Monero's Fight for Privacy: Navigating the Changing Regulatory Terrain
summary
Argues regulators can either ban Monero or subvert privacy via laws like GDPR, and lobbying is valuable mainly to buy time for development and community resilience; a loose Monero Policy Working Group submits public consultation responses and advises projects on compliance risks; recommends prioritizing peer-to-peer noncustodial use and Black Market adoption to preserve utility while preparing for worst cases such as the potential to criminalize possession, and urges building tools that work without intermediaries.
