Both perspectives are true, but one is true at the deluded/limited level of the ego and thus relative, and the other is probably the deepest spiritual truth.
Someone who identifies unconsciously with ego-consciousness (that's the vast majority of people..) cannot fathom the depth and truth of the broader perspective.
But the potential to do so is ever within :) Where else would it be!
It's more than that. The recipient info could be added manually offchain.
But they want the ability to track&trace anyone for any reason in perpetuity. And Monero does stop that.
Tribes predate nation states by several hundred thousand years.
The modern nation state is a fairly recent invention. But to the point, yes, seems to me it only ever worked because people felt as a tribe under its banner, along with shared values, ways of seeing the world, common goals, etc.
Most of that seems to go away when multiple tribes from incompatible places each with competing values are artificially put together under that same single banner.
If at least it's organic and the rate is throttled and the newcomers are vetoed (coming to add value and not to leech, compatible cultural values etc) then it's probably find. But gazillions unvettoed coming to overload an already fragile system, from cultures with incompatible values, who largely have no wish to integrate with the broader culture, then yeah.. different story.
I think he was saying that it's working as intended (the goal being creating chaos, divide and conquer).
To understand where this is coming from, listen to this episode:

And we'll be here to call you out too.
Calling the most widely used, most trusted and most beloved anonymous&private L1 a shitcoin is obtuse and very ignorant.
Why do people take it? Because it feels great!
Until it doesn't :p
Was reviewing your offers when I noticed that only 1 ipv6 is offered. That seems needlessly limiting. Do you mean a /48? Or at least a /64?
Life under commie tyranny looks like this.
Don't let the commies win!
Ledger support for liquid is basically nothing (there's an old app for ledger nano s, which is ancient now, not even sure the app still works..). Does Trezor fare any better?
I got a jade just for liquid, but it's my least favorite hww.
My thoughts exactly! XMR is not a good SoV, but it's pretty decent digital cash.
## The dynamic block size makes it not decentralized, because if it has a massive adoption only big companies will be able to run the nodes.
There is a cap to the adaptive block size, and we literally have 100gbit connections available now (which would be a lot more than what you would need). Storage is getting chesper, too.
It will be fine.
## It has a hidden and unsolvable inflation problem due to its technology (ring signatures), it is one of the reasons among others why Liquid did not adopt ring signatures, if they did they could not guarantee the 1:1 backing between Bitcoin and L-BTC.
It has a POTENTIAL inflation problem, but so does Bitcoin and anything else.
Indeed, of the two, it is Bitcoin who has suffered a massive inflation bug, that was not devastating simply because almost no one used Bitcoin then.
This one is a common misconception, see https://www.moneroinflation.com
tldr: you need a FEW more cryptographic trust assumptions, if you verify that portion of the code to your satisfaction, you can be sure there won't be a hidden inflation bug.
## There is no consensus or stability in the network, Monero has had numerous hardforks throughout its short history to introduce new features which hinders its adoption as a store of value or currency.
It's a different culture.
There is consensus at the blockchain level in the sense that all nodes follow the same rules, and there is social consensus that the hardforks, when they must be done, are acceptable.
Also, there hasn't been a hardfork for awhile now. But there will be one in a year or two, it will add more privacy features, and pretty much everyone agrees with it.
## It has tail issuance, which while low, nothing guarantees given the history of hardforks that this will change in the future.
Except crystal meth and food are not even remotely on the same level at all.
BTW I'm not saying the abuses of the food industry shouldn't be stopped, I am though saying that the person needs to want to stop abusing their own body if they really want to quit. And yes, that goes for Mr Meth as well.
I don't have the perception that being unhealthy is a trend now, but dystopically enough I also don't find that hard to believe.
afaik the ETF is fully backed by actual BTC.
I put the responsibility squarely on the people who literally couldn't keep their mouth shut.
Sure, addictive food exists and is engineered to be so, but no one is pointing a gun to their heads and forcing them to be in a caloric surplus for months on end.
Only by reclaiming their personal power can the damage their unconsciousness did be undone, to the extent that it still can be undone.
Personal responsibility > politicians/saviors.
Disinformation! We won't be able to scare the masses into giving us even more control! Our monies will evaporate!
BAN HIM!
Do you honestly think the people who've been busy playing tyrant are going to do less of that if they can track what everyone does in real time with near-complete accuracy (transparency...)?
Or might they instead double down on the control and censorship, you think?
