This will be interesting to follow closely, I just hope the arguments move to digested data and proper analysis, we all want Nostr to succeed independent of the side we are taking

🚨 Monero Debate on Consensus Mechanism Shift:
Contributors are actively discussing a potential transition from PoW to proof-of-stake (PoS) for Monero, drawing parallels to Zcash's recent changes.
Proponents argue it could address scalability issues and reduce energy consumption while maintaining privacy, but critics warn it might undermine Monero's decentralization and fungibility core tenets that have kept XMR in the top 30 by market cap.
This conversation is gaining traction in forums, with some fearing a drop in value similar to Zcash's trajectory.
No formal proposal has been tabled yet, but it's a hot topic in the Monero Research Lab.
What your thoughts?

People ask me often if Cake Wallet is good,
My answer: it is!, but, as a privacy middleware wallet, specially if you are transacting with Bitcoin.
Cake Wallet @nprofile…j73l now supporting coin join and silent payments for Bitcoin has done a lot more than most Bitcoin wallets, only Samurai Wallet used to be that privacy oriented while it could.
Why?
No decent seed signer (HW) support. To the best of my knowledge as I write this post, it only supports Ledger, which is, probably the worst Seed Signer considering the scandals of that company.
Some think this is not a big deal, IMO, it is, hence only for pocket cash and as a middle ware while transacting, same used to be with Sanourai Wallet.
Now, while I have not seen plans to support Trezor or Cypherock or Tangem (all HW supporting XMR), there is a work in progress to support a very good one: Keystone. That would be a game changer, if that hapoens soon... EXCELLENT!

Every time I observe the #Monero brotherhood engaged in a discussion with Bitcoin cultists I wonder why they do that. useless and a waste of time. I suggest, mute and block and ignore.I used to try helping years ago but realized that you can't have a logical discussion with a person that is in a Bitcoin cult, same with a Monero person that thinks that everything else is garbage. Not worth it discussing.
Most Bitcoiners use Monero and do not speak up, personally, I do not know any Bifcoiner that doesn't, there, we just need to add value to the community with knowledge articlea and build more.
I have a wish lfor Monero & Nostr:
1. A Nostr oriented to Monero for zaps with a market place and gift cards, maybe Cake Wallet can make it happen with a grant to some genius Dev that take Amethyst and fork it into a Nostr Client with a cool name. Privacy first
What you guys think about ZANO?

If you haven't heard about Monero, take 5 and check this clip
Transact with privacy by default, no additional steps are needed, just install a wallet and use it, period

Still green, very little support, but agree, it is an improvement.
