08:17:01 <m-relay> <r​4v3r23:monero.social> ok so its not as simple as "start scanning from block XXX"
08:18:34 <m-relay> <r​4v3r23:monero.social> but sometimes i see it starts a the beginning of the chain eg "3000000 blocks remaining", especially on onion nodes, and takes some time before it hits the zone of the restore heigh block, then slows down significantly and actually starts scanning blocks
08:32:26 <m-relay> <o​frnxmr:monero.social> Isnt that what valldrac just said
08:34:14 <m-relay> <o​frnxmr:monero.social> >the wallet first does a fast refresh, fetching only the block hashes from the most recent checkpoint
08:34:15 <m-relay> <o​frnxmr:monero.social> > (or genesis if the restore height is less than the checkpoint), 
08:34:15 <m-relay> <o​frnxmr:monero.social> >and it keeps doing that until it gets to the restore height. 
08:34:16 <m-relay> <o​frnxmr:monero.social> >Then, it fetches entire blocks and starts scanning for txs as usual
10:31:05 <m-relay> <r​4v3r23:monero.social> theres no reason for genesis if a restore height was used
23:07:56 <xmr_noob_69> I think I got gaslit by chat gpt. Does Monero have any sort of scripting like Solidity?
23:08:06 <xmr_noob_69> (i'm new btw hi guys)
23:13:35 <xmr_noob_69> lol if i knew it ratted out my ip i would've used a vpn
23:13:46 <xmr_noob_69> now i'm gonna get hacked ;-; enjoy my 0.01 xmr i guess
23:18:39 <moneromoooo> xmr_noob_69: monero does not have scripting.
23:22:36 <xmr_noob_69> @moneromoo I could swear MentalOutlaw has a video talking about NFTs in monero called "ordinals"
23:22:43 <xmr_noob_69> how did they do that without scripting?
23:23:07 <xmr_noob_69> @moneromoooo oops forgot an o
