00:14:40 before I read the second milestone I thought Polish GBPs were bulletproofs from poland 00:18:47 Yes and I replied (replying here with my Matrixorg backup should you not have seen them). My replies were the same as what was hinted at by dEBRUYN E: If you're going for awareness and reach, posting a link on Reddit to whatever resource that explicitedly references Monero... release notes, blog post, podcast episode with Monero in the description, whatever and you should be fine. 00:18:47 You can also do the same for TikTok, Instagram, with a #Monero hashtag 00:32:42 Interesting 00:32:43 Well if that’s the case then studying the fallout should be fun to watch 01:12:04 Uniswap v2 is decentralized, except for a bounded fee which can be set (which was by the company or the DAO). Uniswap v3 pools are similar AFAIK. 01:13:30 what happened today 01:16:31 did i miss a special event in the world? I was offline for 3 days, why did XMR's price plummet? 01:21:39 https://youtu.be/hym1ENWii4k 01:23:07 valid response ngl 01:23:09 i just thought perhaps something had gone terribly wrong 01:23:30 i mean, the black marble attack intensified today 01:23:36 oh 01:23:48 and kraken said it was gonna delist in belgium and ireland 01:23:55 altho not sure if that was today 01:24:01 but i mean, that's a normal friday 01:24:12 nothing too crazy 01:26:00 I looked it up that was yesterday and the price remained relatively stable following the announcement in media outlets. But probably played a role in today's price 01:26:17 if you insist 01:26:22 thanks for your answers 01:28:02 perhaps i've developed a thick skin over the years and nothing really fazes me anymore 🤷 01:29:16 but i do believe that monero has passed over much more challenging hardships in the past 03:14:32 Thanks, are there any ways to get some related tweets out on the twitter account? 03:14:33 Also there was some interest from the community of possibly running a competition like the Litecoin foundation has run in partnership with Particl.io and BasicSwapDEX.com 03:14:34 https://twitter.com/litecoin/status/1777443875109621798 03:15:29 I think it would be good to help spread awareness for places to trade and spend XMR now it's being pulled out European, Asians and US exchanges. 03:15:44 I think it would be good to help spread awareness for places to trade and spend XMR now it's being pulled off European, Asians and US exchanges. 03:16:38 > <@xmrscott:matrix.org> Yes and I replied (replying here with my Matrixorg backup should you not have seen them). My replies were the same as what was hinted at by dEBRUYN E: If you're going for awareness and reach, posting a link on Reddit to whatever resource that explicitedly references Monero... release notes, blog post, podcast episode with Monero in the description, whateve 03:16:38 r and you should be fine. You can also do the same for TikTok, Instagram, with a #Monero hashtag 03:16:39 Thanks, I'll let them know. 03:16:40 Are there any ways to get some related tweets out on the twitter account too? 03:16:41 There was some interest from the community of possibly running a competition like the Litecoin foundation has run in partnership with Particl.io and BasicSwapDEX.com 03:16:42 https://twitter.com/litecoin/status/1777443875109621798 03:18:20 I think it would be good to help spread awareness for places to trade and spend XMR now it's being pulled off European, Asians and US exchanges. 03:19:06 It also provides an unstoppable way to spend XMR on a safe marketplace where buyers and sellers remain anonymous and can never get scammed. As we've seen with recent marketplace exit scams and blackmailing users over there data. 03:19:13 It also provides an unstoppable way to spend XMR on a safe marketplace where buyers and sellers remain anonymous and can never get scammed. As we've seen with recent marketplace exit scams and blackmailing users over their data. 03:23:11 I think it would be good to help spread awareness for places to trade and spend XMR now it's being pulled off European, Asians and US exchanges. From what I gather it's the only bidirectional atomic swap option? 03:33:37 It also provides an unstoppable way to spend XMR on a safe marketplace where buyers and sellers remain anonymous and can never get scammed. A paradigm shift from the status quo with exit scams and more recently blackmailing users over their data. 03:53:32 If Twitter doesn't allow for direct messaging the account to ask directly... I don't speak for the individual(s) who run the account, but if you make a Monero specific tweet while @'ing them there is a non-zero chance they'll retweet it 05:26:11 💯 05:30:18 Cool, I'll ask them to DM the @monero twitter account. Thanks. 06:34:57 +400 xmr donation to the general fund. The anonymous donation spam attack continues 06:35:46 Some new proposals on the ideas page also https://ccs.getmonero.org/ideas/ 06:41:08 Wen 420.69? 06:51:22 I wonder how long it will take until strange conspiracy theories will spring up that try to explain those large donations, who makes them, how they can afford to donate so much, what's their motivation, and so on. It does get a wee bit strange IMHO. 06:54:35 rbrunner7 weirdest one, at least in contemporary times was the one whose goal was to purchase monero.com from cake. the GitHub comment and all. 06:56:34 Right. 06:58:53 'We are Monero...' https://github.com/monero-project/monero-site/pull/2013#issuecomment-1234523829 07:00:24 I wrote a fiction short story where remarkable donations play an important role in the plot: https://rbrunner7.github.io/fear.html 07:02:05 I that monero-gui thing was supposed to warn people about updating? 07:02:16 Why there still people using 0.18.0.0 07:14:33 Just tested with a 0.18.3.1 I still had (I normally use feather) 07:14:34 Yep it does ask me to update it, I assume it did not back in the 0.18.0.0 days. 07:20:30 Sure. And then any ask for an unban in here results in a new ban. Same for mentioning the banned. Or any complaining about any of the moderation. 07:20:43 ravfx this is true, the update prompt was a new addition, but i think it was after 17.3.2 selsta 07:21:11 someone was using 17.3.0 the other day in support :( 07:21:36 Cool then. 07:21:37 People should press the download/update button when it ask lol 07:21:38 I just helped someone that was using 0.18.0.0 07:24:28 3 letter agencies have performed a psyop with the WinRar license pop up that we clicked away so often that it happened subconsciously (during our windows XP phase). Our brains use the same pathways to click the 'there is an update available' box away (this is a joke) 07:26:30 🙏🏾 07:27:33 💯 07:32:02 <3​21bob321:monero.social> its good when you can attack someone when they cant defend themselves 07:32:08 <3​21bob321:monero.social> weak 07:43:55 Dan (Is not the man & Braxman Tomsparks Advocate) Backup: how do you like being the first news in issue 192? ;-) 07:45:02 <3​21bob321:monero.social> Wasnt me \0/ 07:51:48 I miss Howard. 