hello

Sorry, I'm new to IRC. Please ignore my previous message.

Looks like minexmr's hashrate has ticked up a bit over the past 24 hours

and by 24 hours, i mean past few days

whoa high ranking board members?

iykyk

my grandson taught me that acronym

or rather... that abbreviation. back to my board member bridge club event.

I am on 2 boards

neither have anything to do with monello

<luigi1112> "whoa high ranking board members?" <- The Management.

they worry me

BTW, I think something is terribly wrong with my web browser. Damn skript-kiddie browser devs...

<cryptogrampy[m]> "Looks like minexmr's hashrate..." <- If they all start mining now what they've been paper trading all the time, they might be able to cover their naked shorts in 2 decades.

<ian.niculescu> you may smoke crack, but you can't crack monero

kraken is doing good on the monerorun so far

<bridgerton[m]> "<ian.niculescu> twitter..." <- CCS pays better for improving the privacy.

I don't remember who said it, but the quote went like: "After some point USD becomes so worthless, that they can't bribe anybody with it anymore."

<~/.bitmonero/lmdb/data.dir> Hello the recording from Sarang noether is corrupted from 6:05 on monerodl.com/monerotopia_/14-Sarang-Noether/14-aaron-feickert.mp4

also the mp4 in the torrent version is corrupted

is there a working version of it?

Happy monerun day ladies and gents

I'm going to host a Twitter Space from the @monero account around noon CT (~3 hrs from now). Can anyone else join?

hardfork date set

run on exchanges

exciting times

<ian.niculescu> i'll join

huh Monero lives!

another day

anyone remember that story on Reddit a few years ago, when a user challenged Reddit to track their BTC payments? It was done in a few hours, with alarming accuracy. Anyone know the thread, as I can't find it.

I only remember something similar about Zcash, maybe half a year or 1 year ago

seems like a goodway to disprove people that say btc is private, have them provide a btc wallet address and a bot tracks all the payments

midipoet: Thinking of?:

Rucknium[m]: yes, that's the one.

<midipoet> "anyone remember that story on..." <- Didn't they find out at which coffee shop and also had a pretty decent guess at which menu item they had?

"This Year in Monero" blog post is live now, thanks to reeemuru: getmonero.org/2022/04/18/this-year-in-monero.html

Live in 1 hour: twitter.com/monero/status/1516083582061666306

sgp_: I would join but twitter blocked my new twitter account ten minutes after I made it and I refuse to give them my phone number

using twitter for a privacy-focused cryptocurrency seems contradictory

Twitter is outreach to normies.

undoubtedly

preaching the choir will only get you so far

<cryptogrampy[m]> "Twitter is outreach to normies." <- Conversion is inevitable. Resistance is futile. Privacy is the new cool 😎

plowsof[m]: slap some more monero propaganda up in public?

<plowsof[m]> "preaching the choir will only..." <- back in the great war, we called this a circle jerk

im sure you did pops

<cryptogrampy[m]> "Twitter is outreach to normies." <- you mean retards

r4v3r23[m]: Ah there are people who want to know more, or who have never heard of Monero. Twitter is my normie support desk. I'm always happy to help...

cryptogrampy[m]: yeah i get it, but people following already have an interest in privacy

not exactly normies

this guy is very angry he can't buy an xmr miner

Maybe Elon will explain them...

Re: Twitter

we just need the tesla model s to mine xmr

orly_owl: It wouldn't be such a bad idea, if you want to leave the car charging for the whole night anyway.

assuming you have a solar set up i suppose

buy one of the originals with the free tesla charging

??? profit

literally free EV chargers all around the city in most of the US

oh no

musk wouldnt want people to make money

thats his thing

In the end, every car has a 12V supply. Convert it to 230V, place a laptop in the car; done.

whats the laptop doing?

mining im guessing

there are 12v chargers for laptops, converting from 12v to 230v and back to 20v would be inefficient

"loses"

this is crazy

someone gaimed 182m

lmao what

voting rights

orly_owl: In such case, you're right.

i vote all the money goes it me

*to me

is this... decentralization?

^

the money was centralized pretty quickly looooooool

<Sboosta> hi is moneroprivate.io legit?

just plug the laptop into the cigar... i mean "charging port"

I see that moneroprivate dot io thing for the first time. And the statements here look for the most part pretty strange: moneroprivate.io/general-escrow-instructions

happy 8th birthday to Monero! I'm so happy Monero has been provdiing financial privacy for so many people and hope to see more ways to improve our financial privacy!

Poloniex: "XMR is currently under maintenance or experiencing wallet issues. Deposits and withdrawals will remain disabled as we work to find, test, and audit a solution. Thank you for your patience in the meantime."

What kind of issues? Maybe I can help? May I first see how many coins you were actually storing?

Hot wallet vs cold wallet

If more than usual are withdrawing then the hot wallet will be depelted

But yes, only monero is fractional reserve /s

<nioc> "If more than usual are withdrawi..." <- But still the way they say it sounds like it's the coin's fault itself. ""XMR is currently under maintenance or experiencing wallet issues." OR we are poor at risk assessment and like to go ALL IN.

the use the same phrasing for all coins, not very specific and ofc putting the responsibility on someone other than themselves

<mj-xmr[m]> "But still the way they say it..." <- tbf loads of continuous withdrawals could leave the entire wallet in unconfirmed-change-limbo for a while

* leave the exchanges entire, * entire hot wallet in

yes, but Kraken never has a problem with it

unlike other exchanges

so it's possible to make it work smoothly

kraken might have less volume that other exchanges

not saying there isnt any fuckery, just a possible explaination for downtime
