@nprofile…xe2g and I gave him a little light teasing and he completely crashed out and reported us as spam
I’m checking your established image defaults first, then I’ll generate the caricature directly. I’m using the image-generation skill for the artwork and Personal Context solely to recover those defaults.

No doubt those millions of daily transactions will materialize any time now.
I'll just use monero if they take it.
That seems like "perspective" to me.
Badass. Hope he sees it your way.
The 1999 mockumentary "Jackie's Back" stars Tim Curry and has a brief cameo by Dolly Parton.
Yeah
I DO live in the woods.
Maybe get used to the fact that some of us live this and avoid 3rd party footprints as much as possible.
If my exchange counterparty requires identification that is a decision I can make.
But even if I decide to transact with that person, there are still good reasons to use payment network that does not require identification.
Your "fuck it, the merchant requires ID so it doesn't matter" attitude is defeatist.
You CAN argue that it doesn't affect your privacy if BOTH Visa and United have your purchase information,
rather than just United?
Nobody's going to be convinced by that, but I support your right to make idiotic statements.
Supposed "bitcoiners" arguing AGAINST using private payment networks for kyced purchases are telling on themselves.
This was the whole point all along. This is why we #Bitcoin.
Bitcoin allows us to *make payments* without kycing yourself or using a trusted intermediary and leaving a record tying the purchase to your IRL identity,
EVEN if the *end merchant* requires ID.
But bitcoiners these days are so fucking cucked and used to the idea that their Bitcoin payments are completely transparent and tied to their IRL identity,
they think NOT revealing their IRL identity to the payment network is something fringe and noteworthy.
"Why would you want to hide your identity from the network if the merchant is requires ID?" 🤡
Get on the fucking program ffs
#nevent1q…vgax
Lol
whether it matters to you personally or not, it is positive for privacy to NOT have a record of your purchase sitting around with Visa or Zelle or whomever
The fact you're even arguing against that is fucking ridiculous
When you pay with a credit card, venmo or zelle or whatever you are giving your purchase information to the payment provider AND the merchant.
If you pay with cash or Monero or a gift card only the merchant knows.
It's obviously a privacy gain.
That's what he doesn't want to recognize.
At least I can explain how privacy from a payment provider is different from privacy from a merchant
and why tail inflation isn't the same thing as infinite supply.
but keep working on it son,
you'll get there.
It's just so normalized that with any online purchase you make, you have to kyc yourself with the payment processor.
Even bitcoiners don't understand that Bitcoin fixes this.
It says a lot about the normalization of the lack of privacy.
They don't even stop to think about it, just ree "that's not private"
But obviously there are privacy advantages to using monero or cash or gift cards or whatever over those other payment methods.
And the fact you refuse to acknowledge it indicates YOUR OWN derangement syndrome, not ours.

AI slop warning :
It seems paradoxical at first, but there's a real distinction.
**The short version:** showing ID links the purchase to *you* at the merchant. A private payment method prevents the purchase from also being linked to *you* at your bank, the payment network, and downstream data buyers. You're not achieving anonymity — you're reducing the number of separate parties who hold the full chain.
**The specific advantages:**
1. **Your bank doesn't learn what you bought.** With a card, your bank sees the merchant, amount, and date — and banks categorize, retain, and sometimes sell transaction data. Cash means the bank only sees an ATM withdrawal (or nothing at all if you already had cash).
2. **No payment-network record.** Visa/Mastercard/Amex independently log every transaction. That's another structured, searchable, long-retained database linking you to the purchase. Cash or prepaid eliminates that.
3. **Data brokers lose a feed.** Credit card transaction data is actively sold to data brokers and aggregators. Merchant ID logs generally aren't (yet). So the "who bought what" data that circulates in the commercial data economy is reduced.
4. **Smaller breach surface.** The merchant might get breached regardless (they have your ID info). But paying cash means there's no *additional* breach surface at the payment processor, and no card number to steal.
5. **Weaker forensic trail.** Bank records are structured, easily subpoenaed, and kept for years. A merchant's ID-check log — if one even exists — is typically less structured, harder to search across merchants, and may be purged on a shorter schedule.
**The honest caveat:** if the merchant logs your ID alongside the item purchased and retains that log, the privacy gain is partial. You've reduced *propagation* (fewer parties, less structured data) but not the core fact that the merchant knows. It's defense in depth, not a wall.
So: the advantage isn't "nobody knows" — it's "fewer parties know, in less durable formats, with less ability to aggregate across your other purchases." Whether that's worth the hassle depends on what you're buying and who you're worried about.
As opposed to what? Your credit card? Bitcoin?
OBVIOUSLY there are still privacy advantages *from the payment processor*
(EVEN if the merchant still needs kyc)
Its really sad y'all don't understand this.
The number of smooth brained "why would you use monero for a kyced purchase" replies is concerning.
Even if the hooker wants to see ID, maybe I still dont want to Venmo her.
ya dig?
#nevent1q…szhc
Your non-AI generated posts are boring
Why?
Because in addition to giving your ID to the hotel or airline you SHOULD give it to the payment processor also?
If they do it the way Travala does, you only need to provide a name and email address.
And hey, newsflash
There are still good reasons to use a privacy coin for a kyced purchase.
Like Meyer, once again you have nothing worthwhile to add to the conversation.
This is becoming extremely predictable.
Theres nothing larpy about monero privacy.
I suggest you sit down when the conversation is about technical stuff.
A "branch" is also being generous. Shit is on a dead twig 😅
They are ferocious, fast, and mean as fuck if you piss them off.
This one is too high for me to reach. I'm hoping the tiny branch they built it on doesn't snap before winter since it's around my goat pen. I normally wouldn't mind them in the woods.

Got covered in "mud" during the ferrier visit for the donkeys today.
Hit up @nprofile…d5tl to clean that "mud" that gets on you during the day off.
The soap is dope.