08:07:32 Very random and old message to reply to. 🤔 08:19:12 Fuk can’t take a chill pill 09:14:03 When the robots rise up they'll take out tranny's first. 09:24:28 luigi1111w: plowsof , xmrscott are you all really this incapable of fixing this? 1 of the most important devs to the entire project just spelled out to you that they will not tolerate disruption and you still can’t do anything? 09:30:53 <3​21bob321:monero.social> So when he says jump? We go how high? 09:33:31 <3​21bob321:monero.social> There was coc in the room header pointing to libre.chat and matrix coc. 09:37:47 What are you talking about? 09:38:23 <3​21bob321:monero.social> You talking about lukes comments. 09:39:09 Who/what was said ? 09:40:50 Who is “he” and who is giving out commands? 09:41:29 Obviously 09:41:37 Who is “he” and what commands are being given out? 09:45:21 It’s not just 1 person. Anyone that actually does shit around here is fed up with the non-sense. And they’ll likely do the same if the non sense continues. The only people that are for continued disruptive behavior don’t contribute much (except for Monerobull). 09:46:19 If people want lulz they should go somewhere else for that shit 09:49:38 <3​21bob321:monero.social> Rip 09:49:45 <3​21bob321:monero.social> Lives under a rock 09:53:28 Opensource means freedom of speech 09:53:55 Especially when it directly relates to monero 09:56:31 if devs have so much problem, they should stick to dev channels where such trolling is not allowed 09:59:28 I agree 10:10:53 <3​21bob321:monero.social> With lukes proposal he wants 3k xmr, but lists cost for some? 10:11:26 meanwhile this channel is supposed to be where the CCS work happens which is directly related to funding the devs 10:11:40 why would they be interested? 10:11:51 it's not a place for trolling 10:12:05 <3​21bob321:monero.social> Tbh audit should be done by independant peoples 10:16:58 bob although it does not specify who is doing the auditing the discussion in MRL was as you suggest 10:17:45 in the past important changes have had multiple audits 10:27:12 got the exact same thought 10:29:10 Kayabanerves proposal is 880xmr for his own tasks (first set of milestones with amounts) the rest is for an MRL pot 10:35:06 I got a theory: Kayaba is actually in contact with a ransomware gang, that purposefully send its treasury to the general fund, so that Kayaba can receive this money in public. That's why the amount we've been receiving since its first gist draft of FCMP+SA+L correlate with the CCS amount. \* drop the mic \* 11:06:32 <3​21bob321:monero.social> -.- 11:45:12 Hopefully this isn't going to trigger another storm in the channel. 11:45:12 I've opened PR on my repo for the CoC (since its what it is supposed to be called). It is a lightly modified version of the Covenant Contributors CoC. I've marked the differences in the PR description: https://github.com/SyntheticBird45/monero-community-guideline/pull/1 11:45:13 Critics of these changes are appreciated. 11:46:50 Covenant CoC? Isn't it that woke retard CoC? 11:47:01 Strong no from me 11:47:14 wait read before judging please 11:47:38 The only CoC we need will have one line 11:47:47 "Don't be a jerk" 11:47:54 Done 11:49:03 I'm on my phone now, will read it later 11:50:09 alr 12:23:19 Here's the jerk version: https://github.com/SyntheticBird45/monero-community-guideline/pull/2 12:46:36 I think there's a happy medium between these two proposals. On one hand, it's pointless trying to exhaustively list all the different categories that one could harass another person against. Might as well mention accent, high metabolism, general goofy demeanor, and the quantity of fruits and veggies your parents fed you as a toddler. In addition to that, the wording of the covenan 12:46:37 t CoC makes it seem like harassment only comes from people exploiting each other's inherent social differences, when sometimes people are just jerks for no reason. Also, sometimes people are jerks for political reasons but hide it behind some other reason. On the other hand, the term "jerk" is ambiguous, and sometimes being a jerk is the best way to get a point across and actually 12:46:38 get people to change their minds and get off their asses. 12:50:52 We should be careful of the optics of adopting the Covenant CoC and excluding some ,but not all, of the personal characteristics in the "Our Pledge" section. For example, just dropping "race" and "color" makes it seem like we're okay with people harassing people based on race and color, but not those other properties lol 12:51:03 meeting in 2 hours 12:51:35 community meeting in 2 hours https://github.com/monero-project/meta/issues/988 12:52:15 matrix issue persist and irc is recommended? 12:52:34 yeah probably 12:52:57 Thanks for the insights, I see exactly what you mean. I'll try to address all of that in a third iteration. 12:53:08 yes. 12:53:19 yes still broken* :( 12:53:53 yesterday this channel somehow got updated on matrix.org near instantly because of the high activity. But for the meeting it'll not be the case 13:31:51 <3​21bob321:monero.social> Better of using monerologs with your on the matrix 13:46:39 > "- Do not be a Jerk" 13:46:40 Why Jerk is capitalized? 13:48:00 > "* Accepting responsibility and apologizing we fucked up" 13:48:01 I'm so sorry that you fucked up, lol. WTF is this? 13:48:09 well. I thought sech1 wrote it with a capital 13:48:23 when* 13:49:09 hey alright you got pointoffailure I'm making lot of typos. Wait for when it's not draft anymore 13:49:11 > "Having read, "All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten" (ISBN: 978-0-8041-0526-2)" 13:49:12 Did you get a donation for a product placement? 13:50:01 I'm corrupted yes. Why is this question. That's obvious that I'm completely biaised and that Robert Fulghum paid me 13:52:20 > A bad actor Jerk is someone ... needlessly argumentative 13:52:21 In other words someone who doesn't agree with you? 13:53:36 > "Community moderators are responsible for exterminating the Jerks." 