01:21:48 <m-relay> <b​lurt4949:matrix.org> No clue how accurate this is, but qubic claims to have been within 30 MH/s of controlling >50% of the network's total hashrate at 7:46 UTC. The self-reported hashrates from known pools on https://miningpoolstats.stream/monero seem to contradict this, but thought it was worth noting. https://explorer.jetskipool.ai/xmr-tracker.html

01:24:06 <m-relay> <3​21bob321:monero.social> 🍺
01:29:41 <jpc4r> don't believe its accurate, maybe some one can correct me if i
01:30:06 <jpc4r> if I'm wrong, but they need to control 51% of the hashrate including their own contribution. so actual hashrate required is around 5 gh/s 
01:30:47 <jpc4r> they got around 30-32% at peak hash rate I believe
01:32:40 <jpc4r> thats also if we assume we believe the numbers they are reporting. actual blocks found was around 25% 
01:47:22 <m-relay> <o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Theyd need upwards of 4gh

08:21:07 <m-relay> <b​asses:matrix.org> oh, I never used Parallels VM
14:26:20 <Cindy> hey lotsen 
14:27:03 <lotsen> Hello
14:47:43 <m-relay> <k​ufecure:xmr.se> why does the price crash
14:49:11 <m-relay> <p​lowsof:matrix.org> ask in #monero-markets:monero.social  no price talk here thank you
15:34:34 <ibex> Anyone online?
15:35:25 <lotsen> I am
15:35:39 <ibex> Hello.
15:36:11 <ibex> I think the whole Monero thing is interesting, and I'd like to get my hands on some.
15:36:21 <ibex> But the country I live in banned it.
15:36:38 <ibex> Not the ownership of Monero, just the buying and selling of it.
15:37:07 <ibex> My rig isn't powerful enough to mine it, either.
15:37:31 <ibex> Got any advice?
15:39:14 <lotsen> Do you have a cpu
15:39:17 <lotsen> then you can mine
15:39:28 <ibex> Of course.
15:39:34 <ibex> But not very efficiently.
15:39:54 <ibex> Electricity here is also quite expensive.
15:40:22 <lotsen> ohh yeah
15:41:17 <Cindy_> ibex: you can get some via haveno!
15:41:41 <ibex> What's "Haveno"?
15:41:56 <Cindy_> decentralized XMR exchange based on bisq
15:42:03 <Cindy_> the most popular instance is retoswap
15:42:10 <Cindy_> but there are some other ones too
15:42:27 <ibex> Huh.
15:42:56 <gingeropolous> do you have any skills or anything to sell?
15:43:06 <ibex> Me?
15:43:08 <gingeropolous> https://xmrbazaar.com/
15:43:10 <gingeropolous> yah
15:43:13 <ibex> Oh.
15:43:17 <ibex> I dunno.
15:43:26 <ibex> I can bake really good bread...
15:43:40 <gingeropolous> yah never know. someone might want some really good bread
15:43:50 <Cindy_> for XMR? hahaha
15:44:59 <ibex> Does XMR Bazaar have an Onion Site?
15:45:08 <Cindy_> nah
15:45:14 <Cindy_> but you can use it within tor
15:45:20 <ibex> OK
15:45:38 <ibex> I'll check it out.
15:48:11 <ibex> I just checked out XMR Bazaar...
15:48:19 <ibex> No one in my country uses it.
15:48:35 <ibex> So I can't really sell bread there.
15:50:00 <ibex> Also: most of the stuff on there is pretty sketchy...
15:50:10 <gingeropolous> well yeah
15:50:11 <Cindy_> oh yeah i can't blame you
15:50:34 <Cindy_> the ones with the AI photos are especially super sus
15:58:54 <m-relay> <a​lexandre:uii.pt> they do have some upvotes, but unsure if that's trustworthy in any way
15:59:13 <Cindy_> how easy is it to bot upvotes
16:01:25 <m-relay> <a​lexandre:uii.pt> not sure how that platform works
16:02:09 <m-relay> <a​lexandre:uii.pt> i'm curious on how reto protects the transactions tho, pay by mail in particular. there's the dispute but what prevents the seller from saying they didn't get the money?
16:03:19 <Cindy_> tracking mail?
16:04:06 <nioc> retoswap has info on their site about how to best do pay by mail
16:04:25 <nioc> as well as other good info
16:08:45 <m-relay> <a​lexandre:uii.pt> oh, got it
23:51:39 <jpc4r> anyone know why I'm banned from #monero-pools
23:54:21 <nioc> that channel moved irc networks
