01:34:35 <321bob321> They want a kickback for signing people up 01:41:38 this is definitely the most insane very clear demand 13:13:23 > <@4rkal> I’m not sure i get the question. Yes some exchanges allow you to add an additional partner fee 13:13:23 Sorry, I know there is a lot of aggregators and they all kinda say there is no additional fee when using them but I then became curious if that's absolutely true because of some of the partner exchanges having variable fee specifications and how that interacts with the margins. I see some aggregators provide a protection mecha [... too long, see https://mrelay.p2pool.observer/e/p_WPq9QKVkxGZkgt ] 14:22:15 Meeting in 1hr38 mins https://github.com/monero-project/meta/issues/1314 14:58:50 <4rkal> @ohchase:envs.net: We don’t add any additional fees to our users. Also the insurance guarantee in our case is provided by the exchanges themselves but held by us. 15:25:45 Why does the monero podcast start at the same time as the meeting ? 😭 15:37:25 Will likely finish before the price report begins 15:45:26 @lm:matrix.baermail.fr: The podcast is like 5hrs long 15:46:11 to not overlap, we'd have to do the meeting at 5am utc or 11pm utc 15:59:38 meeting time https://github.com/monero-project/meta/issues/1314 16:00:06 πŸ‘‹ 16:00:15 πŸ‘‹ 16:00:19 Hello. 16:00:20 greetings ! 16:00:36 πŸ‘‹ 16:00:49 Ruckniums network scan tool : https://moneronet.info/ πŸ‘€ boog900 shared in the last MRL meeting an update to the ban list @ https://github.com/Boog900/monero-ban-list/pull/10 meeting logs: https://github.com/monero-project/meta/issues/1310 16:01:27 how is site coming along redsh4de? πŸ‘‹ 16:01:37 https://beta.monerodevs.org/ 16:02:04 paragraphs incoming from me 16:03:00 Soo, over the past 2 weeks, worked on adding three new pages to the website, some docs about how to add/modify/extend relevant content and use some utilities i made, and general improvements in various areas of the codebase - with a focus on making CSS more compact, weighing out a potential migration for SCSS due to it's support for nesting and general features that improve maintainability 16:03:06 First, what's new since the last update 16:03:57 1. "What is Monero?" page at https://beta.monerodevs.org/get-started/what-is-monero/ 16:03:57 The design is meant to follow a sectioned pitch deck style that tells a kind of a story (problem -> solution -> use cases), with a call to action section leading the user to either download a wallet or purchase Monero. 16:03:57 Thought it also fitting to add a Learn More section with Dr. Daniel Kim's presentation about Monero (with subtitle options), as i think it really covers most questions people might have about what Monero is and why it matters. As always, all text on the current page can be considered a placeholder and is only for presentation purposes 16:04:10 https://mrelay.p2pool.observer/m/matrix.org/kseRprcJsuNGyedaoGcbYydP.png (image.png) 16:05:09 2. Exchanges page with eyecandy! https://beta.monerodevs.org/get-started/exchanges/ 16:05:09 Added a responsive exchanges page, with the options organized as such: Decentralized Exchanges, Aggregators, and CEXes - effectively sorted in a descending order by which ones are the most optimal for privacy. 16:05:09 To avoid overwhelming users, made a filter sidebar/drawer to help newcomers quickly highlight the options that fit their situation - hopefully solving the common complaint that its difficult to buy Monero, which stems more from a bad presentation and discoverability of options rather than a lack of them[... more lines follow, see https://mrelay.p2pool.observer/e/joOFsNQKMWd6ajR3 ] 16:05:19 Desktop view: 16:05:24 https://mrelay.p2pool.observer/m/matrix.org/MUwFDEbGPOkakiNpYJoOBdUR.png (image.png) 16:05:26 Mobile view: 16:05:30 https://mrelay.p2pool.observer/m/matrix.org/AHrYnLgavROuzCKSRwwFQwNq.png (image.png) 16:06:00 3.
