How many Monero do you have now? What are you going to do with them?

Monero hit 16 but it's down to 15 again today. That means my 48 Monero they're sitting pretty at almost $750 worth.

I'm going to keep accumulating and hope to go FS shopping from members here with them. Maybe when I get to 100 I'll start playing on the exchanges.

I know STH XMR started in earnest about 2 months ago. So what's everyone got now for a stash and what are you going to do with 'em?

I started the day after Patrick put the monero post on front page, but it took me a while to ramp up on all my useful systems.

I have about 35 XRM I believe.

Thanks Patrick!

35XRM is pretty good.

I started on Jan 23 ( 12hours mining per day ) to Feb-16 , mined 6.3 XMR.
Started Feb 18 to Mar 5 , started 24 hours solo mining. mined 1 block 8.6 XMR.
I did want to run up a $400 ( higher tier usage cost ) electric bill, stop mining on March 5.
Restarted mining on March 14 with mineXMR.com - Monero mining pool, mined 3.2 XMR.

FYI, I am having trouble to withdraw the 6.3 XMR from MinerGate.
After 12 hours, I filed a support ticket, they assure me that the transaction had bee sent, but wait another 24hrs due to delay.
Although, minexmr.com had no such delay.

I have 18 XMR , that would pay for last 2 months electric bill.

There is a big delay. I pushed ~18 XMR from MyMonero Wallet to Poloniex today. It took well over 5 hours to get there and the scarier part was that it did not even show up in the Poloniex transaction history as confirming even up until 10 minutes before the balance was in my account.

I think I am over 180 XMR, but the current hash rate currently has me at ~2-2.5XMR/ day.

the number of pending transactions reach an all time high today. Some places like minergate dont let you adjust the payment fee for faster processing, but if you send a manual transfer you can specify a slightly premium rewards and be in the next block or 2

Mid april should see transaction fees go down and block size go up for more transaction capacity.

Thanks, nice to know that I am not alone having slow issue with XMR transfer.
Good thing, I didn't freak out, just went to bed last night.

Polo has XMR over 27 right now.

Is anyone doing arbitrage?

Same here. I have 10 x 2670 cores not doing much day on day - would it be profitable to put them to some use and if so part of a pool or solo?
