In this Topic post the businesses that accept Monero for payments.
To start: I’m a self-taught blacksmith/welder/woodworker and i accept Monero for my work. Right now i make hooks, hangers and blades. I plan on branching out into more intricate blacksmithing items such as hand-tools (chisels, punches, gardening tools, etc), longer blades and eventually swords, square-nails, and other useful items. Once i have the space to set up a real welding area, i plan on making bench-vices along with other useful items.
If you’re interested in what i’ve listed, you can find me on my business twitter through my handle @/TheMakerShops
I have an account on there and was one of the first vendors and Mediators. But after its owner threatened to assault me for my beliefs, it seems i can no longer post listings on there despite my account still being active
Yeah it is! And after shilling their site since before it went live too! I’ll just stick to more decentralized methods of growing my business instead of relying on the bald ego-maniac’s website
Thank you The_Maker117 for sharing this amazing thread on Monero Businesses. Great interactions and so much to learn from. That’s some great work you are doing, wishing you the very best in all your endeavours!
I dont know, i only found out after we got internet reinstalled and tried to list one of the blades i made, but got an error along the lines of “website no longer exists or moved to a new address” once i clicked on the Post listing button
It happened months ago. Doug Tuman got a stick up his ass because Nationalist monero users were talking about the jews and how monero is something they couldn’t control. Monero Mavrick, after several spats with Doug and his ilk, opened up a Twitter space to talk about it and try to squash the beef. Doug hopped on 30 mins into the space with the intent of ambushing Mav and others.
The fallout resulted in Doug saying on his MoneroTalk podcast that he’d punch people in the face like Mav for having opinions on race. So i posted “if doug wants to punch people like me in the face, i hope he knows that some of us carry”, to which he responded that he’d assault me in some made up scenario about his kids (nobody ever mentioned his kids).
Him and Xmrbazaar both blocked me on twitter as a result of this
Wow I didn’t know the Maverick beef spilled over to other people. That’s not right and shouldn’t have happened to you. Looks like xmrbazaar failed their free speech audit.
Tried doing some more blacksmithing today but somehow my forge blower is broken. The gears inside it wont mesh together any more, making it so no air is getting blown into the forge.
Since i dont have the money to replace it with a new one, im done blacksmithing for the forseeable future
