Oh brother 🙄

Can’t speak for other cryptos (generally stay away), but Monero at least has a track record of being actually private/anonymous (unlike btc) and generally doesn’t fluctuate in price nearly as much as others (something the devs try to design into it). Several trusted privacy-focused services (VPNs, VoIP, etc.) accept it as a payment method. If I want to donate to Lemmy, I’d rather do so in a way that keeps my bank from knowing the details and keeping a record of that for who knows how long.

Yes, pretty easy - that’s exactly how I use it
