Education is key. One thing I think a lot of people still don’t realize is how much easier wallets like @cakewallet are making it to explore crypto beyond just BTC or XMR. If you want to buy a meme coin, you can import the token’s contract address from a reputable source like @dexscreener, add it to Cake Wallet, and buy, swap, and hold it directly from the wallet. This is one reason I like what solana:H9pPKejchJ9LCWpb1P8p4BmrjzCFARUmA7XtJK4pVhCZ is doing. Holders earn rewards in wrapped monero:native, creating an opportunity for people who came for the meme to start learning about Monero and privacy. Those wrapped XMR rewards can then be swapped/bridged into native XMR through supported routes and held in Cake Wallet. That’s the bigger opportunity I see with memes: use the culture to get people through the door, then give them a reason to learn. Memes → community → education → adoption. The mask stays on!

Looks like $ZEC is rotating back into $BTC while Bitcoin is rotating into monero:native. People don’t watch the old BTC pairs like we used to, but sometimes they tell the story before the USD charts do. If I were really looking to preserve my wealth and my privacy, I’d choose Monero. I don’t love the ~20-minute wait for spendable funds, but monero:native is genuinely less complicated for someone new to crypto. Privacy is the default. No deciding whether to shield or deshield. I’ve talked to people who have been in crypto for 5+ years and still don’t understand how shielding and unshielding works. That friction matters when you’re trying to onboard normal people. Now you can earn $XMR through solana:H9pPKejchJ9LCWpb1P8p4BmrjzCFARUmA7XtJK4pVhCZ while learning how Monero, privacy, and crypto actually work. Memes can onboard. Education can make people stay. iykyk
