Thanks for a good video. Regarding the point at 4:30 "Or they refuse to sell to you until you decide to donate to a cause they like." Im sure you know this but for newer Monero enthusiasts I would like to point out that a transaction in Monero can be proven if you need to do so. You can obtain TX key for a transaction you have performed. If you send this together with the transaction ID and receiving address to a third party then a third party can confirm how many Monero the transaction was for and that it was sent to the receiving address.
This was a mildly depressing, but much needed awakening for me. Thanks, my man. I'm just tipping my feet into crypto and it's quite overwhelming.

One of the best reasons to get into monero is that it isn't mined on GPU. Probably the reason why nvidia is going to spend millions to convince the msm that it's bad once it starts to pick up attention.
@@osman4816 I know it's meant to be mined on desktops and is CPU based mining, other than that I have no clue. Probably some good resources floating around the web.
@@osman4816 at today's prices no but a couple years of Biden will get that price up there I personally value privacy more than gold so for me it's worth it, Monero will inevitably jump eventually once normies realize it's the only way to stay out of China's grip My 3900X and 2700 systems were already built for other uses and my electricity is included with rent so for me it will always be profitable
"I don't actually do anything illegal..." People that say that really have to wake up to the reality that everything that they do can be made illegal. And probably will.

Monero is fantastic, but Governments are already banning it from exchanges in certain countries. CashFusion on Bitcoin Cash gives you privacy, but isn't getting banned by governments yet.

It’s not really profitable is it? I’d only be getting ~$0.50 after a full 24 hours of mining, not including electricity costs. I’d rather do something else with my computer than have it mine all day.
@@supahx1421 While mining monero (or most other CPU-mined coins) you can do almost everything without noticing any difference. Just set the miner to low priority. And yes it is profitable for a lot of common CPUs at the moment.
Hey Mental, you've got the point, value of a crypto should be determined by its anonymity and the fees costs from orders. I also believe the same. That's why I am still away from those mainstream cryptos...
it costs like $0.03 to $0.05 for transaction fees VS $5-11 lately for bitcoin and ETH and MONERO scaling bulletproofs a few years ago made transaction fees where they are today suuuuuuuuure it would interesting seeing the market cap of monero grow to see how scability is when it's much larger, but tbh, it's not doin too bad.
Btc has a fixed supply and way higher hashrate which means having huge chain security that’s way big companies and people with big money feel save to store their value in btc. On the otherside, the privacy feature or monero can be useful to cut the links between btc transaction. For me basically monero is the best btc sidechain. Super love it.
It's still anonymous the owner of the wallet it never exposed that's why we don't know who the creator of bitcoin is eventho we know what wallet he uses

False. Not having a hard cap makes Monero better than Bitcoin as a currency. Would you use your bitcoins to buy a stupid car? No, ofc, you prefer to smell them in 10 years, because it's so rare. Bitcoin is gold. For Monero, it's different. It was created as a real currency.

it's called buying bitcoin from a no KYC exchange, and then if you really need you can use a full node to connect to your wallet and then use wallets which support coin control. If you really really need then there are wallets which support coinjoin, payjoins, etc. DYOR some more. Good advice on converting old lenovo thinkpads though with a windows OS and putting linux on it.
I was thinking about holding bigger/main amounts of wealth in xmr and then using a no kyc exchange to transfer small amounts into other coins or possibly usd (is that possible?) I like the idea of monero but its basically useless for transactions atm
If the gov makes their own ledger of legal and illegal bitcoin, there will be a mad dash for all the newly defined 'black market crypto' to exchange their holdings for monero, as monero will maintain more dark market value...will likely spike in price initially if this where to happen.
Can some one explain how Bitcoin is tracked? I thought bitcoins didn't have individual IDs? So how do you construct a full transaction history through changes in amounts in the ledger?
@Richard Vaughn Fair point, though crypto is not limited to only one currency that's limited by specialized hardware. I've gotten personal profit from mining various cryptos with used consumer hardware and got enough to pay back the entire card and electricity in about less than a year, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ though, lost my sanity. server fans strapped to consumer GPUs are stupid loud.
@Richard Vaughn dude you can mine other coins and trade for BTC lol we aren't mining straight BTC out here Research before commenting either IRL or online Don't reply go read shit If you reply it means you're wasting time replying instead of reading so just don't lol
3:40 what are your thoughts on monero's transaction times? From what i could find monero takes 1/5th as long as bitcoin (2 minutes per block instead of 10). Which is a lot faster, but is it fast enough?
Me and a classmate were talking about crypto mining and I suggested monero and he said "oh its that criminal crytpo, no I dont want to be thrown in jail"
But bitcoin was never intended to be private, the idea was to be as transparent as possible so you wouldn't have to trust anyone, everyting is verified, not trusted, as in banks. The fact that stupid people think that bitcoin was the go to coin for privacy says too much about their intelligence and level of information. Honestly I've had monero on sights for a while, but since I have no resources to buy, it'll have to wait a bit.
@@scjiwfoewmsxc that is good to know, don't know if it's known widely, but bitcoin has a protocol that tries to mitigate the privacy issue. Once you receive coins you use ona "address" (depending on the wallet), next time you receive coins another address is generated. Not the best implementation or solution, but it's something, having in mind that full privacy wasn't in the foundations of bitcoin per se.
Bitcoin was never private, but it used to be somewhat sudo-anonymous, it could be mined or bought privately. Thats almost impossible now with exchanges forcing you to use your real identity to buy it
@@archygrey9093 This. Even if it's hard to be private about the movements due to exchanges,there are a couple options, namely, buy from peers or exchanges like changenow or changelly, they have a minimum deposit of usd. The only big downside is credit cards. So full circle will be peer to peer exchanges.

