You can also simply just buy any coin then swap it for Monero. This is not the 1990’s anymore where the tyrannical state mafia can threaten people with violence and take something off of “the market” and think it will be gone. They are morons, they have already lost.

Man, I’m concerned. Localmonero’s days are numbered. I think it’s only a matter of time before they get hit with money transmitter license crap like localbitcoins suffered. I think the answer is to decentralize it in some way. It can’t just be a website.

We know the ability to get Monero will not be essentially affected—after all, this is not the first time, nor the second time, when Monero is delisted. It seems reasonable to admit, though, that ultimately the ability/freedom to spend Monero might be limited if legit (e.g. hosting) companies can’t accept it in the future—directly or indirectly because of MiCA etc. Although, what will happen in such a situation may be seen as an interesting experiment.

If no one is accepting Monero in your country, city, or neighborhood, then the fair price is zero.

Closing down fiat ramps is just one thing that regulators might try. Next step would be banning Monero wallets from app stores, or marking Monero as malware or state sanctioned software. Who would want to use Monero then, when the UX is worse than paper cash? People buying drugs can use Venmo and say that they’re buying art commissions or something like that. Or exchange gift cars by mail.
