Like his view on assange btw. (is very topical right now), aknoledging the charges and not going full on tin foil hat while showing all possibilities.
The following despiction of the wiki leaks contents and further examples of other countries are quiet heavy stuff!
@jonas\_h Just brought this book to my attention. Since i got nothing better to do (writing my thesis), i'm about half through now!
Absolutely worth the time (and probable failure of my education)!

I'ts so detailed, i'ts free (consider donating tho), well written, with extensive examples, ...! Thanks Jonas, i have been looking for such a compact way of sharing information about cryptocurrencies for a long time!
@blake
Thanks for the reply, interesting thoughts.
So your saying to not try and retrofit the old systems like fiat and visa but the create an entire parallel plattform.
I mean that kinda what monero and crypto in general is for, but until then you need some form of Transition technology to allow vendors to accept payments in both worlds.
Cakepay is offering something to the business its offering to the user.
Maybe we need something to make accepting crypto easier for the vendors.
Wow thanks, great directory.
Online payments are absolutely a problem but at least to my knowledge there aren’t any „real life“ vendors available in most German cities.
Paying with cash, debit and kredit is no problem, even those stupid bonus or cashback programs, but simply scanning a QR code and paying by wallet ain’t possible.
Maybe it’s a problem of supplying suitable hardware that integrates in the register system?
Or is it just regulations?
Hello #monero Community: Newbie here.
I like monero and its working principle, especially since i'm from the EU, where you can't wipe your ass without first signing some KYC.
My question is: Why do you think Monero is lacking implementation? In my opinion it's hard to get monero (Localmonero or some Exchange) and even harder to spend it, especially once again in the EU where you can't have prepaid Monero Vida cards etc.
Are there any solutions to those problems?
