Monerica is now posting Official Reviews of services which show more transaction details.

This is primarily for instant swap exchanges, because they are the life blood of everything in Monero. Of course we could review other things, but someone buying coffee or similar stuff really doesn't move the needle. Basically 95% of Monero's clearnet market revolves around instant swaps so that's what we must focus on more.

These reviews will show the order URL, sending and receiving transaction, AML score on sent or received coins, time it took to swap, if KYC was asked for, rate details and other comments. Transactions are intended to be in the $1-5K range since our real customers need this data.

There are simply too many low quality reviews out there. We had to remove all the instant swap reviews that didn't have order URLs we could verify.

This kind of transparency will be helpful to the people who are relying on instant swaps to get or exchange Monero. It should also put Monerica higher up in overall trust. So look at them before you make a swapping (or buying) decision.

yea, instant swap exchanges make numbers go up quick when there's something wrong on other coins and they want to move to xmr fast lol
or also, just very useful when services dont accept xmr natively, so it's literally the way for monero people to still be able to pay by using monero through a swap exchange

like, so far they been so important, been hoping that something decentralized be made on that eventually but so far that's what's available to the ecosystem and the ones that have been reliable have been great for not just the monero economy but the usecases too

so thank you on those reviews
trocador been my personal go since literally forever, because they been in the community for awhile, built other websites useful to monero ecosystem, like, they been actually legit
lately noticed a few more that should be worth the attention as well still, so, thank you on that work to help figuring these outs

@SpinningCat Trocador isn't actually an instant swap exchange. They are an aggregator of other instant swaps. We are focusing on directly testing the underlying providers right now. Maybe a few aggregators will be tested as well.

But yes, their pay feature allows paying for invoices that only accept other coins by paying a fixed rate with XMR.

If there's any specific data we aren't collecting you want to know, please mention it. It takes a lot of time and fees to do this but it's what will make Monerica better than all these sites copying literally everything we've done so far.
