      I agree. Claims like this need to be checked, or I consider them pure speculation.

      It’s right next to the quote. Homepage of such swapping service. Doesn’t even need a specific section within the site.

    I believe it. This was likely the primary reason why Binance was allowed to get so big in the first place, to be used as a weapon against XMR. They will fail, clowns.

    Pretty odd that CoinMarketCap owned CoinGecko News (https://web.archive.org/web/20240101072011/https://www.coingecko.com/en/news) has zero articles about the Monero situation on their top feed at this time.

    Almost like they do not want any attention on it while the crime is in progress.

    Luckily there still appears to be many exchanges that trade XMR. https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/monero

    Including one called https://nonkyc.io/markets will have to try this just because of the name 😁

      This is factually incorrect. Binance purchased CoinMarketCap in April of 2020. CoinGecko is an independent cryptocurrency data aggregator.

      You are delusional if you think Binance is big to attack XMR.

        Yeah, I definitely don’t think Binance exists solely to target XMR. It exists to try to hammer crypto at large into a traditional centralized legacy banking framework of compliance and control.

        Many involved have and will get filthy rich and powerful and well connected in the process. Some will be sacrificed. This is why the centralized exchanges have been tolerated or encouraged by states around the world.

        People who rely on centralized solutions instead of decentralized ones in this space have some more rude awakenings ahead of them.

          Never said it existed solely to attack XMR.

          Binance was left alone by “regulators” for years until they committed so much fraud that they could be taken over and used as a weapon, against XMR or any other purpose.

          It doesn’t have to try that. Centralized exchanges are better at being exchanges. That’s a fact. The trading fees, latency and barriers to entry are much lower, so people naturally flock to them.

        Binance is big enough to try and attack XMR.

        XMR is the only direct threat to the fraudulent fiat currency system.

        Binance is the only tool they have to launch an easy attack against it. It will not work of course.

          @tusker @WarmApplePieShrek There is no crypto that is a threat to Fiat.

          Monero is a direct threat to *surveillance*

      They will fail, clowns.

      100%

      And then we laugh at them, just as you’re supposed to do with clowns like these.
