Thats true.
It would be interesting to see what happens if monero had say 10x the marketcap it has today.
oh that's a repost?

no doubt because of the StartOS plug

they're going to give you a CBDC iou for your bitcoin one day
or they will put you in a cage.
prepare yourself.
There are orders of magnitude of difference between
1. knowing your peer accepts a thing and using it privately
and
2. recording the tx on a transparent ledger anyone with an internet connection can see
All central points (gift card providers, CEXs etc) have the same weakness, whether BTC or XMR, and are susceptible to pressure
Privacy is the only thing that makes direct p2p censorship resistant.
price point incentivizes regulatory capture.
only a coin that can be used *without announcing it's use* stands a chance against state attacks.
"They" are about 1000x more likely to do this first with bitcoin than with monero.
It should be a separate league.
So does their custom Android preserve privacy or not?
if breedlove or svetski was ever one of your heros, you have issues
lol ok
so cool but not terribly useful
much more concerned about reputation managing for anonymous mints than difficulty in spinning one up tbh
atm I would never give my btc to a mint i didn't personally IRL know and trust the members of
which considerably reduces the usefulness of fedimints...
yeah
like, price?
or anything other than sexy marketing footage?
