i’m going with the fake money for criminals, cuz sometimes the criminal in question is a trans person trying to get their medicine
to my great annoyance, almost all diy hrt online can only be bought using crypto. and wow does it make you hate cryptobros to have to navigate an ecosystem clearly designed for speculation to get your life-saving medicine 🫠
the homebrewer i was buying from didn’t support this one, so i would’ve had to convert it, which means fees typically
anyways, i don’t really care to maintain a crypto portfolio. i buy the coin when i buy the thing, so volatility isn’t too much of a concern. my main annoyance is at the bonkers fees that exchanges want because they (rightly) recognize cryptobros as a milkable consumer base
Could use localbitcoin.com (or localmonero I guess), though it’s been so long since I’ve been to those sites that I forget if/what kind of cut the website takes.
But yeah, dunno if you can avoid fees when cashing out to fiat. And if you’re using non-kyc sites to swap Monero, they’re likely taking some too, for the convenience and privacy (worth it imo)
Creating a market to exchange crypto and cash enables everyone’s use. Speculative markets are a natural feature of something new like bitcoin and would’ve happened regardless.

Can’t you just hold your money in a stable coin like USDC to avoid the volatility and speculation?

hmm, i’ll look into that next time i buy hrt. thank you!
Localbitcoin and localmonero are arranged peer-to-peer transactions that I think people sometimes even do in person. So be safe.
You’re doing crypto a favor by keeping it at least 1% still anarchist.
that sucks mam.
I hope eventually there are less dumb ways to access the stuff for you.a
You hate the people behind the ecosystem that enables you to get the medicine you require?
i hate the people who turned a way to pay for things anonymously into a stock market.
