Finnnnnneeeeee! Il have another play with Nostr.

PRIVACY ALERT 🚨

Using Bisq token for trades links transactions. I wasn’t aware of this until speaking to nostr:npub1tr4dstaptd2sp98h7hlysp8qle6mw7wmauhfkgz3rmxdd8ndprusnw2y5g

Here’s a clip. 👇🏴‍☠️👇 https://video.nostr.build/a6d56f62e94bcb14dbcced36f77a53fec88bb3fea325d8ec9f6555e75df685f1.mp4

The best way to cover up being low IQ and wrong is to attack someone else. Seth is a solid bloke with very reasonable takes.

It could be worth understanding the subject you want to comment on. nostr:npub1tr4dstaptd2sp98h7hlysp8qle6mw7wmauhfkgz3rmxdd8ndprusnw2y5g and me go into detail on this subject in case you want to learn. Hope it’s useful.

aside from your trivial, stupid and inaccurate objections to the name and users of #monero

the simple fact Trumps memecoin became so expensive so quickly shows that market cap mostly indicates *speculative interest by cantillionaires*

Unfortunately being on a fiat standard means the fiat price of these things has little to do with their Value.

this is why delistings are gud aktualy. Moneristas want *people to use the tools.* not just play around with them. delistings encourage the education of users who actually NEED the properties of the asset to aquire and use it in a sovereign way.

CEXs are rent seekers.

a tail emission is NOT "Infinite supply." at any given point in time you know EXACTLY how much monero is in circulation. how is that infinite?

it's correct to say "as time approaches infinity, supply also approaches infinity."

and that's a mathematical abstract that has fuck all to do with the real world.

when was the last time you audited the bitcoin supply? right. never.

you're ALREADY trusting cryptographic primitives you dont understand.

it is true moneros supply guarantees depends on different cryptography than is used in Bitcoin. but it is old and well established and its irrational to say you'll trust what's implemented in Bitcoin but not what's implemented in Monero.

And since you bring it up, here's a pod on that very subject that nostr:npub1lqvv69u549atefvcyfht30lemlyvl9jnz4l7c6ejs20yzpq7hh7sjjfx0r dropped a few hours ago.

Thanks for sharing. Hope it’s helpful.

The problem with #Monero is you can’t verify the supply…or can you? My co host nostr:npub1tr4dstaptd2sp98h7hlysp8qle6mw7wmauhfkgz3rmxdd8ndprusnw2y5g joins me to discuss. 👇🏴‍☠️👇

Need to get this off my chest because I see a need for caution.

I’ve been a fan of nostr:npub1jcympy69pht7ptan39se4nd09e4q66qhey649uu3rczm2zh88c7s0n2890 and nostr:npub1lqvv69u549atefvcyfht30lemlyvl9jnz4l7c6ejs20yzpq7hh7sjjfx0r's previous projects for what feels like a long time and must now admit to ambivalent feelings after listening to the latest monthly dedicated to xmr.

On the one hand, it’s a feeling of awareness. One must adapt. I agree, in principle. On the other hand, it’s a sense of defeat. Is this the only road to follow after all the privacy-related letdowns of the past year? Of course not. It’s more nuanced than that. I know so, but does a newcomer?

nostr:npub1jcympy69pht7ptan39se4nd09e4q66qhey649uu3rczm2zh88c7s0n2890 may not be the onboarding platform par excellence, but I’m sure many new people listen to it and learn a ton thanks to that.

Adaptation is one thing, but adoption is another. What rubs me the wrong way is the message being spread from within the btc community, where members are quite ‘I|0’, generally speaking, and for good reason. Until not so long ago, nostr:npub1jcympy69pht7ptan39se4nd09e4q66qhey649uu3rczm2zh88c7s0n2890 was in the same camp, but last year’s developments have changed that significantly. I understand as I also care for privacy.

The hybrid theory on its bed of coexistence sounds rational from a pragmatic view within the privacy sphere. Yet, from most other angles it entails ‘blind focus’ risks, mainly to newcomers, who are often easily influenced due to a lack of knowledge they cannot be blamed for.

That’s what I struggle with.

As an antidote, maximalism in its toxic and less toxic forms (the binary approach, let’s say) has prevented a lot of misery among newbies and altcoiners alike.

I am not taking a stance for or against privacy coins. Neither am I taking a stance for or against maximalism. To each their own. I do want to express my concern about all those other ‘projects’ new people can be sucked into in the same breath. There’s btc and crypto. Privacy coins are crypto. They’re not necessarily shit. I know so, but does a newcomer?

From an educational point of view, I consider it important to guide people towards btc and adequate privacy practices related to btc first. Optional sidetracks could be looked into at a later stage.

That’s the order of things for me. YMMV, of course. I’m no fundamentalist either. However, this approach will suit the majority, I reckon.

I’ll keep on listening to see my own beliefs challenged once a month by a very knowledgeable nostr:npub1tr4dstaptd2sp98h7hlysp8qle6mw7wmauhfkgz3rmxdd8ndprusnw2y5g (much respect, btw). nostr:npub1lqvv69u549atefvcyfht30lemlyvl9jnz4l7c6ejs20yzpq7hh7sjjfx0r is crucial in adding nuance, as well as the occasional disclaimer aimed at new listeners, perhaps?

I do at the same time hope the bitcoin-centric core with nostr:npub15c88nc8d44gsp4658dnfu5fahswzzu8gaxm5lkuwjud068swdqfspxssvx doesn’t lose its foundation [pun not intended] within the new nostr:npub1jcympy69pht7ptan39se4nd09e4q66qhey649uu3rczm2zh88c7s0n2890 conceptualisation. That would be a deplorable loss, imho.

Bitcoin privacy deserves fighting for. No need to outsource all efforts towards it. No need to point newcomers towards a totally different path altogether either as long as absolute privacy is not their top concern.

Think of newcomers like parents think of their children.

No privacy coin could ever hold the incredible tangible and non-tangible values of Bitcoin/bitcoin in store.

But hey, in the end, I’m just a non-technical aficionado with an opinion. Don’t take me/it too seriously.

Walking into 2025 with a mind more open than ever before.

Best wishes!

Peace and love 🧡

I appreciate the well thought out and detailed message. I totally understand where you are coming from and me nostr:npub15c88nc8d44gsp4658dnfu5fahswzzu8gaxm5lkuwjud068swdqfspxssvx and nostr:npub1luwkteu2eq2e97n7hw0tlj03vvgguzl0srm3vkxz2jt75wpaf9tspt9cqr will continue to explain to listeners the importance of no KYC, privacy and security techniques, mining knowledge and any freedom related tools we can share with listeners. Monero is a tool I find useful, I’m new to it and would like to learn more. nostr:npub1tr4dstaptd2sp98h7hlysp8qle6mw7wmauhfkgz3rmxdd8ndprusnw2y5g is the perfect man to help me and others understand more without being an annoying shill. I hope you enjoy the Monero monthly show but if it’s not for you in the future I will certainly not be offended if you skip that show and just listen to the others. Thanks for reaching out and stay ungovernable.
