Someone made a new post and linked to SEVERAL deleted posts claiming their exchanges failed leading up to MajesticBank deleting the posts and their account. While I know they've claimed the exchange is operating without issue, and the kycnot.me admin confirmed it currently is, they have yet to provide an explanation for the mass about of public complaints and why they nuked their account, not to mention their downtime.

To keep things simple, I'd like to repeat the request for MajesticBank to explain why they nuked their community and account, which is verifiable and unexplained. While it may be online now, there's been some incident which paints a very bad picture.

*mass amount

*While the exchange may

The best case picture is they were temporarily offline/victims to coordinated FUD, don't have 24/7 support, and decided to stop engaging with Dread. The first is understandable, the second is shady but what isn't, and the third is their choice. Thay statement hasn't been made however. None has.

koe's MoneroKon presentation on "Seraphis Balance Recovery" is up youtube.com/watch?v=fEJpE7LumG8

Was its vik (Cake) shout at the Monero meet up 😏

kayabanerve[m]: I suggest that you seek professional help man

since this is over the line already from your side

pluja: is an impersonator? I doubt that

when public statement addressing questions from above (needmoneys also). Will this be like signing hashes ? Do people have to independently test the service?

As an outsider I respectfully disagree with an assessment that kayabanerve somehow lost it to an extent that they should seek "professional help". Healthy scepticism, maybe served a bit pointedly, more like it.

But here my unsolicited and maybe unwelcome advice: If I was a PR advisor for MajesticBank I would take them for a good talk and try to advert this PR trainwreck.

"If you are in hole, stop digging."

this is free advertising, trade volume is going up not down

Well then, good for you. Still a very fragile situation, if you ask me.

and why would I address the FUD? I am bound to answers to my customers, if I answer to FUD everyday there won't be time to focus on important things

Yes, your customers might like to have all that Dread forum confusion cleared up with a calm and informative statement from you, no?

Beyond all FUD

I prefer defending myself with outstanding service and results, my work and contributions to this community

give it time, quality and privacy always win

I solely stated accused, have edited my post with new info. While I am now jaded due to MajesticBank's personal attacks, I am still waiting for their explanation if they care to offer one. If they don't care to, I won't personally trust them as they won't acknowledge a mess, but that's their choice. This should naturally die out. I only came back because SEVERAL examples were newly posted.

MajesticBank: Perfectly fair. It sounds like you didn't have that for a bit, but if you want to continue a previously sterling track record, I'd love to see it.

Friendly reminder I've consistently said I'd love for you to come back and I was happy to see you when you sent your first message. I legitimately didn't want to cause issues. I solely wanted people to temporarily be safer than sorry. I'd hope you understand we all want to be safe. It's why you do your best to offer a safe service ;)

But again. If this is just coordinated FUD, I'm sorry for perpetuating it as I did my best for the community. I hope your service stands properly and we can move on.

I know you've done a lot for the community and I appreciate that. I said it didn't make sense and I never thought you were malicious. I thought you were scared, if anything, though I did acknowledge how it looked. If it looks differently as we move into a future where you continue, great :)

Great you have changed your opinion towards us, good luck with serai :-)

<MajesticBank> "and why would I address the FUD?..." <- You are not being asked to address FUD, you are asked to address things that actually happened and that impact your customers (ie the deletion of your community forum and your account) - which is reason for concern from your customers. On top of that, your continued reluctance to any questions about it makes you look even more suspicious - again, *to your customers*

"In regards to the develop of Ethereum-Monero"

Soo... still not going to try to get readers go fund it

Kilo swap is offline? (I wanted to test exchanges)

Kiloswap exit scammed?!?!?!

.. /s

Lol

Weird how the internet jumps to worse case scenario

<plowsof> "Kilo swap is offline? (I..." <- Just tested and it seems like it is working right now for me. It also appears as online on dark.fail/kilos

Thanks pluja , indeed online now (i was very ng a 404 earlier) is the reason it has an 8.9 instead of 9.0 rating because it doesnt have a clesrnet version

very ng->getting

Hi there i cant sync my demon any more. everything was fine couple days ago and since yesterday no sync is possible anymore. can anybody help me why?

Wallet? Os?

gui wallet

Did you update to ≥ v0.18.0.0?? Sounds like you need to do this

it is v0.18.1.0

Can take it to #monero-support:monero.social for troubleshooting

i actually could provide the monrod.exe logs if it helps?

oh look, another matrix room that is not bridged to IRC

(once monero is bridged, we can use the "nioc said bridge it" coupon code for monero support too. We also have community dev not bridged (the first step is creating an irc channel with "monero" in its name, (protected)

Diego said he'd do it for nioc

I think for community-dev and monero

The request to diego was for the long standing #monero issue

After that feel free to use the coupon code :)

We are one

so that reddit thread warning majesticbank whatever was all like at 145 upvotes in just couple hours and now, few hours later down to 0, sounds like vote manipulations from both sides LOL

yall be shady ass mofos, just sayin 😹

Let the ddos battles commence !

meanwhile the last /r/place ended up with a very tiny design compared to the original one, coming from a community that do be mining and all that shit, that whole botting compared to any other communities was just garbage, shame on yall XD

everything is bots, just give up

Wow Beldex just donated 13 XMR to fund ETH<>XMR atomic swaps:

gofundme and magic asking for the same amount

oh they are linked

w0w

It's the same campaign. GoFundMe is for fiat processing and campaign completion display.

