Does Monero Have a Future?
As crypto becomes increasingly regulated and transparent, the demand for financial privacy could grow.
We personally do believe that monero is the future
Curious to hear the community’s thoughts.

KYC - Keep Your Coins
@StereoSwap That very reason (regulated crypto) will be the force that drive Monero to popularity. There's already plenty of cases where Tether freeze funds. Few days ago they freeze wallet again because that wallet apparently linked to hacker group or something, they bought alot of monero with that and make the price jump for a short period of time.

I love making poster art
TBD
as was talking about the other day regarding electricity prices reaching crazy numbers in some areas, expected to be inreasing everywhere too
the new hype nowadays is not the cryptospace (cbdc / gov stable coin bs is a tough competion)
but the AI thing as was being talked about in that thread from @sepia:
https://monero.forum/thread/how-all-connected-reason-payment-processor-censorship
still unsure if any of the proposed solutions regarding monero will actually ever being worked on, from your other thread @StereoSwap:
https://monero.forum/thread/monero-solved-biggest-problem-tomorrow-what-would-problem
or if they would even actually work as actual solutions
one thing i would hate to see tho, is monero changing the mining protocol to like PoS = piece of shit, that would be a big disapointment right here...
so my opinion on that right now is, FCMP++ is the #1 important priority
lots of other thingies are literally secondary and not a priority and funding could be spent in better ways, to find ways to keep mining alive for the years to come
so... TBD, what would be those solutions is still unclear
but maybe autistic videogamers theorycrafters that can do some next level maths (for real) would be able to do a better job than the CCS scammers on that
since CCS scammers still feel the need to make CCS to this day, despite being early adopters, it's just proof that they're bad at math
and bad at math they are if they cant realize that mining is fucked real bad right now
they're bad at math but good at scamming, that's what's up
Does Monero Have a Future?
TBD

my bad if this post kinda unhinged af tho lol
@plowsoff "peace has been restored" - on the doxxings
the CCS model still need to die
and mining needs to make sense, that would also bring more contributors that could afford to contribute without feeling the need to seek funding

there is no peace, peace is a myth, war is back on, context in post #19:

There's already plenty of cases where Tether freeze funds. Few days ago they freeze wallet again because that wallet apparently linked to hacker group or something, they bought alot of monero with that and make the price jump for a short period of time.
and what's even more dumb is that is literally just speculation from tether, like, freezing funds on speculation, not because of an actual report or none of that...
Tether has not publicly explained the freeze and no law enforcement agency has confirmed that the wallet formed part of a criminal case.
No public statement has identified the sender, intended recipient, or reason the funds moved through several services.
no named protocol has confirmed a security breach. There is also no public incident report showing how the funds were obtained. Therefore, claims about an exploit remain unverified
and article ends with saying that in 2026 alone, tether froze 1.1 BILLIONS based on literally nothing, but pretty much just because they can
In my opinion, the technological niche that monero has found is so robust and so incredibly crucial to the game of money that I struggle to see it going anywhere. The niche is 1) private, 2) international 3) integration with crypto, 4) uncensored 5) asic resistance PoW. This is the necessary exit valve for the digital id ledger system and they will form a mutually reinforcing relationship like Zion and Matrix.
So the question really becomes, will monero itself always dominate this niche? For such a crucial market it is very small, and constantly under attack. If the ledger is severely compromised, could a new ledger dominate the financial and (stolen) hashpower markets? I am not sure but I think potentially (or xmr might defend itself by forking). This is more like an airline ticket (to the pseudonymous markets) than a bank.

Paper hands die young
Bitcoin and stablecoins do not have the properties of cash. It is actually anti-cash. An equivalent is needed and i dont see a corporate coin like zec being adopted when they phase cash out in the future.
