My brain usually begins being productive after 8 pm. If by 10 pm I feel that progress is being made I can go all night. You blink and it's 4 am and there is...
This comfy feeling, being there doing your thing in the middle of the night when it's all quiet and everyone is sleeping, you're listening old nostalgic songs and being like 8000% more productive while remaining 100% chill and contempt.

Yes, running a private node is quite simple, although if you plan making it public, some hardening is advised.
Regarding solo mining, unless you own some serious equipment, I believe it will not sustain a reliable payout frequency. I strongly suggest mining on a pool, especially P2Pool.

Monerobros understand that is vital to create an ecosystem around it to enable a circular crypto economy.
Governments are against real cryptos and forced exchanges to delist it, making onramps more difficult. So ideally users should earn the coin directly and spend it, peer to peer, using dApps.
Meanwhile, Bitcoinbros were glazed by number going up, pumped by tether (fake USD) and ETFs (paper Bitcoin).

Looking good!
More important than design though is the app's trustworthiness. How do you plan of dealing with bots and scammers?
For example, a first time user requesting a ride, and the driver who accepts the ride is actually an Indian using GPS spoofing? It will ruin that users experience with the app and he'll never try it again.
Another example, let's say the payment only happens at the end of the trip, and the rider cancels the trip right at the end? Drivers will get mad and never offer their services again.

The best way is:
1. Mine it on P2Pool, should take a few weeks on a regular PC to get a small amount;
2. Buy it on RetoSwap, use the mined amount to cover deposit of your trade;
3. Spend it, I frequently use it to pay for VPN such as Mullvad.

I'm vibecoding an app, the backend is written in Rust. And it's great because if it compiles after a code change suggestion, then almost certainly it works. If it doesn't compile, I consider it as Rust's feedback of the LLM (the more compiler errors, the worse is the LLM). Rust compiler errors are quite helpful and often one doesn't even need additional prompts to fix them.

Google's ecosystem is very sticky. I was able to replace everything but Gmail and YouTube.
Email is my priority now, before its too late because of age verification laws. Most suggestions I received were Protonmail, Tutamail and Mailbox.org.
Currently I'm using Tutamail for the secondary email (no-KYC stuff) but still need to find a proper replacement for the main email.

Regular versioning is vital. Each incremental change should be tested and recorded with detail in changelog.

Getting rid of gmail is one of the most difficult but important things one can do for a sovereign digital life. It has been my main email for almost two decades. Most of my logins are associated with it, including many services I don't even remember registering.
Most people suggest simply moving to protonmail but although it may be the easiest path, I don't think that's a true solution for the problem. Proton deletes your account if you don't log in the app or via browser for more than 1 year. Imagine being in a comma or simply having a busy/bad year and bam all you had is lost. Tutamail is even worse, it happens in 6 months. The email provider I used when I started mining Bitcoin in 2009 deleted my email where I stored the wallet seed in 2012, to save less than 100 MB on their server. It would be way better if I had backed up in a CD. Imagine how much important data one can easily lose trusting an email provider with inactivity deletion of one year or less.
The best approach for this problem IMHO is having your own domain, hosting your own email server and regularly backing up in your own physical media. However that's too difficult for the vast majority. And the majority also don't think it's necessary, and don't care about Google asking for ID or facial recognition.

Cryptocurrencies should not be considered an investment. Just like the euro or the yen should not also. You can use them as hedge, or make use of the volatility to get some money from speculation, but do not expect any ROI from that.
If you use your money to buy some land and plant tomatos on it, or to buy some cars to rent them, then you should expect some ROI.

And now we easily see why the internet the way it works is not compatible with the centralized model of 'big tech' companies.
Banks in UAE are supposedly offline due to an Iranian precision strike in AWS data centers.
Imagine during times of distress, such as being stranded in foreign land in mid of war and falling missiles, you rely on f***ing banks and their system won't even load
This will NEVER happen with #crypto (such as Monero). You don't need to rely on no company or bank if you host your node. You don't need authorization, the network just confirms it. There is no such thing as transfer limits, you just use your money.

One of the nicest things in #monero imho is that even if you're a broke-ass nigga with a regular laptop, you can still mine and help the network almost the same as a rich dude with the most expensive setup. Broke-ass nigga will hash around 2kH/s while rich rude will hash around 20kH/s. OK, that's one order of magnitude more, but still negligible at the grand scheme of things. Not like #bitcoin that you're completely out of the race with a regular laptop.

Mate 16% yearly interest is not a walk in the park. To get that return one will have to be exposed to risky, unreliable assets. Also you should consider 4-5% inflation silently corroding that amount. After 10 years of 5% inflation, one would need 3250 USD to purchase the same 2000 USD purchased 10 years before. If it was that easy everyone would be selling their homes and living stress free between resorts on pacific islands.

Today when I arrived at home and started checking the news on my phone, the first thought was like "Please let Monero not be $1000 yet". I know it will go way above that someday, but for some reason I just wish I could buy it again on the $100s range. Maybe it won't happen again, but yes, I try not to think too much about the price.

Before speculating on that, we there monero community must contribute as much as possible to build a circular economy.
The fiat-crypto-fiat bridge is too difficult for 99% of the common people to cross on a daily basis. But if they can earn and spend directly in crypto, that would just easily kick the whole fiat thing to the sidelines.

CEXs mostly operate off-chain (paper monero) so there wouldn't be much more transactions by themselves. But ofc they also facilitate on-ramp and adoption, which could lead to more on-chain transactions. Anyway, transactions is the real number go up we wanna see!

The problem with fiat inflation is that you simply can't trust it. Each institution has a different way to calculate it, one will measure certain things but leave other things off the calculation, another one will average things with arbitrary weights, so on. Central banks and governments have interest in manipulating prices in a way that doesn't align with the interest of the people most of the time. For example, they will print money to keep the stock marketing from crashing, but that will make housing unaffordable, or will print money to keep gas prices low but then unexpectedly electricity prices soar.
But the solution for that in a cryptocurrency is not fixing a hard cap on supply as Bitcoin does. Many of those that were early in Bitcoin, for example who mined it before ASICs arrived, lost their wallets. It will happen to many as well, to be victims of floods or hurricanes, and that paper were they wrote the seed phrase will disintegrate. The drive with that txt will fail, that encrypted file will get corrupted, that email will be hacked or deleted due to inactivity. And one of the biggest problems with crypto right now, in my opinion: many will lose their lives without passing the wealth of their whole life to their loved ones.
Lost coins in a hard capped cryptocurrency means it is actually deflationary. We have never lived in a deflationary society. It can be actually way worse than low, controlled inflation. If everyone knows for certain their coins will always be worth more the next day, the incentive is to save the most. They who spend are dumb and will be mocked by holders. Minimum spending means economic activity will slow down, less jobs will be created and people will earn less. That's just something no one want.
Tail emission in Monero is a brilliant way to solve at least part of the problems caused by lost coins. I still want to see how the cryptocurrency community will deal with wills and inheritance, without compromising self-custody.
