<torir:matrix.org> @puff1k:matrix.org: In the cryptocurrency space, legal actions have in many cases failed to accomplish much. In this particular case, I think it would be hard to show actual harm done in a courtroom (in the legal sense of "harm"), even though yes, in some sense, actual harm has occurred. This is the wild west where "code is law".

<torir:matrix.org> To successfully sue Qubic (or the people involved in Qubic), you would probably have to provide evidence that you actually lost money due to the re-org or the other disruption that they have caused. And it would have to be an amount sufficient to even warrant the cost of a lawsuit.

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> I tried this briefly, but it wants to enforce the hardcoded checkpoints > <@rucknium> 2. If you put a checkpoints.json file into the directory with the blockchain, it will putllthat every time it checks DNS records. (I have not tested this yet, but I will soon) :github.com/monero-project/monero/bl…a/src/checkpoints/checkpoints.h#L40

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> Barks about setting checkpoints higher than the hardcoded ones

<torir:matrix.org> That being said, it seems clear that CFB is wary of potential legal consequences, so an actual legal threat might dissuade him.

<torir:matrix.org> That may be the reason why CFB is holding off on doing large reorgs for now.

<torir:matrix.org> He got burned by not understanding how very important the ten block lock is in Monero.

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> This is research lounge, not 1800-crime-stoppers

<torir:matrix.org> #monero:monero.social Right, discussion can continue here.

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> i personally don't care to hear about non-technical methods of combating qubic

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> Yeah, #monero is fine

<privacyx> Its appears qubic not selfish mining in the last few or so hours am i reading that right?

<rucknium> I think the log message is misleading. It triggers the log message for any checkpoint, including DNS, hardcoded, or json. > <@ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> I tried this briefly, but it wants to enforce the hardcoded checkpoints

<rucknium> You just need to supply a height to the json file that is higher than the height of the highest checkpoint the node knows about.

<barthman132:matrix.org> He lives in Belarus. Do people even know what crypto even is over there? I don’t really think that’s why he stopped. I doubt the Belarus government even cares > <@torir:matrix.org> That being said, it seems clear that CFB is wary of potential legal consequences, so an actual legal threat might dissuade him.

It was correct since today @privacyx:monero.social as I have said so a couple of times

Their blocks don't contain withheld transactions, but also don't contain much of other transactions

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> @barthman132:matrix.org: Do you know that for a fact?

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> I live in belarus too

<barthman132:matrix.org> @ofrnxmr:xmr.mx: Yes I saw a couple articles years ago saying he lives in Minsk. “Sergey Ivancheglo lives in Minsk, Belarus. He holds a Bachelor of Science with specialization in electronics and artificial intelligence.” He resigned from IOTA and bounced around a couple of projects before qubic. medium.com/@Dav [... too long, see mrelay.p2pool.observer/e/zO_Oz7UKRmdCeUZv ]

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> Do you believe everything you read on the internet

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> Did you know that luigi1111's real name is luigi:

<barthman132:matrix.org> @ofrnxmr:xmr.mx: I mean he his a public figure. His story does seem pretty typical for many tech guys out there.

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> he's about as public as my onlyfans

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> I persobally doubt that is his real name, location, education, and even his profile pic

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> have you ever seen a video of him? I havent looked

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> Fluffypony - he is who he says he is.

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> vitalik - another public figure.

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> Cfb? My ass

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> Bros an actor

<barthman132:matrix.org> m.youtube.com/watch?v=n9zlLh2YMPA

<barthman132:matrix.org> Here is a interview with him.

<barthman132:matrix.org> He has done interviews in both English and in Russian.

<barthman132:matrix.org> Skip about a minute into the video to hear speak

<privacyx> DataHoarder: Thanks DH As im different time zone to majority of you guys I would of missed it I try my best to catch up on what is discussed My today is midday Tuesday lol anyway appreciate the response

^ as a point to "but what about history in IRC" see no one reads backlog even when they have it :)

You can also see that there aren't that many withheld txs (or none) which is also an indication of when they turn selfish mining, but not always

<privacyx> No I read them and i appreciate the information you provide its my error for how missed it as usually i jump to unread go through it but something went wrong and your actually comments about it was marked as read again appreciate the response

note I've added a record for 6 of the testpoints.moneropulse.* domains

qubic seems to have reverted their transaction code and are including up to 20 transactions per each of their blocks

6/7 binaryFate?
