  <that-guy123:fedora.im> I was looking at the documentation for the wallet3 upgrade, and the ZKP upgrade. Which would be better to look at further first?

  <that-guy123:fedora.im> Btw i think moving away from github is smart especially if they are banning even one member

  <ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> @that-guy123:fedora.im: by wallet3 and ZKP, maybe you mean CARROT and fcmp++?
• 02:20
  br-m
  <jpk68:matrix.org> He might be thinking of the proposed wallet3 rewrite that's mentioned on the seraphis-migration page (which doesn't actually exist)
• 02:20

  <ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> seraphis is also not being done atm

  <that-guy123:fedora.im> Oops

  <that-guy123:fedora.im> What would u say the time frames are expected to be and should i research the fcmp++

  <ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> They are both near completion and in audit/testing phases
• 03:49
  br-m
  <ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> Im not sure what your goal is? are you looking to help squash bugs? Or just want to research the underlying protocols

  <that-guy123:fedora.im> Ok, who came up with the merkle roots verification scheme? Seems revolutionary...

  "The concept of a hash tree is named after Ralph Merkle, who patented it in 1979."
• 15:40
  br-m
  <jpk68:matrix.org> I think he means for FCMP++

  <that-guy123:fedora.im> Thats the puzzle not the incorporation into proofs

  <that-guy123:fedora.im> So who put the merkle tree into xmr and was it the first coin to do so? Im just very interested crypto

  <jpk68:matrix.org> Based on these comments, it looks like these functions aren't meant to be permanent: github.com/monero-project/monero/bl…/src/common/dns_utils.cpp#L159-L160

  <jpk68:matrix.org> If this is still the case, would it be fine to just use Boost functions for the conversion
