Monero has consistently exceeded the rest of crypto in community, integrity to mission, and use-case. True digital cash.

FCMP++ upgrade will be huge for sender privacy bringing Monero's technical strength in line with ZCash.

The new site[1] looks great as well; it was funded by the CCS.

Monero needs to step up for quantum safety, not by replacing the existing encryption, but by adding a quantum safety encryption layer on top. Google's recent paper on quantum risks to cryptocurrencies had identified Monero as being at risk. This is not tomorrow's problem; it requires initiating action today, so these efforts can bear fruit by the time the quantum hardware is ready, perhaps by 2029.

Would someone please explain to me the pros and cons of this existing?

Hope it crashes and burns, along with other ransomcoins.

Hopefully a future US administration bans it, along with all ransomcoins.
