You're always spot on! Keep telling the truth to the collectivists/statists here in the fedi verse brother ๐Ÿซถ

Maybe, but it also could've been that I didn't really want to argue with statists as it's mostly a waste of time ;)

So I got some stats from one of the bigger vendors at PorcFest this year:
Percentage of revenue:
Cash 72.2%
Goldbacks 11.77%
Monero 5.42%
Silver 4.44%
Zelle 2.69%
Bitcoin Lightning 1.82%
Bitcoin Cash 0.62%
Litecoin 0.56%
Bitcoin 0.47%

The vendor accepts any crypto. Over the years he also received Dash, XRP, Doge, TFuel and ETH.

The percentage of crypto sales in general was:
~7% in 2022
~9% in 2023
~9% in 2024

So the numbers, only looking at crypto, are:
XMR 61.0%
BTC LN 20.5%
BCH 7.0%
LTC 6.3%
BTC 5.3%

Holy! I might be a bit late to the party, but I just checked the recent numbers from ShopInBit.com for june:

#Monero 74,54 % ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿฅณ
#Bitcoin 23,64 % ๐Ÿ˜‚
#LightningNetwork 1,73 % ๐Ÿคฃ
FIAT 0,08 %

Also they said if Monero surpasses the volume of Bitcoin in the next two month, they change their bio to "Europe's biggest Bitcoin and Monero Store" (which should obviously name Monero first but whatever xD).

Btw the numbers for coincards.com show a similar but not as devastating picture:

#XMR: 34.4%
#BTC (Onchain): 25.96%
#USDC: 20.20%
#ETH: 9.84%
#LTC: 2.49%
#Solana: 2.31%
#Dogecoin: 2.09%
#LightningNetwork: 2.08%
#USDT: 0.58%
#Dai: 0.04%
#Matic: 0.01%
#Dash: 0%

Interesting article about SimpleX chat's security design/considerations - monero.town in c/[email protected]

I would say yes. You download the app (playstore, appstore or fdroid), install it. Then on first time opening it you need to choose a pin for the app and an username for your first profile. Then you can start chating. The gui is pretty similar to signal. And it works pretty good so far. I had problems with calls last time I tried (but a few month back it worked).

I was kind of blown away to what length the developers go to ensure your communication is as safe/secure as possible (while still delivering a very useable app).
