If only I could pay for my groceries/gas/utilities/taxes/loans with crypto. Alas! I have to convert it back into fiat currency first.
Yes, there is a violent mafia that has a monopoly on currency and credit at this time. This is changing slowly as more and more rational people realize the scam that is being perpetrated.
Domain registration, DNS, VPN
Donations: grapheneos, briar, molly.im, Tor, eff
Just a few things I regularly use crypto for today.
Never heard of molly or briar before, thanks for the recommendations. What VPN do you use?
Mullvad, airvpn accept monero.

Take a look at privacy guides, a lot of the software they recommend lines up with the Monero philosophy
“Regularly” how regularly do you get a VPN? Or donate to TOR?
Monthly
Well, I can pay for my groceries, gas, and utilities with crypto already. Can’t do the loans yet though.

12 upvotes, only 3 out of the downvotes come from this instance.
they even downvoted you, looks like I have hit a nerve 😁
edit: such a stamp would be a good addition to monerosupplies store 😉
Generally, votes are overrated. Especially if you’re not mainstream, by definition most people won’t support you, won’t agree with you, won’t understand you.
Some things may be downvoted because they’re too stupid. But occasionally, you might be downvoted simply because you’re a bit too early. Like, if you’d said “being gay is not crime” or something 50 years ago, you might have got downvoted… Just a thought.
Vote counts are worthless regardless, doubly so in a federated environment. The fact that they can move things up and down in ranking makes them prone to abuse.
Is this new?
this is fucking awesome. perfect way to spread the word.
please link where we can get these stamps?? we should be shipping these out by the truckloads. easy to do, everyone can do it, very little effort, and spread like wildfire
There are many services that will let you create custom rubber stamps, just search. One of them is https://www.rubberstamps.net/
true, thanks. looks like the BTC bots are in full force today btw!
I think this time it maybe banker bots, they are angry about having their scam notes “defaced” AKA improved with info about real money.
when we try to build our own financial system this makes certain kinds of ordinary people really mad for a lot of dumb reasons. they haven’t been told that they are allowed to think it’s cool yet
only needs a pen my friend
You can have it done yourself at any stamp service.
Idk, I think finding an ad stamped on my banknote would probably just sour my opinion of the thing being advertised. Especially if the ink runs and gets on my hands or clothes or something
If you don’t want it to be pulled from circulation, make it a lot smaller. Chop marks don’t get bills pulled. Try a small Monero logo, or a tiny getmonero.org, with total area the size of the typical chop mark you already see on $100 bills. If xmr.org redirected to getmonero.org, using that would be even better.
i’d put it along the margin too….
Doesn’t this invalidate the banknote?
I like how you didn’t call it “money” 👍
No, but it will get pulled from circulation the next time it gets deposited into a bank.
Banks take damaged or defaced notes and send them to the nearest Federal Reserve bank to be destroyed and replaced.
So in other words, put this stamp on every bill you ever touch. Got it.
It’s technically a felony, it’s just not worth tracking down the kid drawing a moustache in Jackson.
Besides being needlessly petty, wilfully defacing every bill you can is a good way to get investigated if it’s a slow day for federal law enforcement.
Not a felony = print trillions of notes and steal purchasing power of the whole population to fund crimes against humanity.
Felony = Stamp critical information on bank notes that empowers individuals in a peaceful manner.
This is not a sign of evil scumbags running a clownworld at all…
Sadness. Okay, I won’t do it then.
You feeling alright, buddy?
Nope, but thanks for asking, pal.
Go talk to someone today.
Yeah… It won’t actually increase the value of crypto… You’ll just be associating it with nutjobs like anti-vaxxers or insurrectionists who are the kinds of people who do stuff like this… The kinds of people who follow URL’s they find on banknotes, you probably won’t want in your community
You’re just decreasing the value of both here…
You still believe in “vaccines” AKA toxic injections? 😆 You have a lot of catching up to do.
The data is clear vaccines are 100% useless and most likely harmful, it has been a fraud from the start. It is based on a nonscientific premise of virology.
Yeah. I’ll believe my mate who studied immunology for 5 years and has a PhD. Who was trained by people with actual lab and research experience. But sure mate. I’m sure a bit of Google and you’re the expert eh lol
You can do what you want. But defacing bank notes just is cringe and turns people away from what you’re trying to promote, because they will see it like a scam
That’s why only crazy people do it
In personal discussions, people of such credentials confirmed that they also just “trust the [academic] process” and “don’t have time” to check the foundations of their convictions. And that they didn’t know, but “there surely was someone specialized” who does.
More clearly, in this context, saying you trust your mate is equal to saying you trust your recorder that is replaying the cassette that someone happened to have left in it.
You are right, it is best to trust the experts, they’re totally not brainwashed with intense indoctrination and huge personal and professional conflicts of interest.
Vaccines are very much real and effective.
They are real effective at keeping big pharma profits sky high.
What do you have against communicable diseases?
We don’t care of the value of USD.
Yeah. But what about monero? Again, it doesn’t help it either.
This will be exactly as effective as Operation Lioncash. That is to say not at all effective.
Your opinion will discourage no one from spreading awareness of a non-fraudulent money systems to help people escape the banker scam.
Even if your right, that’s no reason not to try.
