RE: RE: Can Hive Connect To Monero?

I think privacy is the ultimate "killer app" for crytpo. And I hate the concept of a killer app.

I know that it is not a direct link, but we know Khal plans to move into RUNE at some point (hopefully after I can get a bag -- working on it). If Thorchain does include Monero eventually (I think it is a modest chance they will unless they get cold feet), having a HIVE-RUNE pair of some type will not be the same as direct but the next best thing. One hop away so to speak.

Besides blocktrades (once again not direct) I believe Privex takes Monero for sales (not exchange I don't think).

Would be nice if some on Hive exchange would include it but I am not sure anyone wants the heat :-)

Probably many people with low level design skills could design an ASIC to mine it. Would need 7 figure or more to run a decent batch at a fab. Then you would have to sell them not to go broke when really the way to play it would be to keep the chips all for yourself and mine Monero :-)

I think that is why they say ASIC "resistant". It can be done, they just make it not worthwhile. Ha! But you probably knew all of that before I mansplained it :-)
