I don't know how to name this I am basically new to crypto and I want to invest in it.so can you guys provide with in depth guides and tutorials on how to get started and what not please?I'm interested mainly in monero.since I don't understand anything and I am asking for guides, tutorials and help.I mainly want to accomplish the following>Keep my wallet private and inaccessible until I want to spend or deposit money.>Total privacy as in I don't want to give out my id card and/or debit card to load money>I want to load money in cash as in not use my bank account or debit cardI'm new to all of this so sorry if I'm ignorant
>>62499099>provide with in depth guides and tutorialsThe idea is that you do some initial research and then ask more informed questions. Why don't you consult some magical AI first?
>>62499099Check out Monero Talk and Monero Community Working Group etc. on YouTube and just watch a ton of videos and guides as a start. Based choice but don't do anything until you have an extreme understanding of it all. One even minor mess up and you are not private. Good luck and godspeed being a sovereign life liver!
>>62499217I don't know friend I barely trust the results from search engines hell they don't even give me anything worthwhile or satisfying hence asking here.and yeah I did give AI a try but it kept going around in circles in regards to what I want because surprise surprise it uses the same results(faggit A.K.A reddit) that are trash as a source of info to base it's answers from.
>>62499099You want maximum privacy for newcomers bitch? Don't buy crypto. There. I just saved you from -80% EOY, and nobody will ever know. Your privacy is secured. What kind of fucking idiot is looking to get into crypto in 2026 lmfao...
>>62499099>want to load money in cash as in not use my bank account or debit cardLmao babby's first moneylaundering thread? Fuck off nigger. Yes, nigger. You're a literal nigger, not a figurative one. You're selling drugs for a $0.50 margin and you cant stop touching your pile of coke. Pathrtic loser

>>62499270>>62499272>>62499275>>62499277Why is this karen so butthurt? kek
>>62499649I just enjoy mocking retards on /biz/Not my fault babby wants to put his "hard earned" drug money through 20 e-laundering services just to mix-n-match his way to becoming a Monero bagholder. If that doesnt make you kek I dont know what will!
>>62499099See >>62427591>Keep my wallet private and inaccessible until I want to spend or deposit money.https://rentry.org/store_xmr_securelyA dedicated android 12+ device is probably the simplest yet still secure option. Tablets are technically more secure than phones.>Total privacy as in I don't want to give out my id card and/or debit card to load money>I want to load money in cash as in not use my bank account or debit cardCash by mail on retoswap is your only real option.
>>62499737I mined eth decred and xmr back then when it was profitable, i am still up a lot and ll go up a lot more again, your bottom signaling is just strenghtens his intuitions.
>>62499846Thank you, kind stranger!the retoswap thing I don't get it thoughyou mean I have to give my wallet address along with the money I want to deposit by mail kind of like what mulvad vpn does?
>>62499922Giving out your wallet address is no problem since nobody can see how much xmr you have or even whether you received transactions unless you give them a viewkey. Yes you can deposit by mail. Theres escrow and arbitrators in case theres an issue.
>>62499846You can also use a Bitcoin ATM depending on where you live and then do RetoSwap/Eigenwallet for BTC/XMR. If you can bear the fees
Here's my monero story.Making purchases from an online vendor for several years. Always used Western Onion. Simple. One short trip to the local drug store, a few minutes at the kiosk, and done. Then one day I get ready to check out and the vendor says "No more Western Onion". Shit. They have a list of payment methods. BTC, Litecoin, etc. Down the list I see Monero. I had seen enough to know there was a "fuck the government" narrative I liked that went with Monero, so I decided I would venture into it.I had never owned crypto. Never had a need and am not interested in speculation. So it was all new to me. Do the research. Need an exchange to trade USD for XMR. But only a few exchanges deal in XMR. But AssKraken still deals in the outlaw coin, so I set up an account. And I set up a wallet. Buy some XMR, withdraw to my wallet, and voila! little numbers appear in my portfolio. I'm feeling like I'm not as dumb as I look. I go ahead and make the purchase using XMR. The purchase involved two sub-vendors. One delivered immediately. One got lost in transit but the vendor made good on it. So, first XMR transaction worked and I didn't have to leave Mommy's basement!A few months pass, I have some XMR left in my wallet, and I go to make another purchase from the same vendor. Now they don't take Monero! Fucking pussies! I send my XMR back to Kraken. I could exchange for BTC but then I have to set up another wallet. So I decide to just exchange for USD into my bank account.Not sure where to go with it now. I guess the point of the story is this question: is monero slowly getting shut out of commerce?
>>62500022What vendor is that supposed to be?
>>62500022>is monero slowly getting shut out of commerce?Yes and no. Mostly noThe CEX options are getting very thin, so online vendors have been moving to BTC/LTC/etc strictly for liquidity. The good news is that DEX options are being built that should bring the liquidity back>ETH <-> XMR atomic swaps>BasicSwapDex getting a lite mode; no more full chain download for each chain you wish to swap on>Thorchain in a race with Serai to have an AMM DEXAnd so on. The future looks bright.
>>62500102I feel like cex delistings are a non-factor since swapping virtually any coin for xmr is a trivial matter. Maybe im naive
>>62500095Mind your own bizness.
>>62500106Yeah, buy BTC or eth on a regular exchange then swap to XMR. I've been using eigenwallet for the swap>>62499099Look on the website, there's a guide to generating a paper wallet offline. For best privacy you should run a full node.What country are you in?
>>62501184Bulgaria I have seen bitcoin/crypto atms(or at least it looks like an atm) in my city so would that help with privacy transactions or the privacy I want?
>>62501239Check on their website. Don't know how it is there, but all my crypto atms have lame ass kyc requirements. DL or passport required to use
>>62501298KYC requirement? what is that?>DL or passport required to useSo I would need to use my id card?
>>62501396KYC is "know your customer". If a place has KYC it means they want your id or something similar.
>>62500106Lmao... how can you people still be this stupid and naive? Well, that's why you still like crapto I guess. Koolaid drinkers.>hmm, there might be 200 hurdles to entry but I don't see the problem! It's still easy
Top fucking kek you faggots are literally helping a bulgarian scammer launder money. Troons, all of you
I definitely report it to interpol theyll never run a check on his ip to figure out his crimes
>>62499649>>62499649He is a stinky pathetic Jeet who gets into every general, shits up the place, then sockpuppets as other anons saying he is a bot. ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING. A total tapeworm.ALSO- do not use the new windows OS it has zero privacy and key logs every single thing you do. VPNs will not protect you. This is a growing problem either use Linux, or an encrypted phone OS if you live in a spying nanny state that hates its residents.
