slowly.

There's is no way to do it quickly unless you have access to a jurisdiction with liquidity and no cap gains tax.

and if you find one, everyone wants to know where it is.


lol
it was rhetorical.

The sudden takedown of Samourai and the Whirlpool coordinator largely destroyed Bitcoin privacy overnight.

Its more fragile than people realize.


Which is why I harp on the privacy issue.
Are people actually prepared to operate in hostile regulatory environments?


you know you can just send people bitcoin right?
you dont need a closed source app to do that.


A FOSS podcast app?


works surprisingly well right?!


do you use Accrecent too?


and behind a VPN/TOR?
we don't want to make them feel obligated to block IPs


I never got NWC to work right either.
Now I just manually approve them in minibits


I was never able to get Zeus to work and never cared enough to screw around with it.

Phoenix is fine for me, Ive never had more that 50 USD eqiv in LN without settling to the chain or flipping onto Monero.


thats what I mean. because it's ecash the user doesn't have to worry about routing or being online because the mint handles all the LN stuff on the back end.

they only have to have sporadic connectivity to make deposits/withdrawals.


We made all relays ignore your notes Eris.
as you expected, its a big conspiracy against you .


pretty sure LN is itself a settlement layer.

routing even medium size payments is too probe to failure ime.


Which completely does NOT respond to the point he was making.


Therefore, in terms of "fuck you" magnitudes,
the transaction that can't eventually be unwound back to the sender or receiver trace is the larger.

Its the same with speech
people will self-police what they say if it's public KYCed speech and they are likely to be eventually identified as the speaker.
But people will say what they like if they are confident it is anon.
For better or worse.

Likewise with transactions.


How can you be so confident?

i mean, given that 90% of utxos are already kyced and the anonset of the remainder only decreases?


broadcasting a private tx that Chainanal will never be able to correlate to IRL data?


yeah

I feel like it's that thing with pgp when you miss a - or something.
or accidentally also copy the LR after the final dash more likely

and it pukes on you


true
except CJs and Monero are more battle tested and already resilient. so barring extreme technical breakthroughs we have reasonable certainty they will continue to provide privacy.

which is NOT true of LN, where privacy guarantees are difficult to quantify, dependent on use-cases and poorly understood.

there isn't a whole hell of a lot anyone can do about a diffie-helman exchange ya know? its been around a while.


impressive that the Ashigaru wallet immediately triggered the "just use Lightning" bros


lose the Guy Fawkes mask until you're older


true true 👍

I'm all for improving BTC privacy and
as you say
its better than transparent on-chain txs.

but its also true that most mitigations are likely to be defeated as surveillance increases.
LN privacy is kinda like BTC in 2013. any "privacy" is mostly because nobody is looking.
ie, its not a battle-tested network yet.

and these "just use LN" morons are anti - intellectual and actively subverting people's privacy by saying there isn't a problem.


Probably ok if you just wwant to avoid dragnet surveillance.

definitely NOT OK if you have a sophisticated threat model.

not that these guys care about the difference... smh

you need to lose the Guy Fawkes mask.

https://www.voltage.cloud/blog/lightning-network-privacy-explainer


cause its horseshit.

LN isn't a privacy layer.


important point here,
*it does not*

wasabi is hot garbage.

well that might be putting it too strongly. but its extremely difficult to establish exactly how to be sure your inputs are not linked to your outputs with wasabi.


Only from the developers site at the moment.
So I'd say its to be decided if its trustworthy or not.


not all CJ are created equal. Zerolink is a particular specification.

Samourai fork!


No.

LN doesn't offer the user reliable, measurable privacy. quit trying to make it a privacy solution. LN is a scaling layer and was not designed to be private.

and nobody is selling the new wallet as a privacy solution. AFAIK there's no word on a new CJ coordinator or decentralized coordinator implementation.

LN is not a valid privacy solution for a number of reasons

ecash is a custodial shitcoin. and has bad anonset still.

there is no zerolink CJ implementation operating right now.

