If you really believe in a product, person or company. To the extent that you feel that you have done all your research and sketched up all outcomes and competitive advantages.
You will see a price reduction as god sent gift. Like when your favorite sausage is on sale for half price, you buy two.
That's how I feel about Monero right now.

Let's leave the Matrix!
What people needs to understand. Representative "Democracy" has never had anything to do with Democracy except the word it self. In advertising they know - give people a feeling of choice and not to many options. If you make cereals you make three different packages, with minor variations "light", "original", "fitness".
This is the same with representative "Democracy". The established media serves your options and forces you to pick - and then makes you responsible for your own demise.
STOP your participation, as long as +50% votes, this looks legitimate and "Democratic". It never was and it never will be.

The game stops when enough people get access to objective, honest and truthful information (independent media and social media). To make informed decisions and opinions. And FED printed food stamp is not the only way of survival (un-coopted crypto that are used for transactions and are private). Then people can start participating in decision-making (democracy), preferably on a decentralized local level and to the extent centralized decisions are necessary. Voting and decision-making can take place in many forms, just look at the DAO's on blockchain.
Just promote the right tools and things will slowly start to happen. Information, leverage and better alternatives.
What Europeans don't understand!
Is the fact that most Prime Ministers and Presidents is connected to Bilderberg or Freemasonry. Rothschild's is European. Every single EU commissioner is a Freemason, non is elected, they create the laws (only rubber stamped by "Parliament"). Almost every single Editor-in-Chief have the same relation.
What is obvious in the US, is hidden away in secret societies in the EU.


And episode 2, for feedback..

Age of Darkness - Episode 2
Crypto series, noir - Rowan starts to notice a pattern
Before I progress to far out this path.. I would like some feedback (I can use for improvement). I have started on a Crypto Series, expected 20 episodes in a Season.
I have made the first 2 episodes, I think ep. 2 is improved a bit from the first episode. But, I still think there is room for improvement.
Is it lacking progression?
Is the music inside the story a bad idea?
Is it to much of the same corporate dilemmas?

Age of Darkness - Episode 1
Noir crypto series, Rowan Ledger escapes the matrix.
By now the world is divided (not by the usuals left/right, 50/50, media construction). The division is..
Between the people who blindly "believe" in the ESTABLISHED media, that reject all scepticism, call proff and evidence a conspiracy, views information shared between people as disinformation. Those who would rather reject objectivism, common sense and facts than stop clinging to their synthetic belief system that has been build up over a whole life.
And those who slowly is accepting the fact that their constructed reality is based on a well orchestrated, tightly knit, secret conspiracy against the general public. That everything they have been taught and fought for, has been deliberately deceptive. Every war, every regulation, every election, every loss of liberty and freedom.
You have a duty to help out tipping that balance in the favor of truth, justice and freedom.
They've lost control over Monero!! It does not obey their orders.

What a rugpull! This will probably continue for a while..
Just know this. No one want's their assets in FIAT in particular not USD for very long. You just have to figure out when and where the FIAT is going back into real assets again.
When you want to learn the truth. Just listen to those, that you are encouraged not to listen to.
These days I get confirmed in my assumption that administering half of my pension, by my self. Was one of the best decisions I ever made.
Getting late into the game 35 yrs old, with a low wage I had to make some more "risky" decisions about pension. But, here 10yrs later with 750% return (a bit better than nasdaq 100) I am considering when to stop paying into a pension. At this point and pace it really do not make sense to continue to pay after I'm 50.
I would encourage any young person to do the same. I would not directly call pension funds a scam or a ripoff. But, you will pay many fees and your money will end up in places you would never consider good investments yourself (like U.S. Treasuries), to "minimize" risk AND return's.
People seems to forget to ask the question, who is financing it. "Follow the money" often reveals more about the purpose of an app, a newspaper, influencers...
Falling for the same puppet mastery again and again..
Sometimes I can't stop wondering. How big a percentage of the profiles I see, mighty be AI agents and how many might be real agents.
Lastly I have 20-30 profiles that I know are real people, with real opinions and real values.
Under the circumstances we live in today. Every anarchist should take his precautions and don't let anything up to the state, government or society. He is a nomad that always needs to stay one step ahead.

The sad reality is that the general public are fearful, hypothetical, opportunistic cowards.
In the real world they choose the Evil Empire over the Rebels. The chooses wrong over right, fake over real.
Benjamin Franklin: "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
They might soon loose control of Monero's valuation. I doubt that speculators are causing significant dumps, xmr is not really a pump'n dump coin. It only makes sense to go long in Monero as an investor.
I suspect that, beyond all the FUD, the Qubic attack, delistings on CEX and criminalization of xmr. "They" (who ever they are) mine all they can with a loss. The fact that the liquidity of monero on the few CEX's and DEX is very small, dumping these mined coins in batches have an effect on the temporary market price. But, it seems more clear than ever that they have a hard time continuing down this path and their price dominance is running out.
The second big inflow of Monero, that is more inline with the "medium of exchange" principles. Is the fact that Monero is one of most (if not the most) used coins. Many businesses will either convert (swap) it on spot to another crypto they use as store of value. Many also swap their xmr donations or payments due to compliance reasons. All these coins hit the exchange constantly, creates volume and a stability that prevents Monero from going to the moon over night.
