The idea of a crypto summit at the white house kind of makes me cringe. I'm all for deregulation, that's good, but the heart of crypto is fundamentally opposed to the state. Make crypto scary again, fuck all this cozying up with the state bullshit. That's why I like Monero so much, the Monero community doesn't give two fucks about ETFs and Blackrock's Model Portfolio, or banks being allowed to custody crypto, strategic reserves, or politician pump and dumps. The Monero community just cares about creating digital cash that is completely outside of state control. It cares about ensuring you can hold wealth that is safe from confiscation. It cares about the ability to transfer value anywhere without being spied upon. Shout out to all the devs who have ever put work into $XMR and it's ecosystem, they are doing God's work. It's not glamorous and it's not very rewarding financially since it is funded by donations and not venture capital. There was no premine or token sale. These people just fucking care about freedom and are willing to fight for it. The events of the last two months with LIBRA and trump's memecoins and now this strategic reserve tweet pump and dump have burnt me out and just makes me appreciate even more the purity of the Monero community. These people are keeping the dream alive. #monero #bitcoin #trump #cryptosummit

We don't need your CEX. https://x.com/DontTraceMeBruh/status/1896159509564772441?t=pkBgoDwR5cCX122bdnwUYg&s=19

Hope you didn't sell your bitcoin lol. I learned long ago...you never sell your bitcoin. Anyone who was shorting crypto just got wrecked.

`cuprated` successfully fast-synced Monero's blockchain, from block 0 to current block height, in 1 hr., 50 minutes.

Can we have a slow clap for how well Monero has performed during the market correction when almost every single altcoin got wrecked? #monero

I am trying to register my cat's and dog's microchips that I injected into them (way cheaper if you do it at home than paying a vet to chip them), but I wanted to pick the best pet microchip registry company from a privacy perspective. So I used the Venice AI front end to ask deepseek about it. I uploaded a copy of three different companies' privacy policies, Petlink, Peeva, and Home Again and put deepseek R1 671B on it. Apparently, Petlink is the best choice for privacy out of these three companies. It's the only one that explicitly states they don't share or sell your data to any advertisers or data brokers. If anyone knows of a better choice than Petlink for privacy let me know. It's difficult because I go out of my way to avoid linking my name with my address, I don't receive mail at my home address for example, but when I register my pets I want to use my home address so if they get lost and someone finds them they will at least know where they live. I will probably register them under an alias and a burner phone number but with the real address and pay for it with a prepaid visa gift card. Here's a link to the chat I had with Venice, it's got URL trackers on it though because if you end up signing up I get points. Although I'm not sure what the points are for now since they already airdropped their token? They are a great privacy conscious front end to access multiple AI models from. #privacy #cats #pets #deepseek