13:53:37 ... With their disintegrator rays, lol 13:53:42 Alright so the fact that you are taking seriously the jerk version worry me. This is was supposed to half a meme. And wtf are you taking this one me, this is literally the definition coming from the monero repository 13:53:57 Alright so the fact that you are taking seriously the jerk version worry me. This is was supposed to half a meme. And wtf are you taking this on me, this is literally the definition coming from the monero repository 13:55:36 > "Community moderators have the right and responsibility to discuss whether someone is a Jerk." 13:55:36 That's exactly the issue that turned the Monero community into a dumpster fire 13:57:30 > "Being a Jerk is a fatality." 13:57:31 lol 13:57:40 Not in that sense. It's about discussing between moderators if someone's act is violating the rules or not. There is always a need for flexibility. What turned this channel into a dumpster fire is that ofrnxmr fan used several logical fallacies to justify that ofrnxmr is actually ok and that we're tyrans. 14:00:10 So far this one is cringe, looking for a "serious one" now 14:03:25 <3​21bob321:monero.social> Also will magic chip in for luke ccs? Since hes a board member? 14:26:23 No it's the opposite. MAGIC cannot host fundraising for or give grants to MAGIC Monero Fund committee members. It's a conflict of interest. 14:39:06 I'm reading https://github.com/SyntheticBird45/monero-community-guideline/blob/channels_coc/CHANNELS_CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md now 14:39:08 "everyone, regardless of age, body, size, disabilities, ethnicity, sex characteristics, level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, religion, or sexual identity and orientation" 14:39:25 why this long list? Does the word "everyone" not include everyone already? 14:39:50 The serious one is essentially the same as the jerk one but a lot more wordy. Even AIs generate less water. Whoever wrote it should stop writing lengthy texts and should start reading more books. 14:39:50 Both are cringe, just let the mods write down the list of the most common reasons they typically banned people in the past and that would be it 14:40:02 I agree with you. It's just Covenant Contributor way. I opened a *Jerk* version and Jeffro shared the same opinion. It's useless to enumerate everything 14:40:07 "diverse, inclusive, and healthy community" makes me want to throw up. "Diverse, inclusive" are the words with bad reputation, it's the woke shit 14:40:59 the jerk version for reference: https://github.com/SyntheticBird45/monero-community-guideline/blob/channels_jerk/CHANNELS_CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md. It was supposed to be a joke but somehow it's more attractive 14:41:01 "The use of sexualized language or imagery" why not? 14:41:26 Posting sexy Monerochan pics not allowed anymore? 14:41:41 I think it is just in appropriate channel 14:41:47 Why such prejudice against sex and sexuality? 14:42:05 Probably to avoid porn and horny discussions 14:42:14 nothing bad with that 14:42:16 But It deserve to be clearer 14:42:33 I don't want to see porn in monero channels... 14:42:50 If they're 18+ why not? 14:42:53 Please explain 14:43:10 It's just again the woke shit trying to make sex a taboo 14:43:58 it's not woke its just ridiculous in serious channels to talk about sex, it just makes you look like an addict somehow. I guess you can talk of that in offtopic 14:44:12 that's my opinion but some might join your opinion 14:44:26 if more people don't condemn I can remove it 14:44:27 Also, I don't see why even mention it if Monero development, or general Monero topics are not related to sex/sexuality in any way. Except for maybe using Monero to pay for adult entertainent services 14:45:21 Which is a topic that can be discussed at some point, and this CoC straight up disallows it 14:46:24 monerochans hot af whats wrong with you 14:46:28 That's because some might think its ok to say *hot pussy* or *fucking cock* in a channel like Community Workgroup or Community dev. It's the primary concerns. It don't mean to disallow talking sexuality it's just condemn overusing it to appear innapropriate 14:46:40 inappropriate* 14:47:00 lol, and I thought monero-pools was as horny as it gets in Monero :D 14:47:39 there is a #monero-pool ? 14:47:52 lol 14:48:02 yes, but please don't join our little horny channel :D 14:48:24 tell monerochan to send nodes 14:48:27 alright. I'll add a mention that some rules do not apply when the channel description state about it 14:53:05 no necessarily state about it. but at least its clear somehow, somewhere 15:00:00 meeting time? 15:00:17 rbrunner7: 15:00:23 wrong handle mb 15:00:40 Meeting time https://github.com/monero-project/meta/issues/988 15:00:48 Greetings! https://github.com/monero-project/meta/issues/988 15:01:00 Hi :3 15:01:09 hello 15:01:36 yo 15:01:50 Hi. 15:02:14 lets touch on some highlights as there is alot to cover in this meeting 15:02:28 any highlights people wish to share? :) 15:03:38 Hi 15:04:03 the latest revuoxmr issue @ https://www.revuo-xmr.com/issue-192.html has a screenshot of a monero hash chart, and p2pool is ranked quite high... as high as 3rd infact " - [p2pool top 3 hashrate!](https://p2pool.io/u/c8902bf0da0668c2/image.png) - sech1" 15:04:40 hi, am here but probably can't reply in time due to matrix issues 15:04:54 General fund donations.... an extra 400 xmr received today... 99.... many 100's... it continues.. i am losing track. amazing to see 15:05:12 @hinto https://web.libera.chat/ #monero-community channel 15:06:39 yes, matrix issues ongoing, can follow on monerologs.net to see replies (if you're on matrix dot org) 15:07:06 News: [Monero Observer](https://www.monero.observer/) - [Revuo Monero](https://revuo-xmr.com/) - [The Monero Standard](https://localmonero.co/the-monero-standard) - [Monero Moon](https://www.themoneromoon.com/) 15:07:47 we can jump into the ccs ideas unless people want to share something else? 15:07:57 rbrunner7 "wrote a fiction short story where remarkable donations play an important role in the plot: rbrunner7.github.io/fear.html " 15:08:21 Hi! I wanted to discuss concerns about @kayabaNerve's FCMPs+SA+L proposal and how it relates to Seraphis integration. I think its so cool that it might actually be possible, and I'm genuinely impressed that Luke was able to write up a possible path for it. However, I don't think that this should be the path forwards for the protocol for numerous reasons, and bottom line, I think that in practice, trying to do FCMPs+SA+L on Ring 15:08:21 CT won't actually deliver FCMP privacy must faster than if we go with Seraphis first. As such, I also don't think that we should be prioritizing generalized bulletproof audits before Seraphis audits in the CCS 15:08:25 crazy 15:08:29 ^ that my backup account (because .org is not reliable) 15:08:44 I am trying to get clues about the IP address origin of the new suspected spam transactions. If you run a node and want to share data with me later, please input `set_log net.p2p.msg:INFO` in your `monerod` console. Or if you don't use `monerod` in interactive mode, you can restart with the `--log-level=net.p2p.msg:INFO` flag. The information in this log will contain data on exact 15:08:44 ly when you are getting new transactions from each of your peers. 