<ixr3:matrix.org> Thank you @jberman:monero.social @jeffro256:monero.social @sgp_:monero.social > <@jberman> Update: we've decided on Quarkslab (Vendor 4) for Phase 1 of the FCMP++ integration audit

<ixr3:matrix.org> Is Vendor 5 doing the audit for free? What they want in exchange? Public press coordination?

<sgp_> there's no agreement (at least that I'm aware of) with vendor 5

<sgp_> the code is public and anyone can look at it

<kiersten5821:matrix.org> it's not about comparison but privacy and security during transmission, the address has a 48-bit checksum anyway doesn't it? > <@jeffro256> Recipient IDs allow sending the full arbitrary long address over an insecure channel, and confirming it with ~26 characters of typing

-----BEGIN MONERO ADDRESS BLOCK-----

the prefix contains a 120-bit checksum of the address contents
