Percentage of revenue:
#Cash 68.99% (was 72.2%)
#Zelle 2.16% (was 2.69%)
#Goldbacks 3.2% (was 11.77%)
#Silver 3.82% (was 4.44%)
#Monero 7.95% (was 5.42%)
#Bitcoin 5.33% (was 0.47%)
#Zano 3.09% (was 0%)
#BitcoinCash 2.73% (was 0.62%)
#FUSD 1.79% (was 0%)
#Zcash 0.41% (was 0%)
#Dogecoin 0.22% (was 0%)
#Ethereum 0.17% (was 0%)
#Litecoin 0.13% (was 0.56%)
#BitcoinLightning wasn't available this year, as the non-custodial setup stopped working (was 1.82%)
The percentage of total crypto sales was:
~7% in 2022
~9% in 2023
~9% in 2024
~22% in 2025
So the numbers, only looking at crypto, are:
#XMR 36.4%
#BTC 24.4%
#ZANO 14.2%
#BCH 12.5%
#FUSD 8.2%
#ZEC 1.9%
#DOGE 1%
#ETH 0.8%
#LTC 0.6%
So Zano coming in hot (probably thanks to the three Zano Foundation guys mostly) and Monero is still leading the crypto pack.
Overall Fiat usage declined ever so slightly (-5%), while precious metal usage declined dramatically (-57%, probably because this year there was no Goldback tent and/or people around).
Though Crypto usage increased a lot (+140%).
Maybe I need to ask more vendors if they collect their stats to get a more general Porcfest overview.
Oh and most vendors accepted Monero. Majority of the few that didn't were onboarded by me. Like the Satoshi film makers, which you can now fund/support using XMR (https://linktr.ee/satoshi.movie)
quotingSo I got some stats from one of the bigger vendors at #PorcFest this year:
