Aren't Travala supposed to promote them self on nostr:nprofile1qqsf8jzza0eruzvl8wzjvv3wxee5gagjd45w8v84jlrxx8rn0cg92fgppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qyvhwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytn6v43x2er9v5hxxmr0w4jqh80fqj this year?! All this KYC and crypto theft should be a thing to consider, at least for future events.
Economists I respect a lot seems certain that a complete collapse of the financial sector will occur within 12-16 month. Rooted in the lack of trust in USD, de-industrialization of EU.
To be honest anything that has close ties to the financial sector will be affected. Housing, Stocks, ETF's, ETC's.
I have hope in a few items that could potentially hedge against this wealth eradication.
- Commodities like metal and rare earth, that will always have a demand globally. Ideally gold in physical form.
- High-quality short-term corporate bonds in industries like healthcare etc.
- European LNG shipping stocks with low P/E and high dividends. The morons in EU will continue to ship gas from India and US for years to come.
My favorite
- Currencies/digital cash with no direct link to the USD based financial sector. Currencies that can not be used as a weapon (confiscated), currencies that are accepted globally and is hard to manipulate. The important part here is detachment from the highly leveraged system, that everyone in the top of the food chain expect to collapse within 12-16 month. #xmr #monero

There exists two kinds of New Year's resolutions. One where you succeed and one where you don't.
- The guy who wishes for 4 mio. USD within a year.
- The guy who wants to take up Muay Thai training again only one hour a week in the first half and if the body say's okay, 2 times a week the latter half. The plan to do more traveling will be pushed to 2027.
The O is correct though. It has to top the line, for the eye to interpret it as the same level.
I was close. But, I am curious about the extend they use KYC (if there are any way to circumvent this).
I have also been looking at:
nokyc.cards (looks pretty heavy on fees)
bank.arkfi.io (less fees)
It would be nice with a follow-up, if you succeed in getting a card. I live in the EU and is also looking for a path to an anonymous CC.
Do you belong to a sect where you can be bribed of with a food stamp that will keep you alive for 10 years but let a 1000 people suffer for the same amount of years? Or are you a real human?
Was that what my phone reboot earlier today?

They hate the great minds of western culture. From Socrates to Henry Ford they want to destroy it all, completely.
Easily manipulated and perverted animals is what they want.
Truthspeekers will NEVER have as loud a voice as the people who wants to direct you. They will never spend money to provide a truth you will never accept, when the deceiver can sell you a lie you would accept with ease.
Do Your Own Research
People who complains about inflation, tax and psyops. Just have to learn to avoid it.

One thing is to loose your 100% monopoly on storytelling, press and news.
Another disaster arises the moment you loose your monopoly on printing food stamps. Your ability to make everyone do anything disappears.
Patience often rewarded well.
And when she want's enjoy her 1/3.7 of her winnings. She'll have to pay some property tax or sales tax and the the corporate tax of the business where she spend her money and income tax of the employees who serves her and maybe some additional tariffs. If she's lucky that'll be it. But, she better spend it fast or the inflation will take an additional 20% over the next year.

