hi guys, can the CLI wallet create QR codes, either as PNG or ascii art?
-
br-m
<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> Pretty sure
-
br-m
<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> show_qr_code
-
chymera
br-m: awesome thank you
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> What kind of crypto use proof of stake? O.o
-
br-m
<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> A lot
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> @ofrnxmr:xmr.mx: I'm sure, but trying to find which aren't shitcoins xD Ethereum seems to use it i think
-
br-m
<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> Yea
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> Instead of miners it's called validators?
-
br-m
<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> yea
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> Interesting stuff
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> I'm gonna need to try this xD seems super cool
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> Huh, it needs 32 Etherium to become a validator? So 100k eur? Lol
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> aight fuck it, taking the bait on that one, just in case wholesome shits lol
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> @prime:heyadora.com: u aware of pokemon? well crypto is pretty much the same, there's alot of shit pokemon, pikachu is goated af tho
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> at the moment am unclear what the state of Proof of Work will be for Monero, since there is currently work being done regarding that
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> but Proof of Stake does have alot of flaws, Ethereum used to be Proof of Work (GPU mining) but moved over to PoS few years ago, because the ones that already had big bags figured that was the way for them to make more $, or something along those lines or at least my interpretation of it lol
-
BlueyHealer
From what I understand, it does have less energy usage - it's just still a lot and comes with too significant downsides.
-
BlueyHealer
I wonder just how hard it is to run an ETH validator now.
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> @fungible.:matrix.org: Lmao
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> :3
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> BlueyHealer: tbh, i still think PoW is the way but i just been way too lazy for awhile to do any of that techy shit, the whole maintaining the rigs and so on...
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> so i guess for now is let's wait and see on what that finality layer thing will even be about, to have a better idea of the options right now
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> I always knew about crypto but never really got into it tbh xD but it looks so fun now that I learned more stuff > <@fungible.:matrix.org> at the moment am unclear what the state of Proof of Work will be for Monero, since there is currently work being done regarding that
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> Is monero made in Rust? Where is the src?
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> c++ if i not mistaken but alot of things in the ecosystem right now are being written in rust, SeraiDEX being one of them, there is also Cuprate and so on
-
br-m
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> as for cuprate, is a work in progress type thing:
-
br-m
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> @fungible.:matrix.org: Very interesting
-
br-m
<sbt:nope.chat> wtf zcash is at 665? that's crazy
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> 666 lol
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> 🤘😈🤘
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> @fungible.:matrix.org: Do you think it's dangerous if I buy crypto with my real identity and then exchange it to Monero? O.o
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> depends of your real identity tbh, for most would say is whatever, you can just churn those funds away afterward, i personally been doing retoswap instead of KYC, walking the doggos, befriending other doggos walkers and then they do the thingy on my behalf type of thing
-
BlueyHealer
I avoid CEXes just because it's one more place for a leak. And if there's a crackdown, there'd be evidence that some years ago I bought crypto.
-
br-m
<sbt:nope.chat> @prime:heyadora.com: It's not dangerous but banks and govts obv hate monero so they will definitely put you on a watch list
-
br-m
<sbt:nope.chat> BlueyHealer: Agreed. Crackdowns are inevitable
-
BlueyHealer
I don't even think about crackdowns on XMR in particular, just crypto in general.
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> i guess, if your identity is not known in the community, you could do retoswap without too much worry since it's peer to peer and people wouldnt be keeping logs on that type of things
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> would still avoid centralized exchanges tho, KYC leaks been happening all over the place from them :/
-
br-m
<sbt:nope.chat> Leaks in general are at all time high, even more reasons to not use CEX
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> right
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> @fungible.:matrix.org: Very interesting, i hate gray areas xD
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> x)
-
BlueyHealer
Leaks would be biggest and most realistic concern about this, ye
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> Like I would gladly even report every transaction i make to the gov or whatever xD just let me legally use this stuff
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> right that make senses, i mean, specially for business owners, they not doing that shit for free and they gotta comply regardless
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> idk much about complying tho x)
-
BlueyHealer
I've seen screenshots of some businesses having a markup on payments that are done in crypto.
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> but there are business like shopinbit for example, it works for them so why not u know
-
BlueyHealer
Apparently due to regulations. That seems like a fair tradeoff, at least they're not asking for KYC, just somewhat compensating for risks.
-
br-m
<sbt:nope.chat> @prime:heyadora.com: Why? The whole point is eliminating their approval
-
BlueyHealer
For a business - less so than for individuals.
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> @sbt:nope.chat: Eliminating the need for bank approval is already a victory to me xD and I use stuff because it's cool >:3
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> Making a giant successful store with easy crypto payments would be so cool owo
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> sounds awesome tbh
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> its so hard to get businesses to start accepting that crypto thing tho, like, i been involved in my local communities here and there, like asking restaurants if they would accept that crypto thing but alot of the time is just, they dont see it as an alternative currency but just a way for cryptobros to become rich quick type thing, which is pretty sad tbh
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> @fungible.:matrix.org: Lol ye, crypto has such bad taste for a lot of people xD
-
BlueyHealer
Yeah, the fact that reputation is so tainted is so horrible.
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> for online businesses tho, there's options that make it easy, payment processors and whatnot, i dont have the names right now but would look at things like shopinbit and things like that, what they're using and having an integration like that i guess
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> then just complying the same way as they do, reporting sales and whatnot type thing
-
BlueyHealer
apparently some of the commercial processors make it pointless by requiring KYC third parties for processing crypto payments though.
-
BlueyHealer
Are there ones that allow that normally but still deal with the legal reporting and such?
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> 32 > <BlueyHealer> I wonder just how hard it is to run an ETH validator now.
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> @fungible.:matrix.org: Crypto not ready
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> @boriskernov:matrix.org: what would make Crypto ready in your opinion? i think it was ready, but people just went the other way with the nfts, the pumps and dumps and rugpulls or whatever those even are lol
-
BlueyHealer
I'm just mad they stained the reputation for legitimate use.
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> right :/
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> @fungible.:matrix.org: Quantum proof, easy ux, very low fees, real privacy without weak ring ct, and possibility to use without internet
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> Grease L2 can be used without internet right?
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> Dont know if possible
-
BlueyHealer
Possibility to use without internet? Why? The only way i see it happening is face-to-face, and there you have cash.
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> BlueyHealer: In war internet go out and if dont want reliance on government cash is not option
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> BlueyHealer: I work in a store, cash is horrible xD i hate counting it
-
br-m
-
br-m
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> (for offline payments at things like events and whatnot)
-
BlueyHealer
That sounds farfetched. If SHTF, barter is way more likely and practical than anything electronic.
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> Not farfetched in happen to me
-
BlueyHealer
prime, still - I think it's the way IRL. Crypto shines when the business is not conducted face-to-face.
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> @prime:heyadora.com: am the opposite on that lol, literally cash all the way x)
-
BlueyHealer
boriskernov, oh, sorry to hear... I mean something so weird that normal cash is somehow not an option.
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> Bitcoin have mesh network without internet
-
BlueyHealer
In such a situation, it would be better to pay with something that does not rely on frail enectronics and, y'know, having power to charge your device.
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> o7 lochamesh