15:08:58 hi all 15:09:15 This will add about 1GB of data per day to your log file. Probably I would want to collect it in about a week. 15:09:24 thanks for confirming ct 15:09:43 1GB of data per day , thanks for the headsup, ill be checking closely 15:10:12 General Fund contributes to two proposals: [Rucknium Statistical Research](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/439#note_24009) and [CypherStack Generalized Bulletproofs Security Proofs](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/443#note_24008) 15:10:39 received quite a positive reaction on the twitters^ its nice to see the general fund contributing 15:11:13 thanks jeffro256we can jump into that in more detail soon 15:11:16 Why was the GBP proposal merged so fast? 15:11:53 jeffro256: Strong support at two MRL meetings 15:11:58 was a factor AFIAK 15:12:06 we even delayed it by a few days to reach the 2nd MRL meeting 15:12:29 I guess that's on me for not attending those meetings, but I thought all CCS proposals take at least 10 days to merge 15:12:39 My only concern is that FCMP looks like its being rushed through - are there appropriate 3rd party reviews or processes not coming from Luke that are overseeing this? 15:12:53 <0​xfffc:matrix.org> Hi all 15:12:55 there was also a call for more autonomy in the 1st meeting so proposals from MRL can be discussed / merged quicker. this is why (although its not a hard rule) to let them vote officially on merging to the CCS at the last meeting 15:13:08 IMHO, if Cypher Stack cannot produce a security proof for GBP, then CS resources should go to Seraphis mathematics analysis. 15:13:56 i second this. seraphis is taking extremely slow and careful progress, not so with FCMP 15:14:46 yeah 15:15:04 That is mainly because FCMP+SA+L is meant to be deployed asap. The question would be if the CCS and actual proposal take consideration of this cycle for security analysis. 15:15:33 AFAIK, everyone involved in FCMP has said that they need mathematical security proofs, review of those security proofs, and audits of the implementation code before they are deployed on Monero's mainnet. 15:15:49 asap doesn't sound right to me. luke's tone in the last meeting seemed alarmist and thats how mistakes are made 15:16:00 ASAP doesn't sound right to me. Luke's tone in the last meeting seemed alarmist and thats how mistakes are made. 15:16:01 how do we feel aboutwhat happened with the GBP proposal. that it was primarily discussed in the MRL meetings, and voted on merge there? i hope this makes sense 15:16:50 I have a few scattered thoughts about FCMPs+SA+L that I'll put here (I'll do a better write-up later). For context, I'll start by giving a quick update where Seraphis integration is right now, since the stated reason for doing FCMPs+SA+L on RingCT is to get FCMPs out as soon as possible. Seraphis research is done, Seraphis PoC is done (with mocked blockchain), @dangerousfreedom has written a basic CLI that can import legacy wal 15:16:51 let files, create Seraphis txs, and transfer funds (using the fake blockchain object). New Jamtis changes need to be merged, but that doesn't really affect Core integration, just wallet library dev. Speaking of wallet library dev, @jberman has released a new async wallet scanner which is reportedly up to 2x faster than wallet2. The seraphis integration project is also spearheading phasing out wallet2, which devs have wanted for 15:16:51 years. 15:16:58 im not knocking it technically, just wanna make sure were not rushing into anything too fast without proper caution 15:18:04 thanks for the update jeffro256 15:18:28 awesome, is there an ETA on "wallet3"? 15:19:17 In the FCMP+SA+L proposal, Luke states that it is a "drop-in" replacement for CLSAGs. This is a mistake, in my opinion, and downplays the extensive work needed to integrate FCMPs. For example, we will have to make extensive changes to BlockchainLMDB to support the merkle trees, the transaction input format will change (no more txin_to_key) , we will need to add an RPC interface for grabbing tree paths, we will need to update wa 15:19:17 llet2 to support fetching and construct proofs on the merke tree, there will have to be non-trivial changes to the tx validation logic in the Blockchain class, and we will have to add and maintain new base crypto libraries. 15:20:50 Right, its a huge task and needs to be treated with care. Spam attacks be damned, there's no reason to rush. 15:21:46 Is there a reason FCMP isn't coming as part of Seraphis? 15:22:09 jeffro256: When you have important input on FCMP and Seraphis, try to come to MRL meetings. That's OK if you were taking a break :) 15:22:13 there will be more overlap between no-wallet-left-behind and monero-research-lab now it seems both of which have weekly meetings 15:22:48 What is holding up Seraphis development right now IS integration (for the most part). Integration into Monero core is just plain difficult, and IMO is hard to overstate. There are few people that can actually do c++ monero-project integration and trying to do FCMP+SA+L integration will split that human capital up. Not to mention, it will make Seraphis integration down the road harder since now there is effectively FOUR differen 15:22:48 t tx protocols (CN, RCT, RCT w/ FCMP, Seraphis). 15:23:37 Wouldn't it be a possibility to hire freelance developers to help at integrating into the monero codebase ? 