What basic concept am I missing?

Sorry, you'll have to block me to get rid of me. My integrity won't let me watch you push flawed narrative to unsuspecting people and do nothing about it.

That's what I thought... You don't believe Monero is money in real life

Right, I think most people would give a fuck about getting their money, but you do you. Keep it hidden, so well hidden it won't reach you.

You can go make that case with someone that had one of those 118 transactions rolled back in those 36 min of tx history

The 18 block reorg feels like fresh news, though

This was more of a Marxist question than I was expecting

Totally agreed, I like Monero's premise. Unfortunately I can't ignore its shortcomings

Sure, as long as monero users are informed they need 20+ confirmations for a Monero transaction to settle

Precisely, thank you

Sovereignty flows downward, legitimacy flows upward.

Monero's 18-block reorg in September wasn’t just possible, it happened. And it proves that privacy without robust settlement finality is fragile.

Monero is the compromised man's #usd