br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org>
github.com/btcven/locha
-
BlueyHealer
Cool!
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> @fungible.:matrix.org: Try counting it 1000 times a day xD it's so annoying. Absolute pain. They buy like one candy with 200eur bill, scream at my face for counting too slowly, etc etc
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> This still needs internet
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> @fungible.:matrix.org: Monero support it
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> You cant boadcast a TX without it touching the internet eventually
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> Meanwhile others just touch with their debit card and go away owo perfect customer xD
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> @hooftly:matrix.org: For me this fine
-
BlueyHealer
prime, eww, indeed. That's why it's satisfying for me to carry small change) I know cashers appreciate it when you pay exact.
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> Cake wallet needs offline payments owo
-
BlueyHealer
YES
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> oooh true O_O
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> pog idea tbh
-
BlueyHealer
I am just sorry to hear about this happening to you... But I don't understand how internetless crypto would be better in such a situation than cash?
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> BlueyHealer: Ruble devalue before and some accept usd in cash. I dont like using usd. Other use ton because telegram popular
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> Crypto hold value
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> BlueyHealer: Saves me the trouble of counting cash xD also imagine like refilling phone with 20 eur worth of crypto, so you wouldn't need to pull the entire fortune to a phone that might get lost xd
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> you could refill your phone in monero already tho :P
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> Internetless crypto does not work. Even locah mesh needs to connect to the internet eventually to propagate whatever transaction you sent "offline"
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> @fungible.:matrix.org: Hmmmm
-
BlueyHealer
boriskernov, ah! Yeah, we're living through the same thing lol.
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> @hooftly:matrix.org: For me this fine because internet blackout for days and come back
-
BlueyHealer
I'm surprised to see someone actually uses Ton?
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> @hooftly:matrix.org: that makes senses tbh, i personally dont really have a "need" for interneless crypto, since cash already doing great at that, cool shits tho i guess if is doable lol
-
BlueyHealer
Oh sorry didn't mean to word it like that... I mean the same thing affecting our finances. I am so sorry for sounding like this.
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> All I am trying to say is anyone who tells you that crypto can work without the internet is full of shit haha
-
BlueyHealer
hooftly, yeah, that's my issue with that too. That's why I like cash. Still would be very nice to have this feature because, say, here only the mobile internet is in blackout while wired connections work.
-
» BlueyHealer still feels bad for insensitive wording
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> @prime:heyadora.com: oh i guess i missread you, i guess you might have been refering to "having to buy a whole phone with esim support just for that"
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> which those services that work with monero are through esim
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> @fungible.:matrix.org: Nah, meant people lose phones xD I've heard someone pulled like millions of bitcoin to USB drive and then lost it somewhere xd
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> right, make backups!
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> literally a piece of paper can be a backup
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> Imagine going to a retail store, opening cake wallet to pay for the stuff xD
-
br-m
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> Make this happen
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> @fungible.:matrix.org: I have zero monero in my wallet xD

