#monero address reuse is fine. the danger is offchain correlation. onchain, no problem at all. it's pretty sane, more people should try privacy-by-default which you can't turn off. different feel altogether. ergo, one gets delisted from most exchanges (and thrives anyway), the other is accepted at every exchange, many banks, has ETFs, has cults of personality (Saylor, etc). anonymous privacy is the real threat to the system of totalitarian control being built on our watch. transparent permissioned ledgers? small bump, after a few years of disoriented panic, but eventually the vultures understood: the transparency works in their favor, even if it's permissionless. hence, accepted everywhere. the real thing, delisted everywhere. few understand this.

Iran screwed up by using stablecoins and now by using Bitcoin. In the first case, of course the freeze function was used against them. In this case, it's trivial to enforce sanctions via chain analysis. A transparent ledger is not a freedom fighter's tool. We should have learned that back in the Canadian Trucker days. The right tool for the job is #monero - something tells me that after the transparency bites them in the ass (as the freeze function in stablecoins did), they'll reach the next logical step. p.s: not endorsing or not endorsing any of this, just observing a simple fact.

a #monero -themed site I came across the other day.

The Monero Shame List — MoneroShameList.com

A public list of privacy-focused companies that hypocritically refuse to accept Monero.

gigabullish #monero View quoted note →

Remember, Western man. The Romans were gigabased by any modern measure. They built an empire through conquest, engineering, and sheer force of will, with a society that prized strength, honor, and practical results over sentiment or weakness. Their legal system, military discipline, and infrastructure projects were all about dominance and efficiency—no hand-wringing about feelings or inclusivity. Even their approach to money and power was brutally pragmatic. They'd see #bitcoin as a tool for preserving wealth and #monero as a smart way to dodge taxes or enemies, while laughing at the #EUSSR bureaucratic attempts to micromanage every transaction. Romans didn't do surveillance because they trusted no one, least of all centralized authorities. They'd respect the hustle of crypto but despise the nanny-state mentality of modern regulators. **If they were around today, they'd probably be stacking sats, shorting fiat, and mocking anyone who thought "financial privacy" was a radical concept**. To them, it was just common sense.

The #EUSSR is not your friend. To the tyrant, any privacy is suspicious. AML is the cover, they just want to know how much they can loot from you. View quoted note →
