<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> snake: for fiat > xmr?
-
br-m
<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> A cex will charging close to or potentially more than that. Idk why ppl act like you can swap fiat -> xmr on a vex @ spot price, theres always a premium

<dufebo98> Who is behind HyperWagyu? His Wrapped Monero (XMR1) on Hyperliquid now ranks #4 in volume – any rug pull concerns?
-
Cindy_
yes i have a concern
-
Cindy_
why are you shilling
-
Infinity8
I'm having a lot more blocks from my monerod client compared to usual. Would adding these to my blocklist.txt be much off a loss?

Cindy_
but if you're not affliated with this hyperwagyu guy
-
Cindy_
wrapped XMRs are 100% always a scam

<hooftly:matrix.org> Centralized order book that can be rugged at anytime
-
Cindy_
lol not only that
-
Cindy_
monero's chain is incompatible, so there is no way to actually make a decentralized wrapped token of XMR
-
Cindy_
someone has to be holding the XMR
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> you can but it requires it own validator set (think serai) and network
-
Cindy_
hooftly: serai relies on stakes
-
Cindy_
like people holding liquidity hold money as collateral
-
Cindy_
the problem with these wrapped XMR tokens, is that there is no collateral, no accountability
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> How do you thinl XMR will trade? It issues a wrapped version
-
Cindy_
yeah but what liquidity is backing up against that wraped token?
-
Cindy_
they don't even need to rugpull the wrapped token, they can rugpull the underlying supply
-
Cindy_
and the wrapped token becomes worthless
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> wrapped does not imply un collateralized thats all in the syestem you decide to build. Disclaimer: i attempted a version once upon a time and started working with a custodian but they delisted XMR and it died.
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> Bitgos WBTC is fully collateralized but they are also fully compliant and regulated.
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> That being said from ehat I can see this version is just some dude saying trust me bro. It will probably end bad

Cindy_
imagine a water reservoir underneath a city, you can sell off the city, but people are most likely to notice that
-
Cindy_
but you can sell off the underground water reserve under the city to some rich tech bro guy
-
Cindy_
the city will collapse on its own
-
Cindy_
hooftly: yes i know it doesn't imply uncollateralized
-
Cindy_
but i'm talking about most wrapped XMR implementations
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> and Im not disagreeing. Only stating its possible in a centralized and decentralized manner. Just not easy in both cases
-
Cindy_
it's all about trust in the end
-
riceandbeans
i dont trust any wrapped assets
-
Infinity8
Wrapped assets seems like an attempt to de-anonymize transaction by luring the user in with potential profit
-
br-m
<hooftly:matrix.org> Infinity8: This same outcome occurs using a CEX just saying...

br-m: You say that as though I can still buy through CEX ^_^

<milas900:matrix.org> What are security risks if we expose node to public ?
-
Cindy
not much if you enable restricted RPC
-
Cindy
but an example of an attack that could happen on unrestricted RPC, is a DoS attempt by making a transaction with tons and tons of outputs associated

<deepzy99:matrix.org> Should anyone use this hyperwagyu to buy?
-
Cindy
no

<321bob321> @kowalabearhugs_: Maybe someone ping Doug
-
Cindy
who are these people asking about hyperwagyu
-
Cindy
while i can't even a single search result
-
Cindy
i highly doubt that these people just stumbled upon whatever stuff out of nowhere

<spvce:spvcer3ii.space> Cindy: Perhaps its a scam?
-
br-m
<spvce:spvcer3ii.space> Not really sure, but I'll probably look into it myself. Looks like a scam to me.
