<p​lowsof:matrix.org> which address are the funds going to sir?

<j​berman:monero.social> will pm (and will handle allocating to reviewers and hyc as promised in the PR)

<d​oedl...:zano.org> what an innocent question. Your not supposed to even ask!

A new batch of phishing scams reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/1i2a5c…ous_cryptoscammer_is_phishing_users

Xmrguide dot org returns under a new owner

Correction: dot Info is the phishing clone*

<o​hchase:envs.net> I always am curious how successful these phishing scams are, I had linked in the reddit a supply chain attack on ultralytics and it was kinda funny because the comments were almost trolling that the whole thing made them like $40 max lol

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Youd be surprised how many Normie's fall for them

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> feather-wallet.org was elaborate. Good looking website, served legit binaries

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> All it was waiting for was a chance to switch the binaries out after gaining enough SEO

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> electrum website too

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Xmrguide is another "trusted" domain. Like haveno.com too. Haveno.com literally has fake install guides on it (like how to install a non-existent flatpak)

<o​hchase:envs.net> I guess you never know on the other side what the scammers are dealing with in their lives, but stealing those funds could literally be destroying peoples lives and putting them in harms way.

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Scammer are scum

<d​oedl...:zano.org> I'd argue that changing rewards over time for blockproducers (including premine) is a suboptimal strategy for the distribution of power. Grin is nice in this regard. We dont have exact numbers for the dist. of xmr, but we can estimate. Anyone calculated the GI for btc or eth? Lets call it benevolent oligarchy.

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> need to remember that even if you dont ever change the reward, that the supply favors early adopters

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> A static reward is a much smaller % of the supply at the end vs at the beginning

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> You could argue that a _growing_ reward is more fair

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Lets say it was always 1% of supply, then the reward would constantly grow larger

<s​agewilder:unredacted.org> That's understandable. Personally, I would have enjoyed a competitive process with other participants. I'll make up my mind about the CCS.

<s​agewilder:unredacted.org> I can learn to respect taboos.

<j​effro256:monero.social> Why is the Monero twitter posting yet another Cake ad? xcancel.com/monero/status/1879616566469554459#m

<j​effro256:monero.social> Can we remove the hyperlink from the official website to this twitter account? I think it's been well established that the @monero account isn't impartial

<j​effro256:monero.social> I like Cake Wallet and all but an "official" Monero account shouldn't be glazing Cake this hard

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> ofrnxmr: YOU GOT A MONERO WEBSITE JOB RELATED TO DRAMA

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Kkkkkkk

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Gimme 5 min

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> Monerobull gotta love this one

<j​effro256:monero.social> I gotta say though, the @monero account is 1000x better than the @bitcoin account, which is just price numbers and AI slop

<j​effro256:monero.social> Not exaggerating

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> As a twitter user, he is not exaggerating

<m​alori:xavi.lu> imagine being a twitter user

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> I wanted bluesky to succeed. really

<m​alori:xavi.lu> I mean personally im on a small japanese one with a niche as topic

<m​alori:xavi.lu> I cant really recommend you one in particular

<m​alori:xavi.lu> I saw quite a few related around IT, dunno if theres any good related to crypto?

<m​alori:xavi.lu> I cant really recommend you one in particular

<m​alori:xavi.lu> I saw quite a few related around IT that seems good, dunno if theres any good related to crypto?

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> np i'll retry soon and see how it goes, with enough chance all the negativity just got vacuumed into bluesky

irc is my social media, imagine all the I am missing lolol

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> to get started*. Looking thru old prs bcuz iirc there was a pr for hangouts change. Not sure if merged already (changed twit to x)

<m​alori:xavi.lu> but it dosent really matter whyifch hw you chose tbh, as it'll just impact your local feed 🤷‍♀️

<m​alori:xavi.lu> o h

<m​alori:xavi.lu> i see what you are talking about

<m​alori:xavi.lu> nah its still present on some server/ circle of servers

<m​alori:xavi.lu> but niche instance arent impacted

<m​alori:xavi.lu> advantage of being on a jpn Instance is that they dont give a fuck

<m​alori:xavi.lu> so no stupid defederation

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> based

<r​ucknium:monero.social> sagewilder: You were at the MRL meeting so surely you saw that j.berman was going to come back with a competition proposal next meeting in one week.

also was stated yesterday in this channel

<s​agewilder:unredacted.org> Rucknium: I actually read his message, but I misinterpreted it. Upon re-reading it, I see that he did indeed reference the contest. I'm happy to have been mistaken.

so has @monero posted about Monerokon's CfP yet?

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> whats CfP

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> Call for Presentation

<d​oedl...:zano.org> I'd argue that changing rewards over time for blockproducers (including premine) is a suboptimal strategy for the distribution of power. Grin is nice in this regard.
