I2P?

A true private blockchain with a capped supply is a recipe for disaster IMO. considering the tokens right now are dirt cheap, anyone with a spare 10000$ can easily dry up the liquidity and pump the prices, immediately profiting; because you cant pinpoint it down to one whale like you can with a transparent ledger, such volatile downright illegal market manipulation will simply go undetected.

Onramp gets harder and harder

Thanks for informing me, i read through the logs; looks like there are mixed oppinions regarding my concerns, but i am glad that there are others that see it as a potential issue as well, I am confident that eventually a solution can be found that fixes the privacy issue without sacrificing functionality.

Google has been showing me ‘suspicious activity from your computer’ Captcha lately Is there a way I can scan my device for my peace of mind(not talking about clamAV) a manual inspection, what are the signs that something is wrong?

What kind of threat model makes Linux not secure? (Genuinely curious, I daily drive Fedora and use Flatpaks for sandboxing)

what I am really concerned about(an unfortunate nature of the public ledger) is coins being tainted, they were also pretty vague on any sort of launch window which I understand, I don’t really hope for Monero to moon(Its not supposed to be) but I wonder if the native XMR coin could be used in a psuedo-layer 2 like network, that generates interest by leveraging POS coins(sort of like fractional banking)

thanks, though I might hold out on that for a month or two as I am quite busy right now(can you please make them aware of my concerns in my stead?)

Same, though I have found success in doing odd jobs around the internet and earning crypto that way(though they are few and far between), I then simply swap to XMR.

Shame, during the great Fediverse migration, I expected there would be more people in Monero specific spaces as the concept of the fediverse in general aligns so well with the values behind Monero, unfortunately it seems it has just become a bubble of ideologies. I expected there would sort of be a chatter surrounding the 10th anniversary, I guess most people in the community have ‘settled’ and are done with Monero activism and I am the one who is late.

Hung around with the Serai people(digitally) near the start of the bullrun, as I understand they plan to launch their own native coin(which I have some reservations against), and don’t really have a focus on privacy(at least right now)

the verification process involved revealing an existing and established social media profile, I had none(at least none that wouldn’t pose a huge OpSec risk) and I am currently broke(XMR) to justify sending money for a signup(I will do it eventually, I am not stingy and am willing to contribute to a cause I support)

what governments force you is outside of the scope of monero yes it is but at the same time it isn’t; Monero’s growth and adoption, depends on the way it is handled by legislature, the likely outcome of my dystopian reality is relisting(but at what cost, I rather have it be banned); It is as I said ‘the view keys is equivalent to Handing a silver-platter to the Government and by extension analysis companies’ I agree they are legitimately useful but they have the capacity to be Abused and used for surveillance.

PS. Is there a way I can voice my concerns directly to the development team currently working on Seraphis?

There is an official list

The subr*ddit is pretty active, but lately the posts there feel ‘suppressed’ and sorta just weird.

This what i am trying to say, the only option being a limited view key is way better(Sorry if my rants sound preachy, but this just sort a popped in my head and is making me utterly miserable)

This is not really a problem. You could just send the funds to another wallet and say the outgoing transactions were to pay for goods and services. Businesses would be the first to be forced to declare their view keys, Assuming that; If your transaction doesn’t show up on their system they have probable cause to suspect you, It would be equivalent to using Tornado cash directly from your CEX wallet; Call me paranoid but this neat feature has huge potential to be abused, not just from governments but essentially all businesses.

If you have a “boating accident” you would most likely lose all your keys, including the view keys. :)

Not plausible when presently i can just say “What Monero? 🤷‍♂️”

PS. The state has no right to directly tax income as this is derived from an even exchange of labor for currency, there is no profit. If you are profiting from the labor of others then a tax claim can be made.

Your state is different than my state

I wish there were more users on this instance or Lemmy in general, Can some one please Crosspost this post to the subr*ddit, I would like to hear their thoughts about it as well, all my accounts have been shadow-banned to the depths of tartarus. PS: Mentioning Lemmy or the Fediverse gets you shadow-banned, as well as having any direct links in the post; Try typing it as ‘monerodottown’
