Welcome to the Monero General, dedicated to the discussion of the world's leading decentralized p2p privacy cryptocurrency!

Monero is secure, low-fee, and borderless, meaning users can send XMR around the globe despite corrupt governments or broken financial systems. Innovative privacy features such as Ring Signatures, Stealth Addresses, and Ring CT (hidden tx amounts) ensure that Monero's blockchain is obfuscated -- the financial history of all Monero users is encrypted from the prying eyes of adversaries on a public blockchain, with the proof of the transactions being possible by a Monero user willingly providing a view key for a specific transaction if needed.

Monero has also improved upon the scaling downsides of the current popular cryptos. To avoid high fees, dynamic block size ensures that the size of the blocks will increase as the amount of txs goes higher. Further, the mining network algorithm Random X establishes that anybody with a CPU can participate in mining, preventing the ASIC miner domination that creates a high barrier of entry. Lastly, the mining network will be preserved by Tail Emission -- instead of the block reward falling to zero like with Bitcoin, the block reward will gradually approach 0.6 XMR in May 2022, where it will forever stay. This constant linear inflation means the inflation rate will asymptotically go to zero while continuing to provide an incentive to miners to maintain the network.

If you still have questions, feel free to ask and a Monero Chad will be with you shortly.

Normally if you have a dynamic IP you can just reset your router (or enable/disable wifi/ restart phone if phone posting) to get around them, if you have a sticky IP you may need to keep it turned off for a while. Might be worth a shot.
However you might be range banned from posting pics, in which case even if you have a dynamic IP it won't work because every IP allocated to your provider is banned (for example I can start threads on /lit/ and /ck/ on my phone but not /int/ and as of a few months ago /biz/ bevause of range bams), these are trickier to evade. Normally they only do it to phone providers but they have done it to entire coubtries (turkey near completely and australia from making threads briefly) in which case your onky real option, if you can't mooch wi-fi from another provider, is to use a VPN, almost all free and public VPNs are already banned but some paid ones remain usable for now.

With atomic swaps operational, they can't stop anybody using Monero. They can delist it, ban it, whatever, as long as some other major crypto is available XMR can be easily acquired.

So, they might declare cross-chain swapping illegal, which will be even more hilarious since there is no way of actually knowing an atomic swap has happened.

Like it or not, a fuckton of black money will be rolling into Monero's marketcap in the coming years, so strap in for blast off.

Don't get me wrong, I know that taxes are required for the prosperity of a country.

You'd have to be getting paid off the books to begin with and preferably with crypto. So, income tax isn't really going to be that much of an issue, its more ill-gotten gains and undeclared offshore assets that will find great utility in XMR.

Two pronged attack. They'll attack the network continuously (they're doing this right now, or at least probing at it/poking at it to see dev response) and they'll shut down centralized exchanges or make it much more difficult to exchange BTC for fiat by forcing these exchanges to be borderline hostile to their userbase. See below for details. The only exchanges left will be ones that are completely KYC/AML compliant and this will most likely entail similar "source of funds" language to discourage deposits of Bitcoin that has been washed through Monero from ever even being deposited.

This is all just speculation on my part and while I'm hopeful for Monero from an intellectual standpoint, it's hard to argue against the trends.

Your second point effects all of crypto however, and if anything it pushes users towards Monero who want to avoid regulation. The more the government clamps down with KYC regulations, the more people will use Monero.
As has been said many times before, there is nothing to suggest that monero is illegal. You can't ban a p2p application and you can't ban encryption. So long as somebody reports crypto to crypto transactions and pays those taxes, there is nothing wrong with using or trading Monero.
The Fincen pdf that got released is bullish as fuck for Monero because their regulation declares (without saying hint hint wink wink) that Monero and Bitcoin are on a level playing field. There is nothing illegal about using an obfuscated public ledger.

Essentially they will be putting together a mining pool which is intended to control 7.6% of Bitcoin's hashrate, with the intention of censoring any transaction the U.S. Treasury doesn't improve of. I feel like XMR is gonna be a precursor to something big coming soon...

It makes perfect sense once you realize this current crypto market is highly irrational and fueled by speculative hype and short-term gains chasing.

