07:07:44 <evalda[m]> <d34d8its[m]> "How do you convert cash to..." <- Can buy BTC with whatever method you like/available and then convert to XMR on crypoexchange (no KYC of cause) over Tor
09:41:46 <ofrnxmr[m]> Bitcoin blockchain looking like a joke
09:42:09 <ofrnxmr[m]> Only 3000 bloated tx pending 33mb mempool 
09:42:16 <ofrnxmr[m]> 18 blocks

09:43:46 <ofrnxmr[m]> Current block real tx on the right, those evenly sized tx fill up the remainder of the bloadn

09:44:50 <ofrnxmr[m]> Different amounts, jut identical size and fee rate for each tx
09:49:15 <sech1> What's inside those transactions? Maybe some message?
09:57:59 <ofrnxmr[m]> "Shoulda used monero"? Haha
10:19:15 <sech1> Really?

10:23:01 <ofrnxmr[m]> Nah. I dont know the significance of the spam but its pretty consistent at 3500 pending tx
10:23:10 <ofrnxmr[m]> This pic was 2.5 hrs ago^
10:27:20 <sech1> so they spam mempool with huge 1vsat/byte transactions
10:30:35 <ofrnxmr[m]> Stepped their game up kow

10:33:09 <ofrnxmr[m]> Or not. Jsut front running.
10:33:09 <ofrnxmr[m]> Those smaller tx are now around 7 blocks behind in the queue

15:07:11 <RavFX[m]> Saw it very live the other day.
15:07:11 <RavFX[m]> was waiting for my TX con confirm, it was only one block in the mempool.
15:07:11 <RavFX[m]> the moment that the first mempool was fool, another **complete (full)** block spawned instantly, with these very symmetrical 1 sat/vB TX in it.

15:15:10 <nioc> what it looks like on IRC when you edit  ^^^
15:19:59 <nioc> not all is shown, libera throttled me  :D
15:32:10 <RavFX[m]> But, I like to edit!

15:32:48 <RavFX[m]> Lol, I will try to read myself before pressing Enter then
15:32:53 <nioc> RavFX[m]: appreciate that you want to do good work  :)
15:33:49 <plowsof11> ofrnxmr pings intensify 
15:36:19 <RavFX[m]> It make nice separations :)
16:29:39 <martin03[m]> anyone run a teller business for buy/sell monero?... (full message at <https://libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/v3/download/libera.chat/101d11648689894ebedfcb1e9bf94f0b6631da46>)

18:46:13 <kinghat[m]> cake wallet users:
18:46:13 <kinghat[m]> > if someone opened their receive tab, had "primary address" selected, copy pasted that address for someone to send to, the only reason they wouldnt see xmr sent to them would be that the wallet isnt synced?
19:11:35 <selsta> are they synced?
19:13:01 <kinghat[m]> trying to help them and i dont have hands on device. i just told them to wait till i can look at it.
19:13:49 <kinghat[m]> just thinking through what all could have gone wrong.
19:16:22 <plowsof11> if the wallet isn't synced they won't see it 
19:17:09 <kinghat[m]> hope its that. though, it should just be syncing automagically for them 🤷‍♂️
19:17:27 <kinghat[m]> even on ios
19:18:19 <rbrunner> I would also vote for "not synced". Because things like the node they connect to not connected with the wider Monero network seem improbable.
19:18:47 <rbrunner> Or even theories that the connected node is malicious and just ignores their transaction :)
19:19:27 <rbrunner> (after acknowledging, of course)
19:20:50 <kinghat[m]> when i can get my hands on the device ill report back my findings.
20:20:14 <Mumuks> https://bitcoinmagazine.com/culture/bitcoin-and-homesteading-in-portugal
20:20:21 <DanIsnotthemanBr> Either wrong address or not syncd.. tells you at the top of the screen “synchronised”
20:27:40 <rbrunner> DanIsnotthemanBr: Maybe read again, your own address can't possibly be wrong :)
20:28:23 <DanIsnotthemanBr> Fake news
20:40:23 <kinghat[m]> all good. their wallet wasnt connecting. reboot of the phone did the trick.
20:40:51 <nioc> turn it off and on again  :D
20:42:02 <kinghat[m]> this is the way
20:44:17 <DanIsnotthemanBr> Ctrl alt defeat
20:55:07 <rbrunner> Buhuh.
21:15:28 <rbrunner> Maybe this shows some potential to improve Cake Wallet's warning and error messages if connecting to the daemon runs into problems?
22:26:55 <kinghat[m]> ya it could be done so it grabs your attention but isn't alarming for new people either.
