04:16:24 There is a site called Reiya and in their own words, "Reiya provides an easy way for anyone to support the Tor network by donating Monero to independent relay operators." "All relay data, including bandwidth statistics and XMR addresses, is fetched from Onionoo, an official service ran by the Tor Project." Every month on the second day, each relay will receive a percentage of the donation wallet equivalent to how much data they 04:16:24 have relayed 04:17:23 so if you got any Monero to spare, and would like to support Tor relay operators, please consider supporting this Initiative 04:17:36 Website: 04:19:10 There is also a onion link 04:36:15 last MoneroKon 2023 Planning Meeting today @ 17:00 UTC in #monero-events:monero.social 04:36:27 agenda https://github.com/monero-project/meta/issues/852 11:39:06 https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/15779 11:40:26 @boog900:monero.social do you have a matrix chat for cuprate? 12:01:39 "Website: " <- half of those relays are quetzcoatl though 12:01:52 is that a confirmed legit relay or one of those bandiwth spynode monsters? 12:02:09 * is that a confirmed legit relay or one of those high bandwith spynode monsters? 12:02:12 * is that a confirmed legit relay or one of those high bandwidth spynode monsters? 12:02:33 i suppose those might just be kyun's nodes though 12:10:45 "@boog900:monero.social do you..." <- > <@k4r4b3y:karapara.net> @boog900:monero.social do you have a matrix chat for cuprate? 12:10:45 > 12:10:45 Nope we have a Revolt server though 12:10:51 https://rvlt.gg/DZtCpfW1 12:29:06 doea 2 min blocktime compared to 10 min trade security for faster transaction?? 12:31:08 I guess original idea for 10 min was to avoid ot make hard 51% attack. 12:31:08 but since monero transaction are anonymous how can one reverse transaction if one have too much computer power 12:32:01 no one can know wallet address. transactions not like to wallet right? 12:32:53 Can USA gov use its max resources and do 51% attack on monero? 12:33:12 wont ASIC make it harder? 12:33:46 s/like/linked/ 12:34:16 "doea 2 min blocktime compared to..." <- faster initial confirmation. Withdraw is slower because of the 10 block delay time. 12:34:46 playmate7782[m]: > <@playmate7782:matrix.org> I guess original idea for 10 min was to avoid ot make hard 51% attack. 12:34:46 > 12:34:46 > but since monero transaction are anonymous how can one reverse transaction if one have too much computer power 12:34:46 double spend still possible, spender has all the information he needs 12:34:55 it has to do with less mem pool 12:35:48 ok but spender can do not some one else right? 12:36:30 3rd party with no info, can he fuck with monero blockchain just to destroy monero if he have unlimiter resources 12:36:50 playmate7782[m]: yes and no. They dont have idle CPU power and and they would have to shutdown more important things. And besides double spending they can't do much else, on bitcoin you can eg censor transactions with a 51% attack 12:38:05 playmate7782[m]: No third party can prevent us forking an earlier state. Would still be a blow though, agreed 12:38:46 oh yea. I forgot about fork 12:39:15 so some one can have temporary pleasure after spending lot of money but cannot fuck it permanently 12:39:27 "wont ASIC make it harder?" <- \>be government...

I let wallet generate seed words for my bitcoin. and add 6 words of my own which I wont forget 13:02:47 so if TAX authority gets 12 words 13:02:54 all they see is empty wallet 13:03:02 what is the consensus on the best hardware wallet these days? Trezor? An airgapped raspberry pi (lol)? 13:03:55 there is no concensus 13:04:10 playmate7782[m]: > <@playmate7782:matrix.org> 13:04:10 > I dont. I let wallet generate seed words for my bitcoin. and add 6 words of my own which I wont forget 13:04:10 yeah you can do this with monero, too 13:04:16 I only write auto generated seed words on paper 13:04:20 I think it is called a "decoy wallet" or something like that 13:04:20 not added worde 13:04:43 The way to do it is with a secret seed offset 13:04:43 oneeyedalien: > <@oneeyedalien:libera.chat> what is the consensus on the best hardware wallet these days? Trezor? An airgapped raspberry pi (lol)? 13:04:43 for me, it is feather wallet on a tailsOS persistent storage 13:05:08 offset 0 => decoy wallet 13:05:08 offset 164917491=> real wallet 13:05:17 (or any other offset) 13:05:21 I can have multiple copies of my 12 words. and then I can add first 6 President or first 6 months jan, feb, etc 13:06:11 no worries about relatives fucking with me or tax authority or robber 13:07:20 ceetee[m]: This is good because it gives you plausible deniability 13:11:00 so everyone trusted have 12 word out of 18 13:25:36 How many words does a monero seed have playmate 13:26:38 How many presidents lmao 13:28:37 Mastering monero must contain some wild information (which you claim to be reading) 13:28:53 not sure how many words 13:28:56 Was it 24¿ 13:29:01 Or 25? 13:29:06 * Was it 24? 