I don't know about a "mascot", but they will sue you if you use their logo without permission point your browser over here

MW smells too much like ZEC. Opt-out should be the default. If you're here, you probably know this, but what can we do? It's baked into that shit.

Twitter was garbage long before Space Karen bought it. Is getting off Twitter worth losing the visibility and exposure to Monero? (I don't use that pile, but from what I've heard, it does have a reach.) Just my two cents from a marketing perspective.

This is a conundrum. If you really need fiat and the options recommended by the other folks aren't feasible, XMR->BCH->CEX has worked for me in the past. Granted, I wouldn't say I like doing it that way. XMRBazaar is an excellent choice, and seeing more sellers/buyers would be great. Gift cards, too. Sometimes, you've just got to pay your bills, brother.

Wow... that SEO. Google results show the correct url and duckduckgo shows the phishing. Strange. I wonder how that was accomplished, SEO ninja skills.

Since the dramatic decrease in hashrate[1] on 29/05/24 from ~2.8 GH/s to ~1.8 GH/s as of 01/06/24. This has shaken up the pool distribution[2]; as a result, nanopool now holds ~576 MH/s (30% of the total 1.8 GH/s.)This isn’t a five-alarm fire, but it is mildly concerning. This can potentially repeat the MineXMR 51% scare of 2022[3]. If any of you fine folks would consider mining on a decentralised pool such as p2ool[4], now is the time.

Ps, I am in no way affiliated with p2ool. Happy mining.
