Building an L2 shouldn't be as controversial as people make it. If you don't trust it then stick to the mainnet has always been my opinion. And with monero it's still not going to have tracking and logs like many other protocols. It would also take some stress off the mainnet and allow devs more time to make stable solutions as traffic grows. As long as the core of XMR stays completely private, stable and efficient it's a win.

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. -Revelation 6:8

Whoever is making these is awesome. Making it easy to show normies will only increase the pressure on these pigs. Or at least we can hope it will.

Really interested to see XMR Grease payments become a thing. If it retains the anonymity of XMR & provides instant settlement would be a game changer. Would still use the mainnet for large & private txn it would be cool to be able to pay and go for small txn without the wait. https://github.com/grease-xmr/grease

$11 for a bar? Those profit margins were crazy.

Crazy thing just happened I pulled my phone out of my pocket and it's been in there locked for a while. On the screen is something about my venmo card. So thinking it's a widget I close it and I'm greeted with my home screen. I just bypassed my pin unlock! I think it has to do with the pixel swipe to the right at a glance thing because that was open and I swiped it away. Then when I pulled it back out my venmo card screen was opened. I'm 99.9% sure I didn't unlock it as I have a long password and no biometric unlocked. Is there a way to get a log of what happened recently and send to Android because this really worried me?

All my local irl P2P crypto people are gone or no longer selling :( . Gonna finally have to learn how to use retoswap and bisq. Need to find the local colleges cryptocurrency club too so I can possibly meet others who are willing to do P2P deals. But they seem to be inactive or at least not posting on their accounts.
