<3​21bob321:monero.social> When will the movie be on vhs?

<d​ave.jp:matrix.org> Does ztrash also have something like xmr 10 block conf ?

it’s already on a torrent somewhere afaik

<b​lurt4949:matrix.org> No, just 1 block. in ZEC the user is responsible for taking on the risk of accepting/spending-from a potentially unsafe transaction with lower confirmations

<r​ecanman:kernal.eu> Most people are unaware of Zcash's advances. There are some good papers from Zcash research

<b​lurt4949:matrix.org> Out of all the poor design choices Zcash has, to its credit, this one is fairly reasonable IMO

<r​ecanman:kernal.eu> Cryptography-wise

<r​ecanman:kernal.eu> In terms of the current network infra, no i dea, but lookin STARKS are a field of further study

I have some opinions I'm about to let out, mostly flaws with monero (and most if not all cryptocurrency)

irreversible transactions are a double-edged sword at best, see the ccs hack

it's not user friendly at all. I couldn't expect my mother to ever use monero to actually buy anything, let alone keep her wallet secure. heck even the monero dev team has trouble with this (see again the ccs hack)

merchants love that though , as opposed to being in limbo waiting for card payments to clear

PoW is better than PoS, but a proof of useful work would be better (folding@home, gimps, etc)

Irreversible transactions are the name of the game. Radical equality, and responsibility.

Re: your mom: perhaps you can keep her moneros on you, and custody them for her?

if I did that it wouldn't be trustless k4r4b3y

my mom would have to trust me

pick one: irreversibility and trustlessness are at odds.

if monero tx'es were reveersible, you would have to trust someone to not reverse them.

I don't disagree that they're at odds, but that still makes it a flaw/disadvantage compared to a centralized system

centralized system is not trustless either.

What exactly are you searching for?

of course they're not

k4r4b3y, I'm not searching for anything

I'm thinking of things to improve on

alright

I dont think it's realistic to expect mass adoption without fixing some of that stuff

monero's randomx isn't completely useless compute -- think of space heaters and small scale residential solar electricity grid balancing on-demand load.

a warm place for Cat to rest

mass adoption will come in steps. Monero's trustlessness, irreversibility in its transactions, may retard the overnight mass adoption -- but that's fine. People will start accepting and using Monero on their own pace.

k4r4b3y, adoption is stagnant. bitinfocharts.com/comparison/monero-transactions.html the number of transactions has been stagnant for the past 2 years

the people who want it are already using it

"Of course. He wouldn't keep my dick in his mouth all the time if it weren't because he's obsessed with me." << you wish, rottenwheel

you're the one who asked like 40times for me to call you, used words like "admirable" when speaking to me in with your soft tones

Nice to see someone testing out XmrSigner (even it is still an odl version) the latest XmrSigner build github.com/DiosDelRayo/MoneroSigner/releases/tag/v0.9 (dev image based on PiOS (slow and writeable)) , if people would like to know exactly what im working on, you can track everything on this page: diosdelrayo.github.io

I see, I caused a mess with getting stuck in the rebranding in the middle and also not putting the things more simple... I will do that in the following days. If you are intrested to support me making XmrSigner production ready (working on XmrSigner OS (buildroot v2 based) instead of PiOS, and a quick library instead of wasting 3 min to recover a wallet from a seed), I have a CCS proposal to address this issue here: repo.

getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/495

<w​aywardson:matrix.org> my monero node which has https sometimes does a TLS timeout, sometimes it takes a couple seconds for the get_height response

<w​aywardson:matrix.org> wondering why

What would happen if the US gov were to sanction Monero?

Would we see a tornado cash repeat where they go after the core devs cause the actual project is decentralized?

just curious about the scenario

<r​ecanman:kernal.eu> They would probably try to arrest/extradite core developers

<r​ecanman:kernal.eu> As for the users, not sure. They would probably have to 'give up' their wallets, same way people report XMR to IRS

<r​ecanman:kernal.eu> ISPs may be told to block traffic that is fingerprinted as node traffic

<r​ecanman:kernal.eu> Because of US power, it would probably be delisted in many many places, even outside US

They would probably treat Monero devs like they do DNM admins.

<r​ecanman:kernal.eu> Yeah, think Ross Ulbricht

ye

Yikes. Not a fun scenario to envision.

And the sad thing is that DNMs either exit gracefully (rare), exit scan or get busted. So there wouldn't really be long-living personas with years of trust built...
