Hello. Does anyone know what the default server that monero-gui connects to is? node.moneroworld? Some list of trusted nodes?

in simple mode that is

Meeting here in roughly an hour for anyone who's interested

Thanks for the reminder carrington, the agenda looks very good.

1. Introduction

Hello.

Hey everyone

hi

3. Community highlights

Hi

Hello

Meetings for Monerokon 2022 have started up in #monero-events:monero.social

Looks like there might be a European conference of some kind

Possibly in June

Possibly in Portugal

Also there was interesting news about BTC-ETH atomic swaps

I think Farcaster BTC-XMR swpas is imminent as well.

If no one wants to bring any other stuff to attention we can take a look at the CCS proposals

4. CCS updates

a. Monero Community Anthem

There was a discussion about this on Reddit

They also appeared on Monerotopia to discuss the proposal

Some people have called it cringe etc. in the comments but I don't see anyone actually arguing against it moving forward

hire the bitconnect dance team

I guess they are still open to feedback of any kind

b. Lovera Creating Educational Content in Spanish

There seems to be some positive comments from people in the Spanish XMR community

The YT channel seems to get a fairly large number of views

c. "Getting to grips with Monero" Mini series

This was originally started as a bounty

From what I've seen, "Getting to grips with Monero" deserves strong support.

The P2pool Windows video was pretty good

Lastly there is this proposal which I don't understand at all

But anyways please leave comments somewhere if you have opinions about any of those proposals

5. Workgroup reports

This is an open floor for anyone workgroup to give an update on what's going on in the world of Monero

carrington[m]: It's written like they want us to apply for their grant, do good to ignore for now

Yeah I think they misunderstood what the CCS is for, maybe they will reach out

i don't really understand what they are asking for

Most important report for Monero Space: let me know if you want a Monero.space email for outreach activities. And let me know if you're a FOIA expert. Thanks :)

Does anyone know what happened to the guy who wanted to make a ccs for physical monero hardware wallet cards?

He was here a couple weeks ago

Any questions for Monero Hardware workgroup?

Ux got in touch with monerodocs.org and we've made some pr's and added a darkmode to the site

😁

msvb-nop: I have a question: What is the Monero Hardware group?

It is a team of hardware engineers who work on Monero projects.

We may have tables at April events, at least the managers are considering our proposals.

Do you design CPUs and things like that?

MrSenshi was the person working on the java-card hardware wallet fyi

crypto_grampy[m]: Trying to find it in the logs

It looks like BAnB will reject our application but TSBTC will accept us. Of course we'll be at Monetopia.

Ah nice haha

I don't know of anyone designing a CPU Rucknium[m], closest ist a Ed25519 ASIC that a group in Denmark may make.

msvb-nop: Why did they reject

They want only commercial groups with sales, and we don't have that kind of mandate. So they will probably reject giving us a table.

msvb-nop: I guess you could try to get in touch with MrSenshi . See if you could collaborate

Yeah he apparently had found a vendor to make 5$ cards using some existing hardware wallet card api

Other notes from ux- monero guides is looking for feedback on their node setup guide script they're going to use to make a tutorial, and I'm looking to run through the entire GUI backlog and add labels in the near future with bevanoff @bevanoff:matrix.org

Anyone is welcome to help with that 😁

6. Open ideas time

would it be possible to get XMR.radio listed in "Resources" /r/monero sidebar

I can't even see "Resources" on the subreddit sidebar

I see Rules, Wallets, Quick Links etc. but no resources

under Quick Links

It would be pretty cool if XMR.radio was linked from Monero Observer

You could read the XMR news with the XMR tunes

I think community podcast listens or anime night streams would be fun. With a chat as well

Currently with the Bounties they’re proposed by people who aren’t building them, and then donations come in based on demand, and builders can opt to take on the task... (full message at libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/r0/do…56e7391a2847c91ef024898a3a5561621c4)

Elizabetherium just posted the xmr/eth bounty a couple days ago and it's up to 9xmr fyi. There was no set goal though, but she was both the proposer and the taker for the bounty

***will be the taker

Yep, noticed that

Xmr.radio mixcloud link seems to be down btw

john_r365: plowsof has the Wishlist as a Service software.

I do like the idea of this, but I would probably prefer they post in the bounty 'hey I'd be willing to do this bounty if it hits x xmr'

It's not exactly what you described, but it's pretty close

Yeah plowsof's tool is perfect for this

It is used by xmr.radio in fact

crypto_grampy[m]: I suppose that’d achieve similar functionality without modification of code

Plowsof has also created a site similar to bitcoindevlist

carrington: yeah, i need find a way to set up OBS to reconnect automatically. Stream cuts off after 8 hours and I need to manually reconnect.

I tune in every now and then. The subreddit rules seem to say you can promote/advertise a service every two weeks.

Anyways I'll call the meeting there for logs purposes

Thanks for running it carrington

Confirm next meeting date/time

If anyone else would like to run another similar meeting next time around please feel free. I think I will not be available two weeks from now.

ZEC want to move away from PoW to PoS:

"Benefits include the reduction in downward pressure on the price of ZEC"

Does this mean the supply cap would be lifted?

a random thought about PoS for ZEC. If the FEDs are confiscating zec from DNM markets or other illegal activities they will allways get more and more controll over the network. the more they seize, the more controll they get
