00:33:11 hi 00:35:23 I have a question about the sourcecode of monero on github monero/src/cryptonote(files), what are the uses of these files? 00:36:09 I know that cryptonote was a fork of bytecoin which has been used as a basis for monero 00:36:49 however since monero has evolved so much, I wonder what the purpose of these files are 00:41:21 i think you may need to ask ai to clarify that statement 00:41:49 The "i know that.." part 07:08:10 some guesses: 07:08:11 1. even if monero evolved it still has to support everything that exists on the blockchain, that uses old cryptonote algorithms. Don't wanna end up in a situation where someone sleeps for a decade then comes back to their money becoming unspendable (i.e. gone) 07:08:13 2. maybe things changed but the internal names didn't. 07:08:48 s/even if/even though/ 07:09:30 All of them? 07:09:37 i go by many IP addresses. 07:10:07 (not really) 07:15:18 Plantfish: "I know that cryptonote was a fork of bytecoin which has been used as a basis for monero" Well, not exactly. 07:15:47 "CryptoNote" is the name of a technology. ByteCoin was the first cryptocurrency going life with that technology. 07:16:17 Monero forked from ByteCoin, like many other coins did around the same time. Almost all are not around anymore, however. 07:17:24 It's like root:kimapr.net said: A Monero daemon must be able to understand and verify for correctness and validity *all* Monero transactions ever done 07:18:10 And Monero still uses some aspects of CryptoNote, e.g. the 2-key sytem with spend key plus view key, and the address format. 07:23:28 Oh, I always forget, it's not "ByteCoin" with capital "C", it's "Bytecoin" .... 09:40:05 Is anyone else banned off #monero-pools for some reason? 09:40:37 Nvm, it's moved to Rizen apparently 09:40:43 Infinity8 everyone's banned. The channel was shut down by libera staff. 09:40:54 Yes, it's on Rizon now. 10:54:58 A talk with Alaskanon on Financial Reformation. If Christians started to use Monero for missions it would greatly help with XMR adoption. If you know any Christians consider sharing this conversation with them https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHd71cejcKU 12:05:48 Don't pay attention to this person as they are trying to spread FUD and misinformation in this community in an attempt to dump the price of Monero after feeling salty that their privacy token was cracked in 10 minutes by kayaba. 12:10:21 Monero isn't perfect. While there are vulnerabilities addressed in the Breaking Monero series, as well as recently reviewed by xenu's videos, none of these issues are catastrophic. What's truly concerning is the price of Dero, which is unfortunately approaching zero after its privacy was compromised. 12:10:27 https://matrix.monero.social/_matrix/media/v1/download/matrix.org/sVpVJbtQlpfOzJHSqbatCJFF 12:11:04 I think there is some discussion about zk stark long time ago 12:11:24 MRL 0001 12:11:25 Are we still researching on it? Or it is simply get replaced by fcmp 12:11:33 Long before breaking monero 12:11:57 https://www.getmonero.org/resources/research-lab/pubs/MRL-0001.pdf 12:12:17 This? 12:23:25 Yes 12:35:19 I just realized that I essentially repeated all of your points. Oops. 12:41:07 np love u 13:04:27 they could have paid kaya his bounty, so he can pump it back 13:06:05 they could have been a responsive in under 3 days, but unfortunately their *"team"* has been absent for a week 14:18:29 plowsof, so your running an xmrchain instance and have lots of connections? whats the question? 14:21:33 ah yes, because mine is not well known, and only stagenet, theres no reason for anyone to care to make so many connections 14:22:02 feels like some background internet noise sniffing for xmrblock instances? for reasons unknown? 14:54:10 When i ran stressnet explorer, there was a lot of ppl autoconnected 24/7 14:54:47 i only ran it on onion, so dw, they all looked like localhost 14:56:15 Github actual warns that the maintainer of the repo will have access to your info 14:56:46 Not justs orgs. Also when inviting someone to a personal repo 15:09:57 ofrnxmr also tor only, strange 15:14:24 I missed the context for ginperpolice's question 15:14:53 What was he responding to? 16:05:05 Seems like NymVPN app just got released recently 16:05:21 gotta give NymNet a try 16:05:53 Maybe they will take over the defunct Oxen/Lokinet 16:12:01 Defunct? Lokinet shut down? 16:12:30 Also, how can you shut something like this down? 16:27:28 Its run on crypto nodes that nobody runs 16:30:30 Ah, in that sense. I know that Session replaced them with another coin - so that was just for Session, not Lokinet in general? 16:31:10 Not really interested in the project because a normal person cannot run a node anyway. That's not Sybil protection, that's kind of the opposite. 16:36:04 Lokinet was oxen 16:36:50 Yes, I know. So Session moved to its coin without taking Lokinet with it? 16:41:05 nah Session is still based on Lokinet 16:41:18 Oxen is the new name of Loki, the original crypto used for Lokinet 16:52:25 Isn't oxen gone or smth 16:54:55 not gone but no one uses it so dead in that sense 16:55:25 almost no nodes 16:55:26 updates are stalling 16:59:44 Welcome karuga 17:00:04 really? good to know 17:00:26 Yup 17:07:21 idk how I feel about https://forum.zcashcommunity.com/t/revised-nym-for-zcash-network-level-privacy/46688/5 17:09:52 cringe 17:49:09 Thanks! 21:15:01 rando: what doesn't seem right about it? 21:22:22 They didn’t apply for xmr ccs and went to ztrash ? 21:30:34 <1​7e:matrix.org> Hello. A little poll. What CPU do you use for mining and how much do you earn with it? 21:32:08 r/moneromining for these questions 21:32:24 not off-topic just that people mining here are mainly not doing it for profit 21:32:45 also #monero-pools but I think it got banned 21:33:03 zero proof of work shown in the build up to that question
