Do you have any kind of crypto already? Because if you do, you can swap 4 Monero using one of the instant swap services such as trocador.app and use Haveno. If you do not, there is a get your first XMR room on matrix that might be able to help. https://matrix.to/#%2F!gQJbRTGiTuVmJhnVGe%3Amatrix.org%3Fvia=monero.social&via=matrix.org&via=kernal.eu

Do be aware that in that room you can only buy a maximum of 0.15 and that’s to keep people from being scammed for a bunch of money since there is no kind of arbitration or protection of any kind. Once you have at least 0.11, you can use Haveno-reto from https://haveno-reto.com/

All of my computers had been Intel for many many years and here about a year and a half ago I got my first AMD computer because I had seen other people’s machines with AMD processors but I had never owned one for myself and so now I do I have one with an AMD Ryzen 5

I think so, the SE 3. With that said i won’t swear to that because I hardly ever look at Apple. I have been an Android user for more than a decade now and so have very little reason to keep up with their products other than they flagship.

It also says that he had the heart attack in a police car while in police custody. Sounds rather convenient, don’t you think?

I thought so.

Don’t forget the German police murdered JStark in 2021.

What about the iphone SE?

True

Seems a little early doesn’t it? I know the iPhone 15 and 16 have a USB type C, but don’t they still sell devices that have the lighting port?

Honestly, I don’t blame them one bit for wanting to bring data back on shore, where it’s theirs to control.

I left my final mainstream social media with the Reddit API debacle back in 2023. And before that, I left Facebook and Twitter in 2018.

It’s not my bot. It’s a bot somebody else created and I just use it.

I use a repost bot to keep up with the Monero reddit but most of the time I find that I’m not interested enough to actually click the link to go to the original post on reddit and so most of the time I just stay here. I deleted my account during the API issues back in June of 2023 and have not had an account since then and do not plan on going back as I really enjoy it here.

I might hold it and I might use it on a pretty frequent basis to buy things like hand soap and AA batteries.

I have no control over it. I’m just a community member just like you are. The people you want to talk to are M and TentedBrief.

Wrll, LocalMonero specifically mentioned Haveno in their drparting blog post so they thought at the time that Haveno would be the future and with good reason. There is quite a wide selection of fiat currencies, low only a few have really serious traction, but you can just download the software and look at everything for yourself. It’s super simple. You currently need to have at least 0.11 Monero in order to get started using it because you need a security deposit. Although, steps are being taken to make that not an issue anymore.

Encrypt everything as violence does not win over math and the US should go fuck a duck. I can’t wait until Monero grows big enough and they lose their dominance over the reserve currency status.

Until there’s more than one server, it is absolutely not decentralized and should not be thought of as such.

The Monero Network also has seed nodes, hard-coded into the software. If you issue monerod --help you can see syntax for using a custom bootstrap node if you wish

Those only work if you have another Acrepto currency to swap, and most of them use centralized exchange partners, which could technically freeze your funds if they wished to. I do know there are some decentralized instant exchanges like thorchain, but there aren’t many.
