Monero (XMR)

To put the Google Quantum breakthrough into privacy context: Monero is cooked. Every transaction since 2014 sits on a public ledger, "hidden" by elliptic curve math. Quantum breaks ECC, and 10+ years of ring signatures, stealth addresses, RingCT all unravel retroactively. Their own research lab calls it "universal evaporation of privacy." FCMP++ helps going forward but does zero for the historical chain. The damage is already baked in. Zcash is architecturally different. Fully shielded transactions never put public keys on the ledger. Nullifiers use symmetric crypto (keyed PRFs), not ECC. A quantum adversary looking at shielded Zcash sees... nothing. The data was never there. Not perfectly quantum-proof yet (key exchange, viewkeys still use ECC, in-band secret distribution needs Tachyon to close), but the failure mode is categorically different.

Because Monero keeps public keys on chain all of Monero history will be revealed by quantum computers. Zcash public keys are not published and therefore Zcash transactions will not be revealed by QC. https://t.co/Xf4fguT3sC

The permanent suspension of @xmrbazaar is pure absurdity. An account devoted to peacefully spreading the P2P digital cash movement gets banned for “illegal and regulated behaviors” on a “free speech” platform. Yet X happily condones porn, spam AI bots, and endless evil/useless accounts. Why punish a tool of freedom while platforming endless crap? Reinstate @xmrbazaar ! Like and share so @elonmusk is forced to tell us why X is working to hurt the growth of the most successful p2p crypto marketplace for legal goods and services. Expose the hypocrisy! Elon please fix this.

Public blockchains are a scam Monero is the only real useful money in cryptocurrency Optional privacy maybe has some use cases #monero #bitcoin

The dark side of NO KYC crypto swaps you don't know about! Most swap services for XMR (applies to all other as well) don’t ask for KYC. Sounds good at first, but here’s what you don’t see. 1) No KYC, until there is KYC Your funds get frozen and suddenly you’re asked to go through KYC. Either comply or lose your funds. There are legit cases but also many many where funds endup confiscated because the provider knows the user has no real way to appeal. That’s why : - having a clear risk profile before the swap is critical. Users should understand risks before the swap. - it’s important for users to understand that you’re not swapping with the wallet itself, but with a third-party provider, with its own rules. 2) Data Collection Swap services collect users' data! Period. In some cases without wallet provider even knowing about it. When user requests a quote, the IP, device and other metadata get passed directly to the provider. So if something goes wrong, not only funds get frozen, but the da
