@JamesBaker and the fact that sites do lick their boots instead of adoping #Monero is empowering them.

@kkarhan Yea problem is authorities have Monroe and privacy coins in their crosshairs https://www.cpomagazine.com/data-privacy/eu-looks-to-ban-privacy-coins-and-anonymous-crypto-accounts-by-2027/ in afraid we are heading to a future of total financial surveillance which is then used to control what can and can’t be purchased or traded

@JamesBaker which is to say is just absurd and will only push for faster adoption of #Monero.

Besides, the #EU can only regulate businesses and individuals within it's borders, so if businesses outsorce that to others they never got their hands on privacy coins...

@[email protected] @[email protected] depends… There are some like https://nowpayments.io & https://changenow.io that do facilitate direct exchange of #Monero back and forth into fiat and fiat payouts too. - The stranglehold of the *"big 4 payment systems"* needs to be broken and the sooner and more decisevely it happens the less painful and costly it'll be!
