Monero Talk
Monero Talk broadcasts weekly conversations on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/c/monerotalk) with topical guests to understand what the Monero cryptocurrency is today and what it hopes to become.
We strive to give birth to new Monero users by simply reporting on the facts in our search to answer the question--Is Monero the truest cryptocurrency of them all? In staying true to the Monero ethos, we aim to always be skeptical. While we are Monero Talk by name, and Monero devotees at heart, the intention of the show is to ultimately discover and support the one blockchain that is most aligned with the original cypherpunk and crypto-anarchist ideals that cryptocurrency was born from. And the one that is most likely to succeed at becoming true digital cash. So far, we believe Monero is the one.
Guests include:
The developers and researchers working on the open source core protocol and the cryptography behind it;
The people building the projects and infrastructure supporting the protocol;
Privacy advocates and people building privacy enhancing technologies;
Analysts and investors speculating on Monero's growth;
Journalists and pundits weighing in on Monero's place in the crypto-sphere; and
Respected (sometimes controversial) contributors and community members.
If you enjoyed the show & would like to support us, a donation of any size would be greatly appreciated and would mean so much!

TODAY'S SHOW: In this episode Douglas Tuman speaks with Derrick Broze about his crowd-funded "Pyramid of Power" documentary series. Derek explains that the series, which began as a 2.5-hour presentation in 2018, has evolved into a 17-part documentary exploring various power structures and institutions.
Each episode aims to be easily accessible while covering complex topics like the Federal Reserve, intelligence networks, and different power groups of the past. Derek shares his approach of verifying sources and avoiding speculation, focusing on documented evidence.
They also dive into contemporary issues, particularly discussing Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, and their roles in the emerging technocracy. Derek highlighted concerns about the increasing integration of private technology companies with government power, especially through projects like Palantir. The meeting concluded with a discussion about privacy tools and alternative systems, including Monero, as ways to resist centralized control.

TODAY'S SHOW: In this episode Douglas Tuman interviews Boaz, a Forbes contributor who published a notable article about Monero last month. The discussion explores his background in crypto, starting from his experiences using Bitcoin for business operations in Cuba, to his current role as a writer for various crypto publications.

Boaz shares insights about his experiences in countries like Cuba and Burma where crypto serves practical purposes.

TODAY'S SHOW: In this episode Douglas Tuman speaks with Brandon from the Agorist Network about Agorism, cryptocurrency, and privacy-focused economic systems. Brandon explains that agorism is fundamentally about trading freely outside state control and creating voluntary societies. He discusses founding the Agorist Network and working with notable figures like Wendy McElroy.
The conversation explores the intersection of Monero with Agorist principles. Brandon shares his experience running a mango farm in Mexico since 2021, where he has planted 40-50 Adolpho mango trees. The discussion also covers the upcoming Monerotopia conference in Mexico City and the potential for selling agricultural products through XMR Bazaar using Monero. Throughout the conversation, they discuss the importance of privacy coins, with particular focus on Monero's technical advantages including its tail emission and ring signatures.
