Short comment about the latest "drama" about OVKs... 18:42:35

I made an couple of comments here some days ago about this topic before noticing the mud fight that was already happening in Reddit. So without realising I was participating in the circus... 18:42:35

And now I can read the various mendacious lines of argumentation and clear misdirections going around even today. [... more lines follow, see https://mrelay.p2pool.observer/e/xYCM0uAKMU9mOXFB ] 20:25:33 and even if it's not a lie it takes way too much effort to untie things together 20:38:38 Next MRL meeting is adding Carrot to the discussed items and also OVK. If you want to observe these AFAIK it'd be Wednesday at 17:00 UTC @ #monero-research-lab and on https://libera.monerologs.net/monero-research-lab (it's a research focused channel, so direct questions or other items are better left for lounge or general monero channels) 20:40:56 those visible in that webchat are all actual libera chans? 20:45:36 yes. Though not all of them 20:46:06 Only selected chats are logged via that, others are available on Matrix (and their history) or via third party logs