15:24:12 we'd want some one in house for something that senstive i think 15:24:21 Back in July kayabaNerve promised to me "Rucknium: I can promise you that I won't sign off on deploying this [FCMP] without: 1) Review of the application of divisors 2) A proven and reviewed VCS scheme 3) Multiple audits 4) A better understanding of what should be audited, what should be formally verified, and further criteria established on those bounds." https://libera.monerolo 15:24:21 gs.net/monero-community/20230727#c269844 15:24:48 The turnaround time for doing so would likely cause it so slow down more (Mythical Man Month). If we hire good devs now, they might be really useful in a year's time 15:24:53 Because I said "I've brought up the issue of putting carts before horses many times. I don't see others really caring about it, so I'll stop bringing it up. If new cryptography goes on Monero mainnet without mathematical security proofs, reviews of those security proofs, and code audits, I'll re-evaluate my continued contributions to the project." https://libera.monerologs.net/mon 15:24:53 ero-community/20230727#c269838 15:26:00 agree with this 100% and thanks for your cautious approach 15:26:23 I hate to be the party pooper on this issue and tell people to wait, but adding more technical debt to RingCT and trying to rush integration will not benefit Monero long-term IMO. And if integration is NOT rushed for FCMP+SA+L, then Seraphis will almost certainly be ready for deployment at that point anyways 15:27:03 if we could conclude the highlights shortly with food left for thought to be discussed in detail at no-wallet-left-behind / monero-research-lab that would be ideal so we have time to cover the ccs ideas and any other business. cc rbrunner7 for your comments jeffro 15:27:08 would using Cuprate as the initial test bed for FCMP integration make sense? I believe it would be much easier to integrate (no C++ bindings and concept translations, Cuprate would just directly/natively use the FCMP repo) and we could iron out kinks before integration into monero-core 15:29:36 so wownero and cuprate have threw their name into their hat for FCMP tests, nice 15:29:44 s/their/the 15:29:48 I believe rust library testing would be hard through FFI for monero core 15:30:20 Assuming the network waits for it to be integrated into Monero core, then we still have the problem of integrating into Monero core, regardless of Cuprate's status. The concepts of using the FCMP API are not necessarily hard, but it is hard to communicate all of the difficulties with integrating novel consensus approaches into Monero core code, as the codebase itself makes it difficult 15:30:59 thanks jeffro, i think we can now conclude the communiyt highlights and return to those topics later. lets discuss the ccs ideas list 15:31:07 Alright 15:31:17 https://ccs.getmonero.org/ideas/ 15:31:30 a. [Unnamed Monero Wallet development](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/437) 15:32:11 hey! xmruw dev here, monero.dart is getting more adoption with some wallets checking them out in their codebase (stack and cake), some bugs were smashed around that time 15:32:41 we were able to clean up patches, add few extra debug screens to the wallet, and work on code documentation 15:34:45 and I think that's it, goals from the CCS were not met, but overall quality improved 15:35:05 Since Cake apparently relies on this software library, have you approached them about funding? 15:36:09 cake funded the work on implementing the monero.dart in cake, we will see how it goes when this is done. 15:37:41 I vote for merge. 15:38:53 Are there examples of devs using this library for non proprietary wallets? Nothing inherently wrong with for-profit wallets like Cake, but I just want to see some community usage before going ahead and merging, to prevent a scenario in which Cake intentionally or unintentionally socializes their dev costs with the CCS 15:39:34 (or Stack, not to pick on Cake) 15:39:42 xmruw.net, stack and cake currently. Considering that the library is still being worked on I see this as a large interest 15:39:51 and these are open source wallets as far as I know. 15:39:58 cuprate devs also provide work for serei / inadvertantly or specifically via pull requests, would that be similar? 15:40:06 serai 15:40:42 serai has done more to help Cuprate than the other way round 15:41:18 thanks for clarifying boog900 15:41:39 well cake doesn't fund monero.dart development, cake funds the implementation in their wallet - which doesn't overlap with the ccs 15:41:40 Also Serai AFAIK (could be wrong) is an open protocol, and does not have dev taxes, paid promotions, affiliation income, etc 15:41:43 ( apologies for interjecting.

We still want Seraphis and Jamtis to move forward, after all. 15:52:27 Seraphis General Paper Review: Is there a way to hide the proposal from the ideas page, but keep it open. Draft status? AFAIK, we will wait for CS progress on GBP security proofs before merging the Seraphis review. 15:52:49 DF edited his proposal description but not the merge request/file when lowering his xmr amount - so it went to funding slightly higher than intended. this was my mistake for not checking, just as it was with jeffros amount . he decided to only accept the intended lower amount when receiving his payout for the last proposal. 15:53:15 changing the file extension should make it disappear from the website 15:53:30 dangerousfreedom has been learning very quickly and has been contributing more and more, doing good testing, and writing a great wallet3 CLI demo 15:53:32 the several xmr now reside in the ccs wallet currently. just informing 15:54:01 good to know 15:54:04 good point ct 15:54:07 jeffro256 and rbrunner7 : I was waiting to see your thoughts on dangerousfreedom's proposal :) The work is technical and hard for non-C++ programmers to evaluate. 15:54:26 +1 dangerousfreedom 15:54:30 Should have commented on the proposal itself ... 15:54:50 looks like everything is moving smoothly with DF then :) thank you for the feedback support ACK 15:55:14 now moving on 15:55:19 e. [help ofrnxmr take over the world](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/444) 15:55:41 almost 60 comments last time i checked 15:55:56 the hottest proposal currently 15:56:05 the latest edit 15:56:09 will anyone be brave enough 15:56:48 If we ignore people feelings regarding ofrnxmr. It is clear that this proposal can't pass for credibility reasons 15:57:10 I stand by my comments. It needs to follow basic CCS milestones/structured payouts. Entire sum upfront is unacceptable. 15:57:19 "100% paid to the CCS coordinator at the time of funding." (that would be myself) 15:57:30 it 50% upfront to ofrn 15:57:34 its 50% upfront to ofrn 15:57:37 50% after funded 15:57:44 It needs heavy modifications to be considered 15:57:46 50% to be held 15:57:58 these are the latest modifications^ 15:58:03 Agreed. 15:58:15 lol 50% upfront? 15:58:37 it did get heavy modifications, did you read the updates? 