I was curious what claims about Monero you thought specifically were defensible. Thanks for the clarification.

  1. maximizes privacy
  2. prevents third parties from committing human rights violations
  3. stops rent seeking
  4. financial autonomy to the downtrodden
  5. refuge of last resort

How does Monero (1) maximize privacy between people who can’t spend crypto directly and need to convert it to and from their national currency? How do you think this scheme would work in a privacy preserving way? We’re talking about a non-tech savvy undocumented worker in the US playing the role of Alice, and Bob is his subsistence farmer wife in rural Mexico.

Please make a ask post in !monero@monero.town for the details

You have demonstrated yourself to not be a good faith conversationalist, and I don’t have the energy to engage with you at scale. However, I have faith the good people of lemmy will pitch in, especially the XMR community.

The only reason we are here is you have asserted Monero is a scam, we have since agreed that Monero does not have a known leak, so I’m no longer concerned about the “scam” aspect as far as leaks go and have no further interest in this discussion with you.

According to your definition, casinos and online gambling isn’t a scam, because what they do is well-defined. If I use ‘scam’ to mean a reliable way for the downtrodden to become even more downtrodden, or ‘bitcoin’ as a shorthand for cryptocurrency, telling me I’m wrong because you have a different definition of those words is not an impressive rhetorical feat. And you claim I’m the bad faith actor in this conversation.

And as soon as you were challenged about statements you made on-topic, you disappear. I welcome your retreat. I would choose not to have more conversations with people like you.

Holy shit, your replies made me lose brain cells.

OP’s IQ in the negative

Man, OP is some kinda non-sequitur savant. You were more than fair in your attempts to engage with his disjointed and ephemeral “arguments”
