<ravfx:xmr.mx> Still sus

<ravfx:xmr.mx> Considering even searching for "rav" would only have the same nodes as the one that start by ravf

<ravfx:xmr.mx> Shear luck... Or some asshole, have fun finding which one.

<ravfx:xmr.mx> We need a way for now operators, to sign there "node" somehow. Especially for overlay networks

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> @ravfx:xmr.mx: Try searching for sneed

<ravfx:xmr.mx> @ofrnxmr:xmr.mx: No entries found

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> I though that belonged to sneedlewoods, but nope

<rails11326206827:matrix.org> @ravfx:xmr.mx: What site is this?

<ilha:matrix.org> What's the latest estimate on the percentage of the total Monero hash rate that is controlled by Qubic?

<sbt:nope.chat> Has anyone used nokyc.cards?

>taiwan is listed as one of the "sanctioned countries" in the terms of service

<plowsof:matrix.org> you can get a virtual card from a reputable gift card site and even then they have mixed reviews, a common theme is that they seem to expire or are flat out refused in some places. if you think a clearnet site claiming "nokyc" is going to offer you a better service (even claims "No Daily or Monthly Spending Limits" infinity) t [... too long, see mrelay.p2pool.observer/e/tNLyw7oKbkJDeEVW ]

yes

<plowsof:matrix.org> or the advertising is true, there are no kyc, no limits, nothing - illegal honey pot or what? 🤷

read the little disclaimer at the end of the page

"Payments are processed via Cryptomus and are subject to AML policies of the payment gateway."

<plowsof:matrix.org> 👍️

<sbt:nope.chat> @plowsof:matrix.org: Yeah most of em don't work at all (prepaid cards)

it's not not KYC

cryptomus offer debit cards and require KYC to use them - so

<sbt:nope.chat> Also does give off honeypot vibes, good point

<sbt:nope.chat> plowsof: From what I've heard, cryptomus is registered on some island and they themselves are sketchy

cryptomus.com/faq/what-is-the-kyc-process-like

if you find something sus, read the terms of service

and legal disclaimers

they have a bunch of <obtained> ID's and are printing cards like cookies for people to sell until the operation gets dismantled

<sbt:nope.chat> Cindy: It's not like that's always the source of truth

i know :P

but most times they'll hide something bad there

<sbt:nope.chat> Possibly

<sbt:nope.chat> plowsof: Ughhh

<br-m> <jojovial:matrix.org> the hashrate is stable.

luck is intrinsic, it's due to the exponential distribution, doesn't depend on hashrate stability

you'll see no matter the hashrate on p2pool.observer/calculate-share-time the table for luck ends up having the same shape

<testtank:matrix.org> Unpopular opinion: monero distribution is one of the worst, the top 20 addresses probably control 30-50% of the supply

<testtank:matrix.org> Of course we have no way of verifying so it’s just speculation

.... where did you grab that number

"top addresses"

it's not a balance/account chain it's an an UTXO one

Cindy: from here localmonero.co/blocks/richlist

"optionally transparent"

up until the user sends an amount to someone else

then you don't know if that's outgoing or incoming

or if it even exists

that's why it says "by address AND by transaction"

yes, you can disclose view keys + key images + tx keys for every tx

and disclose receiver etc.

so you know that all outputs are accounted for, and all receivers are too

you are transparent, but not others :)

<testtank:matrix.org> just speculation based on the super steep emission curve > <Cindy> .... where did you grab that number

also supply isn't really fixed

it's not that big of a problem

hoarding and concentration of supply is only a problem in coins that have a fixed amount of supply, because.... i don't know

like XRP

or stuff with a dev tax%

or coins that have PoS

<testtank:matrix.org> The inflation rate i think it’s 0,6% so it won’t make a difference for a really loooong time > <Cindy> also supply isn't really fixed

if there is new moneros being made, it ain't a big problem

i think the problem would be worse if monero was PoS

because then the richest people would be the ones getting new moneros

and thus more hoarding

<testtank:matrix.org> Yeah i agree, but i think it’s also fair to say that monero initial disrubution was definitely too agressive

that's a better take

indeed

or better yet, ASIC PoW

... maybe

<helene:unredacted.org> i don't think it matters all that much due to how old it is, it's from a time when people still didn't properly backup their keys

<helene:unredacted.org> and most miners were mining via nicehash or similar

back then, the early one, it matters lol

original release had a bad miner

some people discovered this and implemented a better one for themselves, but apparently the original team then also had an optimized one to make more

<helene:unredacted.org> not too surprising

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> There were hundreds of thousands of xmr created in the first couple weeks

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> over 10% of todays supply in the first 90 days

it had that curve so that people could dump, not so they could hold for 11 years

pumped and dumped every time it got added to an exchange

<testtank:matrix.org> Found this random video of a guy dumping 100k moneros 10 years ago: youtube.com/watch?v=2ofpaF5pkE8

<testtank:matrix.org> An easy 30M now

<3

<helene:unredacted.org> he could have been a bajillionaire

<eddie:oblak.be> @helene:unredacted.org: hindsight and whatnot

<eddie:oblak.be> Most people that are long enough in crypto "lost" potentially millions, isn't it?

<eddie:oblak.be> But 1 XMR is still 1 XMR 😉