<spacekitty420[m4> "so that reddit thread warning..." <- I guess we found the vote manipulators

Has anyone synched a node or transacted over starlink?

Wondering how reliable it is

I think maybe shillo (not here rn) has starlink possibly

shillo is ded

starlink satellite crashed on his house and killed him instantly

rip in pieces

> <@ofrnxmr:monero.social> Has anyone synched a node or transacted over starlink?

> Wondering how reliable it is

Have you heard of this thingy: github.com/markqvist/Reticulum

ofrnxmr[m]: starlink is decent for gaming. It'll be more than fine for a blockchain

I'm more interested in how censorable Starlink is

If it can be shutdown from ground, pretty useless for Monero

<cryptogrampy[m]> "> <@ofrnxmr:monero.social> Has..." <- Monero donation address = passes the sniff test

gonbatfire: stsrlink has partnered with tmobile and has put out a press release looking for more service providers to supply rural access to

One person controlling the internet from space 🍿

" If it can be shutdown from ground, pretty useless for Monero" I don't understand. Your ISP can also cut you off just like that. Pretty useless for Monero?

Yes

Mesh networks have to step up

Or a satellite network that's open source, actually censorship resistant & that can't be controlled by a single entity, like what Femtostar is developing

I have high hopes on WiFi Halow, decent range (~1km) at decent data rates (~1Mbit). Can have higher range at lower data rates and vise versa (up to 5km, 15Mbit). The relative bandwidth is small (<1%), a directional yagi antenna could be used. Frequency bands vary, but almost all countries have a compatible band, which can be freely used

Won't be able to carry the entire network obviously, but could distribute the chain and transactions locally so targeted survailance / cutting of individuals won't be possible easily

First hardware is available since beginning of this year, but modules are rare and still super expensive (80$)

Through industry contacts I know that individual chips will enventully sell for about $5 in 100k qty., so $10-$15 modules are realistic

Today I made some changes to kycnot.me, if any of you is interested, particularly to the sorting and scoring: kycnot.me/changelog

Criticism and opinions are welcome :)

Femtostar looks interesting, but it missing one detail as far as I could see on their website. A very crucial detail: When and how will the satellites go up?

I mean, sometimes I deam about building not one, but two megaconstellations in a single night. Nothing happened so far - zero birds in orbit.

Ironically I prefer an inaccurate score than a "rounded" color system. But I understand why you changed it and respect your decision.

I know, but it was very problematic. I feel like this way you still have an oritentation about which ones are "better" and "worse" while not having a numeric score... Although maybe there is a better system than this one...

anyone here have experience with flutter?

need help with something basic

does anyone know if wownero will poompa soon? I bought the t shirts with the very large breasted wownerochan anime girl for all of my grandkids and future grandkids. I don't want to gift them (along with wownero sui's) right before we dump.

if anyone can pass this message along to the wow CEO, it would be appreciated

not asking for insider trading info, I just want a heads up before i make my trade

not financial advice

You're literally asking for financial advice lmao

thanks,

- grampy

Nobody knows what the market will do, idk why people don't understand that

there's a wownerochan too?

yes there are 2 big differences from monerochan

Isn't the difference a bit too big

that's what i was told anyway

mesaoptimizer: not sure what you mean. wownero is a capped supply but is almost an exact copy of monero codebase

cryptogrampy[m]: oh, I was just continuing the joke you were

more importantly: do monero's new improvements and forks also get merged into the wownero codebase?

these questions are jokes right

mesaoptimizer: No, they don't

too bad, I was interested in wownero for a moment

Monero and Wownero are different currencies, they run different nodes, they use different wallets, they have a different hashrate etc

yes, but the algorithm and code improvements are not specific to the monero ecosystem, right?

Compare Venice Beach VA to Venice Italy, that's what its like comparing monero forks to monero

s/VA/CA/

mesaoptimizer: I mean, wownero still have a ring sizer bigger tan monero's

* I mean, wownero still have a ring size bigger tan monero's

a new wow release will update to recent monero improvements

they alreadty had ringsize of 22 :)

"a new wow release will update to recent monero improvements" that's good to hear

I believe they're gonna do the viewtags but everything else doesn't exactly pertain to wow

yes it's not an exact copy

So, this morn I downloaded the monero gui. Created an wallet and sent transaction via changeling? Didn't see anything about syncing till afterwards. Either way it cleared on there side. However,I'm now synced and still nada. Any idea if support exist to hurry process with hash?

where did you even hear of changeling

you were probably scammed, since I searched around and found no mention of changeling in /r/monero and /r/xmrtrader

good night, and good luck

maybe changling or chang(e)ly

EtherPro[m]: which direction did you send?

Direction?

