John Bush may not have gotten the memo that Bitcoin is not worth our time, but I think he's onto Monero and most certainly has kept up with what the US government is doing with crypto. Definitely worth a listen.

Good article talking about privacy crypto. Basically, I look at this as positive when anyone discusses privacy in a public forum, since most have completely conceded their rights to privacy in today's society.

    Is anyone watching the price of Monero today?

    Can anyone think of a catalyst for this pump in price?

  • Move the bulk of your wealth out of stock markets, IRA's, and 401k's and into precious metals like gold and silver. The state will always be evil, but a broke state is less evil. As entire societies move assets out of markets into physical precious metals, you contribute to the destruction of all fiat currencies globally. Think about it, if nobody accepted the USD, how long would the military industrial complex (MIC) last? Honest, gold and silver backed money provides a healthy constraint on the voracious appetite for making war by the MIC.

    Monero may thrive as a primary store of wealth one day, but while the FINCEN machine is alive and well, it will remain under threat. Gold and silver do not suffer the same level of oppression from regulatory authorities, so it is a safer way to exit the fiat system presently with the bulk of your wealth.

  • Even if you're ignorant to the evils of your master, you're still complicit. Ignorance is NOT a defense, especially when there is so much evidence of governments deliberately causing harm to it's citizens!

  • The silver academy is a sub-stack that covers what happens in silver. It's readers are mostly precious metals collectors. They do not sell any precious metals and receive no proceeds from any sale resulting from you reading this article. You could have actually read and researched this yourself, but like most people, you don't take the time to actually read things through. Read thoughtfully, carefully, don't scan over and fire out a response before you understand the validity of sources cited.

  • Funny, flatpak works on MX, but it kills performance. I launch any flatpak program and it's literally up to five minutes to launch. After re-imaging and using AppImages instead, it's blazing fast. There must be something about the way MX implements flatpaks that screws the pooch.

  • I've bounced around alot, have numerous distributions on my Proxmox Hypervisor, but my favorite daily driver, for a really old computer, is ( MX Linux ) I've twice tried other distros to see if I could improve upon the stability and performance, as well as the very convenient availability of a feature rich KDE Desktop environment, and I came back to MX twice now. When I get a new fast computer, I'll switch to Qubes OS, for it's built-in hypervisor and security/privacy and isolation features, but until then, I'll stick with MX.

    IMHO, there are excellent reasons why MX ranks highest. I think it's original roots in AntiX with the elimination of systemd has afforded it a substantial advantage over stock-standard Debian, my last daily driver which always had performance issues. With MX, on same hardware, system lock ups are far less frequent when the system is overtaxed.

  • This is the first I've seen of this. We're talking about which redesign before the obvious discussion that we should have, "whether" the site needs a redesign. I'm open to changes if someone can justify them with a requirements change. Let's first discuss current requirements, whether the current site meets those requirements, then decide if we want to change those requirements. From a consumer of the website, the current site meets all the requirements for it's current mission. Thoughts??

  • I discourage the implementation of AppImage creation because it's a cheap and dirty way to tick the box for Linux compatibility, yet this does not translate into usability for the Linux user. Some cons to this half-baked shortcut IMHO are:

    • packages don't update with operating system updates using native package managers like apt or yum so updates are clumsy and in some cases have broken my system.
    • packages don't integrate with operating system menu hierarchy.
    • it can tend to circumvent the quality controls inherent in the package introduction processes of these distributions, therefore reducing it's overall reliability as a tool. (it's also a great way to sneak malicious code on to your machine, btw)

    What you end up with is a broken app, which may not break your system entirely at first. Any of those that continue to attempt to correct these broken apps can either get lucky and fix the app, or make things worse and really break the Operating System. It is for these reasons I urge the developer community to avoid using snap, AppImage, or Flatpak and stick to releasing binaries for specific distributions like .deb or .rpm.

    I'd rather wait a year longer for it than have you check off your "Linux compatibility" box and never look at it again.

    I'm not a programmer, so if you find any statements factually incorrect, I'll beg your forgiveness in advance and ask that you don't bite my head off in your reply, just politely point out and correct factual misstatements and save your energy for writing code for binary installation package files like .deb or .rpm.

    Sincerely,

    Stocks Dropped 89% - Will It Happen Again? | Alasdair Macleod

    Before you say this is off topic, fast forward to 41:00, where Alasdair talks about fungibility in a very sensible and educational way. Stopping shy of mentioning Monero, he gives the impression that all crypto is like Bitcoin and has the drawbacks associated with BTC. Now, how do we correct these influencers so they don't tar all crypto's with the same brush as Bitcoin? Ideas, feedback?

  • It's because the Khazarian bankers are behind Proton, as deep state as it gets.

  • The site(s) should operate like Nodes in a peer to peer network over TOR, where it is impossible to trace it back. We need strong enough technology where bravery is not required, the same way that Monero has been designed, for a hostile environment.

  • My problem with all the outreach to the crypto community is that none of the motives support the termination of centralized fiat currencies. Name me one problem on this earth that decentralization can't improve upon.

    Got Silver?

    Chart shows silver priced in Monero. Note that it's hit a recent low, meaning it takes less Monero to buy the same amount of silver. Timing is looking good for rebalancing or if you suspect grid down scenarios playing out as the election approaches.

  • New Trump is more enslaved to the central bankers than ever before. Trump's video shows after he was "shot", reaching up to his ear. As he pulls his hand away from his ear, no blood. The he went down and SS covered him up, then he comes up with blood, or something red, dripping down his ear. Coincidence?? See Bondslaves Biblical. The cabal loves their symbology, could this be why suddenly, the winds have shifted for Trump?

  • They will trample your God given rights to make enforcement as convenient as possible rather than respecting individual liberties, every time. This erosion of the protection of our rights must be reversed or we can only expect revolution. Let's hope Europe sets the example for liberty that us Americans seem to have forgotten, but I'm not holding my breath.

  • Stay away, please. Proton is based in Switzerland, the home of the WEF, the BIS, and other evil central banker affiliated globalists organizations. Monero should not touch this with a ten foot pole.

  • Off topic. Not once was Monero mentioned. Good info, wrong forum to post on imho.

  • What about the Monero community working with the manufacturers on PoS terminals, providing coding assistance to embed nodes and wallets into them and provide the training to retailers willing to participate in pilot programs? I admit I don't understand the new US laws on crypto and if this might presently be illegal.

    Another idea is to create a legal fund to defend those prosecuted by any of these crypto related regulations. Establish precedence in the courts, making it more difficult to prosecute the free exercise of trade thru crypto and furthering privacy protections for private transactions.

    As a community, we should all abandon centralized servers and migrate to decentralized solutions. I'd support any decentralized system supporting privacy and anonymity, something that asks no personally identifying information such as phone number or email address. Something like Bastyon or Brighteon.io . Some attributes are below:

    • This solution is directly on a blockchain, has no corporation behind it, much like Monero.
    • Plus it's got many of the features that Twitter or Lemmy has, we can set up private or public groups and memberships.
    • It supports direct, private messaging, as well as voice and video chat.
    • No email address or phone number is required, so you can remain as anonymous as you choose.
    • There's already a strong group of liberty-minded individuals. While they aren't all crypto-savvy, they are predisposed to solutions benefiting privacy.
    • Adequate settings to block offensive speech, only con
