<boog900> hmmm it should have used it

<boog900> what did it say when you did Proxy="Tor"

<shortwavesurfer2009> I will check again just to be sure.

<shortwavesurfer2009> @boog900: It just wasn't connecting at all, but then again at that point I might have had both IPv4 and IPv6 disabled So I need to make sure

<shortwavesurfer2009> The problem may have existed between chair and keyboard.

<boog900> :)

<shortwavesurfer2009> No dice.

<shortwavesurfer2009> Net{zone=ClearnlNet"}:connect_to_random_seeds: failed to connect to seed node [ipv4addr}

<shortwavesurfer2009> Maybe its trying to use arti but tor daemon is already running on system

<shortwavesurfer2009> Oh, I did miss part of the message though. At the end it says...

<shortwavesurfer2009> I/o proxy server unavailable

<shortwavesurfer2009> I/o error: Proxy server unreachable

<boog900> It's trying Tor

<boog900> if it was using Arti you would see loads of arti logs

<shortwavesurfer2009> Weird

<shortwavesurfer2009> Also doesnt work if i set

<shortwavesurfer2009> proxy = "socks5://[::1]:9050

<shortwavesurfer2009> Does cuprate support pruned nodes? Thats how i have monerod set

<boog900> not yet

<shortwavesurfer2009> If it does, then ZMQ would be the only thing standing in my way of possibly using it as my primary node.

<boog900> it is being worked on

<boog900> We are smaller though (both at full and we will be when we do pruning too)

<shortwavesurfer2009> I need to run pruned because my SSD is only 250 gig

<shortwavesurfer2009> So yeah, once pruning and zmq are there, I think I will be able to use cuprate.

<shortwavesurfer2009> Absolutely fantastic work, I must say.

<boog900> it'll fit on that now :)

<boog900> @shortwavesurfer2009: thanks 🙏

<shortwavesurfer2009> @boog900: In that case zmq for p2pool is all i need

<shortwavesurfer2009> Will keep an eye on the releases

can I use monero-wallet-cli with a public node to send money anonymously? just do it through vpn + tor ? I'm currently running monerod but is sending through my own monero daemon without any vpn or tor anonymous? I worry the initial transaction can be traced? or am I paranoid. Like if a company was running many nodes and recording transaction IPs. AI giving me slop different answers each one

<pw:xmr.mx> if you're already running your own node with monerod why not just add --tx-proxy=tor,127.0.0.1:9050

<pw:xmr.mx> it syncs blocks via clear net but tx's via Tor.

<simplegoodboy:matrix.org> Hi! Can I change Monero to usd (paypal for example)?

<rbrunner7> @simplegoodboy:matrix.org: You may try retoswap.com

<milas900:matrix.org> Hello, how ai can help me to build project to trade xmr? Is this doable ?

<pw:xmr.mx> ask ai.

:)

<aadniz:kantan.cat> Yeah, like @rbrunner7:monero.social said, you can use Retoswap. More common is to transfer it directly to the bank. PayPal is available but is discouraged to use > <@simplegoodboy:matrix.org> Hi! Can I change Monero to usd (paypal for example)?

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> what about my bank account transfer it directly to monero in Retoswap is that possible? @aadniz:kantan.cat

<aadniz:kantan.cat> It works both ways

<aadniz:kantan.cat> The catch is that the seller and the buyer put in a deposit before the transaction, then the deposit is released after the transaction is done

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> ok but hmm one question, what is bank transaction look like?? cause i dont wanna get in trouble if the bank transaction history it say monero you know this bank can control by FBI government and the FBI will find out about monero... i ain't stupid lol @aadniz:kantan.cat

<aadniz:kantan.cat> You'll be trading with individuals, so you would do a SEPA transaction to them directly for example

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> @aadniz:kantan.cat: yeah but i need to know what transaction look like, that all

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> like website retoswap history or something

<aadniz:kantan.cat> I don't think they put in a description on the payment

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> i wanna see it that all 😅

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> oh ok well

<aadniz:kantan.cat> If you want to do SEPA transfer, then they/you need the full name, IBAN, BIC, country and currency

<aadniz:kantan.cat> There is no description

<aadniz:kantan.cat> So if you're kind of paranoid, maybe the seller/buyer could give this information to someone? But why would they?

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> @aadniz:kantan.cat: this is sound like KYC 😓😣 i dont like it at all NO KYC 🙅‍♂️🚫

<aadniz:kantan.cat> Yep, so then you can do just pure crypto transfer instead, they have support for that too

<aadniz:kantan.cat> Trading BTC for XMR for example

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> @aadniz:kantan.cat: oh really, like can deposit to monero?

<aadniz:kantan.cat> Yes, again it works both ways lol

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> @aadniz:kantan.cat: yea, i want deposit to monero

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> in retoswap right?

<aadniz:kantan.cat> Yes, you can download the client here: retoswap.com

<aadniz:kantan.cat> @orbit_eyes:matrix.org: You gotta be a bit more specific, what do you mean by deposit to monero?

<aadniz:kantan.cat> Like, to sell BTC and buy XMR, then send it to your own wallet?

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> @aadniz:kantan.cat: i already did that download like couple months ago

<aadniz:kantan.cat> If you want to do trades with fiat money, then they usually always involve some name you need to put in. I have only tried Bank transfer so I don't know how the other methods work

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> @aadniz:kantan.cat: deposit to monero mean buy XMR to my wallet address

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> @aadniz:kantan.cat: can be both like debit card and credit card too??

<aadniz:kantan.cat> Here is the current stats for the different payment methods you can use

<aadniz:kantan.cat> mrelay.p2pool.observer/m/kantan.cat/oARNOkbbCTfnEANtgFEQpqTH.png (image.png)

<aadniz:kantan.cat> If you do a bank transfer, you don't even involve any credit card or debit card..

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> @aadniz:kantan.cat: i see that, make sense

<aadniz:kantan.cat> Which is why they need a name etc..

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> so can bank transfer like thousand dollars?? or what is limited?

<aadniz:kantan.cat> It's limited by what the seller/buyer are able to send/sell. Some offers go as high as 5000 dollars

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> @aadniz:kantan.cat: alright nice, not bad

<aadniz:kantan.cat> It is a bit confusing at first, but it's really cool when you get the hang of it

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> @aadniz:kantan.cat: cool, i perfer using retoswap in computer

<orbit_eyes:matrix.org> well maybe someday i will try that