-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> It only get worser with crash
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> well start accepting it, u might get some x)
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> Bitcoin big crash make people avoid for long time
-
BlueyHealer
I prefer the money that just doesn't leave a record - Monero, or any other similar tech could have some flaws that eventually allow correlation.
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> When it happen in future
-
BlueyHealer
Yeah
-
BlueyHealer
Also heard that even some of "We accept BTC!" signs are through third-parties as I mentioned.
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> BlueyHealer: Monero is blockchain leave record for quantum to crack. It has to be quantum proof
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> i mean, isnt it kinda a thing already tho?
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> like, i can go to grocerie store and get food through cakewallet already
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> @boriskernov:matrix.org: PQC is being worked on/reaearched
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> @hooftly:matrix.org: I believe when I see it on Monero
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> Store now and decrypt later
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> fcmp++ already does have some quantum resistance features tho? not quantum proof but that's a start no?
-
br-m
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> @fungible.:matrix.org: Forward secrecy not enough. Monero use cryptographic ecdsa with FCMP++. not quantum proof
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> If you show address before post quantum upgrade it can crack by quantum computer still
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> @fungible.:matrix.org: What store owo
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> @prime:heyadora.com: Switzerland
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> well not directly the store but giftcards accepted by the stores which can be bought directly within cakewallet
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> also yea, switerland, SPAR which is in 48 countries but only switzerland for now
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> How would I exchange it back to EUR xD > <@fungible.:matrix.org> well start accepting it, u might get some x)
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> retoswap
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> setup a PO box
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> @boriskernov:matrix.org: Everyone acknowkedges this. Its not like its being ignores like BTC is ignoring it
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> Retoswap with ATM code is the best
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> No meet and no delivery you can get EUR for XMR
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> oh right no nvm, u no likey cash lol
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> @boriskernov:matrix.org: Interesting owo they have stores that accept crypto?
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> can do bank transfers there tho
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> SPAR supermarkets yea
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> their integrations is through dfx.swiss which been having monero support
-
BlueyHealer
hooftly, yeah, but I mean not just that - flaws in general that are unknown at the time.
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> which is also integrated in cakewallet
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> @boriskernov:matrix.org: that was the best way in localmonero iirc, is that a thing in haveno tho?
-
BlueyHealer
Maybe I've not been looking closely enough, but it seems like ATM codes are just not a thing here. There are roundabout ways to transfer via ATM, but I don't think I've seen a place accept that on Localmonero. Not looked at Reto yet, but apparently not a lot of local offers.
-
BlueyHealer
I've also looked at Bestchange, there are even cash options... But all for ridiculously huge sums, not anywhere close to like $40.
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> tried looking for it as well, but i remember it was popular in latin american countries (ATM codes)
-
BlueyHealer
Does Retoswap work with bridges btw?
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> Interesting lol > <@fungible.:matrix.org> SPAR supermarkets yea
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> wdym by bridges? it routes traffic through teh tor network, not sure if that's what you're refering to
-
BlueyHealer
I mean Tor is blocked directly, so one would need a bridge for that.
-
BlueyHealer
I just know some software insists on using its own Tor process instead of system one, and that one is not guaranteed to support bridges.
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> does vpn work? if so you could have it nested that way
-
BlueyHealer
I mean if you don't have one.
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> but yea idk, maybe it does have bridges, i really have no idea, sowry
-
BlueyHealer
Also, often see it not recommended - is it just because it's not an extra protection, or there is some weird nuance if used like this?
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> i mean, it bundles the whole browser in the software so it should be able to imo
-
BlueyHealer
I guess one could use proxychains? Not all software is friends with that, though...
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> i literally never was able to get a proper answer on that tbh lol
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> vpn or no vpn with it, no idea lol
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> but there's a lot of debate around that
-
BlueyHealer
I was specifically thinking about situation where bridges are not desirable. Yeah, still figuring that out.
-
BlueyHealer
(not desirable or not working)
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> either way, it doesnt go out to exit nodes anyways, it stays on the hidden service layer thing
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> I'm currently at work, so hard to chat xD
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> feel free to stop by anytime when u got free time <3
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> People buy mostly drugs btw, I sell to 1k people a day and 60%+ is just alcohol/cigarettes :V
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> @fungible.:matrix.org: Because Tor honeypot many dont research Tor very lots of nodes from Germany and vulnerabilities
github.com/Attacks-on-Tor/Attacks-on-Tor
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> @fungible.:matrix.org: Is there off-topic room?
-
BlueyHealer
Example of "own Tor but no bridges" would be Briar.
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> there is, havent checked it yet but #monero-offtopic is a thing yea
-
BlueyHealer
fungible, I know, it doesn't matter in my question. What matters is being able to connect to Tor at all.
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> Use i2p not Tor
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> ^
-
BlueyHealer
I love I2P too!
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> VPN with tor is fine. the argument is that by using a VPN you are fingerprinting yourself and giving up trust to the VPN. personally I use a VPN + tor because this effectively hides tor use from my ISP. > <BlueyHealer> Also, often see it not recommended - is it just because it's not an extra protection, or there is some weird nuance if used like this?
-
BlueyHealer
But from what I understand, attacks on Tor are not passive so it still fits for casual browsing I use it for. And Germany and others would not cooperate with my country's LE as well as they would with US and such anyway...
-
BlueyHealer
You are giving trust - but does that diminish Tor's value?.. The main reason is not trust and such, but the ability to connect to Tor at all.
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> @hooftly:matrix.org: Tor broken they dont need to contact ISP
-
BlueyHealer
I have not seen evidence that it is broken in a way a proxy would - with passive deanon.
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> Intelligence agencies rent nodes cheaply from EU companies and break network only 8,000 nodes for millions of users
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> Lolol
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> @hooftly:matrix.org: If use Tor look at circuit
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> Intelligence agencies use tor to communicate abroad safely its why it was invented by the navy in the first place
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> Germany will be
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> @hooftly:matrix.org: u did mention germany early which i been very sus about for few years now, is not just tor nodes they have a fuck ton of them but also bitcoin/ethereum nodes, imo their gov been in cahoots with the US for awhile now but that would be for :tinfoil: talks type shit lol
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> Everything is being recorded and tracked everywhere thats not fantasy.

