03:26:06 <anonmon777[m]> I have really specific security question. Is this a good place to ask?
03:26:06 <anonmon777[m]> Are there security flaws for using the Monero wallet private key also for a crypto lock login system (https://github.com/monero-ecosystem/Monero-Crypto-Lock)?
06:40:22 <xmrscott> test
06:40:22 <monerobux> Test failed
06:45:33 <xmrscott> test
06:45:34 <monerobux> Test failed
06:48:59 <xmrscott> For me it was easier to just sign out and back in on the Matrix client, that seems to have fixed the Matrix issues across all rooms
06:51:34 <pigeons> There was a problem with the federation that was just solved

12:23:18 <charolastra> wtf is wrong with him?
12:29:08 <Mumuks[m]1> What are his arguments against Monero?
12:36:26 <rottenwheel> charolastra dunno. first he dunks on the community and now he's not that wrong... but still off.
12:37:00 <rottenwheel> Mumuks I believe he outlines them in the clip. Relisten. It is not as strong as Zcash's, which from certain points of view may hold true.
12:37:22 <charolastra> he's talking down on monero forever. i don't get how he can shill a permamine shitcoin
12:39:37 <Mumuks[m]1> <rottenwheel "Mumuks I believe he outlines the"> But what makes zcash somehow stronger also makes it more vulnerable. How is that a good trade?
12:40:20 <rottenwheel> charolastra prolly a sellout. muh zcash foundation paid him his cut. :)
12:40:55 <rottenwheel> <Mumuks[m]1 "But what makes zcash somehow str"> get on next livestream with him and argue with him. :) on paper it can be argued its privacy foundations are better, leaving aside the trusted setup.
12:42:58 <Mumuks[m]1> <rottenwheel "get on next livestream with him "> It is not only the trusted setup. It is also that the total supply can not be checked. And that the maths are so extremely complex, few people have checked them. And the Zcash guy saying that they will leave a way for law enforcement to trace transactions.
12:43:12 <rottenwheel> so... like monero, right?
12:43:35 <Mumuks[m]1> Monero total supply can be checked
12:43:39 <rottenwheel> because when you audit monero supply you only account for block rewards, not the txs. generated afterwards. :)
12:44:10 <rottenwheel> yes and no. you can only ever see coins generated, but if ring signatures or ringCT are ever compromised, an inflation may take place.
12:44:42 <Mumuks[m]1> I understood that monero total supply can be checked, that you can account all transactions, am I wrong?
12:44:48 <selsta> on paper privacy is worthless if no one uses it
12:45:16 <rottenwheel> reread my messages.
12:45:25 <rottenwheel> it's outlined what the difference is.
12:45:33 <Mumuks[m]1> Oh, so what I knew about Monero total supply was true until RingCT
12:46:12 <rottenwheel> you do not factually audit the entire chain, you can only count the block rewards and trust that ringCT and ring signatures implementations are not exploited down the line. that's why there's a bunch of security audits before monero implements any new cool technology. :)

12:55:21 <charolastra> i wonder how many of those 70k$ going to "core member" ends up with Edward
12:58:15 <rottenwheel> lol.
12:58:18 <rottenwheel> shots fired.