15:58:40 yes, immediately after funding to clarify 15:59:31 50% upfront so he can reinvest into other people to help him. do you think he will run off with the money? 15:59:44 for the ofrnxmr's existence (instead of specific milestone based) seems to be in response to kayabanerves feedback 15:59:54 Also, the "I am the deliverable" thing needs clarifying - this isn't a proposal with a "physical" deliverable like code/software. 16:00:56 the supporters and detractors must review the latest changes 16:00:59 yes, what will we get with funding it 16:01:13 It's not about whether we trust him or not. Some people have been rejected for more serious proposal. We can't just let this pass and say its because it is ofrnxmr. CCS shouldn't be based on trust of the author 16:01:28 oh detherminal, are you the owner of the "dethe" accounts leaving multiple down votes? 16:01:32 up from me, I didn't had much interactions with him but he is always helpful, knows many people and does a lot for the community, if there are people who support him they will donate - if not it won't get funded. 16:01:33 ""I am the deliverable" That's not there anymore? 16:01:49 yeah plowsof, can we talk about that in dm 16:01:57 "I am explicitly requesting donations for my existence, and not "payment" for milestones." rbrunner 16:02:09 I have to leave on time unfortunately, thank you plowsof 16:02:10 nothing to talk about, its childish, please stop lol 16:02:13 Ah, ok 16:02:25 no, it is not the way you think 16:02:31 it is bugged 16:02:33 Yes, its contributions to the community throught soft skills are undeniable 16:02:34 thank you for attending ct, sorry for going over everyone 16:02:50 i have opened my first account with github and then disconnected it, now it doesnt allow me to relogin 16:03:19 if you have access to them can you please delete others except "detheforxmr" 16:03:49 ah ok detherminal thank you for clarifying i will ask 16:04:03 Same thing happened to me which is why my account is jeffro256_ 16:06:10 there are voters who simply feel ofrnxmr is intelligible for the role for his behaviour so they wont need to review the changes 16:06:36 the initial supporters who requested changes still will need to leave an update 16:07:04 this is the first time it has been brought up , at the end of an over time meeting 16:08:09 Yeah, seems to me it would be fair to take the new state of the proposal as a new "ground zero" and re-comment 16:08:24 indeed, lets move on 16:08:25 f. [Droplet - A New Easy To Use Mobile Wallet](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/445) 16:08:34 I want to strongly echo rbrunner's sentiment in the comments of this proposal. 16:08:53 Rewriting wallet2 (and the libraries it depends on) in dart is not realistic within the given timeframe. Off by an order of magnitude. And a substantial portion would have to be added/rewritten with seraphis / FCMPs. 16:09:08 Not to even start about the risks of reimplementing monero crypto, need for audits, transaction uniformity, supply chain risk of using random pubs, performance implications, etc.. 16:09:22 My suggestion to the proposer is to put their effort towards seraphis (#no-wallet-left-behind) if they want a future devoid of wallet2's spaghetti code. Or to help another project with UI/UX. 16:09:23 +1 to tobtoht_, last j0j0 comment under the proposal 16:09:41 +1 on issues with tx uniformity. 16:09:48 +1 to tobthot 16:10:30 seems like theres no changing of opinion unless this proposal is closed (if you share tobtoht/rbrunners sentiment) 16:10:36 Agreed. This is why I suggested for them to team up with XMRUW and focus on UI/UX side of things. 16:10:40 so the +1s would be in favour of closing? 16:10:54 yep 16:10:57 yep 16:11:00 yes 16:11:03 my 3 days old comment got no answer 16:11:05 https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/445#note_23960 16:11:05 same 16:11:13 thanks for hte feedback. lets move on (closing droplet) 16:11:15 g.

No objections to the funding scheme. 16:15:41 up from me to anonero, details in comments, would like better milestones.. 16:15:53 to clarify, there would be 50% upfront and the rest on completion of milestone2? 16:16:07 thx tobtoht 16:16:41 that was my request, also open to spliting into 3 payouts with solid test build in the middle 16:16:52 So many wallet-related proposals... I wonder if this due to wallet2 being terrible to work with. Hopefully Seraphis and wallet3 remedy this somewhat ... 16:16:59 would monero_c be involved? 16:17:02 wallet2 is really bad imo 16:17:17 it would not 16:17:26 or rather, required?

This means we would recover 50% if the venture fails for any reason 16:24:15 Though I understand that rewrites can take really long indefinite amounts of time, and I appreciate that you have an actual milestone for the other 50% 16:24:35 like i said, its not 100% - judging us for others behaviour doesnt seem fair 16:25:01 juding on it simply being a 1st ccs* 16:25:15 thats just technicality 16:25:23 im not unknown 16:26:04 so then perhaps confirming to the technicality with a minor adjustment would benefit your greatly 16:26:09 monero has lost larger amounts over worse ;) 16:26:32 or do we not compromise 16:26:41 What about a more fine-grained release schedule upfront? Say 10% upfront each month for five months, then other 50% (plus residual from first 5 months if done quickly) upon completion? 16:27:16 i said im willing to compromise to a 33% up front, 33% on first stable testing build, and 33% upon completion 16:27:39 any particular reason you can share on why 33% at minimum ? 16:28:06 i never said minimum. what do you have in mind? 16:28:09 conforming* 16:28:22 ofrn is askign for upfront 16:28:27 is this his first ccs? 16:28:28 plowsof> or do we not compromise <= CCS = Community Compromise System 16:28:35 lol 16:28:38 lmao 16:28:41 yeah and he probably wont get it lol 16:28:54 plowsof seemed in favor of it 16:29:04 My bad, I meant why 33% and not 10% per months as proposed by jeffro 16:29:07 i wont vote for it and a bare minimum until its not upfront 16:29:28 (ofnr's) 16:29:53 r4 how many people are on your team? 16:30:04 plowsof - comments? 16:30:13 2 16:30:16 so the current meta now is no upfront for 1st ccs' citation: monero archive 16:30:46 thanks 16:30:53 lets be clear that applys to all ccs then? 16:31:20 yes 16:31:59 make a ccs for 1 day of work instead and come back (this is a joke) but the technicallity should not stop you from entering the ccs after adjustments 16:32:21 exactly. its an arbitrary requirement 16:32:26 so what do you suggest? 