isthmus[m], mebbe pooled mining?

Nothing interesting is solution based on unverifiable centralized information and attack for clear-net. The final goal is to work behind anonymization network which allows cheap identity rotation, everything else is BS.

"unverifiable centralized information" ?

"github.com/rrybarczyk/asmap-rs -> data.ris.ripe.net/rrc22/2021.09" these every 5 minutes updates of IP->tag map aren't verifiable

And even they would be verifiable nothing stops someone to use many front-ends nodes in order to bypass this new magic peer selection

wfaressuissia: theoretically speaking, anyone could generate these data, nope ?

no, judging by that rust repo; otherwise they would write some crawler or generator instead of downloader from third party entity

ok, thanks :)

Playing around with some data from @neptune, visualizing the timing relationship between when outputs are created (y-axis) and then later referenced in rings (x-axis)

The vertical banding is due to the weekly variability in Monero transaction volume, and is thus not significant. (I'm working on normalization methods to remove the 'seasonality')

I was watching some old conference video and noticed you isthmus walking in front of camera :D

Haha oops!

The horizontal banding and 'ant farm' style veins at the upper left are interesting though...

Ah and you can use the dots at the top to get a sense of scale, they (conveniently) show week spacing

So interesting. It's probably services or exchanges or mining pools doing something.

This thing looks like it came out of a fax machine

with failing toner

heh yeah a dying thermal printer

Is there support for an MRL meeting this coming Wednesday at 17:00 UTC? (was mentioned earlier in the scroll back)

yes I think so

There seems to be a ton to discuss. I'm not sure why we wouldn't have a meeting, unless there is an issue with scheduling conflicts or something.

Looks like the disproportionately large number of txns with N=11 outputs continues, this is 2021 YTD data

some pool software?

why would they do 11 and not 16?

10 + change
