<c​t:xmr.mx> prancing389 what kind of copypasta is this?

<r​ecanman:kernal.eu> Looks like LLM-generated stuff to me

<p​rancing389:matrix.org> chatgpt

<c​t:xmr.mx> yeah, same. Question is who created it?

<p​rancing389:matrix.org> I fed it a short statement and it wrote the article from that short statement

<p​rancing389:matrix.org> good for marketing, waking up the public to the need for privacy

<c​t:xmr.mx> people associate ai written stuff not exactly as trusted sources, which may be counterproductive for marketing

<r​ecanman:kernal.eu> Agreed

<c​t:xmr.mx> Also prancing389 pls dont paste the same post in every room

<o​rban.1:matrix.org> Is monero network congested ?

<p​rivacyx:monero.social> No they shouldnt be transcations are in the low 30k range

<n​ihilist:m.datura.network> good month for monero

Heh, I noticed my savings increasing all of a sudden)

TFW Monero is more stable than your actual currency

<h​ardhatter:monero.social> Interesting how the trend is persisting when the nasdaq and Btc are both in a slight decline these past 2 week

<n​ihilist:m.datura.network> mark my words, the missing pieces required to finally fully decentralize finances are coming together, we're getting there

we need more people to use cash irl

It does give me peace of mind that a ton of salaries are still paid in cash, and that elderly people keep cash usage alive. But it is worrying that I see a few people my age who don't carry cash at all.

At least I am doing my part lol

<h​ardhatter:monero.social> I think a majority of the work is almost done in terms of protocol for simply having anonymous decentralized currency that can feasibly be used. But in terms of long term scalability we might need to rethink the use blockchains altogether.

ye indeed

Right now crypto fills the niche of "the thing that can exist parallel to the main financial system", but we need more!

<n​ihilist:m.datura.network> all it needs, is to be made as easy to GET (haveno), and to use (UX + android apps) as possible, and with enough marketing to be made a normal thing to do for cavemen

<a​leenor:matrix.org> i've recently discovered stack wallet, they support monero. and the UI is the best I've seen on mobile. fyi

<h​ardhatter:monero.social> Most of the private research I’ve done in relevant mathematics to cryptocurrencies was not research directly intended to be applied cryptocurrencies. But it might actually help if I take a stab at it. The topics in math relevant here I’ve heavily applied for larger scale systems. Only problem is my IP. I almost never share anything. I already have something I know I could use <clipped message>

<h​ardhatter:monero.social> to make blockchains themselves scale immensely better in terms of storage capacity but I’m not sharing that anytime soon.

Also it would be very helpful to make them usable in the physical world without a smartphone somehow. I remember touching this, but don't remember whether there are standalone electronic wallets than can work like a card.

<h​ardhatter:monero.social> If what I come up with is a niche enough solution I might be okay with sharing that, assuming I even solve anything

<c​omradeblin:matrix.org> Do they support p2pool payouts and or output splitting?

<x​mrfamily:matrix.org> Scalability requires regulation imo

<h​ardhatter:monero.social> In addition to new technology, it might only come down to a change in the consensus protocol, effectively a form regulation that we’ve recognized we’re okay with if we’re using non-collateral backed crypto. Don’t think we’re getting physical-collateral-backed crypto any time soon without a regulatory authority or consensus, anytime soon without wizardry levels of tech.

<c​t:xmr.mx> bluehealer: problem with standalone electronics is power consumption. monero math is too heavy for ultra low power microcontrollers, so a battery is definitely needed.

Yea, I got that already.

Also what to do with its internet connection? Is there a way for such a wallet to work offline?

<n​ihilist:m.datura.network> agreed, they did a good job stackwallet.com

<c​t:xmr.mx> I'm exited for the seedsigner thing, that gets us closer to monero on hardware

<c​t:xmr.mx> 100% offline is not possible, but connection over NFC could be enough

<c​t:xmr.mx> Stack Wallet

Yea, I was referring to the absence of device's independent connection.

Cool, would look at that.

<c​onk:monero.social> Just made a pgp key, sadly matrix doesn't support pgp

<c​omradeblin:matrix.org> Do they support p2pool payouts and or output splitting?

<n​ihilist:m.datura.network> honestly idk, i'll let someone who knows try

<n​ihilist:m.datura.network> honestly idk, i'll let someone who knows respond

<x​mrfamily:matrix.org> There is issue with fingerprint sign in on s24 ultra

<x​mrfamily:matrix.org> U can still use pgp on matrix?

