Previous thread >>29118238

Welcome to the Monero General, dedicated to the discussion of the world's leading decentralized p2p privacy cryptocurrency!

Monero is secure, low-fee, and borderless, meaning users can send XMR around the globe despite corrupt governments or broken financial systems. Innovative privacy features such as Ring Signatures, Stealth Addresses, and Ring CT (hidden tx amounts) ensure that Monero's blockchain is obfuscated -- the financial history of all Monero users is encrypted from the prying eyes of adversaries on a public blockchain, with transactions being visible only by a Monero user willingly providing a view key for a specific transaction.

Monero has also improved upon the scaling downsides of current popular cryptos. To avoid high fees, dynamic block size ensures that the size of the blocks will increase as the amount of txs increases. Further, the mining network algorithm RandomX establishes that anybody with a CPU can participate in mining, preventing the ASIC miner domination that creates a high barrier of entry. Lastly, the mining network will be preserved by Tail Emission -- instead of the block reward falling to zero like with Bitcoin, the block reward will gradually approach 0.6 XMR in May 2022, where it will forever stay. This constant linear inflation means the inflation rate will asymptotically go to zero while continuing to provide an incentive to miners to maintain the network.

If you still have questions, feel free to ask and a MoneroChad will be with you shortly.

Agreed, the DNM adoption is the only real world experience I have, in fact it’s what got me into crypto.
Bitcoin is nearly completely phased out now, especially after darkmarket was busted.
It’s also nice to see that many DNM users are putting 2+2 together and putting a little monero aside “in case this is the next bitcoin”. With all the recent pumps I expect most vendors are holding off converting to fiat as well.

Monero works the same whether it's $1 or $10K, just ask the darknet crowd.

Thus, Monero promotes itself by being the best and only viable privacy coin around, those that need it will use it regardless of price, its just an added benefit that increasing demand will gradually drive the price up.

I think it'll be years for normies to really wake up to Monero
Right now if you're in on Monero, you either know your cryptocurrencies properly, you got into it through darknet markets, or you're doing some other illegal shit and swapping your other currencies to Monero to keep your profits safe (some huge amount of scams end up converting profits to Monero apparently).
Normies go into bitcoin because it's a big name, and they never bother to use it so they don't even understand how it works. Only some of them ever understand that Monero is what they think BTC is.
Just an anecdote, in 2016 or 2017 I noticed government tax forms or customs forms (can't remember which) were asking specifically whether you held Monero. They asked about crypto, and specifically gave BTC and XMR as examples, nothing else. This was years back. So this is the real deal and normies are just too retarded to understand BTC let alone XMR.

Ethereum has a high chance of not working in the end or people using something, this is very high risk. Deserved allocation: 0%.
Bitcoin is not money and it sucks at being gold because it's not fungible. That being said, Bitcoin IS the new fucking shiny thing that everyone wants. It's almost a question of virtue signaling now. Because of that it has and will always have some value. Deserved allocation: 1-20%.

Both the May 2022 tail emmission and atomic swap implementation are going to do fuck all to the price except for maybe sell the news.

There is no rational reasoning for why either would increase valuation. XMR has no chance of being actually banned so atomic swap accomplishes nothing and adds nothing of value except maybe the peace of mind of knowing nothing can stop XMR from a legislative angle even though it was never really a threat.

Tail emmission being reached won't even be a concrete change. It's a gradually lowering block reward that just happens to reach 0.6 in may 2022. So what?

While I tend to agree, someone mentioned a few days ago the possibility that some of the old school bitcoin whales from >2010 are waiting for something like monero atomic swaps to be available to actually exchange the coins. It is true that almost all old wallets are under active surveillance, if not only by the fucking twitter account whale_alert that is monitoring a bunch of blockchains and tweeting to half a million people anytime someone moves a high amount of money. If there really is or are a couple whales waiting for this, it would mean a dump of bitcoin for xmr which will make xmr increase its valuation in btc.

A 51% attack can't take down the system. It can only change the consensus mechanism which could be undone by a rollback afterwards. Taking down the network is like taking down torrents.
