This is bad, can’t the wallet itself select decoys while scanning blockchain and save it in a db locally ? Which can be used later on while sending payment; can also request decoys from remote node but use a mix of locally sorted decoys and ones sent from remote node.

nikg83[m]: use your own node

anyway, I think the node sends a list large list of decoys and the clients ends up selecting which ones it chooses, the reddit link is outdated

selsta: Node will know same ip broadcasting a tx which has unknown (real) decoys

obviously the node will know the ip

selsta: Yah one day when cake supports tor nodes, as my node is behind nat

that's why you should either use your own node, or use a trusted node

selsta: I mean real spent on that tx

otherwise they can try to spy on you in various ways

I don't know whaat you mean with "broadcasting a tx which has unknown (real) decoys"; but that discussion is better for #monero

Ok

Thanks for the info. I need to use onion remote nodes because I can't host my own node for multiple reasons. I already guessed remote nodes could see txid and possibly decoys, just wanted to know for sure.

But can the remote node know which of the ring members are decoys and which are the real spends, or does the wallet query both types of ring members in the same way?

I heard some months ago, if the remote node says TX failed, don't try to resend it immediately because it could find out the real spend. IDK if this is still up-to-date.

nikg83[m]: That has been patched as far as I know

hi, is this the right place to ask questions about swap issues?

#monero-swap:monero.social is the right place, I think

thx

can someone review 8055 / 8056? it's a version bump for hidapi, we sometimes have strange issues with ledger not connecting on some systems, updating hidapi might help here

yo

How come the device verification for matrix has a shield without a border for the desktop app and a shield with a white border for the mobile app??? I clicked the shields were not the same the first time lmao and it said verification cancelled.

Does anyone know how to disable that entire process and just verify all logins or make it use a 2FA app instead?

But anyways

I had some feedback for the UX when using the RPC wallet

the change is 1 or a couple LOC

just a log message on the default log level that would let users of the wallet-rpc know that the wallet needs to be synced and is being synced rather than making us do hours of debugging

would've saved me 5+ hours and will definitely save other developers a lot of time!

Hey guys :) I want to include official wallet code, namely blockchain scanning and transaction generation. does anyone have any experience with where to "cut" the codebase, or if it's even feasible?

for example "simplewallet.cpp", is that relatively self contained? it looks quite complete.