Cool story bro


Hate to break it to you,
but 12 yr olds are still children.

and often also presexual too.

and second, you haven't been talking AT ALL about providing and protecting,
the OP and this ENTIRE thread is about sexual exploitation.

Exploitation of a child without context to know any different.

Which is obviously your primary interest fucker.


All my Japanese friends send me messages whenever he hits a home run 😂


it is unclear here which one you are selling.


Horseshit.
Thinking that raping kids is wrong isn't feminism.
Its basic concern for others.

I don't know what mental hoops you jump through to think "I should be able to fuck children if I want" and tell yourself it contributes to the greater welfare,
but you can go fuck yourself.


See ya.
Have fun talking with the pedos about how old a woman should be to cook.


"I should be able to rape 12 year olds with their parents consent.
Its a legitimate sexual preference."

You're a pathetic human being who is only concerned with how to get your own desires met.
and no regard for the welfare of others.


the overall tone of your dialogue with them is not at all mocking.
its reasonable. which is what they want.

just accepting and entertaining discussion with pedos as if their sexual preference is ok is called "validation".

frankly it doesn't at all have the tone of just stirring up outrage for shits and giggles.
for example, his first defense was an appeal to normalcy. "I've talked about this before, what are you so mad about"
trolls will make tenuous but extreme arguments, not try and normalize.

they are seeking validation, not outrage.


you are nowhere near mocking enough.
and "she can't even cook ramen" isn't even mockery.
as if they cared about cooking.

also minus several thousand points for "they're not ONLY child predators. they also into targeting adult women!"


Woodness Goodness


which is besides the fucking point.
and your milquetoast responses make this seem like a legit sexual preference.

it isn't.


so the pedos call you a soyjack when you call them out...? 😂


dude
don't play it both ways
you already know she ain't 12.

either commit to your dysfunction or seek help.


Mullvad is good
and IVPN is also good.

why?
KYC free accounts and payments. 3rd party auditing.


STFU pervert

Almost every single female I know has some sexual problem from prior sexual abuses.
usually as a young women from (supposed) men who convinced them to trust.

yeah they weren't fucking killed.
it was still rape.

so you can gtfo with your moral equivocation.


"I always talk about being sexual predator online. please don't call out my indefensible behavior.
besides, other people said its OK."

you can GFY.
It is not normal or OK to target girls who cannot consent.

and its plainly obvious you dont give a shit whether they can or not.

get some fucking help.

Re the leaked Monero Chainanal video,
The presentation was extremely light of details on heuristics CA uses to eliminate decoys.
Rucknium had this to say about it:

"In their case study, a large consolidation transaction was helpful to Chainalysis to generate a hypothesis of which ring members were the real spend. They had information about transaction outputs sent by a single coin swapper, MorphSwap. Large consolidations are known to be risky with ring signatures when an adversary has a large amount of information about which outputs a single user owns. Chainalysis basically performs an Eve-Alice-EVE (EAE) attack, an attack that the Monero Research Lab has theorized. Chainalysis use the consolidation transaction for the first leg of the attack and then the IP address gathered by a malicious remote Monero node for the second leg."


oh I see.
please take care of yourself.

I have only added 21mint.me and I just did that for fun. because why not?

Amethyst asked the 1st time I hit the zap button and now minibits pops up and asks for confirmation when I send

And you need to put your minibits address into your Amethyst profile as LN address to receive. Sometime they seem to take a while to actually arrive.


I like the minibits wallet with Amethyst.
I have to manually approve each zap in the wallet however.

yooo


I couldn't get Zeus to work
although I didn't try very hard

I just installed minibits and received my first (and only!) zap

I know you can zap *from Phoenix
but of course receiving is the hard part

doing ecash and letting the mints take care of fucking around with LN makes a lot of sense to me.


gotcha.

yeah I still use Phoenix via VPN,
the privacy tradeoffs are fine with me because I have only a very small stack on LN and its all noKYC

for custodial solutions ecash built on LN makes the most sense to me.

if LN is actually successful i think its also going to be a settlement layer


afaik you either run a node or have a custodian.
or Phoenix wallet.

but its always been this way.
not sure what you mean about Samourai.