16:33:25 luigi1112: how many people on your team* 16:33:36 2? 16:33:40 or was that not in response 16:33:46 2 16:33:46 oh sorry 16:33:52 yes that was my response 16:33:57 would piecemeal milestones not be possible 16:34:15 is any upfront payment not possible? 16:34:39 I'm not strictly against it but the part of playing favorites needs to be carefully considered 16:35:41 "for a 1st ccs" technicality . iirc isthmus requested 50% upfront for his last research proposal 16:36:09 its just funny that this only comes up now, and not on ofrnxmrs proposal 16:36:19 that one is 50/50 too 16:36:19 (in the vein of: new anon, no way obviously; past contributor (non CCS), what criteria for "enough") 16:36:20 https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/375 16:36:40 is this a 1st ccs who requested upfront and didnt get it (al be it because they decided to close their ccs) 16:36:45 r4 that's only one of the concerns with ofrn proposal and maybe not even the biggest one 16:36:55 surely 1.5 years of work on a project is credibility enough 16:37:06 were speaking strictly about the payout now tho 16:37:32 it was mentioned that he changed from 100% upfront to 50% up front and 50% later, and that was just glossed over as if it was ok 16:37:34 Total budget: 190 XMR, paid at the start of work to avoid exchange rate volatility risk. 16:39:27 i think we can put the comments to the community after the meeting is over for more feedback 16:39:32 @r4v3r23: I hadn't seen ofrn's proposal until just now and I brought it up 16:40:00 you are late to the party jeffro :D 16:40:08 fr 16:40:18 im referring to the convo that was had at the start when discussing his proposal 16:40:30 20/40/40 I would be ok with, or maybe some form of hours worked (1-2mo) for the first payout, with majority still being deliverables 16:40:54 the reception for ANONERO v1.0 is positive , just technicalities ^ is a sane suggestion 16:41:13 20 upfront, 40 on first working beta version, 40 on completion? 16:41:31 right, if those milestones are reasonable work wise 16:42:42 yeah, i mentioned in ccs comments we could add a test build corresponding to v0.5 features (about half way point in development) as a midpoint milestone 16:42:46 I'm also fine with 20/40/40 and the proposal in general 16:43:11 so 40 on delivery of that and 40 on final completion, and 20 upfront. sounds fair to me 16:43:15 20% upfront is ok? 16:43:24 sure 16:43:31 are you asking me or him 16:43:33 haha 16:43:35 thx jeffro & luigi 16:43:36 luigi 16:43:48 is 20% upfront ok* or where you saying 20% after hours worked 16:44:16 or has the 20% upfront changed opinions because its less of a % than 50? 16:44:19 I was saying either, given there history. I'm sensitive to the slippery slope argument tho (what about ME WHY CAN'T I HAVE UPFRONT PAYMENT) 16:44:32 their* 16:44:48 im in free fall after the slop already 16:44:51 20% sounds fair, not enought to rug, leave 80% incentive to make sure it gets done 16:44:52 slope* erm 16:45:18 upfront for a 1st ccs is ok* amounts and previous contributions are taken into account 16:45:27 Due to previous work spanning 1.5 years and the fact that the proposal is multiple people, 20% upfront is okay with me 16:45:37 so the monero archiver anons 1st ccs: no previous contribs -> no upfront 16:45:42 well kayaba got paid 300 for first ccs on past work 16:45:47 unless I'm forgetting a previous one 16:45:57 TBF that was a case where the work was already done 16:45:59 yes retroactive ok 16:46:13 Not upfront payment for future work 16:46:18 fair 16:46:24 you mean i can claim this ccs on current version hahaha 16:46:35 talking about slippery slope... 16:47:09 right lets move on then, make changes and gather feedback 16:47:14 i.

I do recall now that the funds were redirected from a previous unfinished CCS of the co-proposer, which changes the calculus. I think 20% upfront is fair. 16:48:10 I made allusions to this at the beginning of the meeting. I'm not in favor. Luke DM'ed me about it, but b/c of the Matrix problems IDK if he saw my response lol 16:49:27 (not in favor of 448) 16:49:32 this FCMP can be discussed at length at MRL , if anyone would like to provide some brief thoughts now. i know at least dan doesnt like the large pot combined / all in one 16:49:55 maybe if kayaba makes his own 880 xmr ccs. then another titled under "monero research lab" for the 2000~ xmr.. just a thought 16:50:28 yeah definitely in favor of splitting them 16:50:31 Shutting down soon unless plugged in ^ my apologies for going over. i must now dissipate 16:50:34 and maybe resplitting the second part 16:50:53 thank you all for attending , luigi please take the reigns 16:51:14 back to your regularly scheduled drama 16:51:53 Is it the end ? 16:52:54 we covered all ccs. alr then 17:27:50 Last time I harass this channel for the day with my proposal. Opened https://github.com/monero-project/meta/pull/991 18:19:35 Have you guys ever looked out your car window stared at the guy driving to get his attention then look at his wife and lick your lips 18:26:59 Apologies. I thought the meeting was tomorrow. 18:27:00 jeffro256: My hope is 1y. Seraphis was estimated ~3. You paint a picture it's much closer, which I love, but it's not one shared. Distinctly, I tried DMing you earlier. Looks like server issues prevented that :/ 18:27:01 J0J0XMR: r4v3r23: My proposal includes multiple stages of audit and review. 18:27:02 Rucknium: This proposal includes a soundness proof for divisors, audits of each component, and formal verification of the gadgets :) 18:27:27 I don't have any messages here actually discussing the content of my proposal. I'll go check the logs... 18:29:27 thanks kayaba 18:29:45 i will write a better write up about this issue today because there is a ton to unpack 18:30:22 Oh. jeffro256 did reply and the server censored them 😅 Yes, I wasn't expecting your reply in favor. I was expecting to discuss it. I'll try and put up another mode of contact later today. 18:30:23 I'm fine splitting the proposal and can do so later today 👍 18:54:45 I'm trying to sign up on monero.social for DMs and am not getting the email. Have checked spam. Does it just take a while or known issue? 