Think about it... governments want to be able to track transactions to prevent money laundering and determine how much you owe them in taxes. Guess what coins will be the first to die when regs come in? Privacy coins.

No government wants their citizens making illegal transactions, anything under the books. They will ban them and they’ll plummet to $0.

Monero (XMR) will most likely seek protection and make a permanent agreement with a country (most likely one possessing veto power at the UN security council) so that both Monero's interests and that country's interests matches.

Monero (XMR) will then implant itself in that nation and become a mega corporation of that country (defending and representing its interests). That nation will most likely designate a special zone that is commonly known as a "tax haven" where Monero will set up its headquarters and operate.

To any one who doubts me, shadow markets account at least for 22.67% of world GDP.

Guess what sectors of the economy require privacy through law. Actually I'll just tell you. It's the health care industry, finance industry, housing industry, and the legal industry. Those sectors are about one half of the market. So privacy coins are required by law for half the economy. So they will never die. They will probably move towards privacy protocols with completely public blockchains (DASH and ZCoin) rather than using ring signatures or zk-snarks, but privacy coins are here to stay.

OP here, you guys are going to get fucking ROCKED in the next few months. The SEC just required exchanges to register with them. It’s only a matter of time till they crack down on the illegal aspects of crypto. Privacy coins will simply not be legal. I don’t know how else to convey that.

If the government bans it, exchanges catering to Americans will not be allowed to offer it for trading. Huge portions of the market will be wiped away, and the government CAN enforce it very easily.

you know why PrivacyCoins cant be on coinbase gemini bitstamp, or other big exchanges that are used for eg.. CryptoCreadit Cards.

Because its not allowed to support illegal activities if you are rolling a serious business, buy supporting something that aim to be used to prevent tracking,.. thats how it is.


We had the same disscussion with Bitcoin, there are some great branches//projects that are ready to implement full privacy with stealth wallets, hidden transactions etc.

> But this will slow down adoption by almost 80% when not killing it at all, because its against general security laws.
Something like Monero will survive forever, as one of the top10 coins, but it wouldnt be possible to seriously pay for stuff with it... I know I know - you can pay with XMR already at some online stores.
But gov just dont care now, because XMR isnt big with its 10k tx per day. But when it comes to merchant processing and payment options a gov can forbid the use of such coins by LAW

I agree. I'm actually surprised there aren't more XMR pairings out there on the major exchanges but the way Monero's volume has been picking up lately I wouldn't be surprised if we start seeing people ask for them.

The issue that I see with exchanges pushing Monero are twofold. One, the fees for moving Monero around are still relatively high although this should improve a bit in the future with bulletproofs. The second problem, which gets a little bit more to the heart of the matter, is that I think centralized exchanges like Coinbase and Poloniex, as well as exchanges with dreams of mainstream adoption like COSS, would have a little bit of an identity crisis featuring Monero. Decentralized exchanges would solve all of that and give Monero some room to grow.

I am trying to be open minded and trying to understand this meme but still not seeing the comparison,
Take drugs, the grower/manufacturer,middle man and the dealer all have an incentive to break the law to sell drugs and profit.
The money and motive to produce and sell drugs comes from the demand of the user.
Drugs have real value, to a junkie there is nothing more valuable then there drug of choice. Other then making gains or transferring money/alternative banking crypto provides a user with little real benefit.
People are in crypto to make money, very few actually use it or care about it.

If privacy coin become illegal what incentive would any one have to use them other then dark net stuff?

Yes indeed - cryptos are interesting for governments only when they are turned into fiat (taxable) or used for transactions (illicit or legal)

At least in the EU, directive 2015/849 will effectively force all exchanges and similar obliged entities to gather extensive user data report and report all one-time or cumulative transactions in excess of 10.000e. Practically this means that all EU exchanges and exchanges that operate in EU are obliged to provide government agencies data that will expose who much a certain individual has bough/sold crypto. Oh and lets not forget that this also obliges banks to report any transaction in excess of 10.000e (also applies for cumulative transactions).

As long as people buy/sell crypto for fiat gains, which 99% people do, it does not matter if the crypto is "private".

Just the 2 cents of a lawyer.