I feel ya
but I'm also using Amber and have ecash zaps now

I'd prefer Monero but I'm also pragmatic.


that's great.

can you explain how I can measure the amount of entropy gained by a specific wasabi CJ?

assuming they'll stop reusing addresses any day now.


until its a current fork of Amethyst
that someone is actively showing interest in maintaining
I dont think its going anywhere anyway

what kind of router is this?

I have a little cellular one access point...
or is yours something more serious?


i generally put Matt in a different category but I'm done with the nostr and LN shilling.
it always looks like a revolution at the epicenter.

BREAKING!
Here is the leaked ChainAnalysis video about tracing Monero.

This is important to grok.
Remember they can see the # of inputs and outputs and the fees you pay.

of course
interacting with unknown nodes and exchange services is always risk.
Use a trusted node if you are concerned about targeted surveillance.

I'd like more information about heuristics used to eliminate decoys. In this presentation he glosses over it and picks a tx they already have confidence in.

https://nyxmr.top/archive/videos/crypto/chainalysis_XMR.mp4


yeah, but still
there's been a lot more influencer noise and less actionable content

Matt's a good dude
but hes created a situation where his Incentives are fucked up.


So I did a thing.
All network traffic goes out the router to a Mullvad server by default

and *then* to a IVPN server or two 😂 https://image.nostr.build/5e8b02fb13c347d09e30766e8e73f04f163c0107d0ad860d30dbbb8f67134e20.jpg


She said she was going to take a step back... 😟


This is a better approach bro


because the relays still are dealing with spam?

or because they just change the reply text and keep going?


does anyone understand the steps in setting up a wireguard VPN on your router (pfsense)?

I am networkedly retarded.

God save the firefighters 🙏

we've had a pretty quiet year
so far.


as homeboy is pointing out on the other thread there is nuance,
because an exchanges order book doesnt *necessarily* follow the USD price

but since it does in fact follow the USD price
like absolutely always,
(because if they DONT follow USD price its an opportunity for traders and they jump in until it swings back)

Exchange charts are de facto USD denominated.


no you're right, they don't.
I was oversimplifing.
You're being specific and I appreciate that.

but however you slice it,
the order book is following the USD price of the asset 99.9999% of the time.

so while I acknowledge there's nuance,
the charts are de facto USD denominated.


you are welcome to do whatever you like.

your chart however, is denominated in USD.


it's true that DEXs are where BTC is going to become a UoA first. in exactly the way you suggest 👍
and other p2p markets denominated in BTC will help

but CEXs are still mostly the way I describe it. and your bid/ask etc still basically follows the USD price of the other asset.
in almost ALL cases.


getting closer...

my argument is that we measure relative value with the dominant UoA.
which is USD.

that stuff you shit on 90% of the time but want to wave in XMR bros face when it suits you.


THE POINT IS THAT "BTC" IS THE FIAT USD DENOMINATED VALUE OF "BTC"

prove me wrong.


while you are correct that algebraically it cancels out,
the reason I make the argument this way is because the chart is ALREADY usd denominated.

the BTC value is (BTC/USD)
the XMR value is (XMR/USD)

you are still using fiat equivalence to measure them against each other.

while you are correct, you could use anything
exchange charts use USD.


and frankly man
you're still measuring in USD when you translate the price (in USD) of a house or car into bitcoin.

still fiat denominated.

this continues until it is an actual UoA and MoE. that is to say, that prices are set in BTC.


none of these charts are using BTC or XMR as unit of account.
none of them.

nobody does. until these things are used as MoE and prices are denominated in BTC that isn't a thing.

when homeboy says he denominates large purchases in BTC, it means he sees a house price and says "thats 10 BTC."
iow, it comes back to USD
until the house is priced, marketed and sold for BTC.

so no,
you are wrong. and it matters.

