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.

>>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

>>17344 BTC is a ponzi scheme that is waiting for its tragic end. Taking into account that as many as 86% of the coins never have been traded, which means some speculators have the upper hand to crash the value any time they want. Considering the huge amount of money involved, the custodians are not next door people at all, but institutional and governmental actors pre-positioned to cause political and economic chaos. Common sense says to look for alternatives backed by real tangible goods instead of fiat.
Anonymous 03/13/2025 (Thu) 18:20:49 No. 17352
>>17344 Altcoins are pegged to bitcoin which in turn is pegged to the stock market. When one goes down they all go down. The crypto and blockchain tech is too much in its infancy to make greater assumptions like that. Monero's greatest asset is its anonymity technology which isn't just for cybercriminals or schizos, in the future when blockchain transactions are commonplace in business there's the problem that many of them can be publicly scanned which can turn into industrial espionage, and monero can solve that

>>4265 >>4643 >>5245 Almost every coin suggesting to be better than Monero has been a scam of one type or another, or otherwise compromised in ways Monero is not (ie massive premines, algos that give ASIC or similar benefits, supernodes and other sorts of faggotry, smart contract bullshit which gets in the way of coin/currency focus etc). I've not found any over the years that seem worthwhile and that's before we get into shit like devs literally stealing from commonly used wallets and miners or faux setup forks for rugpulls etc.

I don't invest in crypto. I use Monero as currency. No other coin is usable as actual money.
Anonymous 04/19/2025 (Sat) 09:23:13 No. 18155
>>18010 It doesn't even matter if other privacy coins are technically better, monero is the one people actually use and unless it gets compromised that won't change.

>>18142 Monero is the only crypto I ever recommend anyone to ever use, specifically because it's terrible as an investment. The price fluctuates too frequently primarily due to its usage as an actual currency, and not a speculative vehicle.

xmr is fine and so are zerocoin/zerohash, it reduces the need to mix, but some extra mixing to increase your anonymity can't be harmful, same as behind 7 proxies meme
Anonymous 04/20/2025 (Sun) 13:52:45 No. 18446
Monero's great but lacks ways to acquire it. Where's the ad networks? The job boards? Donation systems that take normie coins and pay out xmr? MMOs like SL and Roblox but using it as currency instead? If these things even exist, they're obscure as fuck, undermining the utility of monero as a currency.
Anonymous 04/20/2025 (Sun) 15:38:44 No. 18466
>>18446 There's been a concerted effort to delist and suppress it everywhere. It's not that it can't be used for the things you mention but it's been made almost impossible, especially for normalfags, to even acquire xmr so it's a non starter until someone finds a way to make it easy to buy with fiat again. It's actual use cases right now and the reason it won't die for the foreseeable future is total adoption on darknet markets.
Anonymous 04/20/2025 (Sun) 15:43:09 No. 18467
I'd also like to point out that when BTC was actually being used for things, rather than just being held or traded it was also inaccessible to normalfags

Monero assisted imageboards, forums, blog comment segments wen? I think Monero micropayments can be utilized as a way to fight against spam and low quality posts, especially for blog comments sections. One should be easily able to add micropayment per comment to the following blog engine for example: https://wingolog.org/projects/tekuti Bonus points for making the comments section mimicking an imageboard environment with replies and post numbers.

>>19065 >>19069 you dont understand. the tiny inflation enables faster transactions https://monero.stackexchange.com/a/13452 >It’s also extremely important to make it clear that Monero’s supply is pre-defined, verified and enforced via consensus, and entirely predictable, just like Bitcoin’s – you can know the inflation rate and totaly supply at any point in the future without doubts. This tail emission enables two key features in Monero > A lower bound of network security forever (miners will always be able to rely on 0.6XMR per block, no matter the fee market) A dynamic block size (Monero’s blocks can grow/shrink to adapt to short-term increases in usage, with a penalty to mining rewards during these times).
