06:12:17 <br-m> <sbt:nope.chat> @plowsof:matrix.org can we conclude this please, it's been 4 days since last comment. https://bounties.monero.social/posts/206/1-210m-a-federated-file-sharing-system-with-monero-payments-to-unlock-files
07:01:44 <br-m> <plowsof:matrix.org> i've removed and invited you to the bounties room again. your example site doesnt work after the latest update.
07:01:48 <br-m> <plowsof:matrix.org> @sbt:nope.chat:
07:29:14 <br-m> <helene:unredacted.org> FYI, it's trivial to get the original IP of a node behind Cloudflare > <@reaster:matrix.reaster.dev> hi, i have a tech question,
07:30:00 <br-m> <helene:unredacted.org> if that's part of your threat model, you should probably be exclusively behind Tor or i2p
07:36:46 <br-m> <alexandre:uii.pt> hmm, this issue straight disappeared, any way to know why it was removed? https://web.archive.org/web/20250725092601/https://github.com/permissionlesstech/bitchat/issues/276monero transactions on bitchat
08:11:40 <br-m> <reaster:matrix.reaster.dev> @helene:unredacted.org: yeah i wondered that, can you explain how?
08:11:40 <br-m> <reaster:matrix.reaster.dev> i think the next step would be to have a setup with dynamic dns and rolling proxies
08:12:26 <br-m> <helene:unredacted.org> your node can be identified via a bunch of means since it does p2p communication in general
08:12:32 <br-m> <helene:unredacted.org> but cloudflare will also give the IPs to anyone that asks
09:18:29 <br-m> <reaster:matrix.reaster.dev> @helene:unredacted.org: (in reality it's not only about my node, it's more for the others services running there)
09:19:03 <br-m> <reaster:matrix.reaster.dev> @helene:unredacted.org: yeah i guess, but rn my threat model is really light, i just want to protect myself for the simplest dig
11:00:44 <br-m> <17lifers:mikuplushfarm.ovh> @alexandre:uii.pt: they don't want you to know
11:07:03 <br-m> <kevino:tchncs.de> Jack is a btc maxi , maybe thats why ;)
11:08:10 <br-m> <kevino:tchncs.de> Idk what are "offline" payments
11:46:51 <br-m> <alexandre:uii.pt> @kevino:tchncs.de: oh,  that could be it, i did see something about bitcoin being implemented in bitchat
11:47:28 <br-m> <alexandre:uii.pt> @kevino:tchncs.de: guess it could be transactions which could be submited later to the network, but totally offline is unfortunately impossible
16:02:55 <hunnids> last night, i started monerod via the monero gui wallet for the first time as a local node, with the box for prune blockchain ticked
16:03:25 <hunnids> after hitting 3098438, it just doesn't seem to progress any more, https://dpaste.org/cT7t1
16:03:43 <hunnids> i do see a ton of stacktraces & some other messages in bitmonero.log, https://dpaste.org/hq1x2
16:04:10 <hunnids> and i just noticed, after a reboot, the --prune-blockchain option isn't present, even though the daemon has started
16:04:29 <hunnids> not sure what to do now
16:04:41 <hunnids> do i nuke the entire lmdb dir, go from scratch?
16:04:57 <hunnids> since it didnt complete to 100% with the --prune-blockchain option?
16:06:02 <hunnids> or is this As Expected (TM), and I should just wait it out?
16:28:53 <selsta> hunnids: you only have to start with --prune-blockchain once
16:29:12 <selsta> you can continue without it afterwards once the prune flag is set
16:31:22 <hunnids> gotcha, good to know
16:32:37 <hunnids> sync_info -> connected to 15 peers, downloading at 2256 kB/s, yet still stuck on height 3098438, for about 4 hours now?
16:32:38 <hunnids> ugh
16:33:12 <hunnids> i see a lot of hosts being banned, new top candidates returning, so its definitely doing something
16:33:28 <hunnids> just not progressing, it seem to the untrained eye :D
16:46:07 <hunnids> w00t, the height finally changed to 3098488, after sitting on 3098438 for 3h50m \o/
17:09:33 <selsta> hunnids: lots of banning is not good, usually hints at an issue
17:10:13 <hunnids> hmm i dont know what else to look for
17:10:31 <hunnids> i'm running it in a whonix vm, its connected over tor
17:14:10 <hunnids> the last 20m of bitmonero.log are mostly bans, https://dpaste.org/SGw63
17:14:30 <hunnids> I'll try another circuit I suppose
17:45:19 <binarybaron_hall> hi
17:45:39 <binarybaron> hi
17:52:02 <br-m> <ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> You're forked off on an alt chain
18:09:07 <br-m> <binarybaron:matrix.org> which irc bridge bot does the Monero community use ?
18:09:57 <br-m> <helene:unredacted.org> pretty sure it's one that DataHoarder made
18:10:09 <DataHoarder> depends on channel. but yeah, it's custom made
18:10:15 <DataHoarder> others still use matterbridge
18:10:50 <DataHoarder> seems binarybaron is also on IRC side :D
18:13:00 <br-m> <binarybaron:matrix.org> hmm, any chance you can bridge the channel for eigenwallet (Monero wallet) too 👉👈
18:51:49 <DataHoarder> is it on monero.social?
18:51:58 <DataHoarder> or libera.chat at least :D
18:52:18 <DataHoarder> at the moment I haven't taken further channels (it's in testing) but once it covers all I think it'd be fine
19:07:18 <br-m> <binarybaron:matrix.org> it’s on libera.chat (#eigenwallet on libera.chat, #unstoppableswap:matrix.org on Matrix)
19:13:58 <hunnids> a ton of new circuits later and its syncing at 3-4MB/s over tor again
19:14:04 <hunnids> :shrug:
21:31:09 <Cindy_> i have a patch to monero that enables DNS-over-TLS for the DNS part of it
21:31:17 <Cindy_> but like.. it's a few lines, so i wonder it's even worth a PR
21:54:52 <DataHoarder> It is
21:55:07 <DataHoarder> My last PR is a single line
21:55:40 <DataHoarder> https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/10103
21:55:47 <Cindy_> i wanted to use DNS-over-HTTPS, but i'd have to modify unbound
21:55:57 <DataHoarder> (Plus one to 0.18 branch)
21:56:02 <Cindy_> and i didn't feel like doing that rn, so DNS-over-TLS is good enough
21:56:24 <DataHoarder> DNS over TLS already defeats interception which is a common thing in some ISP
21:56:53 <DataHoarder> I see high value on it
