Welcome to XMR General, dedicated to the discussion of the world's leading privacy-coin!

Because Monero is secure, low-fee, and borderless, people can easily send money despite corrupt and broken governments or banks. This provides economic empowerment of individuals in oppressive countries or depressed economies.

Private financial history protects consumers and companies from price manipulation, supply chain exploitation, economic discrimination, or the like. Monero is the only cryptocurrency that has the features to serve as completely fungible, decentralized, electronic cash.

If you're new, feel free to ask any questions you like and a Monero Chad will be with you shortly.

Birb haters have no place here.

I'm as American as the Atom Bomb, and biz's monero community is from all the fuck over the world (summoning based LebAnon).

Calling XMR a scam is like calling water dry. The IRS put a bounty (which is as yet unclaimed) on monero's head because it works exactly as advertised.

The hacker or company who could break monero world instantly gain fame and permanent gainful employment, not to mention that IRS money, yet nobody has.

^Inb4 cyphertrace, they claimed to have done it to try to get technologically illiterate boomer government money, got fuckin humiliated, and didn't get shit for a reward from the IRS.

In conclusion, you're a faggot who's probably FUDing because he's too poor to add more to his sack. Go get some money, ya broke bitch.

This coin is so fucking buggy. I bought some on localmonero and sent it to my Exodus wallet address. A few hours later XMR is still nowhere to be found. Exodus support tells me to rescan the whole blockchain which is going to take a day during which I can’t use my XMR. I hope coins will be there at least and not disappeared in the ether. I can’t wait for Litecoin to release nimblewimble so I can buy on darknet without using this monero piece of crap.

Monero is just an overpriced fork of bytecoin that can be tracked, use 0xMonero. It's account based so it can't be blacklisted, has built in privacy features, and works with Ethereum smart contracts.

As long as you sent it to the correct address on exodus you shouldn't have an issue with recovering them eventually, but it's a pain that its taking the extra time. I haven't used Exodus personally, but other anons in the thread might have more specific insight. Regardless, sorry to hear you're going through that. Crypto is a harsh mistress and i think most of us have had our headaches. I remember sending some btc to the wrong address in the early days and losing it forever.

The desktop gui wallet with a full blockchain download is the most secure option available anywhere in terms of privacy, but cakewallet is lightweight and still extremely secure alternative. CW is perfect if you're just buying monero to spend or store short term. If you're looking for long term storage and optimum security, an external hard drive can be had relatively cheap that will handle your storage needs for the whole enchilada.

GL and let us know if you have any other issues!

Relax my friend. I researched and apparently it takes a lot of time to scan the blockchain on Exodus. They're not that bad apparently implemented XMR sub-addresses recently. Scan it and press on XMR, check the syncing progress and use the latest version.

Remember there's an ongoing attack on our XMR network.

Imagine a blockchain that says it's private but isn't.
... that has wallets that don't work
... that has a majority of nodes that are malicious
... that is tracked by the government and ciphertrace
... that has fake branded wallets
... that has malware on it's website
... that has the majority of hashrate contributed by cryptojacker malware and bots
... that has the majority of hashrate in one pool that can double spend and bring the entire blockchain down at any time
... that you cannot properly use without running a full node and using a command line interface

Monero isn't buggy. You are using a third party wallet instead of the Gui.
>1) I don’t have space on my computer to store the monero blockchain
You don't have to install the blockchain. You can simply connect to a remote node when using the Gui. go here: https://www.getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/remote_node_gui.html
>I tried using MyMonero wallet and these greedy fuckers asked me to “donate” 0.1XMR so I can see the transaction history.
Yeah because you are restoring a different wallet and it takes resources to scan because of lazy people like you who don't do research and learn how to connect to a remote node
> can’t wait for Litecoin to release nimblewimble so I can buy on darknet without using this monero piece of crap.

I sort of agree.
The correct recommendation however for somebody is to download the Gui/Cli. If they don't want to download the blockchain, they can connect to a remote daemon. The Gui/Cli are directly from the developers so its the most up to date and has all the features that you would ever need, and because it is noncentralized you know that what you are getting is safe.
Guarda may be a legitimate option, but it is closed source and relatively knew. So I don't want to recommend wallets that could possibly exit scam or really suck. If your experience with it is great than perhaps it is a good recommendation.
The OP should also be updated to show more options. The wallet section doesn't show enough options, and the exchange section is particularly bad (it doesn't even mention Binance or Kraken lol).
Still, the two best light wallets are Cake and My Monero based on their history with the community and how the code is available to review.
>>25249304
lol yeah it's actually really good that the network is improving.
i'm not so sure it is fireice however.
