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!

Andrea Togni - Privacy, Property, Liberty and the Monero Policy Workgroup
TODAY'S 🎙SHOW: Douglas Tuman interviews Andre Togni.
Andrea is a philosophy and history teacher by day, Monero Policy Workgroup member by night.
The two discuss Andrea's involvement with the Monero Policy Workgroup, why privacy is a necessary condition for the defense and even for the existence of property rights, how governments monopolize trust through education, what the U.S. Treasury's press release on the TornadoCash ban means for the Monero community and much more!
Check out Andrea's "Privacy as invisibility (by default)" presentation at Monerokon
https://github.com/MoneroKon/meta/raw/main/slides/2022/andrea-togni.pdf
On that note, please consider participating in the NYC Privacy Protest this Halloween in Washington SQ Park at 6pm.

Peter Van Valkenburgh — Could Monero be Sanctioned like Tornado Cash
TODAY'S 🎙SHOW: Douglas Tuman interviews Peter Van Valkenburgh who works as research director at CoinCenter. Peter is one of the most well spoken and impactful advocates for creating a positive cryptocurrency regulation landscape and makes some of the strongest legal arguments for why the gov banning of true digital cash-like cryptocurrencies would be unconstitutional.
The two discuss the history of legal issues around crypto, OFAC and the current state of AML regulations, the implications of the Tornado Cash case for the Monero ecosystem, the nuances of sanctioning decentralized exchanges, mixers and smart contracts, Monero vs. Zcash and Bitcoin from a regulatory point of view, and whether or not free speech laws are applicable for computer code and much more! Please note that in the discussion of zcashes memo field being used to comply with travel rule regulations Doug seemed to suggest this is not possible with Monero. This is not completely accurate. Monero still does have tx_extra feature which could effectively be used as memo field, but the monero community at large agrees tx extra should not be used this way since it would cause chain bloat, could affect transaction distinguishability, and is unnecessary due to the benefits of off-chain solutions. Consensus is building around completely deprecating the tx feature and the point Doug was attempting to make is zcash promotes itself as being regulation friendly whereas all of Monero’s design choices are towards being more “cash-like”.
