cryptoknowmics.com/news/monero-is-f…on-issue-randomx-serving-no-purpose and lots of similar articles on crypto news sites

it all started ever since reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/f1llms…s_have_consistently_had_60_combined was posted

it looks like a coordinated campaign

and even bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5224819.0 from newbie account

sech1: you saw the nazi-smearing post on reddit too the other day?

probably not

I'm really busy with adding AMD Navi support

With a smaller mining pool, you get smaller payouts because smaller pools find less block rewards due to smaller hash rate

hmm

Inge- is that why many FUK shills are reddit-wide banned now?

Pick1eMorty AbleTest PrizeEconomy ChilieWillie -TANJIRO- - all banned, maybe there are some more

i don't think they get banned for what they post, as annoying as they are i don't think it breaks any rules. probably just for creating sockpuppet accounts and engaging in vote manipulation

I really don't get that ban thing. People act like they have a right to spew anywhere they like. It's not like you're banned from everywhere, they can still pew in *their* place.

If it was me, I'd deal large helpings of ban.

Free speech does not mean obligation to listen.

If you like freedom, you'll deal with the freedom of others to drop you from their home.

nothing has changed about the quality of crypto journalism

indeed

supportxmr and minexmr really need to increase their fees, though

sech1: it was pretty bad. and combined with what you are talking about here, it seems like there is an ongoing campaign against xmr.

that's nothing new

probably not

tevador: so more people move over to other pools?

I think I made a patch years ago to have the pool fee start going up if the pool hash rate goes over 40% or so.

thats... an interesting idea.

kind of nice - pool operator can help the ecosystem, without taking too much of an economic hit

sounds cool we should encourage it

Found it: moneromooo/cryptonote-universal-pool 5e31901

Not porting it to anything though. Feel free to use.

the fee needs to increase a lot earlier than at 40%

wonder what the unintended consequences would be 🤷‍♂️

Idea: Scale the pool fee with the percent of the network, so a smaller pool basically always is slightly more profitable than a larger pool

the obvious issue is people making a fixed-fee pool, but if it was adhered to by most operators, that would be neat to watch

i dont think anything that operates on good faith will stand the test of time. of course there are outliers.
