Interesting, thanks for sharing!

Oh the idea sounds very nice! Does that work like a captcha? How would I integrate this into a site?

You're always spot on! Keep telling the truth to the collectivists/statists here in the fedi verse brother 🫶

Maybe, but it also could've been that I didn't really want to argue with statists as it's mostly a waste of time ;)

So I got some stats from one of the bigger vendors at PorcFest this year:
Percentage of revenue:
Cash 72.2%
Goldbacks 11.77%
Monero 5.42%
Silver 4.44%
Zelle 2.69%
Bitcoin Lightning 1.82%
Bitcoin Cash 0.62%
Litecoin 0.56%
Bitcoin 0.47%

The vendor accepts any crypto. Over the years he also received Dash, XRP, Doge, TFuel and ETH.

The percentage of crypto sales in general was:
~7% in 2022
~9% in 2023
~9% in 2024

So the numbers, only looking at crypto, are:
XMR 61.0%
BTC LN 20.5%
BCH 7.0%
LTC 6.3%
BTC 5.3%

 

Holy! I might be a bit late to the party, but I just checked the recent numbers from ShopInBit.com for june:

#Monero 74,54 % 👀🤯🥳
#Bitcoin 23,64 % 😂
#LightningNetwork 1,73 % 🤣
FIAT 0,08 %

Also they said if Monero surpasses the volume of Bitcoin in the next two month, they change their bio to "Europe's biggest Bitcoin and Monero Store" (which should obviously name Monero first but whatever xD).

Btw the numbers for coincards.com show a similar but not as devastating picture:

#XMR: 34.4%
#BTC (Onchain): 25.96%
#USDC: 20.20%
#ETH: 9.84%
#LTC: 2.49%
#Solana: 2.31%
#Dogecoin: 2.09%
#LightningNetwork: 2.08%
#USDT: 0.58%
#Dai: 0.04%
#Matic: 0.01%
#Dash: 0%

I think if people made the jump from BTC to BCH they're more likely to jump to XMR as switching is much cheaper and XMR is pretty much the private and fungibel version of BCH. Does that logic check out?

You can't vote through that link, but at least you can read the comments and see Monero leading the poll ;)

Interesting thoughts, but I have to say something about the socialist/marx and goverment part. I'll try to be friendly:

Socialists, especially Marx, are dumb, human-hating fucks and control freaks. Sorry, but think that shit through. It cannot work. Research praxeology.

I for sure would call myself anarcho capitalist and a cyperpunk.

Hell no about the gov part. I hope monero can help us to get rid of goverments in general. Just live and let live. I'd start a free private city with other people though.

Oh and on a more serious note: I kind of understand where you're coming from. It's important how you define things like gov, social, socialist etc. I watched and participated in the anarcho capitalist vs anarcho communist discussion. It made me realize both have somewhat similar goals. But the ancap side has the more consistent world view and logical explanations for it. I'm sure you'll figure it out if you stay open minded. I mean you found your way into the monero ecosystem :)

 

I was kind of blown away to what length the developers go to ensure your communication is as safe/secure as possible (while still delivering a very useable app).

Either a whale was generous or the hacker felt bad? 🤔

 

Just stumbled upon this video. Never heard of this channel. But the explanation of Monero and some of it's features are pretty good.
