This is when technology is not just here in theory but is actually changing the world. Eating real cheese from Italy.

Take a look at PiNodeXMR, which can even use a 1GB RAM RaspberryPi.

there is no competition.

In the previous Bitcoin lightning, payment channels had to be set up, managed and maintained, which was usually only accomplished by technically skilled individuals or companies. Often centralized and custodial. The system described here uses smart contracts, HTLCs, which can manage the Lightning system for everyone via intuitive user interfaces.

the latter is the case

building out a new smart contract system

If possible, avoid third-party providers like this one and only use the original wallet.

It is important to almost everyone, you just shouldn’t have to actively take care of it. This has also been a principle of Monero from the very beginning: Everyone who uses it enjoys privacy without having to enforce it manually.

I was happy to see that you can listen to your podcast on a simple website, without registration or apps. I can only continue to recommend using and advocating open and good technology and avoiding closed things that also perform actions for commercial purposes that are not beneficial to the user. Take social media, for example: Use Twitter less, Mastadon more often instead.

We should celebrate and use the good and not dwell on the bad and worry about it. Time is better spent trying out the good and helping to spread and improve it. Monero is not without alternatives either, just like Linux. Instead of always using the standard Linux distribution, you can also install BSD to contribute to the diversity of the infrastructure. Monero’s privacy technology could be overtaken by Lightning-like state channels. Good will prevail.

I thought they specialized in shitty (scam)tokens.

Have they switched it off for australia?

To find out if XMR Monero is available in your region via Kraken, you need to check their website or app or ask their support.

where should i go to exchange to monero?

There are many providers that allow an exchange. For example, the Cake Wallet has integrated it, or the Edge.app Wallet. There are also providers such as Exolix or Changenow, or newer technologies such as UnstoppableSwap.

Here is the Nodo, even in English and on odysee:

Are there any strong competitors of Monero?

No. XMR are 100% mining rewards. Proven technology has been running since 2014.

Parallelization has already been expressed as a future Monero wish to eliminate this bottleneck. Today and tomorrow, however, the existing capacity is many times sufficient to handle the actual volume.

As already discussed here.

Not a surprise to us on this website here.

Monero is the successor of Bitcoin:

• automatically private and uncensorable
• decentralized, any computer can participate
• any PC can easily mine XMR with the GUI wallet
• Faster transactions than Bitcoin
• low transaction fees, even with high utilization

👍

transactions only to initial nodes they know and trust. I don’t know how to do that

• Create your own fullnode and leave it running all the time. So don’t just start it when it is needed for transactions or interactions with Monero. There are also very accessible methods for this, such as PiNodeXMR, which easily converts an SBC such as RaspberryPi into a secure Monero full node.

• Use Tor and a known trusted Tor node, e.g. hashvaultsvg2rinvxz7kos77hdfm6zrd5yco3tx2yh2linsmusfwyad.onion from hashvault Pool.

• Use VPN (and a known trusted node)

explain the need of a ban list? And how it works?

Adding the ban-list to your Monero GUI wallet or your Monero node prevents connections from being made to other nodes that are suspected of harming the Monero network. You don’t have to add a ban list, it’s voluntary, just an official recommendation. But everyone who adds a ban-list contributes to the security of Monero.
