Hey Monero people, I hope it's ok if I ask a few questions (and ok that I'm gonna crosspost this to monero.town even though you're phasing it out because the subbed number is higher), I trust you more than the LLM and ad filled search results.
What's the safest way to get monero from fiat anon in Current Year?
- Buy, say, ETH kyc, and transfer?
- Hodl Hodl or localmonero or something? (recs welcome)
- other? Please share preferred
I'd rather burn a few bucks to not get ripped off, if it's reasonable, but I'm open to (I've heard you can somewhere) buy a gift card and do a transfer with escrow.
With Cake Wallet, I rolled a random name for my xmr wallet, would I lose anon if I named it a pre-used screen name(+xmr, btc, etc) and used subkeys? Who all can see the wallet name?
If I do end up with some kyc monero, what exactly does that mean to me? I still use it anon but have to pay taxes or something, or is it like, "now we know who is associated with this acct and you paid your weedman in XMR so now we send you to prison?" Should I have one wallet, kyc that one, and then send it to a second I keep clean, is that reasonable? Can I only accept non-kyc monero to my acct if I intend to stay anon? I'm so very new to this.
I'm really not planning on dodging taxes or buying/selling weed, actually mostly planning on using it as an inconvenient but private cashapp-type replacement (prob have like, btc, xmr, and eth wallets for variety just in case and store the funds as btc and xmr), but I'm privacy minded which is what attracts me to XMR to begin with, I'd like to plan for buying a gun that shoots fentanyl bullets on the darkweb and then in reality I'm paying my friend for watching my cat, or being paid for watching their dogs.
Lastly, is there anything else you think I'm too inexperienced to know to ask, but should be told? I mean consider me dumb, I don't know shit, I'm new to crypto entirely not just xmr or cake.
Well,
A) "Let's dissuade people from participating in radical politics" is only during presidential election season, when's the last time you saw an ad for midterms? The DNC barely participates themselves. Be real.
B) So? The comment you replied to chose to talk about the presidential election which is no less valid of an interpretation. Maybe they didn't want to dox themselves more locally than "US," you are the one who chose to reply to that comment specifically instead of making your own top level comment about midterms.
C) Almost everyone in this thread interpreted it to be directly about Kamala. It doesn't mention her by name, no, and yes, all the rest in the DNC are just as incompetent of candidates, but people get mad when you remind them of that and if you agree with me, we're the outliers here, as sad as that is for a supposed anarchist community. That said, it was likely OP's intent even without naming her (or it's an old meme about Biden or Hillary because tbh they KEEP doing it for presidential elections especially like they want to lose.)
