05:13:48 Hey guys can I get some suggestions for best decentralized exchanges? Looking to swap Btc -> Xmr as privately as possible. 05:13:48 So far i've had a small look at 2, Basicswap and EigenWallet. 05:13:48 So far I like Eigenwallet but it seems to have next to 0 liquidity. As far as I can tell for Basicswap, its the biggest piece of shit i've ever seen 05:13:48 Appreciate any input, cheers :) 06:50:25 https://chill.mycotrip.tech/uploads/51e8c0510a9f900e/image.png 07:40:21 @radar69420:matrix.org: RetoSwap 09:31:36 Qubic price is dropping, losers 😁. Featured on Rekt, https://rekt.news/hashrate-heist-or-hype (noticed only now, it's 2 weeks old) 09:37:12 @TheFuzzStone:matrix.org: Tytytyty <3 10:25:02 Thanks, @eddie:oblak.be , informative article, sums it up nicely. 11:59:56 Is matrix working ? 12:11:39 yes, issue was affecting matrix.org only not others like monero.social 16:29:51 any place I can bet soccer games with xmr 16:30:06 monero.vegas seems to doesn't support it anymore 22:59:09 https://x.com/c___f___b/status/1963651895479640356 who is paying for cumfrombehind hashrate ? 23:03:15 TIL that you can sell mining rewards 🤯 23:03:30 "We can do it every day as long as #Monero is PoW." 23:03:52 @ofrnxmr:xmr.mx: A eternity 23:04:39 no of txs: 474, size: 1014.21 kB 23:04:52 This is tiersome 23:05:14 Ghe txpool? 23:05:30 Yah seems like selfish mining 23:05:43 My fcmp txpool is 5mb and blocks are down to 1.5mb 23:05:46 Delaying honest tx conf 23:05:52 (i accidentally mined 100 empty blocks) 23:06:18 The biggest issue i see with minining empty or small blocks, is it fks with the scaling 23:06:39 Doesnt matter how much you pay, if half of the blocks are empty, theyll never grow 23:10:59 Selfish miners > <@elongated:matrix.org> https://x.com/c___f___b/status/1963651895479640356 who is paying for cumfrombehind hashrate ? 23:11:49 @eddie:oblak.be: Who pays their hardware power bills 23:12:24 These monero miners that switch over to qubic just for a few extra cents 23:13:07 @eddie:oblak.be: They have their own hashrate which disappears when cubic isn’t mining 23:13:35 I have no idea honestly 23:13:57 Why would any serious investor spend money on this drama 23:13:58 Are they burning some VC funds ? 23:14:04 Which VC 23:14:11 Idk 23:14:13 this AGI is clearly going nowhere 23:14:22 qubic price is going down 23:18:56 This CFB guy is like an annoying bully. A real keyboard warrior 23:19:19 Keyboard warrior with hashrate 23:20:29 Does anyone know exactly what happened during his involvement with iota ? 23:22:20 @elongated:matrix.org: oh it's that time of the week again 23:24:31 @eddie:oblak.be: Yah every week that asshole fucks up network reliability 23:25:17 Seems like not that much criminals use Monero after all, I had expected his qubic thing hacked to shambles by now 23:26:20 @eddie:oblak.be: Pretty much nobody uses it, it’s mostly spam scripts to show tx count 😅 23:28:34 @elongated:matrix.org: Are you saying that monero usage is being faked? 23:29:50 @eddie:oblak.be: What usage ? The tx counts ? Who knows ; only think fake is “decentralised” mining face with botnets controlling majority of hashrate which can’t scale 23:31:24 According to stats there are 20 - 40k transactions each day 23:31:59 @eddie:oblak.be: How much xmr in fees needed to make those txs ? 23:32:23 I don't know 23:32:45 Not much 23:32:53 So? 23:33:32 So if someone has to fake it, it doesnt cost much while they mine via botnets n keep selling 23:35:18 Why do you keep talking about these botnets. Do you have examples? 23:36:15 I am not saying this can't be true, certainly not. Rogue cryptominers are a thing 23:36:48 https://ift.tt/FTn9rau 23:38:50 @eddie:oblak.be: Yah but thousands of legit miners mining but not buying xmr, sounds so real 23:41:25 23.000 miners (acoording to pool stats) is not that enormous 23:44:42 @eddie:oblak.be: How many of those are controlled by a few ppl 23:45:11 You tell me 23:45:25 @eddie:oblak.be: 90% 23:48:38 The article you just linked talks about a botnet that contacts moneroocean, which reports ~ 200 MH/s , 4% of the network 23:49:09 @eddie:oblak.be: One of those botnets 23:51:07 Yeah, but even then, nog all monerooceans HR is from that botnet. If Darktrace took down that botnet it certainly had not a lot of effect on the pools hashrate 23:51:35 They also don't quantify the hashrate that botnet was accounting for. 23:52:09 Okay keep dreaming thousands of monero miners are mining in basement 23:53:51 If you count qubic as a botnet, sure 90% of the network might be bots 23:57:18 It would be interesting to see real data on it though, provided by the pools for example.