THERE ARE NO BITCOIN DENOMINATED CHARTS


nobody said that.
like ever.
not even remotely.

i guess its understandable that

lacking any actual logical response,

you've gone for the "misinterpreted strawman quoted to my own followers" method of argumentation.

weak.


the point is that BTC denominator is actually (BTC/USD)

and the only reason I harp on this is because maxis trash fiat as an arbitrary UoA 90% of the time,
then whip out a USD denominated chart when it suits them.

the intellectual dishonesty bothers me.


like everything else.

b for some reason you called out monero in particular.
there's no specific reason monero is more of an opsec concern. quite the opposite.


you are welcome to measure with whatever you like.

these charts however,
are measuring in USD.


Okay, point taken.
But your unit of account is still the USD. Exactly what do you think you're measuring these things in anyway?

iow, they are USD denominated.
You are comparing relative fiat "value."


i know critical thinking isnt a maxi strong point,
but the hard truth is that:

as long as the unit of account is USD,
there are no BTC denominated charts.


the chart you shared is

(XMR/USD)/(BTC/USD)
which is USD denominated by definition.

Im sorry you don't understand what words mean.


as measured in what?

come on, you'll get there son. don't stop now.

or maybe you're saying the function:
(XMR/USD)/(BTC/USD)

ISN'T USD denominated?

i mean
its stupid thing to say,
but maybe you can't math.


they do not "cancel out" dude
i think you failed algebra

that chart is a graph of the relative USD price.
iow, it is USD denominated.


i literally showed my work dude

are you saying the chart you shared is NOT the graph of (BTC/USD)/(XMR/USD)?

cause I'd love to know how I'm wrong.


you got anything substantive to say?

hey glad you found the right thread.
sorry I hit a nerve

pro tip:
measuring from a particular starting point (ie the Samourai arrest) isnt what "cherry picking" is.
it's measuring from an event to perhaps establish a cause/effect relationship

"cherry picking" is what YOU did when you selected a chart from an arbitrary starting point because it fits your narrative and for no other reason.


JM is not a legitimate privacy solution for many reasons.
please don't advertise your ignorance in this fashion.

monero is not traceable bro.

its always good advice to avoid exchanges but the churning you recommend is basically unnecessary unless you think you might be under targeted surveillance and have leaked some off chain data (time of tx, exchange interaction etc)

none of the examples you give were due to monero being traced. they were all either interaction with bitcoin or an exchange.


A few years ago, SamouraiWallet & SamouraiDev appeared on the Dirtcoin Diaries podcast. TDev did a presentation on called "Bitcoin Fungibility: The Absolute State of It".

monero will not draw fiat degens and VC money to pump the price

I like Jack. He's basically my age and I'd like to think I'd do good things with my USD too,
if I had any.

But now look,
I don't think either of them are "brave" for being on nostr/criticizing Twitter.
Come on, you've both got an army of ready-made simps on here.

Bravery isn't deciding not to monetize every platform as much as possible. You have to actually take a chance.


I doubt that's correct.
Basically nobody in the bitcoin community these days is talking about strong privacy.

Even if there was a L2 or whatever built extremely well, if there was any friction at all nobody would use it.
ie, Liquid.

and protocol level privacy will never happen.

so, as things stand right now, the options are either
a useless sidechain,
or a futile discussion about a substantive change to the protocol.

and since privacy is necessary for censorship resistance, its hard to see a path for bitcoin to succeed.


the problem with active geological areas is that they usually unstable. if your hotspot disappears (or erupts) your infrastructure is useless.
which is why hot granite is the geothermal ideal, not active volcanos.

so closed source wallets are also cool because they are on an open protocol?
do you know what point you are making?

when you stream sats from fountain you are simply directing the bank to send them. they check your balance, take their transaction fee and send the sats from wherever.
they could do exactly the same thing except FOSS. but they want to leverage state violence to protect their business.

