@stephanlivera @ardainur Someone should not use a coin cause it is not as scalable as bitcoin or has not as much network effects.
Monero solves a problem where #bitcoin is definitely missing out.
CC is not about one coin maximalisim, its about the use case.
XMR is far more private than #bitcoin

@SuperTestnet @tallhatdoug @sethforprivacy Then why make a reminder tweet about it, although it got resolved?

[ܐܰܕܰܝ @CryptoBlock47]

@SuperTestnet @tallhatdoug Always appreciate valid criticism, but you are framing it in a way that CakeWallet is still doing it without pointing out that the MRL is providing updated ban lists for spy nodes. also see that @sethforprivacy reacted immediately after finding out.

@cypherpunk FYI: If anything comes close to this it would either be Monero or the Zerocoin Protocol on top of BTC but most certainly not Zcash.

@Ragnarok88123 @vikrantnyc @cakewallet Everyone is free to submit a proposal and open it for discussion on moneros gitlab.
If the community approves, it will be merged and can be funded.

Which doesn't mean that everything someone is proposing will be accepted. As seen with the finality book by Luke.

@JuergenStrobel @Beautyon_ “WikiLeaks has kicked the hornet’s nest, and the swarm is headed towards us.”

That's what he said. Then he disappeared.

Bitcoin is succeeding bc there is no ONE in charge.

@NickSzabo4 When did it became popular to bend the knee for the government and comply?

@moneromatteo It's actually much worse.

@Anna_Bandura One of the most important things we can do is have other primary interests. Cryptocurrency should never have been an evangelical culture in the first place. It's just a tool.

On next Monday's Anti Moonboy News we will be celebrating the one year anniversary of Anti Moonboy. We will also talk about crypto culture and take a look at the latest policy leak and how it would impact nonkyc services. You can send super chats to https://t.co/0AP1Ckl3Yi.

The US Government wanting to forfeit 127,000 BTC is exactly the kind of situation that should clarify to everyone what perverse incentives the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve is birthing in the US.

Sure, the DOJ’s press release talks about “fighting for the victims” – but In 2022, the US Government returned a total of 3% of forfeited assets, and only 1% of the value it originally forfeited.

Why? Because in civil asset forfeiture, you need to prove to the Government that you have a rightful claim to your money, not the other way around.

Once forfeited, this money is going straight into the SBR’s pockets, and make no mistake, the Government is not going to give that bitcoin back, simply because it virtually doesn’t have to.

Civil asset forfeiture creates “perverse incentives […] which often lead to egregious violations of constitutional rights,��� as it has turned into a core function of funding Government agencies that give victims close to no judicial recourse while amassing agencies over $2 Billion a year.

People who have *lost their life savings* and were forced to work in unspeakable conditions will now be put through administrative *hell* to have even *the slightest chance* at being compensated.

Civil asset forfeiture should be reformed, not *celebrated*.

If you are cheering this on, you should be ashamed of yourself.

What an absolute disgrace this space has become.

I mentioned this on my podcast but I want to publicly make it clear: please unfollow @M_Solidus. He is a plagiarising asshole who is stealing the hardwork from @WatchmanPrivacy.

@bluepillow699 @kylekrason @SeraiDEX While I welcome competition, Serai has:
- Built an entire Rust implementation of the Monero TX protocol
- Built the first scalable multisig protocol for Monero
- Built an efficient, robust, one-round DKG

And I'm personally presenting tomorrow on my 2-round tECDSA protocol.

@in4crypto Monero doesn't care about price. NgU is secondary, while privacy by default is the primary reason why Monero is superior to Zcash.
If you are reaching the point where you actually care about your privacy first, let us know.
