Encrypted not. 10:38:06 Should I contact the counterparty institution and ask them to change it 10:38:16 No 10:38:26 I'm talking about reporting bots on github, if you've made valid reports in the past your report limit should be higher 10:38:50 should the Ledger HW screen not show the integrated address instead of the base address? 10:39:22 seems like a pretty big flaw; you could trick someone into sending to a different integrated address identifier 10:39:23 Adreik, it should probably show the address that you told it to send to rather than the base address, yes. 10:39:26 it boggles the mind how many processes are static, I thought computers were made to automate things 10:39:38 clavi, automate it then. 10:39:50 I don't work at github 10:40:01 apply for a job there 10:41:21 Can anyone confirm that this is the usual behaviour of ledger hardware wallets; to display the base address only when you send to an integrated address? If not I guess I will be the test subject... 10:59:35 Yeah I think that is a known "feature" 11:01:26 any timeline on when it gets patched? 11:02:39 no idea. No way to use a subaddress instead? 11:03:57 I guess I could request that the counterparty update their system, but there isn't an alternative deposit method, no 11:45:24 so either 1. send tiny amount and verify it is correct, or 2. use your own intermediary wallet to send to first ? 11:47:20 Will you HODL XMR or dump it for Tari when it comes out? Will others? 11:48:18 certainly wont dump it for ryo 11:52:44 I don't know why they even bother with that... Tari is never going to launch a mainnet. 11:53:09 * Mochi101 smiles at fp 11:54:14 how do you get tari if it's mergemined? do you just get tari when you mine xmr now? 11:54:34 or as well as* 11:54:37 same way doge works 11:54:53 i dont know how doge works either :'( 11:55:13 merge mine magic 11:55:20 MMM tech 11:56:19 I keep finding obvious mistakes in Mastering Monero (pdf) that are fixed in the source, is the pdf outdated? 12:42:26 Mochi101 because such things are detected & you get banned by the bot.. 12:45:05 Bill48105, I was explaining to someone why there was a captcha. 12:48:56 ahh yeah figure most everything is covered as people dont take long to try thing 12:49:40 How would you cover an attack like that though? 12:50:04 tracking, reactions & alerts 12:50:45 Not sure, not without some complicated guesswork. 12:51:04 Unless you track someone's activity level. 12:51:29 well for one there's a reason faucet isn't allowed in pm 12:51:43 so they'd have to do it in a channel the bot has joined 12:51:43 So at least 'over a certain threshold of messages' in the channel. 12:52:00 the bot is only in channels i add it to 12:52:12 Bill48105, Like the spam bots that come here with registered nicks. 12:52:20 They could all do the faucet thing. 12:52:25 yes & i c ould stop them too if the bot had op ;) 12:52:44 they can do faucet but they'd have to answer the question 12:53:05 The logic in that is easy enough. 12:53:15 meh you're missing the point 12:53:28 you tell me you're not gonna notice if they tried here? 12:53:37 I would notice. 12:54:00 But your bot wouldn't automatically notice, would it? 12:54:24 [15:55:22] ALERT!

I know Loki is a Monero for and tewinget worked on it. I know it has something called service nodes, which are... maybe similar to masternodes, not quite sure.

Haven't seen him for months... 17:03:01 meow 17:03:06 abcdefg_1rssi: The early stuff is easy, because there are checkpoints for block verification. 17:03:08 apparently he is 17:03:10 * moneromooo kidding 17:03:17 abcdefg_1rssi: The end requires your node to verify blocks the hard way. 17:03:23 ahhh 17:03:34 That's my understanding, anyway. 17:03:47 its saying like 1.7 days left to complete the last 7% lol 17:03:52 moneromooo: Did I get that explanation right? 17:04:30 abcdefg_1rssi: It seems to involve a lot of non-sequential writing to your storage device. 17:04:30 I think the checkpoints really do speed up the sync 17:04:30 Yes. 17:04:44 moneromooo: Cool. Thanks for the confirmation. 17:04:49 yeah 17:05:04 verification requires touching old blocks and new ones to conform things 17:05:13 hence the non-sequential reads you're seeing 17:05:14 there's probably also other factors like how busy the block chain has been recently, and later tx's referring more to earlier blocks? 17:05:47 marmulak: yes but that largely evens out, it's more like "more recent blocks have more txs than older ones" which means more verification time 17:05:49 those random reads and writes are murder 17:06:16 fluffypony could you unlock this if you have a sec? https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/mq6gb2/the_first_public_haveno_meeting_will_be_wednesday/? 17:06:20 much worse than reckless endangerment 17:06:24 yeah more tx's as Monero gets more popular and people are rushing to buy crypto 17:06:39 ErCiccione: approved 17:06:52 I see it's in the "have no dev" channel 17:06:56 if you need a dev you should just ask 17:06:57 :-P 17:06:59 thanks 17:07:31 Use the just released 0.17.2.0 which has new checkpoints for faster syncing 17:07:31 😛 It's a meme already 17:12:29 lol 17:17:51 xmr price has gone up a lot 17:19:49 not today 17:24:21 the feeling when you know what to invest in but don't have the money 17:25:01 gil: just do 100x leverage, 0 risk involed i promise 17:25:11 You can always put some money in.