When I set up I chose simple. However, the amount of time it will take to sync locally is unacceptable so I'm using remote node. It's going on 5 hrs.

Is there no support for this app?

monero gui is the official GUI wallet, so it will have first class support

also you just said you are now synced, so the wallet probably isn't the problem here

EtherPro[m]: yes, did you send to your monero wallet or from your monero wallet?

mesaoptimizer: From who?

Ether Pro: You have to decrypt the transactions on your own computer for your eyes only. That takes a lot of computer power. Monero is a privacy coin, so it works different than others. Just wait for full sync

EtherPro[m]: do you have a transaction id from changelly? it should look like this f238b22d6db0e0efab39f93ecca1d024630d432a5bb864d1d91dafbab79f82f4

EtherPro[m]: There is no company behind Monero, the best support you will find it right here from the community

So, you bought some Monero trough Changelly and then sent it to your public address?

Rucknium[m]: Full sync was accomplished via remote node.

selsta: Yes

can you enter it in xmrchain.net and say how many confirmations it has?

gonbatfire[m]: Yea

Ether Pro: What version of Monero GUI are you using? If its's an older version you need to update.

afterwards go to Settings -> Info, post "Version", "Wallet mode", and "Wallet restore height"

plowsof: ^ banhammer

selsta: Customer support at changelly already did that and sent me the results. They said I would need to get help on monero endm

EtherPro[m]: yes, and I'm helping you already but you have to follow the steps I'm asking you

Rucknium[m]: The latest one from site. It's fine I'm deleting. Thought somehow it would be better than kraken 🤦🏿‍♂️ thanx

selsta: Did that twice. To no avail.

The version has a number. If you are at 0.17, then the version is too low. You need 0.18 at least

EtherPro[m]: what is the exact issue? going to the settings -> info page is not anything that can fail

EtherPro[m]: Gui version:. 0.18.1.0-unknown (Qt 5.15.5

ok, version looks good. now also post "wallet mode" and "wallet restore height"

selsta: I reset the height earlier to reset the block. Someone did that to fix a similar problem. Via Reddit

ok, still post what the page says next to "wallet mode" and "wallet restore height"

selsta: Wallet height 2676868. Advanced mode

EtherPro[m]: does it say Advanced mode (Local node) or Advanced mode (Remote node) ?

selsta: Advanced mode(remote node)

ok, which remote node do you have set? You can check in Settings -> Node

selsta: Https://anstee.dev:18081

where did you find that remote node?

Should I use more than one?

it is outdated that's why your funds don't show up

set a node from here for example: nodes.monero.com

or you can set a remote node from this comment monero-project/monero-gui #3989#issuecomment-1214412781

selsta: Ok, I will try them both

<selsta> "it is outdated that's why your..." <- That fixed the problem surprisingly. Thank you.

Thanks for ping Rucknium

lol

maybe we should have a standard set of data to ask someone when debugging their wallet issue? wallet version, source for binary, wallet height, remote node

for sure

please fill out this questionnaire

We moving too fast for maps

Vroom

Needs an update though

Triptych is off the table, bp+ is implemented,

I made a PR but i put some useless stuff in it and now the dates are confirmed i can update

monero-project/monero-site #1989 needs doscussion (other than than correcting the release dates / adding v0.18.1.0 too

Retro active roadmap

things i'm looking forward to that could maybe be added: remote view key syncything, standardized seeds with built in block height, subaddress support for lws, noise protocol(?)

we got a pr for subaddrs in a little

no big

bulletproofs69x+

endogenic: you did it?

yeah haha i designed it and built it like 6 mos ago

and like, a lot of other cool stuff

when can it be moved into vtnerd's lws server

anytime. j and i are already on it

so i can go haha git pull

we talked for like 3 wks about it haha

ya i mean

if anyone cares to support me

for once

it might help

.bbl

wen ccs

la

la->wow* nice work endogenic

maybe if we change the name back to ffs

plowsof: <3

anyway I might put up a proposal after I release the initial stage of what I've been working on. So people know it's real

pretty sad though

haha fuck well it it's a matter of mymonero getting the money instead

maybe i should do the ccs sooner

i have a couple people coming on who are actual monero true believers

theyre sacrificing pay to actually help monero and hopefully have success later

i hope this means something to this community still

i'm barely scraping by though

i went into debt for this

well, and for the prev attempt

so if the community is serious this time then i'm ready

we already have a way faster lws server

than anything else

and client libs much improved

but same api

not the one that got ruined

yknow. if anyone even wants a central lws anymore

i see how it can be useful. but i'm not very interested in it anymore

i have better solutions

i wish people would listen to me a little

arent you tired of being scammed?

lol

you should hold out for better

Press enter less

endogenic: Sending messages little by little is not the answer

Those messages hurt my brain 🥲

Ranting etc. Put that in a paragraph with periods please.

i'm not ranting. To be quite honest it seems there are some very serious misunderstandings in this community. in any case, as you wish

Pressing send 55x with no punctuation = rant

Or perhaps I should say spam?

Im nor referring to your tone, but to the lack of punctuation that makes it incredibly hard to read without a beer
