If only I could pay for my groceries/gas/utilities/taxes/loans with crypto. Alas! I have to convert it back into fiat currency first.

Yes, there is a violent mafia that has a monopoly on currency and credit at this time. This is changing slowly as more and more rational people realize the scam that is being perpetrated.

Domain registration, DNS, VPN

Donations: grapheneos, briar, molly.im, Tor, eff

Just a few things I regularly use crypto for today.

Never heard of molly or briar before, thanks for the recommendations. What VPN do you use?

[–] jet@hackertalks.com 1 points 5 months ago

Mullvad, airvpn accept monero.

Take a look at privacy guides, a lot of the software they recommend lines up with the Monero philosophy

"Regularly" how regularly do you get a VPN? Or donate to TOR?

Well, I can pay for my groceries, gas, and utilities with crypto already. Can't do the loans yet though.