But Germany isn't even friends with my government...
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> Is it actionable data probably not yet
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> Russia here banned Tor and intelligence agencies use other method to talk we dont know what...
-
BlueyHealer
Also from what I understand, for correlation attacks you would need time, and some exact identity (an account) to track.
-
BlueyHealer
boriskernov, banned yet still accessible.
-
br-m
<gan:skhron.org> Tor is a permissionless network, it's a miracle that it even works
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> Have to use bridge
-
BlueyHealer
...which is super eas
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> Boris no one is saying it does not get attacked. But thst does not mean its inherently broken
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> @hooftly:matrix.org: I2p why use Tor?
-
BlueyHealer
hooftly, yeah, that's the impression I got after reading about all such attacks.
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> Not only attack the nodes are backdoored
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> I remind you again check your circuit
-
br-m
<gan:skhron.org> Opennet bridges are getting blackholed often
-
br-m
<gan:skhron.org> also I host a bridge both over yggdrasil and i2p
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> Germany or Netherlands 100%
-
BlueyHealer
i2p is not supposed to be used for browsing clearnet, even if it can. Also it is very slow. And not usable with all software.
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> + Store and decrypt
-
BlueyHealer
gan, nice
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> No they arent lol
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> Show me code that shows its backdoored
-
br-m
<gan:skhron.org> @hooftly:matrix.org: Tor have pretty weak cryptography for its directories
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> @hooftly:matrix.org: I said nodes
-
BlueyHealer
Directories? Would read about that.
-
br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> The biggest and smart darknet admin say use i2p ditch Tor
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> so you mean spy nodes? Thats not a backdoor
-
BlueyHealer
boriskernov, what admin?
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> @boriskernov:matrix.org: No one uses I2P for dnm