Monero is definitely superior in many ways. Just want to say there are still use cases and advantages of Bitcoin though.
Such as?
I’ve watched this video a few times, with that being said once we go fully digital what can we expect the price of Monero to be?
"Deepfake to anime profile picture" I feel called out and I don't like it.
You are amazing man. You taught me a lot.
I had a hard time trying to convince my dad that mining coins wasn’t printing money or stealing 😂
Dad's hate crypto lol they prefer...paper Monopoly money 🤑
@Richard Vaughn most cases? I wonder why mining farms exist everwhere 🤔, yet they're still all generating profit.
@Richard Vaughn Fair point, though crypto is not limited to only one currency that's limited by specialized hardware. I've gotten personal profit from mining various cryptos with used consumer hardware and got enough to pay back the entire card and electricity in about less than a year, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
though, lost my sanity. server fans strapped to consumer GPUs are stupid loud.
@Richard Vaughn dude you can mine other coins and trade for BTC lol we aren't mining straight BTC out here
Research before commenting either IRL or online
Don't reply go read shit
If you reply it means you're wasting time replying instead of reading so just don't lol
did you said its like interest rate?
I got both and I agree plus gov or banks will probably use XRP or XLM which is even more open but it is fast at least.
XRP will be the global reserve currency for the banks. Super centralized though
Step 1: tax evasion
Theft evasion?
based evasion
Step 2: get Al Caponed...
Glowies will hunt you down anyway, naruto-running won't be enough to escape them...
@@transforgoku dont use the term "glowies" like a plebbit user
instead use "glownigger"
Hey dude, thanks for all the great content. Any pointer on generating a secure monero wallet offline?
Ok I Will blindly follow your advise.
Good
I’d be interested to hear your thoughts on the upcoming “Midnight” chain on Cardano. Thanks for the vid!
Government: "We'll pretend it doesn't exist and hope it goes away."
Me: "Heh, CPU go brrrr."
Since you cannot track it, "they" can crush it without anyone knowing who did it.
Thank you for these informative videos. One of many things left to talk about is to show us how to buy cryptocurrencies, like Monero, anonymously.
Local Monero. Cash for crypto person to person.
@@percyblok6014 totally unnecessary. Just buy it from an exchangr
What the heck happened to Monero just now? It crashed, down by $100, and I can't even buy it anymore.
This guy brows is more neater than my hair, hot damn!
I actually thought you were a hairy black dude lol. That deep fake is really good.
bro youre the "handsome squidward" of tech youtubers.
3:40 what are your thoughts on monero's transaction times? From what i could find monero takes 1/5th as long as bitcoin (2 minutes per block instead of 10). Which is a lot faster, but is it fast enough?
Could you explain a point by point comparison on why monero is better?
Btc is gold it provides liquidity for the new global monetary system
Saylor has good thoughts on it
What's this bro 0:11 a cameo 💪
Yum pit hair
Me and a classmate were talking about crypto mining and I suggested monero and he said "oh its that criminal crytpo, no I dont want to be thrown in jail"

Monero is banned many exchange. Thats why is hard to grow..eventhough the demand must be growth and one day monero will flip BTC😂
But bitcoin was never intended to be private, the idea was to be as transparent as possible so you wouldn't have to trust anyone, everyting is verified, not trusted, as in banks. The fact that stupid people think that bitcoin was the go to coin for privacy says too much about their intelligence and level of information.
Honestly I've had monero on sights for a while, but since I have no resources to buy, it'll have to wait a bit.
You have optional transparency with monero, you can show the amounts and your wallet to someone but only if you want
@@scjiwfoewmsxc that is good to know, don't know if it's known widely, but bitcoin has a protocol that tries to mitigate the privacy issue. Once you receive coins you use ona "address" (depending on the wallet), next time you receive coins another address is generated.
Not the best implementation or solution, but it's something, having in mind that full privacy wasn't in the foundations of bitcoin per se.
Bitcoin was never private, but it used to be somewhat sudo-anonymous, it could be mined or bought privately.
Thats almost impossible now with exchanges forcing you to use your real identity to buy it
@@archygrey9093 This. Even if it's hard to be private about the movements due to exchanges,there are a couple options, namely, buy from peers or exchanges like changenow or changelly, they have a minimum deposit of usd. The only big downside is credit cards.
So full circle will be peer to peer exchanges.
Totally off topic,
but you legit look like a Sumerian king lol.
Stay up king
Currency=/=investment
In Germany gains from crypto currencies are tax free, as long as you hold them for at least a year +1 day.😃