You never know. 19:09:31 https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/d1i9jm/tether_is_a_scam/ 19:09:35 You sound like a troll to me. 19:09:57 It's really unclear where we're gonna go. It's not been looking good in the lsat 20 years but at some point the pendulum's gotta swing back. 19:10:09 I'm not. 19:10:39 I think the reason why Monero can exist is the same as why strong crypto exists - genie is out of the bottle already 19:10:50 They do allow a transparent blockchain (BTC) to exist. It is because they can trace what went where, and potentially identify Bitcoin addresses with great ease. 19:11:25 I mean, the questions about this typically assume we're gonna get china as a world master soon (or china like authoritarianism), which is possible, but it certainly at one end of the spectrum. 19:11:38 Is Kraken the only reason Monero has value? 19:11:50 It's like people can't conceive anything else. 19:11:57 What happens when Kraken delists Monero? 19:11:58 are there any countries that have banned monero and not bitcoin? 19:12:14 why would kraken delist monero? 19:12:34 Which is kinda sad for them I guess, because the prison their thoughts live in is pretty small. 19:12:38 preemptive obedience 19:12:42 CoinMarketCap lists the Monero price. I assume CMC is an exchange, too. 19:12:48 I believe Australia banned exchanges from listing Monero. 19:12:50 bitcointums: its not a certainty 19:12:50 Kraken ? What's this got to do with it ? 19:12:58 Oh wait, that's a bot isnt it. 19:13:01 nvm 19:13:03 so, they didn't ban monero 19:13:37 What will Monero do if governments decide that any Bitcoin that interacts with Monero atomic swaps gets the KYC'd user arrested? 19:13:39 are exchanges the only reason cryptocurrency has value? how ridiculous does that sound 19:14:26 Do you hodel Monero rupee? 19:14:29 Non-KYC exchanges will always save the day (localmonero, atomic swaps when they are launched to the mainnet, Cake Wallet's, etc.) 19:14:39 > <@bitcointums:matrix.org> I believe Australia banned exchanges from listing Monero. 19:14:39 * Non-KYC exchanges will always save the day (localmonero, atomic swaps when they are launched to the mainnet, Cake Wallet's, if it is non-KYC, etc.) 19:14:42 You don't get it, if you're not a bot. If noone pushes in the direction of freedom, we *will* end up less free faster. This is good for noone, even those who won't do anything. 19:14:47 nothing. what would you expect monero to do? it doesn't care what governments think 19:14:51 What? 19:15:11 I'm not a bot moneromooo. 19:15:12 Nothing. It has no center. 19:15:16 I mean, I get it, it's easy to do nohting, and I'm not a suicidal hero either, but it's for *yourself* you push, as well as for others. 19:15:42 And people just missing that are just helping dig their own prison pit. 19:16:31 Kinda makes me sad at times to live in the middle of such despot lovers but hey. Got no choice in the matter. 19:16:46 bitcointums[m]: I hold rupee[m] do you? 19:17:01 Anyway, best go back to coding before I rant more :) 19:17:03 bitcointums[m]: do you hold monero? 19:17:18 bitcointums[m]: where do you live 19:17:19 I hold Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple and BNB. 19:17:25 .tip bitcointums 0.00001 19:17:25 rupee[m]: User 'bitcointums' not found on 'freenode'.

