The Privacy Iceberg

A lower section of the iceberg is titled “The Privacy Enthusiast” with a quote beside it that says “I have nothing I want to show”. The logos depicted in this section are:

An even lower section of the iceberg is titled “The Privacy Activist” with a quote beside it that says “Privacy is a human right”. The logos depicted in this section are:

The lowest portion of the iceberg is titled “The Ghost”. There is a quote beside it that has been intentionally redacted. The images depicted in this section are:

    You can absolutely use monero without converting it to other currency. You just haven’t looked in right places. Of course you can’t buy a loaf of bread with it, but you cannot use gold either, neither can you rent a server with something like mongolian togrog, yet, they’re all still valid forms of currency.

      Well, perhaps not Monero, and perhaps not a loaf of bread either, but also not far from that. One large e-shop in Slovakia I use (Alza) supports crypto payments via Confirmo (BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC, SOL, POL, LTC, TRX). They sell mostly electronics, but also some food items.

      Now, since you’ve mentioned bread:

      But I haven’t yet tried crypto.
