00:21:19 is this thing on 00:21:23 yep ok 00:25:57 Lyza: yes 04:01:55 yes it is my N- 04:01:58 -eighbor 04:02:03 what do you think i was gonna say 08:44:35 lmao, I thought they were for real. 10:41:44 Is it possible to mine monero without downloading the blockchain? 10:42:10 Yes, you can use a remote node directly or a remote pool like p2pool. or simply minexmr2.com 10:43:07 No one is mining solo with a remonte node tho. The probability that you get a reward is so small than the latency from using a remote node can cost you your chance 10:44:15 The best way to mine is to use p2pool or p2pool mini (for low hashrates), but if you don't wanna install it you can simply use minexmr2.com. It act as a centralized pool but is connected to p2pool behind 10:45:02 oh looks like minexmr2 is down 10:49:06 Monero gui can't mine p2pool with a remote node, you need gupax for this 10:51:35 Monero.gui can with custom p2pool args iirc but ye gupax is better for that 10:53:48 Thanks for clarifying! I'll take a look at p2pool and setup all the stuff. Though, I have one more question: what difference there is between the built-in miner in `monero-wallet-cli` and a dedicated mining software such as XMRig? 10:54:00 ah alright my bad 10:54:16 xmrig is more performant 10:54:23 plowsof is right, use gupax 10:55:16 (Its dev is working on my project so I've the obligation to be biased here + gupax is really good) 10:56:12 Thanks for explaining, have a great day! 11:09:57 Stay the hell away from minexmr2 btw, shady admin has spammed it everywhere and made up a lot of bs to promote their pool like it's the second coming of Satoshi 11:10:17 (Plus the affinity scam with the old minexmr) 11:13:49 "Stay the hell away from minexmr2 btw, shady admin has spammed it everywhere and made up a lot of bs to promote their pool like it's the second coming of Satoshi" sounds personal 11:15:54 Wen soloptxmr, sir partner of scammer? your reasoning for the pool being a scam sounds like youre just a hater. I dont see scamming (from them). Cant say the sane abt other ppl 11:16:51 Is one not allowed to advertise their pool? Or should they raise money and never release it? 11:28:39 Mixed reviews https://www.reddit.com/r/MoneroMining/comments/1230qim/minexmr2com_opinions/ 11:29:28 "after the community explained me, I've fixed the errors in site's text" the errors where wild / marketing bs 11:29:47 https://nitter.tux.pizza/peacemongerZ/status/1754955183602253958#m 11:30:52 f nitter rate limited 11:31:35 https://nitter.ktachibana.party/peacemongerZ/status/1754955183602253958#m 11:32:37 https://nitter.lanterne-rouge.info/peacemongerZ/status/1754955183602253958#m 11:38:45 leave it to ofrn to jump in to defend people without even having a clue of the context :) 11:40:09 And solopt is in the works, making slow progress.

"We're based on p2pool, so we can't 51% attack the network, therefore everyone should mine on our pool!" 11:43:24 Then downvoting to death any comments on reddit that debunked their bs 11:44:13 "We're open source, therefore cannot steal from you!" 11:44:39 It took several, repeated, public attempts from sech, myself, and a couple of others, to finally get them to remove their bullshit 11:45:13 And they still advertise frequently on reddit with posts and comments pushing newbies who don't know any better to join their pool 11:46:20 And they wanted to raise community funding to run their private pool, on top of their 1% fee 11:47:47 Next time do at least 30 seconds of research before jumping in when nobody asked 11:50:05 Stfu 11:50:05 https://redditcom/r/Monero/comments/y7w0hy/how_to_make_decentralized_p2pool_a_top_1_mining/itg2uk4/ 11:50:10 https://reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/y7w0hy/how\_to\_make\_decentralized\_p2pool\_a\_top\_1\_mining/itg2uk4/ 11:50:29 https://reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/y7w0hy/how_to_make_decentralized_p2pool_a_top_1_mining/it7567u/ 11:50:30 1% how about 80% 11:50:34 https://reddit.com/r/MoneroMining/comments/yehmdy/danger_from_hashvaultpro_and_how_is_decentralized/iu20mbe/ 11:50:52 "Stfu" Ah yes, you got me there! 11:50:56 Since when have mining pools been ethical 11:51:05 And since when have you 11:51:29 "how about 80%" idk, ask the scammer guy.
