Have you ever convinced a non-crypto person to use XMR?

The closest I’ve ever gotten was getting someone who was an eth investor to send some eth to a swap address so I could get paid in XMR for something I was selling on FB Marketplace.

I think probably more people would be willing to pay me in XMR but only if there was a dead simple and fast way of acquiring it and using it, which there isn’t.

And then on top of that, it would probably have to be at a discount to offset the trouble for them.

Cake wallet’s buy feature is not fast and simple and you have to KYC up the ass just to find out it doesn’t even work.

The simplest way I thought of was to ask a buyer to meet me at a Bitcoin ATM so they could put their cash in the ATM and I make them send to my address.

Let’s hear some success stories or failure stories, have you ever convinced regular people to use XMR? Whether buying or selling, I’d like to hear it.

    Back when binance supported xmr it was dead simple to get someone you were doing business with to make a binance account and give you a xmr deposit address.

    Local handyman, remote workers, etc. any recurring business relationship could map to this . As long as they saw you as a ongoing stream of revenue they would set it up.
