<d​ufebo98:monero.social> I use the feather wallet to finish a cold-and-watch only transaction. one of the steps is to import key images. My question is whether it is risky to expose key images to a remote node?

<e​ndor00:matrix.org> Why would any node see your key images? You export them from the cold wallet and import them directly into the view-only hot wallet. Or does the hot wallet ask the node if the imported images have been spent anywhere? (I don't remember this step, someone cross-check me please)

<d​ufebo98:monero.social> Thank you.

<d​ufebo98:monero.social> after i imported the key images into the view-only wallet, There was a pop-up remaindering that exposing keys images to an untrusted node would harm your privacy or something like that

<d​ufebo98:monero.social> And asked me would you want to continue or not.

<d​ufebo98:monero.social> So i am confused whether it is risky to import the key images into the view only wallet

<e​ndor00:matrix.org> Ok, then the wallet might indeed contact a node to ask if your images are spent or not

<e​ndor00:matrix.org> In that case, a malicious node could keep a log of that request and make an association between your key images and your ip address (unless you're going over i2p/tor), and between your key images - i.e. they know that all those images, and all past and future transactions where they might show up, belong to the same person/entity (though they would not know who you are or who you'<clipped message>

<e​ndor00:matrix.org> re transacting with from on-chain data alone)

<e​ndor00:matrix.org> Also, most public nodes don't have tls set up, in which case your isp or anyone in the middle could intercept your communication with the remote node

<e​ndor00:matrix.org> But if you have a node ran by someone you trust, over a secure connection, then it should be fine

<e​edera> Hey what is the best web miner for monero currently? I want to try webmining on my xbox

web mining Monero is so inefficient it's not practical reddit.com/r/MoneroMining/comments/…ve_never_seen_an_xbox_mining_crypto

xmrig.com/benchmark?cpu=Microsoft+Xbox+One+CPU sorry

24 hashes sick

<e​edera> Lol even a rasperry pi is better😁

what if you root the xbox, install linux, and xmrig?

can we get it to 30?

what can we do with redstone?

<e​edera> I think its possible but not worth it

<e​edera> Its better to buy a few old all in one desktop PCs and mine on them

<s​gp_:monero.social> For discussion: OpenAlias v2 specification openalias/openalias-spec #1

<s​gp_:monero.social> Join us in #openalias:matrix.org (#openalias for Libera)

<b​asses:matrix.org> Someone needs to update the website openalias.org

<b​asses:matrix.org> google+ acc (dead) and copyright date

<b​asses:matrix.org> mentions monero forum which is dead too...

<s​huroii:matrix.org> how's openalias any better than opennic?

<s​gp_:monero.social> OpenNIC appears to be a DNS network. OpenAlias isn't a DNS network; it's a spec for how to use DNS for address resolution

<s​huroii:matrix.org> ah so they're different things outright

<s​huroii:matrix.org> fair enough

<s​gp_:monero.social> Yup

[13:30] <snex> s​huroii - looking now. redis-client gem should absolutely be included as a dependency of sidekiq.. do you have an output log you can show me?

<s​gp_:monero.social> You could likely do OpenAlias over OpenNIC

<s​huroii:matrix.org> I already tossed the directory, sorry

<s​huroii:matrix.org> I just used your latest docker.io container in my yaml

<s​huroii:matrix.org> I just used your latest docker.io container

ok i was able to reproduce.. im guessing some gem update added a hidden dependency. thx for notifying

<s​huroii:matrix.org> np

note to self, dont assume that just because github shows green image build that it actually works :(

<s​huroii:matrix.org> yeah I don't trust it until I've seen it work on my machine either xd

<b​asses:matrix.org> >ChangeNow and FixedFloat disable XMR pairs availability when they detect Tor exit IP addresses. They are members of CryptoSafe Alliance where all its members constantly provide big lists of XMR hashes and addresses (including customer/swap data) to each other in order to help LE investigations and funds flow tracking.

<b​asses:matrix.org> For instance, here are some other CryptoSafe Alliance members: Binance, Kraken, KuCoin, Chainalysis, Elliptic, SlowMist, AMLBot and some delegated FBI agents.

i for one have lost all trust in Chainalysis having heard that theyre in the CryptoSafe Alliance

@shuroii the current image should work now in case you are interested

<s​huroii:matrix.org> I'll check it out

<s​huroii:matrix.org> Looking forward to what Siren Stnby are cooking up with my yamls

<1​23bob123:matrix.org> Sounds kinky