FOSS is important because it protects users and encourages the free development of ideas. among other reasons.

off the top of my head I can't think of any closed source software I have installed anywhere.


anybody can build a closed source custodial bank dude

Howl's Moving Castle too 😀

They're all just so...

yeah that is a thorough writeup.

point is, the most important thing is stable predicable monetary policy.
not a fixed limit on issuance.

although it makes good memes.


monero's rate of supply inflation is lower than golds.
so the "infinite supply" fud doesn't hold water.

a hard cap is a stupid knee jerk reaction to fiat insanity. understandable but not actually good monetary policy.

If you've been following me on Twitter, i have the goal of becoming a blacksmith for #monero. With the generous help of the Monero community, i was able to buy a blacksmithing anvil. I'm so grateful to this community for helping me get 1 step closer to realising my dream.
While i really hate asking for help, especially financial help, im not able to realise this dream because the electric blower i was using for my forge had finally blown a circuit-connection and fried its internals. So if you'd like to help an aspiring blacksmith with his goal, please donate to my #Kuno fundraiser so i can buy a hand-crank blower for my forge. This will allow me to replace the broken one, and it will allow me to blacksmith even when my power goes out due to storms and flooding. Thank you

of course, this is just gambling that more Blackrock and other fiat degens are going to ape into BTC and pump your bags.

which is probably a better gamble than monero because Bitcoin will seek regulatory acceptance and Monero won't.


I think that's a reasonable placement of trust.

but since it is truly freedom money,
it is unlikely to be adopted by VC, regulators and fiat degens.
so as you say, it might not have BTCs NGU properties.


fair enough


it's not really debatable.
flipping fixed amounts into XMR for spending is vulnerable to timing analysis.

having a stack thst is occasionally spent from/topped up is not.


flipping in and out is an opsec risk.
its better to just have a stack you sit on and top up occasionally.


Sorry bro
i know the truth hurts.

but you are measuring "value" in USD.


you're already made a UoA error in this thread son.

BTC is "holding value" relative to USD and its only up because of fiat degen speculation.
so just take chillpill cowboy.

I think their point is basically that since he is the Son of God he transcends his ethnic and cultural heritage. Everyone who believes in Him joins the *new covenant of God but those who don't remain with the old.
In this case they remain Jewish or gentile.

While those who believe partake of the Eternal.

it's pedantic in the end.


yeah pretty sure this is just pedantry

the fact that most Jews didn't accept the new covenant doesn't make Jesus not Jewish.

https://github.com/MrCyjaneK/unnamed_monero_wallet

isn't ready for primetime yet.
getting it to sync has become a pain in the ass


because publicly advocating for privacy associates one with criminality?

i mean, right?


What lineage is this?


They are direct p2p through whatever server or network they use and have some groupchat implementation. But it's one server or one particular network.
So you need an invite to chat with a counterparty or get into the group.

With matrix or xmpp, anyone can spin up a server and many servers are connected. you can start a groupchat or room, list it and someone on a different server somewhere can connect.

Simplex tries to solve this by having a centralized directory service you can be listed on, maybe Session has one too?

Anyway
there are like a million different chat apps these days and they all have their tradeoffs vis a vis usability, discoverability and scalability...


Signal, Session and Simplex aren't federated and therefore don't have good discoverability.

Matrix and XMPP are, so they are more likely to be similar Telegram type replacements.

If thats really going to be a thing. I never cared for Telegram personally.


My guy takes BTC (on coinbase 😬) but I have to drive about 150mi to get my 1/2 beef.

But hey whatcha gonna do?


Literally nobody is suggesting otherwise.


OK bro


As I said
she never transmitted anything

She didn't have to contact me at all.


As opposed to?
Lol

Feeling like you've got a bad case of confirmation bias here.

