Tucker Carlson brings up the privacy issue in crypto. «A lot of people in the crypto world are admirable — I’m friends with some and agree with them on many things. But why you are the only one talking about crypto transactions aren’t private? They’re easily trackable by the government. Why isn’t anyone else sounding the alarm?» «Because the censorship and propaganda works — a lot of people are taking, few gets heard», was the answer. Somebody should tell him about that "dumb shitcoin" called Monero. Source: https://xcancel.com/marionawfal/status/1866661093998825607 #monero #xmr #crypto #privacy

ah, I love freedom of speech under democratic capitalism

Why #Monero, besides inability of governments or organizations to track and potentially target transactions or users? (And why other coins, if there's Monero?) Monero has: · no CEO · no vulnerable corporate presence, anonymous core developers not subject to US/EU regulatory pressure or intimidation · not overly-concerned with compliance, privacy is prioritized in every consideration regardless of the consequences · fully private at protocol level (no "optional privacy"), all transactions look the same, transparency is strictly opt-in · auto-shielded IP addresses · uses established, well-understood, battle-tested and thus reliable cryptography (as may be opposed to novel, experimental, much less understood and thus potentially flawed cryptography of some newer coins) · modular approach to privacy = no single point of failure · proven track record, 10+ years of sustained darknet usage with 0–1 users traced, has notably foiled the FBI, Europol & the IRS · no suspected backdoors · no dev tax i.e. "founder's reward/community development fund", conditional donation-based dev funding gives the community more leverage and keeps devs disciplined ·wasn't designed to systematically enrich founders, wasn't pre-mined, whales have either mined or bought their coins like everybody else · not transitioning to Proof-of-Stake. PoS is much more environmentally friendly, yet PoW still has a proven 10+ year track record while consumer-grade CPU mining remains the most anonymous, most permissionless way of acquiring coins · ASIC resistance (greater hash rate decentralization because of ineffectiveness of pool mining) · tail emission · dynamic blocksize · low inflation · ever-increasing real-world adoption, actually displacing even more popular crypto (BTC, USDt, ETH) in OPSEC-critical markets, endorsed by the DNM Bible · growing criminal adoption = infinitely more street cred + law enforcement/regulator hostility = additional battle-hardening · has a good reputation, widely admired and respected by non-hodlers, has enough traction, activism, enthusiasm · no trademark restrictions, no pandering to the Establishment, has steadfastly remained true to crypto's anti-authoritarian free market cypherpunk ideals · one of the most successful Esperanto agitation now this is not anti-btc or anti-usdt, this is just and only a list of some cool strengths xmr has. I think that the point of cryptographic resistance lies in the «crypto vs banks», not «my-favorite-coin vs banks and shitcoins». we all should invest in #bitcoin, purchase anonymously with #monero, use smart contracts based on #etherium, drop down fees by #litecoin, stay safe from price crashes in #usdt, lower carbon emissions with #solana, invest in agorism with #ripple, share small support every day using #sats, and even make such great things possible as decentralized end-to-end encrypted lightning-fast ridiculously cheap cloud drive with #storj* or canceling Sybil attack possibility in decentralized chats with #oxen* (future session tokens). in other words, unionize cryptoanarchists, don't divide them. there is no "best" coin in the center — decentralize the decentralized currency sentiments. just don't buy #HAWKTUAH. *this is not #sponsored, I just love to yap about decentralized apps #crypto #cryptocurrency #btc #xmr #opinion

one of the reasons why #Session — the app that cares not only about hiding data, but about hiding ALL of the meta-data as well. View quoted note →
