I hope that I can make it to this one, sad to hear that it will be the last one of this type. Guess I'll have to start a new one :D
10 times more private, from 16 to 100.000.000
hehe
Nice!

Thanks for making this thread. I don't have any real criticism, just hoping for FCMPs and Serai to work out smoothly. Both of them are absolutely vital for Moneros future.
Recently, the option to trade and withdraw (!!!) Monero was suddenly gone for about a day without a word from them on what is going on. I would stay away.
Oh right, sorry. You need a whole damn lab setup that combines the Foss one with another Foss tts. Tutorial, shouldn't take too much compute, the more tricky part is getting the right voice model. I'd recommend a gawr gura one ;)
Could be but I don't think so. We have seen increased transactions around summertime before, imo it's people buying stuff to use during summer vacation.
There's also the fact that more and more xmr transactions move away from binance-like-CEX to instant swappers. Oh and of course, the binance delisting was officially concluded 2 days ago and it was the last chance for people to withdraw their coins.
On matrix the meetings are held and people just generally hang out. There is still r/monero & r/monerosupport as well as monero.town but that one's a bit less accessible for people new to Monero.
The serai coin is mainly used as stake and pair for liquidity pools, it's not supposed to be used for payments. Imo taint is less of an issue, you're only at risk when not using Monero and that's the case no matter if you got the coins from Serai or any other exchange.
Objectively, if used correctly, ZCash has better transaction privacy, at least until FCMP++ goes live with (probably) the next Monero hardfork. After FCMP++ goes live, no, Monero will be the objectively best privacy coin in all aspects.
In reality you have about 400 fully private ZCash transaction per day and 40.000 for Monero. You might literally be the only person making a Zcash transaction that day within a +100 mile radius, not much of a crowd to hide in.
There are many other factors like ZCassh having a CEO, dev fee, moonboy community and even their garbage tier mascot that make people prefer Monero.
