JoinMarkets, ecash, mint swaps, nostr, silent payments, and more coming. The incentives for decentralized privacy are finally here.

Never been this bullish for uncapturable privacy.

Exactly. All the FUD out there right now - but you can come to Nostr, zap some SATS - and what can the US Gov (or any Gov) do about it?

Gonna build a Nostr prison? lol

They will just make being a lightning service provider illegal which will shut down the majority of the big nodes and since lightning is so damn difficult to use it will die pretty much immediately. Monero fixes this at the Layer 1.

Once I can buy/sell #Bitcoin directly using Monero I'm in - until it's truly integrated into Bitcoin, no go.

Do you mean like atomic swaps? That's already a thing if that's what you mean. Where you can just switch back and forth between them as you need.

Still don't know how i feel about Monero. Basically the only crypto outside bitcoin that i have some respect for.

Same here, which is why I actually started using it in 2022 after having left the crypto scene entirely after the 2017 block wars and the insanely high fees.
