Monero, fiyatında yükseliş yaşadıkça, güçlü bir döngü başlatır. İşleyişi şu şekildedir:
1. Daha yüksek fiyat, daha büyük piyasa değeri demektir ve o da daha likit bir piyasa anlamına gelir.
2. Kripto varlıklar sıralamasındaki yükselişi, FOMO'yu (Fear of Missing Out; fırsatı kaçırma korkusu) tetikler ve ivmeye ivme kazandırır.
3. Yeni kullanıcılar, Monero'nun en büyük silahı olan mahremiyet varsayılanlılığını keşfeder ve bir kez gördükleri bu özelliği bir daha asla görmezden gelemezler.
4. İhtiyatlı olmayı gerektiren ve hâliyle mahrem tutulması gereken büyük miktarlardaki para hızlı ve yoğun bir şekilde akın eder.
5. Monero, finansal varlıklar sıralamasında ilk 20'ye girerken, en açgözlü borsalar bile onu “bir şekilde” yeniden listelemeyi tekrar düşünmek zorunda kalır.
6. Evet, değeri düşebilecektir — ancak benzersiz bir kullanış/satış niteliği (Unique Selling Point) olan coin'lerin her düşüşü, bir sonraki yükselişi hazırlar.
7. Monero sıradan bir coin değildir; Kali Yuga Varlığı'dır — kaos çağında gelişmek için yaratılmıştır.
Mahremiyet kaçınılmazdır. Monero kaderdir.
Crypto-anarchism is not a call for chaos; it is a rejection of centralized coercion. Anarcho-capitalism is not a utopia, but a vision of a social order where property is not seized by force. Agorism is not passive escape, but a conscious withdrawal from state monopolies. Cypherpunk ideals emerge at the intersection of these traditions: where privacy must be defended technically, not rhetorically. #Monero stands precisely at this intersection.
Monero is not a “coin”; it is a form of disobedience. An attempt to return money to its natural state. A protocol that strips away the moral and political labels imposed on money by states, banks, and blockchain surveillance firms. What Monero does is not concealment—it is the restoration of ownership to its rightful holder. Transparency is one of the great ideological lies of our age. It never flows upward. State budgets, central bank decisions, intelligence funding, and corporate power networks are never truly transparent. Transparency is always demanded downward—from the individual, the merchant, the dissenter, the non-compliant. Monero rejects this asymmetric morality.
The knowledge problem articulated by the Austrian School for over a century finds protocol-level expression in Monero. Knowledge is local; when centralized, it becomes distorted. Price signals only function when free actors interact without fear of surveillance. Traceable money turns markets into regulated simulations. Monero restores the private interaction upon which genuine markets depend.
From an agorist perspective, Monero completes the missing link of counter-economics. Untaxable, uncensorable, permissionless exchange is impossible without fungible and untraceable money. Otherwise, every “free” transaction becomes a deferred confession. Monero is money that refuses to confess.
From an anarcho-capitalist standpoint, Monero transforms property from an abstract right into a material reality. If an asset can be frozen, traced, or discriminated against based on its history, it is not yours—it has merely been entrusted to you. Monero makes ownership unconditional.
Cypherpunks do not demand rights; they build systems. History has shown that rights are suspended in times of crisis, while infrastructure remains. Financial surveillance begins as a “temporary security measure” and ends as permanent control. Monero breaks this cycle. It trusts mathematics, not law.
Monero’s radical nature lies not in privacy itself, but in privacy by default. Privacy is not an option; it is the baseline. Just as every conversation should not be recorded, every transaction need not be observed. This basic human intuition has been systematically erased by modern finance. Monero reclaims it.
States do not fear Monero because of crime. The true threat is scalable disobedience. Monero is dangerous not because it hides individuals, but because it limits the power to see. That is why Monero is perceived not as illegal, but as ungovernable.
Without privacy, there is no property. Without property, there is no market. Without markets, freedom is merely a slogan. Monero is one of the rare systems that completes this chain end to end. It does not promise. It does not persuade. It simply works. And as long as it works, freedom ceases to be theoretical and becomes a lived reality.
Monero is not a promise of the future. It is a rupture that has already begun.

The Lightning Network cannot scale and never will. This is why everyone is building fake centralized hybrid Lightning bullshit and using custodial apps. There are many reasons for this, here are some.
Liquidity: Each channel requires funding, twice. That capital is frozen until you splice, rebalance, or close. As adoption grows, the liquidity requirement grows quadratically. As on-chain fees grow, cost of using LN goes up while security assurances go down.
Complexity: Complexity breeds centralization. Most users do not tolerate the base LN experience. Most devs do not tolerate depending on complex buggy self-custodial implementations. You've practically got to be an entire Lightning stack business to reliably provide a self-custodial product. Costs rise, leading to severe centralization at scale.
Routing: Portrayed as the coolest part of LN, but truly the worst aspect due to liquidity requirements, uncertainty, complexity. Results in hubs, then centralization at scale.
Breaking changes: Constant new complexity requires node runners to always run new, potentially insecure software. New channel types, new payment protocols, all destroy interoperability.
Obscure Hacks Required: If you want to provide a LN wallet or app you need to learn all the weird solutions, like LNURL, misc patches & tools, that people hacked in because LN protocol devs and LN implementation companies rarely care about the user space (probably because it is hopeless). We get weird derivative things hacked into others, like subscriptions into one specific payment protocol, but not into others; or, three different weird email format nicknames that arent actually emails, and are all implemented in trusted ways. This results in LN businesses and LN devs requiring arcane understanding, and endless patience, in the LN world.
Regulatory trap: Running a LSP business safely requires experienced lawyers for a constantly changing compliance landscape. New hybrid LN services like Spark, Liquid swaps, and taproot-asset edge nodes, will draw regulatory scrutiny the moment something goes wrong, or becomes too large.
Lightning is somewhat cool and useful, but it doesn't actually fix Bitcoin payments at scale, so much as kinda-sorta provide efficiencies as long as you don't actually scale too much...
TLDR?
The concept of a high-frequency bitcoin channel is sound, and proven now.
The concept of a bitcoin-based routing network as an efficiency has not been proven, and, arguably, has failed.
And ultimately, what matters most is the final nail in the coffin:

An unfortunate consequence of the popular crypto press' habitual oversimplification of #Monero as a "privacy coin" is that people tend to over-emphasize privacy and underappreciate fungibility.
Fungibility is why the privacy happens. However, privacy is only a subset of what fungibility provides. There are benefits of fungibility for those people out there who have zero concern for privacy.
Thanks to the efforts of blockchain surveillance organizations, every address and every transaction of every transparent ledger now automatically include a social credit score as part of their permanent metadata baggage. You can't opt out of that. So, the actions of the people who owned a transparent coin before you owned it and also after you owned it, can and will transfer to your reputation. It doesn't matter if you care about privacy or not -this is something that nobody with an honorable reputation will knowingly tolerate.
It isn't really the ethos of the Monero community to tell other people what to do with their money, thus you do you.
I will observe, though, that the asset diversification that Markowitz found to be a Schelling point back in 1952, would not necessarily have to be be accomplished within crypto, if one came to their own conclusion that the sufficiently high quality assets within crypto needed to diversify within crypto, simply do not exist. In this case the use of XMR as an exclusive representative asset of all crypto would be balanced at the overall portfolio level via prudent allocation to other asset classes.
