Is building statically on MSYS2 supported?

I tried `make release-static-win64` but it failed.

<n​ot_thankful_for_today:matrix.org> @selsta i have a question

<n​ot_thankful_for_today:matrix.org> selsta are u here ? i have a question

yes, can you read this or is matrix still broken?

<p​lowsof:matrix.org> not_thankful_for_today matrix dot org (your home server) does not see monero dot social messages until after a huge delay. create an account on another home server .e.g. monero dot social and you can see irc messages (from the m-relay social bot). until then. read @ libera.monerologs.net/monero-gui/20240510 and type here as normal

<n​ot_thankful_for_today:matrix.org> @Selsta yes matrix is broken and we can't see your messages there, but I can now see your message on liberachat.

<n​ot_thankful_for_today:matrix.org> I have a very serious question regarding the monero GUI and outputs that im really confused about

>Let's say I have 2 outputs of 0.4 XMR in my wallet, for a total balance of 0.8 XMR, and I attempt to make a payment for 0.41 XMR. Will my input take 2 ring signatures out of the 16 ring signatures ?

each output will have 15 decoys

I meant each input will have 15 decoys

and the change will create a new output

you can look it up on xmrchain.net when you look at a transaction

<n​ot_thankful_for_today:matrix.org> @selsta

<n​ot_thankful_for_today:matrix.org> So basically, one of the main attacks on Monero that people keep talking about is that if I send you an output, and you keep depositing the exact same output I sent you to an exchange that I have access to, I can track the output easily since it'll keep being used in ring signatures when deposited in the exchange.

<n​ot_thankful_for_today:matrix.org> However, what's never mentioned is what happens when instead of depositing the entire output, you deposit the output I sent you PLUS some more XMR that you had from another output in your wallet. So I send you 1 XMR, and you make a deposit on the exchange using a 10 XMR output + the 1 XMR output, for a total of 11 . What then ? What exactly does the Monero GUI do ? Will it make a <clipped messa

<n​ot_thankful_for_today:matrix.org> brand new input for the transaction, therefore it won't be recognized as the old output when they look at the ring signers on the exchange?

there is a breaking monero series on YouTube, you should take a look at it, it's really in depth

I have a hard time following what you are writing, maybe someone else can help

<n​ot_thankful_for_today:matrix.org> @selsta Yes selsta, Im listening to it, but I'm left confused about this question still

<n​ot_thankful_for_today:matrix.org> what are you confused about?
