If you are still using Desktop Microsoft Windows or Apple iOS you don't really care enough about your privacy
Good to observe some states taking the right steps to be more in control of their digital arena.

Notes (13)
People ask me often if Cake Wallet is good,
My answer: it is!, but, as a privacy middleware wallet, specially if you are transacting with Bitcoin.
Cake Wallet nostr:nprofile1qqs0cpan3knpzta7dn2wpyas2l976yyxjfc9rqt88uedt4qw4h4dfkgpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumt0wd68ytnsw43qpaj73l now supporting coin join and silent payments for Bitcoin has done a lot more than most Bitcoin wallets, only Samurai Wallet used to be that privacy oriented while it could.
Why?
No decent seed signer (HW) support. To the best of my knowledge as I write this post, it only supports Ledger, which is, probably the worst Seed Signer considering the scandals of that company.
Some think this is not a big deal, IMO, it is, hence only for pocket cash and as a middle ware while transacting, same used to be with Sanourai Wallet.
Now, while I have not seen plans to support Trezor or Cypherock or Tangem (all HW supporting XMR), there is a work in progress to support a very good one: Keystone. That would be a game changer, if that hapoens soon... EXCELLENT!
Inviting Peter S. to this conference again is puzzling, this individual is virtual "rat poison " for the Bitcoin Conference...
Remembering the good times when Bitcoin was pushed as the solution with the slogan "fix the money, fix the world"...
Nowadays, Blackrock and institutional money, as expected, taking over, it is only a matter of time now, full control over mining corporations, CEX supply, and the cherry of the pie... influence over core devs, this will be the ultimate test... tic toc tic toc
Glad we have Monero to keep the cypherpunks spirit alive.


Yo, AI, Why is Monero up today?
Monero (XMR) has seen a significant price increase, rising 13% over the past week to $294.16. This surge follows a technical pattern similar to its 2021 bull run, where the price climbed after a period of range-bound movement. Recent on-chain data shows an increase in trading volume and a positive Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) reading, suggesting continued buying pressure. Additionally, Monero's privacy features continue to attract interest, particularly in a landscape where demand for secure transactions is growing.
Recent news highlights Monero's potential to revisit the $300 mark, driven by a bullish technical setup and on-chain indicators. Analysts note that XMR's price has been volatile, with resistance levels at $230 and $235 and support at $200 and $193. The coin's privacy advantages and the increasing importance of secure transactions could drive further adoption, though regulatory pressures and enhanced blockchain analytics pose risks. Monero has also shown a long-term bullish shift with a golden crossover, breaking out of a consolidation pattern, which further supports a positive outlook.

Every time I observe the #Monero brotherhood engaged in a discussion with Bitcoin cultists I wonder why they do that. useless and a waste of time. I suggest, mute and block and ignore.I used to try helping years ago but realized that you can't have a logical discussion with a person that is in a Bitcoin cult, same with a Monero person that thinks that everything else is garbage. Not worth it discussing.
Most Bitcoiners use Monero and do not speak up, personally, I do not know any Bifcoiner that doesn't, there, we just need to add value to the community with knowledge articlea and build more.
I have a wish lfor Monero & Nostr:
1. A Nostr oriented to Monero for zaps with a market place and gift cards, maybe Cake Wallet can make it happen with a grant to some genius Dev that take Amethyst and fork it into a Nostr Client with a cool name. Privacy first
What you guys think about ZANO?
today I assisted a friend living in a country that blocks all IP addresses from all known VPN providers to install its own on a VPS paying with Monero on a non KYC provider.
In less than 30 minutes he was up and running with zero issues.
He is now a Monero student, amazed by the tech and the adoption in most online services he uses.
Pushed him to join Nostr as well, hopefully he will join the brotherhood soon

QT has been on going for some time, the monetary policies of the previous administration has caused high inflation, official numbers (have a laugh):
2020 1.2%
2021 4.7%
2022 8.0%
2023 4.1%
2024 2.9%
The truth is that most americans struggle to buy groceries, pay for fuel, utilities and services. Most friends I have asked have their own personal inflation calculated above 15%, so clearly the government numbers are rigged to show an inflation non representative of the real situation
Now, we should be looking at employment rates and inflation among other KPIs but... What for? Is all rigged numbers anyway...
so, if the numbers are rigged with questionable adjustments, the question is:
How do we forecast when the Fed will stop the QT and start the QE?
just follow the Fed and look for smoke signs out of the press releases and interviews?

most people in the small cosmos of social networks do not understand the typical monero enthusiast, they are currently cunfused and gaslighted with the current polarization trend, extreme left camp, extreme right camp, my crypto is the only good one... not much different to, my religion is the true one, my soccer team is the best one, and on and on and on
the #Monero brotherhood is conformed, in its majority by open minded libertarians,
and, we have one thing in common, we care about privacy and therefore we choose #Monero to transact, but, that does not mean that many of us do not invest in #Bitcoin, we are here in #Nostr after all, it doesn't take a rocket scientists to put the dots together...
Every time I read an answer to a post about Monero with the words "stay poor", I see how badly they misunderstand the Monero Brotherhood... Most of us understand #Bitcoin very well, many of us save in It, but do not engage in online commerce with it since it is not safe to do so.
Take your time and study it, you will understand why there are so many tech savvy individuals that only use Monero to transact.
If you haven't heard about Monero, take 5 and check this clip
Transact with privacy by default, no additional steps are needed, just install a wallet and use it, period

one the best parts of the Monero brotherhood is how quite is in the hood, no drama, Monero is doing its thing