br-m
<boriskernov:matrix.org> i2p force user to host node not accurate but since you forced to contribute no backdoor node

BlueyHealer
BTW I don't like Invidious links instead of YT ones because the instances take turns working and everyone prefers different ones.

<fungible.:matrix.org> tldw: they can decrypt traffic on their own nodes already and forcing nodes operators to decrypt traffic for them, if they dont comply is jail time

Like, if you were used as a hop for someone sketchy - they arrested exit node operators, is this one safe?

Not perfect =/= broken because it can still be fine for some threat models.

yea

<boriskernov:matrix.org> hooftly say Tor used by Intelligence Agency basically say perfect because that highest threat model

BlueyHealer
gan, not sure our jurisdiction is similar enough in that regard, need to read more. Not seen much on that topic.mm

But what about a non-highest threat model? Like me.

br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> dang.. well, was enjoying the discussions.. saj..
-
br-m
<ilha:matrix.org> What's the current estimate of percent of XMR hashrate controlled by Qubic?
-
br-m
<elongated:matrix.org> @ilha:matrix.org: 98
-
br-m
<elongated:matrix.org> Oh 0.98
-
br-m
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> hasnt been accurate with fake numbers before but doesnt seem bad at the moment
-
br-m
<ilha:matrix.org> Is qubic.org still doing selfish mining? Have they been able to do any large reorgs to the blockchain recently?
-
nioc
no and therefore no
-
br-m
<ilha:matrix.org> So qubic.org is now just doing normal mining and is a positive for Monero mining and helping to secure the blockchain? Is that right?
-
br-m
<gingeropolous> thats one way of putting it
-
DataHoarder
Positive less so
-
DataHoarder
Their blocks don't include many transactions that benefit the users, due to their subpar mining
-
DataHoarder
They also keep breaking down and getting miners stuck mining useless work
-
br-m
<gingeropolous> i assume the big miner must have moved back to supportxmr
-
br-m
<ilha:matrix.org> So Qubic is not doing normal mining but currently they are not as strong of a threat as they were a while back. Is that fair to say?
-
br-m
<albertlarsan68:albertlarsan.fr> They are "just" a buggy pool FWIU
-
br-m
<gingeropolous> id say its unknown how strong of a threat they are because its unknown how much HR they are willing to spin up
-
br-m
<ilha:matrix.org> Regarding the price runup in the past day or 2, were there any particular catalysts or was it just a random pump as is so often seen with digital assets?
-
br-m
<gingeropolous> dunno. seems like market cycling
-
br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> few weeks ago i remember doug asking his guests on the podcast if they tought the increase in price of zcash would also eventually flow into monero as well, guest was like "nah, aintnoway"

