Your point about 1 XMR = 1 XMR is true only for peer to peer transactions. The exchange off ramps have a half life. That is true of probably every cryptocurrency. But you can't pretend that XMR is not just 1 big coin join that can be viewed as such by a bureaucrat as soon as they change their mind.

Monero is programmatically fungible. It is true wherever XMR is traded, p2p or dex or centralized exchange.

Bottom line is you will eventually be in the same boat as coinjoined bitcoin. Just because you can argue it's not overt does not protect you. You either need a massive sea change in the way privacy is viewed or you need a circular economy to spend in.

that isn't true. Kraken is happy to take XMR and exchange it for USD on their fiat offramps for all Americans. They are absolutely not happy to take CoinJoins, and will quickly close your account for ...

1. Coinjoins are absolutely not money laundering. Dumb take.
2. Monero is delisted in several jurisdictions for Kraken. You are completely reliant on the whims of a bureaucrat and it is a matter of time before they delist everywhere for the same reasons they're skittish about coinjoins

1. from the perspective of the financial compliance system, CoinJoins are money laundering (an overt act to conceal the source or destination of funds). 2. Yes, Kraken removes Monero from Europe and Japan, as regulators in those locales do not like it. Yet they still maintain it where it is legal,...