Monero's fundamentals are very solid and that is why its gradually overtaking BTC on the darknet and will likely end up the reserve cryptocurrency of the global shadow economy.

So, have patience and know that your XMR investment will eventually yield you fantastic gains.

I have very cheap power compared to you guys in the 1st world. It does sound concerning that you're implying my hardware could be obsolete soon though. And again since I live in the 3rd world I don't need too much to 'make it'. And maybe, just maybe I won't use theoretical XMR to turn it into fiat.

Maybe. Or maybe it pushes people back toward low-tech methods like local transactions with fiat cash.

Satis Group, the authors of that particular projection, are actually pretty level-headed and conservative about expectations.

That's one of the reasons I was opting for Monero instead of the popular choices, but I don't know where to get it without giving a truckload of data. Localmonero only has one seller who asks for a lot of details, and while is possible that there are more privacy-friendly Bitcoin sellers I can use to get Monero, I think buying from them first would defeat the whole purpose of getting a privacy coin.

For this BTC needs to pump as high as possible. The higher the better. At some point, it is a certainty that BTC buyers will be exhausted and were overenthusiastic of BTC vs Altcoins.

Generally, there are three connected buckets of value: Fiat BTC and Altcoins
Right now a very strong current flows from Fiat ---> BTC and moderate current from Altcoins to BTC.
At some point, the money streams are always reversing. Also, institutions will get into Altcoins it's just that they are not smart and greedy enough right now.
Besides current sentiment being bad XMR is a very good position to profit from all of this.

At its high point, barely less than what it is right now, and I said "past few years" so chill out. 2015 was a long time ago in the crypto world, and in terms of Monero is basically ancient history. XMR was trading at like $20k per day volume back then. That was a completely different time.

Usually XMR would just be treated like litecoin and bitcoin in terms of correlations of up/down movements (they are all just currencies), but right now all the dumb money is going to bitcoin and a few alts.

wrong, the demand for monero (freedom) isn't going anywhere; assuming demand remains, with each exchange displacing monero users/traders to other exchanges, the competitor exchanges actually benefit from each closing of other xmr pairs.
in other words, if XMR total trading fees = 100k per day, and bittrex closes down having had 1% of that volume...there is now 1k more per day for competitors to capitalize on.
in other words, game theory dictates that greed will always fulfill the demand for free btc/monero exchange. furthermore, this entire debate will be rendered useless by 2022 with atomic swaps coming out.

You're leaving out the calculation as to whether or not the trading fees for centralized exchanges on any increase in Monero volume is worth the hassle of dealing with more targeted threats from governments to delist privacy coins. One less centralized exchange with an XMR/BTC pairing shortens the list of exchanges governments feel tempted to bother. As soon as it isn't worth the exchange owners' time from a legal standpoint, Monero could be at risk for getting delisted. Not because it's expressly illegal, but because the exchanges decide it's not worth dealing with the aforementioned "source of funds" brick wall that Monero represents.

tl;dr - Centralized exchanges generally suck and I agree that we need atomic swaps or good DEX solutions like Bisq to gain traction and volume so that a truly independent Monero economy can start to thrive.

Treating Bitcoin and Monero the same in this regard is not necessarily some kind of bullish indicator for either. The fact that the government is getting wise to forcing exchanges to not only KYC their users but also KYC "covered wallet counterparties" as well as filing reports for every large deposit/withdrawal should be alarming for both Monero and Bitcoin. Imagine needing to broadcast your Monero wallet details with your home address to some centralized exchange/bank so you could make a withdrawal of $3000 or more XMR from that exchange. It's bullshit and should be another nail in the coffin of centralized exchanges.

I never claimed they were only targeting Monero.

The guy who runs Kraken seems like a bro though, so at least we've got that going for us. Read the report you keep referencing.

>Read the report you keep referencing.
why even add this sentence? is this to try to de-legitimize what I've been telling you all along (that Monero and Bitcoin are looked at in the same way...and that your speculation that Monero is looked at differently has no standing?). You literally said that exchanges would have to deal with "the hassle of dealing with more targeted threats from governments to delist privacy coins". Post a source for your theory or get out, because it's not what's in the document that you say I should be reading. The only country who has vocalized this is Austrailia and even there Monero isn't illegal, you just can't onramp with exchanges.
