<v​ostoemisio:matrix.org> Hey guys,

<v​ostoemisio:matrix.org> First script draft for Introductory video refresh below. I think it's short enough to just post it straight here in the chat, let us know what you think:

<v​ostoemisio:matrix.org> Financial privacy is important for everyone. However, in today's growing digital world, companies, governments, and individuals can have their data compromised. Monero is a decentralized solution to this – it is digital cash that focuses on keeping financial transactions secure and untraceable. It is easy to use because its privacy features are built into the protocol. These spe<clipped message>

<v​ostoemisio:matrix.org> cial cryptographic techniques are used to hide details, like how much Monero is being sent and who is involved in the transaction. Monero automatically protects your privacy – but, if someone wants to share their information, they have the choice to do so. Privacy can help individuals avoid price discrimination or government overreach, and businesses can enjoy a peace of mind kn<clipped message>

<v​ostoemisio:matrix.org> owing that their operations remain confidential. Additionally, Monero’s mining algorithm, which creates 0.6 XMR every two minutes, lets anyone with a regular computer participate, and the innovative scaling design keeps transaction fees low and stable. Monero is open source, with a thriving community of passionate developers and dedicated freedom advocates. Take back control of <clipped message>

<v​ostoemisio:matrix.org> your finances and start using Monero today.

for comparison, here is the current script:

To most people, financial privacy is very important.

But banks, big corporations, and even governments are having their records compromised.

The undeniable conclusion is that there is no safe place to conduct transactions.

Well, there wasn’t one. Meet Monero. Monero is a secure, private, untraceable currency.

WIth Monero, you are your own bank. Only you control and are responsible for your funds.

Monero is private. This means businesses can keep their suppliers in secret. As well as citizens escape government repressions and nosy neighbors or crooks.

Monero can also be selectively transparent and you can choose who you want to see the transactions.

Monero is dynamically scaleable, which makes it very different from a bitcoin. Also, the block reward will never drop below 0.3 XMR and the nominal inflation will stay at 0.3 XMR per minute.

Monero is decentralized. It has an active development community of over 30 contributors.

Take back control of your finances and start using Monero today.

I think the current script does a better job of both a) presenting the problem and b) pitching the solution (Monero). If anything, I'd put even more emphasis on the surveillance we're exposed to on a daily basis (credit card companies tracking purchases, social credit scores, etc) without sounding paranoid. Maybe even mention how most

cryptocurrencies offer less privacy than a traditional bank account.

The disappearance of cash and CBDCs could also be mentioned

<v​ostoemisio:matrix.org> I like the current script too and would be happy to adjust the factuals in it and move on, up to the community

I took a stab at it: pastebin.com/0tdY7aVc

which means that it can grow => allowing it to grow

This means people can => This means people and companies can