18:58:50 kayabanerve: i can ask pigeons if you exist as "unregistered" and get your account manually verified (under what username?) OR sign up with a protonmail email address. thats the only provider i know who receives getmonero emails. using other providers didnt even put me in the unverified list 18:59:55 im not even seeing kayabas messages . even while being on matrix dot org, the problem is getting worse. definitely time to jump ship from matrix dot org 19:01:18 plowsof @plowsof:matrix.org: kayabanerve, gmail. I can retry with proton 19:02:36 ah ok, if you retry with proton, it'll be sent immediately, you can probably use the same username again 19:03:36 Solved ;) 19:03:41 Solved :) 19:17:55 plowsof: Any conclusion on CCS approvals/merges? 19:25:29 let the dust settle, changes (if any) be made and open for any other feedback. even the GBP proposal that was merged with seemingly 100% approval still had a "wait, why was that merged so soon?" 19:28:28 r4v3r23 whats this https://kuno.anne.media/fundraiser/7zjr/ 19:29:22 would the community save money by taking the monero_c route? 19:31:29 and will the "cuckwallet" comments constantly from you here in -community stop lol 19:32:35 previous fundraiser before scope of monero_c work was known. that amount has been taken into account for the ccs 19:32:41 they have done for some time 19:32:50 monero_c isnt suitable for us 19:33:35 you can find all the info related to that previous fundraiser on the anonero twitter it was fully transparent 19:34:26 does anonero have any dealings from j0j0xmr for full disclosure? 19:34:39 s/from/with 19:35:13 no, theyre just a user. they helped us update to v0.18.3.3 but thats about it 19:36:00 why? 19:37:02 just want it on record 19:38:34 ok 19:39:24 i was reading the logs back and am annoyed about your suggestion of rules being applied to / not applied to other proposers. have we got character references about you from sgp under your proposal? 19:39:59 Nope, no dealings. Happy to help contribute where I can. 19:40:19 come again? 19:41:42 you are not a squeaky clean / professional yourself from your public comments and such, but that is of no issue. 19:42:12 correct. i didnt know there was a personality test component to css proposals 19:42:34 but i get the job done. the work speaks for itself 19:42:55 and the fact that you have recently just lost your main dev? can you work well with others now that you are a team of 2? 19:43:19 overlooking these kinds of things and you are talking about fairness 19:43:42 cyjan was not main dev. he was brought on when other dev was unavailable for a bit 19:44:00 effectively "putting me on the spot" to "catch me" offended me 19:44:09 when its not the case at all 19:44:15 ive known the main dev for a while and theres 0 issues there 19:44:44 i wasnt trying to "catch you" i was just making sure things rules being being applied consistently 19:45:03 you can appreciate what it looks like to me being singled out for a new ccs rule 19:45:30 when a similiar proposal that was already discussed had the exact same terms that i proposed 19:47:32 <3​21bob321:monero.social> There is rules?? 19:53:08 Some basic guidelines, at least. That's why many have an issue with ofrnxmr's proposal. 19:54:32 <3​21bob321:monero.social> It would have to be rules. Guidelines are more of a suggestion 19:56:02 <3​21bob321:monero.social> Rule .1 if you have an uncomplete wip, cant atart another or funds from previous wip goes to current. Aka molly 19:57:50 <3​21bob321:monero.social> Meeting done? 19:57:57 Oh wow, Molly doesn't even have 1 milestone completed. Its been out for a while now though right? 19:58:20 dan long hrs ago, also never :) 19:58:23 yeah, also there isnt any docs for using it 19:59:36 <3​21bob321:monero.social> More like molly server being funded and then 2 yrs later sdk proposal appears 19:59:56 -long 19:59:57 <3​21bob321:monero.social> Should of took funds from that one 20:01:17 <3​21bob321:monero.social> Nioc i see no people saying bye.. rude bastards!! 20:08:21 <3​21bob321:monero.social> Also i thought there was a rule you couldn’t go more them 3 months? In proposal 20:08:36 plowsofwe good? 20:11:27 yes yes 20:11:45 <3​21bob321:monero.social> Kissy kissy 20:12:51 great 20:16:09 Tbh I rly have only one rule with my current xmr work: don’t piss off woodser 20:16:10 Considering my current hiatus while switching computers, I might be breaking that rule though 22:23:52 ... because Woodser is great and doesn't deserve to be pissed off? 22:28:32 Everyone deserves to be pissed off, if even for the learning experience. 22:33:29 FWIW, even with the commentary from plowsof and Luigi on splitting it which I'm fine with (though with the emphasis they're both critical to moving forward on the desired timeline), we're at 8 upvotes and one question ^_^ 22:33:56 I'll make the existing my work alone, and another the earmarked fund in a few h. 22:41:42 <3​21bob321:monero.social> my issue is the 1200xmr 22:42:36 <3​21bob321:monero.social> create proposal for the r&d and then create a new proposal for audit funds with quote 22:43:08 <3​21bob321:monero.social> 3k xmr is more then what was stolen 23:00:44 Hmm... 23:01:20 Wtf does "MixedCard" mean I paid with credit card I'm confused what does payment method: "MixedCard" mean?? 23:01:28 https://matrix.monero.social/_matrix/media/v1/download/techsaviours.org/FNDxUPCiGnAfSNljSUOiahTQ 23:03:43 There is no 1200 XMR Dan (Is not the man & Braxman Tomsparks Advocate) Backup: 23:04:38 This will add multiple months to the process and may prevent us from getting in with some firms. They largely schedule you from time of payment. In the weeks it causes to get payment, they may become booked. 23:06:05 <3​21bob321:monero.social> sorry 2120 23:06:23 <3​21bob321:monero.social> but have vavlues adding to 880 23:06:29 <3​21bob321:monero.social> values* 23:09:09 Also, the amount quoted for an earmarked fund? It isn't absurd. I was quoted that much alone for an audit of my multisig implementation (though from a, if not the, top firm). We legitimately will need to find quality talent at smaller groups in order to fit within any reasonable budget, and I'm hopeful that amount at least does most of the work. If it does do all, I don't pocket t 23:09:10 he funds/get a bonus. It rolls over to find efforts such as Seraphis. 23:10:00 *fund efforts 23:13:54 That one only work again opencv 23:15:16 And it's inverse color mode so I am not even sure it's as effective as white shirt with black "opencv" patterns 23:21:27 I like the pattern itself... 23:21:37 It's more of a symbol then anything else 23:21:58 I do like the pattern too, it's probably why they made a "inverse" color version 23:22:03 less effective but moar nice looking 23:23:04 I just want to make sure that umm it's all good because Idk wtf "MixedCard" means I paid with Visa/Mastercard credit card... Not MixedCard 🤔
