Can't you just hold your money in a stable coin like USDC to avoid the volatility and speculation?

    the homebrewer i was buying from didn’t support this one, so i would’ve had to convert it, which means fees typically

    anyways, i don’t really care to maintain a crypto portfolio. i buy the coin when i buy the thing, so volatility isn’t too much of a concern. my main annoyance is at the bonkers fees that exchanges want because they (rightly) recognize cryptobros as a milkable consumer base

    Could use localbitcoin.com (or localmonero I guess), though it's been so long since I've been to those sites that I forget if/what kind of cut the website takes.

    But yeah, dunno if you can avoid fees when cashing out to fiat. And if you're using non-kyc sites to swap Monero, they're likely taking some too, for the convenience and privacy (worth it imo)
