Is Monero traceable? And why scaling matters for privacy w/ Francisco Cabanas (ArticMine) (MT 324)

TODAY’S 🎙SHOW: Douglas Tuman interviews ArticMine, a monero core team member and well known Monero contributor specializing in scaling and a blockchain surveillance expert.

They dive into the traceability of Monero, discussing recent events around leaked Chainalysis videos. They explore how privacy features such as ring signatures, stealth addresses, and confidential transactions safeguard Monero users from blockchain surveillance.

The conversation also covers the implementation of Dandelion technology, which further protects user privacy by obscuring IP addresses. Throughout, they emphasize the strengths of Monero’s privacy model while addressing common misconceptions about its traceability.

    The point is, that it’s hard to buy Monero legally. or at least, without passing KYC. We need more solutions for casual people to be involved in Monero community to stay independent

        Good one, I usually swap BTC or USDT to Monero, and for this stuff I use Exolix or something like that. Fast, anonymous and without connecting wallets

      @0x0 @monerotalk
      I have bought ETH and BTC from a ATM in Prague.
      It was Convinient, but there was a Partial KYC, not sure what exactly it was (Phone/Email) something like that.
