Faz's Crypto Thread

That’s why I say if you’re paying for devs in a crypto project it’s probably just a scam

https://ccs.getmonero.org/

The devs on monero apply for funding through this to pay themselves an hourly wage in monero which is typically a reasonable wage (in USD converted to monero) with an added % usually like 10% in order to adjust for market fluctuations, one guy who just got funded for part time work selsta is a super nice guy and answered a ton of questions for me on their IRC channel when I was setting up a monero node on some virtual server I had like a year or two ago so these guys aren’t just like scammers siphoning money out, if they don’t show their work on the project people wouldn’t fund them

Love you guys but man you guys sound EXACTLY like my mom selling MLM cosmetics. It's crazy. Even those two posts. Praying I'm wrong.

I personally believe the idea of making anonymous financial transactions to anyone in the world as a very cool idea, and seeing how it functions like that now and they keep improving on it makes me believe that monero is the best technology currently for that idea

Well MLM you’re selling a dream to someone

I would agree with you if this was just a pipe dream project with a roadmap with no real substance to it but no it’s pretty functional as a currency right now

Just trying to illustrate what I am seeing when I read y'alls crypto posts

Right but you can, right now, make anonymous financial transaction with it, to anyone in the world as long as they also will accept monero

Which anyone can do with minimal understanding as long as they can figure out how to transfer it to something like bitcoin then sell the bitcoin on an exchange for actual cash

How is that useful at all with that VERY BIG condition at the end? lmao

It’s not very big at all because it can be exchanged out for USD in like 20 minutes

I’ve done it before plenty of times

Man it's wild that you guys don't hear how this sounds.

I'm not hating. Just wanna put this out there and walk away. Y'all can think about it and do what you want.

I think you should think about the value something provides where your financial transactions cannot be monitored or restricted in any sense by any government

I learned how to cold stack a deck to satisfy my urge to sit at a casino table. I can only do it really slow though.

That's a different convo that we will never be able to agree on. I want the exact opposite of that and neither of us will ever change each others mind about it. Not worth talking about that aspect.

So when Edward Snowden leaked out the NSA spying shit you said to yourself “this is great I’m glad the NSA hacked Google and tracked everyone’s data”

Nope I am way too stupid for poker. At casinos I just play blackjack and easy push games like Pai gow.

That isn't completely true I've gone to poker rooms a few times but I'm not really into poker.
