencies, and with the programmability coming into play, I think ZEC will end up being adopted by businesses along with individuals (for the programmability, I think others will adopt the currency aspect).
Either way, I won’t lose the long term vision. I think ZEC will be positioned very well 10 years from now - short term volatility just offers some buying opportunities in my opinion.

So what about to the moon and defending 64? 0.0115 BTC-ZEC. New historical minimum. Still to the moon?

Remember that XMR issuance is going down all the time and tail emission is getting closer, whereas ZEC inflation is still sky high.
ZEC/BTC who knows. seems like we basically have large commercial miners that have figured out it’s easier to accumulate BTC via mining ZEC than mining BTC alone.
USD/ZEC (ATM / imo) is still looking good for the $100 range.

How to tell when things are getting out of hand -
- every computer you own runs a node
- power company asks you to turn stuff off
- forum logo has burnt into your cellphone screen
- people you know have names starting with ‘@’
…any more?

So… what about to the moon? If things develop like this, soon Kek will write here about defending 17 and how this is important for us 
Just kidding guys. I’m a believer just like you 
To the moon! Sieg ZEC! Sieg ZEC! Sieg ZEC!

Well, most coins are suffering right now - IMO it’s just too early to see things mooning. Consider it as a “good chance” to bulk up your portfolio.

after losing the $64 battle - a trip to the upper $50s level was pretty much inevitable. after initial shock; people are going to find tether was already priced in. real dump happens mid/end of may, imo. also good morning
i’m also leaning towards giving bitfinex the benefit of doubt on this one. anything coming from new york AG is most likely corrupt. they’re pretty much the worst people on earth.
Seems there will be no “real” pump before halving. Maybe in summer something…
Wait, which dump are you talking about? You promised us 120-300$ in may-june if I remember it correctly…

around may 13-15 is when any major announcements will be made. if zcash has anything to announce; expect a pump leading towards the summer slump.

I hope there really is something to announce, because now things look ugly without any trace of hope.
Downtrend for almost 2 years already.

been around 7 months since ZEC has announced anything that would excite markets. more than that if you exclude the coinbase non-announcement.
