What does /biz/ think of Monero? I've been looking to diversify my cryptocurrency holdings and Monero is another coin I've been considering for a while. I've seen it mentioned a few times here, but not much has been said about it. Seems like a good price right now, too.
Is it a scam though? The dev team seems pretty down to earth, competent, and legit.

Na, its not a scam coin. Its a coin which is not just a clone of bitcoin. Its the most anonymous coin out there. Anonymity is built into monero protocol unlike other shitcoins like dash which uses coinjoin for anonymity.
bitcoin is a scam coin, tell me one way it's different from a ponzi-scheme...
what's the value of bit-coin to the consumer? you know as long as it's a small market it can be volatile, but can you imagine that countries would trade with bitcoin? or central banks would hold bitcoin reserves?

US dollars are a scamcoin. Tell me one way it's different from a ponzi scheme.

doent seem like a scam. its pow, with large tx sizes, fortunately theres no scaling issue as the block sizes are dynamic.
theres also not a finite amount, so block rewards will never be zero.

I'll take that as a begrudged acknowledgement of my point :^)

well desu not a lot of ponzis have the full backing of a military. let alone the us military.
that said, bitcoin would do well with a military paid by it

Good point. Maybe that could be implemented some day with smart contracts. Like
If (target_dead (target_name) && time_elapsed <= 24_HOURS)
Pay(address)
>>1337147
lol only if its not based on eth. otherwise,
if (_address.call.value(_amount)()) {payout(me over and over again)}
:p

Conservative propaganda, plus every thread is fucking dead, so might as well try to breath some life in with controversial shit.