Must... not...get... back... on.. IRC... 19:19:31 ok 19:19:41 btw there is #monero-markets where price and trading is discussed 19:19:48 not so much this channel 19:20:05 I'll go discuss the shitcoin there nioc, thanks. 19:20:10 np 19:25:03 Trill. 19:25:16 > <@bitcointums:matrix.org> Ripple will win the lawsuit and be relisted probably causing it to 5x, rupee. 19:25:16 * Troll. 19:25:28 Also, the one in a lawsuit was Tether, no? 19:26:08 different lawsuit. tether one/settled theirs 19:26:17 ripple is facing a damning lawsuit 19:26:43 "the shitcoin", did the motherfucker just call Monero a shitcoin? 19:27:00 i think they mean ripple 19:27:24 Oh boy. Is there any other crypto lawsuit going on? 19:27:47 No, Monero. It kinda is if its only adoption is speculation and darknet market drug purchases. Why would a government allow their citizens to transact with Monero IRL? I certainly wouldn't want to risk jail time. 19:28:18 Told you. 19:29:27 I'm not trolling. 19:29:46 Monero is supposed to give privacy to the user, and nobody has been jailed for using Monero yet AFAIK. 19:30:23 I think xmr is the best anonymous coin, however it doesn't mean the darknet will choose it as their first choice. 19:30:55 Isn't Tor broken because the five eye governments can do traffic correlation? 19:30:59 That does not mean we should go around using such stupidity as Dash, Zcash or Firo. 19:31:54 HTTPS will help. 19:31:56 bitcointums: there are already mitigations in place for that 19:32:21 What mitigations? 19:32:36 Google.com 19:32:41 And attempt to use the Tor Browser only in order to not stand out as a dude using Brave with Tor (Brave is not safe either). 19:33:08 https://google.com 19:33:23 im interested in said mitigations too. not googling tho 19:33:47 You could duck it (duckduckgo.com) 19:34:05 That is what I always do. 19:34:05 id rather be conveniently told 19:34:34 I don't see how there can be mitigations for watching bytes go into the entry node and the same or similar number of bytes going out into the exit node. It's well within reason to assume the major governments have colluded to monitor Tor traffic. 19:35:07 tor is not safe anymore? 19:35:15 oh 19:35:16 i see 19:35:28 usernetinternet[: Not true. They will under Taproot; they don't currently. 19:35:38 Using onion domains such as https://3g2upl4pq6kufc4m.onion (DuckDuckGo) helps. 19:35:45 For atomic swaps looking like normal TXs under Bitcoin. 19:36:06 > HTTPS 19:37:04 kayabaNerve: thanks for correction, i have not been following bitcoin for ages 19:37:24 usernetinternet: What do you hodl? 19:37:25 > <@bitcointums:matrix.org> I don't see how there can be mitigations for watching bytes go into the entry node and the same or similar number of bytes going out into the exit node. It's well within reason to assume the major governments have colluded to monitor Tor traffic. 19:37:25 * Rogue exit node: Let's see what is this guy doing. 19:37:25 HTTPS: _go brrrrrr_ 19:39:39 99.9999% monero and some btc cash dust i use to write messages into the blockchain 19:39:52 So you just buy and sell it for fiat? 19:39:54 bch? o_0 19:40:34 jj1013.: Yeah, except for NFT's on ETH since I think artwork may have more value over the long term imo. 19:40:35 > write messages into the blockchain 19:40:37 I have my monero seedprhase written in an encrypted form in a bitcoin cash trasaction 19:40:54 send me the link :p 19:40:58 I just need to look at the transaction and then i decrypt it and i have my seedphrase 19:41:16 Solves the issue of storing the seedphrase lol 19:41:33 I just need to have a transaction bookmarked on a block explorer 19:41:42 usernetinternet: What if you die? 19:41:59 ... couldn't you just write the 15-word seed on a paper? 19:42:17 Then my lost monero would increase the value of everyone elses 19:42:38 jj1013.: people i live with are knowledgeable about seedphrases and i dont trust them 19:42:54 bitcointums[m]: just live stream to the nsa, it's what I do 19:43:14 usernetinternet: Do you think Monero will make you rich? 19:43:27 Oh... just your luck, I guess. 19:43:43 So that is why you are interested in P&D coins. Normie. 19:44:13 But will it make you rich? It doesn't have to be a pump and dump. 19:44:53 If you write your seedphrase on a blockchain it solves the issue with having to store your seedphrase 19:45:04 As long as you can encrypt it 19:45:21 I just don't want to be stuck holding a bag when quantum breaks everything in 10 years. 19:46:20 as far as i know there are already quantum proof crypto schemes 19:46:40 Then ditch all your coins for a quantum resistant coin lol 19:47:00 Why do you want to hold Monero when you know it will eventually break? 