08:06:15 "1500 active miners on p2pool..." <- I don't think the hash rate changed much though 08:11:47 GUI wallet miners rarely bring more than 3-5 kh/s 08:11:54 and they most likely don't mine 24/7 11:26:51 It’s still really important from a culture perspective 11:29:09 We want to cultivate holistic users of Monero. Not just people who use a small part of it (sending money via centralized wallet apps like most Bitcoin use) but people who use all parts of the Monero ecosystem, sending and receiving money directly with a full node to self custody funds, mining, etc. 11:32:17 "Self custody" is such a bizarre term. We don't talk about self determination of speech, or self determination of where I am allowed to go today. 11:32:48 Though, actually, while writing this, I started to think we actually do, kinda, in some ways... 11:33:43 Companies in lawsuit happy countries checking with lawyers to see what they can say, people needing passports and visas to move further than the dominion of the warlord they were born in... 11:33:59 * moneromooo splits before ranting again ^_^ 11:36:19 Bizarre as it is, the fact that people don’t do it is sad. I mean, a light wallet is literally the same amount of effort as a garbage centralized wallet like most people in Bitcoin use 12:33:57 You are ignoring the initial setup though
