The EU is demonizing essential privacy tools like VPNs, Signal, TOR, & encrypted email services like Tutanota & ProtonMail. They also plan to monitor cryptocurrency use, so public chain users should be aware!
Chainalysis will kill public chains by turning this industry into a surveillance grid & censoring txs. Simultaneously
#Monero
is destroying the entire blockchain analytics industry with non negotiable, default privacy. Ongoing innovation is critical.
Rest assured at some point the DOJ will go after
#Monero
folks too.
#Bitcoiners
were just "low hanging fruit" ! This witch-hunt will last for a while. When
#privacy
is a crime, we are all criminals!

We are no longer just criminals. We are extremists now! Terrorists. Start growing your beard if you haven't already π
Pull request submitted to increase

βs π ring size to 16! π₯³π Not to toot our trumpet but XMR will be 'The Last of the Mohicans'. Everything else will be banned, sanctioned, blacklisted & regulated out of existence. But you can't force "Off-Gridders" back on the Grid
The VPN industry is like a cartel. Networks are consistently being exposed for intentionally storing & collecting user data.

It's been a few long years for
#Monero
. Yet I can't help but celebrate all the major & minor victories (RandomX, p2pools,atomic swaps, HavenoDEX) All the open source devs & contributors. All the hard work, often done for free. Bullish on privacy & freedom. Canβt Tell Me Nothinβπ
It took Hal Finney 11 days. Others may take 111. But eventually everyone comes to the same conclusion. All roads lead to
#Monero
. You can't have a financial system without privacy and fungibility
How can
#bitcoin
become money if it's too valuable to spend? The short answer : It can't. Banks know that. Govs know that.
#Monero
is the only cryptoCURRENCY used for commerce. Untraceable Commerce means true freedom to OPT OUT. Trade happens 24/7. 365. It is unstoppable
Our darling privacy coin is listed by Goldman Sachs as a top coin!

If Monero will be banned that is because it's REAL competition.
πMost money-laundering is done by banks.
πFinancial privacy is your human right.
πTransactions capture personal data. Cash &
#Monero
does not.
πDemand for privacy coins will soar
FBI >> We are NOT trying to get encryption backdoors, we are trying to get LEGAL ACCESS TO INFORMATION....FROM THE BACK...THROUGH A DOOR ... get your facts right!
#Monero
is one of the few universally respected projects in the space. While $XMR has its own network effect, the community is NOT afraid to innovate & pioneer new, vetted technologies ( think RingCT, RandomX ) ! This is important. Tech without innovation can not stay relevant
Currently there are 13,328 $XMR ($3.4m) locked in SecretNetwork, a 45% increase in a little over 3 weeks and

The
#Monero
delisting is not good news for adoption. Most normies already have a hard time because it's not on Coinbase, Cash app or some mainstream app. The last CEX, Kraken is almost a MUST for businesses. Less Monero adoption => less financial privacy in the world.
@CryptoProject6
It's a balance, and there is no perfect balance point.
If you use XMR, then there isn't much anyone can do (or to help you with), as far as I know. Bitcoin can be traced, but not frozen, until you send it to a CEX. π€·ββοΈ

While
#XMR
's enormous value is in its privacy, Monero's price relative to $USD can easily 100x in the next few years. Retail adoption will start happening. Gradually, then suddenly. Issues with

#Monero
is well positioned to see further growth with the atomic swaps and the upcoming integrations. It will be soooo hard for CNBC to avoid mentioning the M word ;-) And

The adoption of
#Monero
by merchants and retailers continues to rise. Thatβs according to updated metrics from Cryptwerk, an online directory of companies, websites, shops and services
The IRS tried to stop it (offered a $1.25 Million bounty to anyone who can break
#Monero
's privacy). Chainalysis tried to trace it, & most CEX-es delisted it. But it still lives in the darkness. Where true anonymous digital cash belongs.

Look,
#CBDCs
are coming, whether you like it or not. A key concern is forced compliance & the lack of privacy. Once we accept CBDCs, we consent to a far more invasive digital surveillance apparatus & everything that comes after. Can we opt out? IF yes,
#Monero
is our best chance
#P2Pool
(decentralized mining pool) for
#Monero
is one of the coolest implementations in 2021 ! P2Pool combines the advantages of pool and solo mining. You still fully control your $XMR node but no one can use your mining rigs for a 51% attack!
#Monero
Open source money sabotaging the global panopticism since 2014. Decentralized. Censorship-resistant. Untraceable βcapillary powerβ! The Five Eyes will be 'poked and blinded'
Money touches nearly everything we do. Global surveillance & constant blockchain monitoring is now INEVITABLE. Constant & ongoing blockchain analytics cross referenced with XKeyscore and voila! Black Mirror will soon be your new life.

Folks getting triggered by XMR is a sign of increased relevance and importance. Cheers to this new milestone. Anyone new to crypto views
#Monero
as the obvious choice for digital cash alternative.
Private by default. Tx fee less than 1 cent. Inflation 1%
( 100 years from now - 33 Million

). Dynamic blocksize. CPU mining - ASIC & GPU resistant. Chainalysis canΒ΄t trace it. The IRS offers a $625,000 bounty to anyone who can break

's privacy. Most trusted & used
Already delisted. Already not part of any major exchange. Yet still growing. Still used. Spreading like wild fire π₯ Truly fungible. Truly untraceable despite what Cypherliars claim. Truly surveillance-proof. Truly scary for central banks! A real threat.
#Monero
your time is near
2018: Baikal & Bitmain announced the 1st ASICs for CryptoNight. ASICs posed a serious risk of centralization & security, due to the possibility of a 51% attack. In 2019
#Monero
successfully switched to
#RandomX
mining algo which is both ASIC- AND- GPU-resistant. 1 CPU = 1 VOTE.

Unlike

Unlike

Unlike gold, Bitcoin teleports and evolves.
Unlike real estate, no wear and tear.

Unlike bank deposits, you donβt need ID.
Unlike stocks, trading canβt be stopped.
Unlike bonds, no one can default.
Unlike altcoins, anyone can verify 21M.
5th milestone for $XMR<>$ETH atomic swaps project completed. Just needs a nice UI & Metamask integration. Like a bowling ball π³ in motion,
#Monero
is unstoppable. Building those permissionless avenues, outside CEX jurisdiction.
πWith XMR, the sender pays the network fee.
πFor your business it will always be completely free to accept XMR. It would cost your customer about $0.003 to pay with $XMR.
πIf you prefer a payment gateway, GloBee offers open source plugins for all major ecommerce platforms
Mass surveillance programs are illegal, that includes blockchain surveillance. I donβt understand how companies like Chainalysis, Elliptic, CipherTrace, Coinfirm, IdentityMind Elementus, dfuse, 3Box & BlockSeer can openly violate civil liberties & cash in on Federal Contracts?

Less-than-stellar reputation. No marketing. No leadership. No celebrity influencers. Not offered by Coinbase or Gemini. Millions spent on breaking its untraceability. Yet

Modern problems require modern solution. The truth is the entire blockchain analytics industry is a group of "surveillance soldiers" expanding the panopticon. Your privacy is a basic human right. Protect it, because legislators won't! Use

β As long as the
#Bitcoin
is on an exchange, you can transfer the money, and a dictator the next day can seize all that money from you. The same way they can expropriate through taxation your assets, your money, and your deposits.
IRS will only answer 9 out of 100 calls. The +$600 is some sort of automated flagging system pre-CBDCs, until automatic tax / negative interest rates can be implemented. What can YOU do? Reach out to your local vendors & educate them about