19:47:28 we know it's not breaking now 19:48:00 bitcointums: you realize this applies to every other coin too? 19:48:00 so now is a good time to hold it 19:48:22 when the breaking comes closer, maybe then it's not anymore 19:48:22 It's effectively a pump and dump if it breaks with quantum in the next 10 years, is it not? 19:48:23 monero is also a highly political thing, and it's not like human beings to 'wait their politics out until a better technology arrives' 19:48:24 Yes, that's why I don't get it. 19:48:35 Will Nano make me rich? 19:49:04 Lost some of it between a Banano and Nano, so had to dump. 19:49:04 * Lost some of it between Banano and Nano, so had to dump. 19:49:17 bitcointums: there is quantum resistant cryptography, it can be updated 19:49:29 well it might be difficult to update actually 19:49:43 Wouldn't people need to migrate their coins to quantum proof addresses? 19:49:51 there's nothing to say that the current key format will work with that of the chosen scheme 19:50:04 and not even that it's possible to convert 19:50:49 besides, if everything in the 'old' chain can be broken, claimed ownership of those coins becomes worthless so you'd have to start over anyway 19:51:35 So Monero probably isn't the future of money, got it. 19:51:59 probably not the very far future 19:52:10 but the near and medium-term future, possibly 19:52:16 If you are afraid of quantum computers ditch your bank accounts too 19:52:30 and AES will at least keep working when quantum comes 'round, so there's that 19:52:50 Bank accounts are just text files with a trusted custodian managing them, I'm not too worried about that breaking. 19:54:01 There are many ways quantum computing affects banking, its much more than just text files 19:54:44 It's still probably better than Monero with experimental cryptography, right? 19:55:25 pixelized: How long is the medium term future? 19:55:33 Nope, in ur hypothetical situation, they are both fucked 19:56:06 10-20 years 19:56:12 what name servers do you guys use 19:56:28 pixelized: Do you hodl Monero? 19:56:53 i have some 19:57:02 and i'm sticking to it for now 19:57:15 bitcointums: what do you hodl? 19:57:17 but i'm not in a very financially stable position so getting out is not something i'd absolutely never do 19:57:53 usernetinternet: Bitcoin, Ripple, Ethereum and BNB. 20:03:03 Didn't Fluffypony make yat which is a shitcoin? 20:05:00 Yat isnt a coin 20:05:42 fluffy *made* yat? 20:10:37 bitcointums[m]: do you have anything positive to say about monero? 20:11:26 Yes. It's currently the only privacy coin that works well. 20:12:20 From what people have said here, it doesn't seem like it's worth hodling. 20:13:22 bitcointums: why not? 20:14:31 The threat of quantum computing, its price relative to Bitcoin, lack of a proper path to adoption (I don't see it moving outside of darknet markets), and the threat of onramps being more limited. 20:14:34 It is actually picking up some attention on YouTube it seems. I think plenty of people will start coming in not caring about the project and just trying to turn a profit (which is totally fine, that's how currencies already work!) I have been trying to accumulate a little bit here and there, but I am really looking for ways to spend it 20:15:06 The arguments you used to say Monero isn't worth hodling, can equally be used to say anything else isn't worth hodling. Your quantum apocalypse scenario would break everything about the modern world, not just Monero. 20:15:06 So sure, in a quantom apocalypse Monero is doomed... But in that scenario the only thing I want to be hodling is water and ammo 20:15:37 I am still thinking about how to get local businesses to start accepting it. I want to start tipping people in XMR on paper wallets 20:15:39 Until then, Monero does well 20:15:55 bitcointums: threat of quantum computing applies to all cryptos, bitcoins price is entirely speculation by moonboys and boomers, and its transaction count is growing organically 20:16:36 WHM the biggest darknet market was offline for a day or so and tx counnt on monero only fell by a bit proving that its not only used for drugs 20:17:43 usernetinternet: Do you not believe that Bitcoin is an adequate store of value to hedge against inflation? 