<x​mrfamily:matrix.org> Just might be long messages so recommend to use pastebin as to not spam chat or u can just send in encrypted messages

<b​asses:matrix.org> why would u need that?

<b​asses:matrix.org> Community putting effort

<b​asses:matrix.org> no reliance on state or big tech

<c​onk:monero.social> Verification

<c​onk:monero.social> Just in case

<c​onk:monero.social> Its probably gonna be useless for me 99% of the time

<c​onk:monero.social> Unless I wanna encrypt and decrypt specific shit

<c​onk:monero.social> In not that important or popular yet anyways

<c​onk:monero.social> Better safe than sorry

<x​mrfamily:matrix.org> Looks like a #Monero mining botnet was taken offline. ~0.8GH

<x​mrfamily:matrix.org> Most of the lost hashrate came from the three largest centralized pools.

<x​mrfamily:matrix.org> p2pool is now the 3rd largest pool by hashrate.

<x​mrfamily:matrix.org> Less total hashrate, but a larger percentage of it is decentralized hash.

<x​mrfamily:matrix.org> Net good or net bad?

<x​mrfamily:matrix.org> I saw this and thought interesting

<d​ave.jp:matrix.org> Net bad for network

Revuo Monero Issue 197: May 23 - 30, 2024. revuo-xmr.com/issue-197.html

<x​mrfamily:matrix.org> It is important and popular. Please don't say that

<c​onk:monero.social> what is?

<c​onk:monero.social> Im not that important or popular yet anyways

<p​epe86frog:matrix.org> A lot of division and paid shit smearing in Monero sadly. We're going to end up like Bitcoin in a few years.

<p​epe86frog:matrix.org> We'll have "compliant xmr" in no time

<c​onk:monero.social> nuh uh

<b​asses:matrix.org> coindesk.com/business/2024/05/31/ja…hange-dmm-bitcoin-suffers-305m-hack

<b​asses:matrix.org> lol CEX falling down

<p​reland:matrix.org> Monero cash wen eta

Hi all, I hope this doesn't qualify as a monero-dev quesiton. I'm studying cryptonight and randomx for a uni project, and I have a question: how is randomx related to cryptonote?

I know that cryptonote is the protocol used by Monero, while randomx is the PoW algorithm. I found some old papers (Cryptonote v1 and v2, through web archive) that explain how the protocol was born. Now I'm not sure whether we can still talk about Cryptonote becase "CryptoNight is the name of the hash function that is used in the CryptoNote

Proof-of-Work algorithm", while using RandomX

Guest54903854: You'll probably get a more in depth response in #monero-dev or #monero-research-lounge (or #monero-louge i don't remember)

Thank you, forwarded there

<z​ero0zero:matrix.org> hey so

<z​ero0zero:matrix.org> anyone here. I was thinking.

<c​t:xmr.mx> <autoreplybot> no one is here, this room is completely empty

<z​ero0zero:matrix.org> yea so

<z​ero0zero:matrix.org> is anyone willing do some trade? P2P.

<z​ero0zero:matrix.org> DM me if your willing to consider. I need to sell. But we can negotiate on rates.

<z​ero0zero:matrix.org> cryptocurrency in this case. more info if your interested

<n​ihilist:m.datura.network> feel free to hop on haveno to post ur offer too

<n​ihilist:m.datura.network> feel free to hop on haveno dex to post ur offer too

<n​ihilist:m.datura.network> blog.nihilism.network/servers/haveno-client-f2f/index.html

<z​ero0zero:matrix.org> huh

<z​ero0zero:matrix.org> assuming this is that hard to do I wish I knew about this before

<z​ero0zero:matrix.org> isn't*

<n​ihilist:m.datura.network> it supports the main fiat -> xmr transaction types

<z​ero0zero:matrix.org> assuming this isn't that hard to do I wish I knew about this before

<n​ihilist:m.datura.network> cash by mail, bank transfer, etc

<z​ero0zero:matrix.org> hmm

<z​ero0zero:matrix.org> got it

<c​onk:monero.social> whats ur opinion on trading monero with monery but using things like paypal, wise, revolut, cashapp, venmo, etc...

<c​onk:monero.social> instead of bank transfer or cash by mail

<n​ihilist:m.datura.network> Careful there are a lot of payment options with chargeback risks

<n​ihilist:m.datura.network> We'll get it documented for each payment option

<p​rivacyx:monero.social> I trade with you if your offer is good but through haveno
