Cash or monero.
Not everything accepts crypto currency sadly, and cash yea. Standard solution, but you can’t use cash for online payments.
No, but you can use it to buy a prepaid Credit Card and register it with bogus info.
That is why it is important to promote the use of crypto and use crypto as much as possible. There are many online stores and services that take crypto.
If you wish to only use Monero but a store only takes bitcoin, use a swap service when paying.
If your purpose for using cash or Monero is privacy, that’s fine. If your purpose is to avoid paying fees to third parties just for the privilege of paying by a certain method, the swap service just takes the place of Visa/Mastercard.
Monero or monero, anything else isn’t private and a scam.
lol nope that’s why it’s important to forget the scam of crypto exists
the idea of decentralized currency is great and has merit, but the most current iteration got hijacked by a bunch of con artists.
And most of them aren’t anonymous at all. You can correlate transactions pretty quickly, because every transaction is on the chain. You can track where every bitcoin went. As soon as you break one link you can follow the chain.
Good luck doing that with cash.
Blockchain has a few - really only a few - somewhat compelling use cases. Currency isn’t one of them.
Monero solves all these problems, it’s the closest we have ever gotten to digital cash.
It’s untrackable. Nobody can see what you spent, and what you have. It’s private
It’s fungible. Each unit has no history, so it can’t be tainted, a dollar is a dollar is a dollar. Applies here
If you hold your own wallet, which you should, you don’t have the risk of an exit scam. Because you’re holding your own coins. What’s the expression, not your wallet not your coins?

Monero’s value is a roller coaster ride
It’s called “cash”.
Cash
However there is a project called gnu taler that seems promising. http://taler.net/
Just use cash. Small businesses won’t lose a percentage of their transactions this way and you help ensure it stays in circulation for longer.
Cash has its own disadvantages (for businesses). But yes, as a privacy option, it is one of the few.
http://kycnot.me and Monero will let you pay for things very privately.
If you want to bridge to traditional credit card payment systems, then your going to have to give up privacy usually (getting a string of prepaid credit cards is a pain, and some of the evil online subscription houses wont accept prepaid cards)
Is that like https://anonshop.app/?
Yeah. The site I linked is just a list of services. The site you linked is a single service
Was going to suggest monero, but others beat me to it
There’s a button for that: ⬆️
Okay
I’ve not been able to find anything similar to Privacy.com in the EU. I also read that Privacy.com makes it difficult to delete your account and they aren’t clear on what they use your data for. I would assume that using a card via your bank would be more secure since they’re bound by finance privacy laws (I think). I’ve heard of bunq.com, but personally have never used the service, so can’t give an opinion on them, but maybe that’s what you’re looking for.
Goldbacks. Not popular by many means
