The amazing thing is how easy it is to change links to your website or create multiple links for your website. just add new hiddenservice lines to torrc. Don't forget to enable the proof of work, though.

And black markets overwhelmingly prefer Monero because using Bitcoin has been proven to be a good way to end up in jail. Just talk to Ross Albrecht., roger ver, ian freeman, the guy accused of running Bitcoin fog, samurai wallet, etc.

I have two answers to this. The first answer is that it already has changed the world because now people see that digital property can exist and that you can send money around the world at the speed of light in seconds and it settles quickly and is irreversible.

My other answer is never because it does not have good privacy and good privacy is absolutely a requirement for money.

I absolutely love this. I don't think it will work primarily because of the speed of hidden services. Even though it's better, it's still not great since you have to go through six hops to maintain the proper privacy. But otherwise, I absolutely love this idea and think it's totally worth pursuing.

you can issue a command to your node on cli to do this. I believe it checks the coinbase transactions, but I'm not absolutely sure.

I don't see why not. after all, XMRBazaar has or will have an onion and they are a legal only market.

Yeah, I knew they weren't decentralized because of the fact that they could block people from the United States. And if it was just a smart contract, they would not be able to do that.

damn. true

Yep, up until they get their house raided over something. And then it's not such a hot deal anymore, I bet.

It is changing the unit of account between you and the business, but it is not changing the unit of account between the business and the supplier. You as an individual, though, get to denominate prices in Monero and save in Monero if you wish.

And why exactly is there a CEO to go after?

Right, but to do that, we're going to need manufacturers and farmers and miners, etc. We need actual resources to be denominated in Monero as they are pulled out of the ground or roll out the factory door, etc. But in order to even get companies like that interested, I think we need to get the price of Monero to stabilize. And what I am doing is attempting to help at least that little bit.

You have to buy the goods you're selling in Monero for something, whether it's dollars or sheep or gold or silver or whatever, you have to buy it with something in order to put it into the Monero economy. You're not just being given the items for free.

Super excited for #MoneroTopia 2024!

I actually do denominate prices in Monero and encourage others to do the same.

Oh, it's a million times better. Before, they were just able to flood the network with as much denial of service traffic as they wanted to. And now, their computers actually have to work in order to do so. Don't get me wrong, there are still attacks, but they are much less than they used to be.

top is close. fomo causes coinbase app to shoot up and plebs buy at top

I use Monero frequently enough that I am beginning to commonly recognize how much things should cost directly in Monero was very little thought. I guess this feeling would be similar to something experienced by a frequent traveler between two countries that uses both currencies because I can do the conversion in my head fairly quickly and be pretty close to accurate.

Not enough block space for everybody to transact on the main chain. And so fees would go through the stratosphere. And no, lightning is not a solution to this, as most people would just be using custodial lightning. And that's bullshit.

Because most people hold their coins on Coinbase, etc. But if they actually owned their own coins, fees on the main chain would be stupid high.