<hbs:matrix.org> @albertlarsan68:matrix.org: Instead of waiting for a proposal which will likely not come out of the blue, look at monero related repos (cuprate, monero-oxide, ...) for issues to which you could contribute, that is probably the best way to start working on "Monero opportunities"

hi guys, any idea why sweep_all won't actually move all my balance to another wallet? or am I misunderstanding what sweep_all is supposed to do?

chymera it should work. Do you see an error message? Resync wallet from 0 using a working node will fix it

Or are you asking about some dust left behind?

br-m
<fungible.:matrix.org> o/
-
br-m
<eddie:oblak.be> Totally agree with this,
libroot.org/posts/getmoneroorg-should-move-beyond-cloudflare . Even though there's nothing wrong with a little bit of cloudflare, more diversity is better for the internet.
-
br-m
<eddie:oblak.be> Also I pointed out a while ago is that the origin IPs of the server are leaked through sloppy email configuration..
-
br-m
<gan:skhron.org> @eddie:oblak.be: non-issue, their website is only informational and doesn't handle logins from what I'm aware
-
br-m
<gan:skhron.org> and also skill issue, as they offer an onion
-
br-m
<eddie:oblak.be> not a non issue
-
br-m
<eddie:oblak.be> repo. and ccs. are on the same servers
-
br-m
<gan:skhron.org> if so, that's an issue indeed
-
br-m
<eddie:oblak.be> and informational websites can also give away metadata, so the initial commentary of libroot still makes sense, imho
-
br-m
<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> Not the same server as www.getmonero.com
-
br-m
<gan:skhron.org> @eddie:oblak.be: doesn't matter if the website on a globalnet, the U.S already can spy on the backbone itself
-
br-m
<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> Docs.getmonero.org is also a different server
-
br-m
<eddie:oblak.be> ok, I was wrong then
-
br-m
<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> Most of the subdomains are hosted by other ppl
-
br-m
<eddie:oblak.be> I have nothing against cloudflare persé, but I do think that if you are a project that strives for better privacy , it would make sense to be consistent and try do diversify a bit
-
br-m
<gan:skhron.org> I don't see an issue with having purely informational site on CF for the moment, they have no history with replacing the pages, while they can, sure, they don't do it
-
br-m
<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> its about stability and reliability, and cloudflare is a tradeoff to spending 10000/month of ddos and cdn
-
br-m
<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> @gan:skhron.org: All downloads are signed as well
-
br-m
<gan:skhron.org> and user truly concerned with privacy should use an overlay anyway
-
br-m
<gan:skhron.org> that'll be tor in that case
-
br-m
<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> We have onions for www.gm And docs.gm well
-
br-m
<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> Repo / gitlab onion was/is a pita so its not done. Ccs.gm doesnt have an onion for w/e reason
-
br-m
<gan:skhron.org> it's easy to say that it's not needed and so on, until a person would have an experience with being DDOS'ed
-
br-m
<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> Gm has constant ddos issues
-
br-m
<gan:skhron.org> That being said, eddie probably know that I'm not exactly a fan of CF
-
br-m
<gan:skhron.org> and I see them as an extension of the PRISM program
-
br-m
<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> None of us are
-
br-m
<prime:heyadora.com> What have you done to me xd
-
br-m
-
br-m

<prime:heyadora.com> I don't even use Discord xD
