@freedomtools Finally? Like, what took them so long?

Except the need for private transactions is never going away. And there is no better solution anywhere on the horizon.

It's like a scare campaign against closing the bathroom stall door. GLWT.

@magicbeergut @hetzlemmingsworld Minimum 50 years, possibly never. If you believe the director of the Institute for Quantum Information and Matter.

@beeng IANAL, but I'm pretty sure that "enabling the use of privacy coins" has not been the charge in any US case.

"Money Laundering" is the charge.

And this is why WE NEED DEXES, and why I do what I can to support my preferred project (Haveno)

@mister_monster @fullmetalScience Consider standing up a Haveno test node!

@n3m37h @GregorTacTac number of transactions is largely unrelated to number of miners

@tusker @WarmApplePieShrek There is no crypto that is a threat to Fiat.

Monero is a direct threat to *surveillance*

@stealths I think Monero is the best available Internet Currency.

Speculating on currency is way, way outside my specialization and is not of personal interest.

As a software engineer, designing and deploying a currency that is conformant with the design principles of the Internet... is exactly my specialization and interest.

@stealths @User1 I don’t think any of us running nodes are going to stop because of what any particular corporation decides. We’re not running nodes to earn money.

@RealBot what a vapid take

No you don’t need smart contracts to pay someone. You just pay.

@RealBot it’s called being currency

Just that

Nothing else

@RealBot @mister_monster How about the “service” of being a trustless censorship-resistant privacy-respecting currency?

That seems like a usecase in itself that doesn’t require anything more.
