Monero As the Internet's Currency Anonymous 04/18/2021 (Sun) 01:27:33 No. 3581
There's many cryptocurrencies out there. But out of the many cryptocoins out there only one stands out, Monero. It's safe, secure, private, and anonymous and there has yet to be a government agency that can crack its code. It's also not handled by banks, payment processors, and credit card companies that may blacklist you for bullshit reasons. The promising technology of atomic swapping will also render crypto exchanges to be not needed as this will counter government regulations of asset exchanges. Also this cryptocurrency is the easier to mine compared to Bitcoin. So do you think Monero will see more widespread use in the future? Give your thoughts.
>this totally-not-a-shill post for Monero Anyway, I can't tell since I'm still a newfag to crypto and I haven't really bothered to sit down and look through information as to how it all works. I sure as shit like the idea of something that has as much utility as a debit card (being able to order products from far away without necessitating you leaving your house to physically arrive there) but more anonymous, but not do I not know how to transfer existing currency over to it (if possible), most places I'd use it with don't currently accept it, and due to it being a digital entity, it's only a matter of time (even if that matter of time could very well be decades into the future) before someone cracks it open and it becomes vulnerable to some sort of direct attack or have its supposed advantages in privacy, security, and anonymity rendered null.
>So do you think Monero will see more widespread use in the future? Not to the same extent as Bitcoin, simply because it isn't as transparent. That alone makes it the enemy of the regulators, blockchain analysis companies, and corporate shills that have done their best to undermine the privacy aspect of crypto. And since major exchanges are pressured not to list Monero, it's useless to normies too eager to stack sats at the expense of their anonymity.
>>3590 crypto is still in the "its a new thing" phase, so for now it's good for pump and dump, buy when below the medium then sell when the hedge fund faggots drive up the price. crypto will be worth something once enough people get blacklisted from banks. At that point the only cryptos worth using will be Monaro, for it's anonymity, Litecoin, for its speed, and bitcoin, for it's name and high value. Everything else is just a meme / pump-n-dump scam.
>>3603 meant median not medium
Doesn't Monero require burning electricity for no reasons like Bitcoin?
>>3616 Yeah, but as I understand it, the algorithm it uses for proof-of-work, is specifically designed to work well on normal computer hardware and to be resistant to specialized GPUs. Still not as good as something like proof-of-stake IMO, but better than bitcoin.
>>3600 >Not to the same extent as Bitcoin Does anyone actually use Bitcoin to buy shit? Last I heard the transaction fees were $60 and waiting period is 3 days
>>3752 No, it's deliberately designed for those holding to continually make money off idiots buying in and selling out. There was a "fork" years ago, which is where "BitCoin Cash" comes from. The Cash algorithm follows the original BitCoin protocol while BitCoin managed to steal the branding and fame and promised transaction fee profits to everyone mining and holding. Since the entire market was generated by get-rich-quick scammers they all quickly piled onto that and hyped it, and the sheep followed. If you want to spend it, use BitCoin Cash or one of the other currencies that doesn't have prohibitive transaction fees. All the ones that do are designed for pump & dump.
>>3581 Monero is Cringe - NSA Hipster twink.
>>4080 ok Anonymous
How do you get Monero in anonymous way?
>>4166 Local Monero Then run it through a mixer if your paranoid. Can finally deposit onto a hardware wallet
monero is alright, there are superior so-called "privacy coins" to monero though. dero, for example, is superior to monero both from a security as well as a capability standpoint. there are even still, others. i suppose it doesn't matter much though since adoption/use is the most important thing. that said, there are more than a handful of coins being traded on a site like tradeogre that are superior to monero
>>4265 >dero >a privacy-conscious smart contract blockchain That's neat. Maybe it will be possible to make a fully private algorithmic stablecoin. >An initial premine of 2 000 000 Dero Hmmm. >To fund development and marketing Maybe.
>>4265 >there are more than a handful of coins being traded on a site like tradeogre that are superior to monero Enlighten us a little, if you please
>>4265 >>4643 https://forum.dero.io/t/missing-dero-funds/1501 Have the devs been siphoning funds from brainlets who use the web wallet? Perhaps. Perhaps not.
>>3616 Yeah but it isn't as bad for the enviroment as they say it is,the study only counted the hours where products where on,that means that refrigerators and things like TVs which consume energy even on suspend aren't counted,also miners move to places where energy is cheaper(AKA renewable energy and wasted electricity).
New fag here, is there any application or code to make an online store with monero or a way of personalizing transactions such as messages ,the only transaction apps I see are proprietary or get a cut . I say this because now transactions depends in a lot of trust and isn't professional.If I'm a chair seller and I sell two chairs but there are three request how do I know who I send the chair to,not to mention that for what I know you can't just make a website where it register if someone has send you monero or not

>>5345 bump for interest
Anyone use their wallet inside Tails? Wanted to buy some too but didn't find a way to do so anonymously.
psss OXEN
>>4256 >mixer Just don't. The currency by designed is meant to obfuscate the transaction. If you somehow fear that one transaction can be deanonimized then you could just set up another address to receive your own coin. But in that case if you fear the crypto has been broken? Outta luck son, make sure your transaction was legit, legal, and innocuous at that point.
>>5345 You can generate per-customer or per-purchase stealth addresses
Anon drags a mouse No (You) are really pathetic huh?
nvidia are killing gpu mining so its only before monero gets a pump and the golden age returns to cpus. I am fucking sick of crypto currency that are nothing and aren't privacy oriented and not decentralized. Monero is the only coin with an actual use and philosophy that crypto currency should be.
>>6012 No but I meant for online stores,like checking the money automatically or showing inside the website server as if someone (anonymously preferably) has paid or ,etc, vids,tutorials,forum about this?
How I earn XMR by sell stuff on Internet? Thanks.
>>5599 I'd launch tails. download the wallet for linux and run. recover or load from a usb or other disk holding your keys mounted in tails..
I think talking about Monero-relevant FOSS projects would help with awareness of Monero itself. Talking up its tech, philosophy, and differences from other crypto is good, but the biggest stumbling block seems to be showing people ways to use/earn it. https://github.com/tipxmr/tipxmr/ >For livestream tipping. Would be useful for streamers that won't or can't use anything tied to payment processors (camgirls, drawfags) https://github.com/haveno-dex/haveno >WIP P2P exchange in the fashion of Bisq, but built on Monero >>5345 >>7392 https://github.com/monero-integrations/monerowp https://github.com/xmrsale/xmrSale Might be useful
could a kind anon pls explain what prevents the government from hijacking moneros infrastructure like they did with tor? i understand it is technically possible to send monero privately between two computers you control, but is that useful if feds compromise the majority of the network?
>>7911 He who controls the hardware controls the software. Always. There is no code solution to the infrastructure problem.
>>8050 agree, how useful is your private anonymous internet money if globohomo simply blocks your internet access until you doxx youself? were not there yet but they absolutely can enforce that. >but i can self host monero services on my local private network! if you can only trade your monero locally then whats the point? just get physical silver/gold/food/ammo/water/whatever at that point
>>3619 literal poorfag understanding of internet money
>>4256 why would you ever need to use a mixer with monero retard