13:29:17 XD 14:27:29 "How many words does a monero..." <- was giving an eg. on bitcoin electrum wallet I added 6 on auto generated 12 14:27:47 so was asking can I do same with Monero 14:27:52 make it 30 14:27:55 ? 14:29:00 am asking is it possible to add words to autogenerated words 14:29:31 I dont want to create all 24 seed myself 14:31:43 "How many presidents lmao" <- I am from India. we have 15 president 14:33:38 whole idea is let wallet create auto generated seed. write on paper seed words. add first 5 president at tail of seed words. so Its easy to remember its SEED WORDS + 6 PRESIDENT 14:34:15 anyone if get my seed words still dont know about added words on seed 14:35:08 I can have multiple copy of seed words at diff places without worrying about it going to wrong hands 14:36:16 s/5/6/ 14:37:09 if anyone finds my 12 words seed of bitcoin they will see its never user wallet 14:37:33 so I want to do same with monero. now this depends on wallet to wallet 14:37:43 * to wallet on bitcoin 14:38:02 s/user/used/ 14:40:16 Where is the most comprehensive source of monero's history and major improvements? I was wondering how long monero has been as functional as it is now--then I remembered that's mostly opinion based on a bunch of factors like convenience, speed, etc 14:40:18 my past experience with monero was With FREE WALLET. and I sold my moneroj in 2017 itself as was on conclusion that monero was shitcoin. 14:40:58 now I want to go all in monero. my moneroj are still on centralised exchange 14:41:16 will withrraw soon 14:41:24 doitnow 14:41:26 have bitcoin on self custody 14:41:40 Seed offset (cant find the pretty article by anhdres atm) https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/zuj6wq/the_most_underrated_feature_of_monero_wallets_in/ 14:43:20 Do you guys know any good SIP provider paid with Monero? 14:43:56 plowsof11: https://link.medium.com/ooICMpTSHAb 14:48:33 Side-trips https://resilience365.com/monero-timeline-notes/ has some info 15:12:17 delicious 15:13:01 I swear on everything, monero community is the most helpful/resourceful thing I've ever been apart of 15:13:35 it's the best place on the internet really 15:13:43 and i've been on the internet for a pretty long time 15:14:32 Hey naphtha, check this out. https://github.com/monerica-project/monerica/pull/70 15:14:56 Kyun is on there too. 15:15:44 Side-trips[m]: Monero is king. 15:15:59 May we never degenerate like the btc-ers 15:20:03 "https://link.medium.com/..." <- ublock complains about the first because of possible tracking. this is better: https://anhdres.medium.com/416ff5198b2e 15:20:47 very good explanation though 15:30:36 Yeah I was on mobile and didn't checked 15:34:32 anhdres i hope tom doesnt hear about this 15:39:28 Join us folks!

You can have a large number of inputs to a Monero transaction. Each input has its own ring. The max number of outputs is 16 20:19:43 Read Zero to Monero 2.0 if Mastering Monero isn't detailed enough 20:20:29 A larger number of inputs and outputs increases the transaction size. 20:20:53 Rucknium[m]: after completing this will surely check it 20:23:42 and one thing boggles me. bitcoin has 1 mb blocksize.... (full message at ) 20:28:07 so dynamics blocksize of monero still smaller than bitcoin????? 20:28:07 and this means eventually monero might have scalling problem?? whats happens if monero transaction organically jumps 1000X or 10000X in next 5 years. 20:28:07 how much blocksize will be needed if monero traffic jumps 1000X 20:30:23 maintaining median size of last 100 blocks and with rapid growth, what happens of median blocksize is above threshhold 20:31:06 how will miners get paid? will developers change code and increase limit of block size? 20:35:02 before reading I thought monero might have blocksize same as bcash or more. I thought dynamic blocksize might be touching 100mb plus during high traffic 20:35:59 so when people think dynamic, people assume it can go in GB and dont bother to understand 20:36:32 s/think/read/ 20:41:02 eventually people will ask about scaling and compare it VISA. can I get links about how Monero plan to solve 20:47:26 Monero can already outpace VISA right now AFAIK. 20:47:26 Only issue could be the storage size of the blockchain buy, hey, 50TB drives are in the oven. 20:48:16 s/buy/but/ 20:50:09 RavFX[m]: > <@gfdshygti53:monero.social> Monero can already outpace VISA right now AFAIK. 20:50:09 > Only issue could be the storage size of the blockchain but, hey, 50TB drives are in the oven. 20:50:09 hmmm 20:50:24 but that can decrease no of full nodes 20:50:37 that's why no one touch Bcash 20:51:05 I finally understood Btc was worst than net banking when it comes to peer to peer 20:51:07 playmate7782[m]: by the time the 50TB will be on the market, you could get 20tb for very cheap I'm sure. 20:51:27 RavFX[m]: yes u got the point 20:51:31 You can get 8TB drive for like 100$-ish 20:51:42 hopefully monero goes organically 20:51:58 but transactions can explode 20:55:12 s/goes/grow/ 20:56:13 At least there is option. 20:56:13 Right now cheap storage like 1TB drive you can find literally everywhere. 22:22:16 "Join us folks!
