The elimination of privacy is the elimination of personal communication and even inner thought. Privacy preserves individuality. If all value transfers are public & recorded, privacy is eroded. The erosion of privacy is the deterioration of the self.
@monero
preserves the self.
Monero will be labeled one of the greatest opportunities of all-time. Sitting for years at prices that anyone could afford to accumulate, having solved Bitcoin’s greatest flaws, and organically being adopted as true digital cash. Happy bday little guy. You have a long way to grow

Monero will soon be ready to be delisted from all centralized exchanges. No KYC, no permission required, anonymously swap into and out of Monero with ease via this new unstoppable on/off ramp:
Our new site is live!

We will also be publishing a series of articles providing an in-depth explanation of Serai over the next few weeks, as we get closer to being ready for deployment.
Monero is the ugly duckling of crypto. No one wants to look at it or be near it. It’s just boring digital cash. It’s controversial and dangerous to associate with it…until the world realizes it is one of a kind and that we need it..then it blossoms into the beautiful swan🦢 🚀
Monero has REAL “number go up” tech and it’s kicking in ! Its daily transaction count is surging to almost 100k today. Unlike Bitcoin’s fixed blocksize, Monero has Dynamic blocks , allowing Monero to scale in real time based on the demand for the network. It uses an elegant…

Everyone should keep their crypto off of centralized exchanges and when withdrawing their crypto should do so via Monero. Like taking cash out of the bank. Once in-hand you can swap xmr back into your crypto of choice via non kyc/aml means which are growing daily. This how we win
I will say it again & again. Monero should be the
#1
coin used for withdrawing crypto from centralized kyc/aml exchanges. Buy/trade crypto on a CEX if you must but take profits in Monero. Like withdrawing cash. Once off swap back into other cryptos without kyc or hodl & use. 🗽🚀

Big picture:
Monero is being delisted from exchanges because it works really well (onchain) and is actually used as digital cash. Whereas LN is the “digital cash solution” for Bitcoin, it doesn’t work very well as untraceable cash, and it’s clunky to work with. It’s not being…
Using Bitcoin to “fund the truckers” will ironically go down as the moment the world realizes how useless it is as digital cash. Stop lying to yourself and to people falsely depending on it. Turn off the laser eyes and responsibly Encourage dissidents and donors to use Monero

Monero is not just the fungible version of Bitcoin, it is also the scalable version. As more people move into Monero out of necessity for private and low fee peer to peer digital transactions; the more private and affordable transactions become!
Bitcoin is not digital gold. It is flawed digital cash that was rebranded as digital gold in an attempt to give it a purpose. Real digital gold will evolve from true digital cash.

It’s ironic and terrifying that the crypto masses and elite view Monero as a “nice to have dark coin” and Bitcoin as the “necessary golden one”. A future where most everyone has opted into total financial surveillance and where privacy is fringe is as dark as you can get.
This is how we make fiat irrelevant. This is how we beat CBDCs. Don’t sit and ponder what will happen. Opt-out now and we will determine what will happen. Use and grow true digital cash.
You would be surprised how easy it is to get people to accept Monero these days. Just ask them. Explain Bitcoin’s flaws (traceable and High transaction fees), and Monero’s features. Have them Download

Amazed that btc to xmr swaps are a real working thing. It’s hard to believe. It is as goosebump inducing as sending crypto peer to peer for the first time. Any guesses on how long until we can atomic swap from xmr into a stable coin???? 😬🗽🚀
Hey
@Timcast
we need you to fully understand Monero so you can use your platform to get the correct info out about it. Vulnerable people are using Bitcoin thinking it is untraceable when it is anything but and reporters are mistakenly spreading FUD about xmr being traceable
Amazing progress! As the boot-licking CEX’s abandon Monero, unstoppable xmr-btc atomic swap bridges take their place.

Monero is not a “privacy coin”. It is the closest thing to a “true cryptocurrency.” A self-propelling digital cash utility that’s resistant to State control. Privacy isn’t a tool for some uses, it’s essential to providing resistance to surveillance, censorship, and confiscation.

spot. No reason to use btc for this purpose when XMR does it better. Once the inertia of btc first mover advantage runs out and fools stop mistakenly using it as digital cash, Monero will forever pass btc on this front. True digital cash with liquidity ftw
Monero ($XMR) penetration has grown in darknet markets since last year (45% => 67%). Still one of the last bastions of $LTC though, lol.