The biggest threat to humanity is probably Hollywood and it's far reaching distribution network.
If you ever wonder why, watch a movie from before the 70's. Real people, real life situations, real values.
I'm not enough into the dev side. I beleive that podcasts like nostr:nprofile1qqsqe5q08p3g78h3x4epm7fajkz2gremkt858a5dxq0sy8wkx8r5l2cpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpr3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmq3s6fdd tries the keep the community informed and still tries to keep the devs pseudomized/anonymous.
But, looking at other projects where lead devs has suddenly changed the direction of a project without real opposition. Or skilled and well funded devs suddenly join in and take over a project. Is a lesson to be take seriously.
I think that:
- No dev should ever be able to rely on their status/authority. Only the case/code they present should have any validity.
- Open communication and debate of almost everything. Major decisions taken by the few without check'n balance, is by it self a vulnerability.
- Minimize economic bribes or conflict of interest. By ex. dev stakes, futures or options.
But, I'm actually relatively unaware of precisely things are setup now. To prevent corruption of devs or code.
Good evening to you all! Merry Christmas! 
You are right I am not a lawyer. Please correct me.
You are legally obliged to self-report, duty, taxes, sales tax/VAT when doing sales in cash or monero.
So, buying products in XMR, SHOULD in theory cost the same as a payment with a VISA card minus 5% payment processing and card fees.
Yes. I moved some of my buffer/savings from a FIAT bank account into monero.
It will now turn into a store of value and a medium of exchange. As the FIAT account was before.
This saving will continue to grow. It will cause some level of deflation (you get more for your xmr over time, which may lead to less rapid spending).
But, the big question I continue to ask my self. Will it lead me to spend or buy less (incl. in XMR) than I do now?
I tend to fear volatility more than steady appreciation. If the "speculation" is brought about by wide community rather than a few whales, the volatility might be keept from the door steps.
Monero has the advantage of being a pretty darn good medium of exchange, in comparison to gold, stocks and other crypto coins. So, it will side by side with FIAT continue to be one of the favored exchange mediums, no matter the underlying price. It's my personal take.
But, I agree 100% that a wider adoption is way more healthy and important than speculation by the few.
I have the same gut feeling. If it goes below 50k I actually don't think it will ever recover again.
Either BTC will slowly start to recover or it will fall trough the roof.
The next month will tell.
From time to time I'm invited over to people who considers them selves to have "done well". They show off their house, their car and their watch.
But, as soon as we hit the dinner table it hits me like a rock. These people have no deep thoughts, they have no practical skills and not least they have no good taste in food or ability to prepare it.
Existence is the goal in and off it self. Not how much you can be pushed to create.
In the era of AI, humans will have no justification (right to exist) as they can not produce. That's the logic that follows of your statement.
💯 and ritual burning of children seems to be the new moral ground..
Nice to see you are back again Joel 💪
Be worried about people who wants to show their high morals and who wants's force it upon you.
Connect with people who are able to put them self in the place of others. Empathy is the difference between an NPC and a human.
You have Monero nostr:nprofile1qqsqc3wh630dkradmfppt5mv5rv6hgx8wxu96dchwe9c5y5dtezrungpzdmhxw309ucnydewxqhrqt338g6rsd3eqyt8wumn8ghj7cnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmqu25z2h!! That's the closest you get to a guaranteed ticket. No one needs to live like a king to retire.
I don't want to psychologize you, it were more a general reference to the fact that we often let out conclusion be directed by our underlying emotions.
We can always find the numbers we need to confirm our assumptions. I'm a monero-guy and of cause this chart is a selected window.
But, whats interresting, is that there is an assumption (the monero community in particular) that monero is performing worse than it could, other coins can pump 1000% over a month and BTC would have been a far better bet. This chart just show that monero is actually performing pretty well, BTC is a kind of benchmark in that matter.
I have a hard time making that conclusion, matching BTC with other later coins.
It sounds to me like your lusts, want, needs has taken over your ability to do basic rational observations.
It's not just the start date, but a continues trend. If you draw a straight line thru both charts to make an avg.
When I buy a stock. I don't compare McDonald's performance since 1965 to Arm's performance since 2023.
If that's what you suggests? The start date is the same as of what I can see.
Or are you saying that one should compare the first 2 years of McDonald's IPO from 1965-1967 with Arm from 2023-2025. To figure out if McDonald is a good investment comparable to Arm today???
It is pretty hard to pick an earlier date, if there were no existence of one of the coins in the Comparison.
I can only say that monero based on it's market cap is no threat to BTC. It serves another purpose.
Monero focus on privacy.
Honestly. 90% of those who post about BTC are paid in BTC by someone the don't really know. They just have to influence and post some Surfing pics and promote BTC.

Henry Ford was one of the greatest notices and truth seekers of our time. The pedophile crime syndicate hates him, for his integrity.
Last time I tried that it was extremely slow. Has that improved?
Kind a still feels Musk has been forced to submission. He have made some honest posts about Jews, Iran and US bases, NATO's war in Ukraine. But, these people kill Presidents without hesitation.
I think he tried and hoped for a real movement in politics (the Roman salute was not just some awkward waving with his hand). But, discovered Trumps was hijacked (Epstein).
But, he is still holding strong on free speech on X, compared to all other platforms.
He is an easy target by the elite and the masses.
