alright so, how do i get into blockchain development but anonymously? kinda hard to run blockchain nodes from behind 7 proxies

a lot of things in the docs start with "run local node"

i know how to run local nodes over tor/i2p... but that's still MY local node that can be traced back to me

is there no way to use a public node? like from xmrguide?

(for development stuff)

nvm those aren't testnet

ffs

how can it be traced back to you if you will only use tor/i2p

is it hard to bootstrap ones own private testnet that isn't connected to anyone else?

Inge is preparing to launch their own cryptocurrency

IngeCoinPrivate ftw

ICP. I like it.

spading_slider: ^ thanks gingeropolous

GODSEND

indeed thanks gingeropolous

also sechl: that's for the NSA to know and for us to find out the hard way

too late, you're already on the list. You posted messages in Monero IRC channels

my irc is already secure... it was just tricky to run a full damn node with the same level of security

7 proxies is so 2016

lol that was a thing since at least a decade earlier

you gents wouldn't happen to know a rust to c++ syntax translator would you?

people making monero stuff in rust smh i can't make sense of it

`rust to c++ syntax translator` => that's an asp2php converter level request, very 2005ish

Nothing wrong with rust, or c++, if it's in capable hands

elucidator: i don't need to compile this, just read it... so asp2php quality will certainly do

there seem to be plenty of options for it the other way around

All relevant Monero code is C/C++

Rust libraries are derived works

They just implement what's in C/C++ on Monero side

yes that's what i was referring to, derived works

spading_slider: yeah I see your point. some of the paradigms wouldn't "translate" very well. sech1 explained but even if the rust code does something new entirety, going through the official rust crash course quickly for "code reading" level would be enough. I'm doing the same thing recently myself, helps a lot with minimal effort

well, you know what they say about old dogs and new tricks

but if a.i. doesn't pan out i'll have to try anyway