20:19:20 Because a cryptocurrency is backed by nothing its value is entirely derived from its function as a medium of exchange, bitcoin has no function due to its slow 7tps 20:19:33 The only argument for bitcoin is line go up 20:20:17 Quantum resistance is the new Y2K scare 20:20:31 quantum computing affects everything 20:20:42 I have never used a DNM 20:21:06 why would I use btc and have veryone know my business 20:21:13 *everyone 20:21:17 Honestly bitcoin will probably remain number 1 but eventually it will be eclipsed by something better (probably ethereum) 20:21:17 Once bitcoin loses its mythical status of #1 it will have to provide value from its function (exchange) 20:21:17 Obviously it cant so it will be a the biggedt rugpull of all time 20:21:49 * Honestly bitcoin will probably remain number 1 but eventually it will be eclipsed by something better (probably ethereum) 20:21:49 Once bitcoin loses its mythical status of #1 it will have to provide value from its function (exchange) 20:21:49 Obviously it cant so it will be a the biggest rugpull of all time 20:24:14 You might be right but I don't think Bitcoin is losing its #1 status for a very long time. 20:24:30 At least not until tomorrow. 20:27:57 yeah it doesn't help that to millions of people 'cryptocurrency' and 'bitcoin' are the exact same thing 20:28:46 .balance 20:28:47 TheFireSwamp: • Your balance is: 0.00029156 XMR (≈0.1 USD) 20:28:47 I just found out there's a Monero mining worm going around, targeting Windows and Linux machines. 20:28:57 I think i got it 20:29:00 much more profitable than a BTC mining worm, probably 20:29:39 pixelized: I have faith that the avg person will have greater knowledge eventually 20:30:38 that's probably true, but the lack of it currently is part of bitcoin's momentum 20:30:39 also 20:30:45 apotheon, you're quite likeable 20:30:57 * usernetinternet[ uploaded an image: (51KiB) < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/NeeVhvFSGEsHpzpCoOsgjVRr/dpla8iyklap61.jpg > 20:31:02 Am I? 20:31:08 This is how i like to imagine it will go 20:31:20 pixelized[m]: Thanks, I think.

I just heard a report on it in the middle of some other reports on privacy and security news. 20:42:21 I guess you'd have to look up the info via a search engine (I like DuckDuckGo, but your mileage may vary). I don't even run Linux or Windows.

Specific security features that are necessary for specific purposes have their place for those purposes, though, and when what I need for a particular use case is not in my favorite general-purpose OS I'll use the other thing, as 23:35:18 necessary. 23:35:46 I don't really enjoy the "my security is bigger than yours" game. I make pragmatic choices based on the circumstances. 23:37:03 Then you should verify the OS installation image with checksum/GPG. 23:37:05 That having been said, OpenBSD offers a lot of security-oriented design choices and functionality that aren't generally recognized. 23:37:12 There's more to it than that. 23:37:49 Checksums ensure you got the right thing. They don't make up for code reviews, reduced attack surfaces, simpler designs where the complexity isn't needed, and so on. 23:38:08 . . . but yeah, making sure you got the right thing is important, too. 23:38:17 https://madaidans-insecurities.github.io/openbsd.html 23:38:30 Interestingly, more and more systems are adopting OpenBSD's signify tool for verifying your download isn't compromised. 23:38:36 Oh, that again. 23:38:50 I've seen that "my checklist is bigger than your checklist" source before. 23:39:05 Fisking it is tedious, though, so I'll just leave it at that for now. 23:44:35 what's the approx chain size again right now? 23:47:56 sad truth is marketing matters to the masses 23:48:10 nah 23:48:18 the masses respond better to fomo 23:48:22 you gotta show them what they're missing 23:48:28 then they arrive in droves 23:49:09 FOMO is just a marketing strategy. 23:49:34 apotheon: do you have a source/link for the xmr worm? 23:52:04 i already sent what it probably was 23:52:14 so, who maintains the gui wallet? 23:52:18 cuz it's a bit, big on hidpi 23:52:25 i had never used the gui before 23:54:18 lord_fomo[m]: check out the github i guess 23:54:25 yah 23:54:31 was just curious if author was here 23:54:37 i know there's qt flags for this stuff 23:54:49 so can probably try that before i start flingin issues 23:54:50 https://github.com/monero-project/monero-gui 23:55:12 shouldnt the gui appear small by default on hidpi? 23:55:29 the "simple wallet" in the gui, that copies the ledger or nah? 23:55:43 well i mean any gui 23:56:03 i always had problems with stuff appearing too small and had to scale it up 23:56:04 the setup wizard was making it out like it wasn't? 23:56:09 maybe i misread that 23:56:18 huh 23:56:31 you on lowdpi aka HD? 23:56:43 The GUI wallet is too bloated for me.
