Sometimes I use chatgpt for questions when I don't want to sift through garbage but I detest doing this. This only points out that search engines have got so shit they have to use other shit to get me decent results.
For crypto, mostly it's cryptobros tryna make a quick buck with only some people using Monero on the dark web. I do hope one day we can use Monero to purchase things though.
Yes there are cryptobros speculating on the currency but it doesnt change much IMO. You dont have to wait to buy things with crypto its already there in a lot of places.
Enlighten me with these "a lot of places" where I can use Monero
Not just monero but crypto. Any darkweb market place, most privacy services, a ton of small online sellers accept it as payment for goods. You can buy cards, houses coffees with crypto now. Its not wide spread enough to not have a bank account but you can make a decent amount of payments with it these days especially online.
