Localmonero is closed, but the future of Monero is "bright"!

The closure of Monero's largest P2P platform could have an impact on the purchase and sale of XMR, the most strongest cryptocurrency focused on privacy. Nevertheless, the Localmonero team is convinced that the future of the ecosystem is on another growth course.

" localmonero has been around for Monero. Fortunately, the Monero ecosystem has been heavily matured in these years, says the announcement.

Part of the optimism is due to the potential for projects such as the decentralized stock exchanges (Dexs) Haveno and Serai. Atomic Swaps and Full Chain Membership Proofs (FCMP) are the other important developments that are likely to strengthen the Monero protocol.

Despite these prospects, Monero and other privacy coins have been exposed to increased official control and stock exchange lists in the past few months.