You're right, all pros have no sense of social responsibility 👍


As has been mentioned
professional women usually get tested at regular intervals.

I assume she had sex with me shortly prior to one of those tests.

but who knows
maybe she fucked me and felt bad because she already knew...
could be.

Either way, I never caught anything.


You make all your hubby's hobbies your own?
Accompany him whenever he leaves?
No. nobody does.

You learn to leave your person space for their own personal activities.

Its not complicated.


How many relays can they really be running?
Pretty sure oxen is the only group running any. Their financial model depended strictly on a token to incentivize people to run nodes and I feel like that went nowhere.
Also, while they once had Signal forward secrecy, they quit using it for some reason. Dunno why. So messages *could be decrypted if they run a mitm attack and end up getting access to the keys.

Its just kinda weird.
Probably fine for low threat models but I'd stick with OTR or OMEMO over XMPP or Simplex if you're concerned about targeted surveillance.


You don't need to explain it.
She messaged so I could get tested.
Happened twice.

ain't nobody looking for comforting in these situations.

While it's true most prostitutes are down on their luck, it doesn't necessarily translate into irresponsibility. Some will let you know an issue out of professional courtesy.


Generally wives know when to leave  playthings to their men.

Good luck with your nostr and everything else you're playing with
kinda attitude


Huh?

Yeah thats why she messaged...?


I've had girls message when they've tested positive for something

so it happens


Hey with all the talk about the danger of automatic updates right?

Why are updates basically mandatory on Graphene? Damn thing is downloading an update like every week and there's zero option to wait and see.

Its possible that noKYC is not enough and complete transparency is not bitcoins final form.


"The solarpunk mindset is essentially optimistic. Transparency in solarpunk systems is the spirit of optimism projected outwards. By building transparent systems the solarpunk says, I have faith the law won't turn against me.
It's insistence on optimism prevents it from preparing for a worst case scenario.

This is the core of solarpink fragility."

From the manifesto

"Decades ago, cypherpunks foresaw the rise of censorship and surveillance. They understood that cryptography and economic sovereignity were necessary to ensure freedom. Bitcoin created an economy outside of financial hegemony and made it possible for people to regain agency.

Today that is no longer enough."

I have serious doubt about the scaling ability of nostr JUST as a Twitter replacement.
I don't think its possible its going to replace *All the Things* and remain decentralized.

Still too expensive.
Find a beef initiative supplier that will ship to you and takes bitcoin.
Buy 1/4 beef if you don't have a big freezer.

Get your beef cost down below 10 USD per pound equiv.

You can get it down to 6-7 USD if you have a freezer and can do larger quantities.


Article here that describes how targeted surveillance can work.

In short, even if you're on tails and have otherwise good opsec,
you're probably not going to last very long against a persistent, well funded adversary.

The point about holding purchasing power is just there because he quoted it. Amazing how fast maxis go there now that BTC is back at 60k.

There real point is just about the misunderstanding they make regarding UoA.

There are no Bitcoin denominated charts. Not as long as we are on a USD standard.

So they think they're making some poignant point about relative value.
When really they're just demonstrating how little they understand whst is being measured and how stuck in fiat thinking they are.

The actual point made with this chart is just "we've attracted 100x the fiat degen speculation"

Like
that's not the flex you think it is bro


ab2 exit scammed.

That was all just talk to differentiate them from ab1 and build community trust.


Every monero shill worth a damn can criticize moneros tradeoffs as well as they can criticize bitcoins.

The only problem I had
 if you connect to your own node during initial setup
there's no way to change your node or check your node configuration.
Just a UI problem.

If you connect to the default nodes at setup,
you can then change to whatever and it works as expected.


Time for some hard truth.

When the UoA is USD,
there are no Bitcoin denominated charts.

I know it says "BTC" in it,
but that's a fiat chart bro. Sorry.


Pointing out that currency opsec is just an aspect of the greater opsec picture,
doesn't excuse you from explaining yourself when you assert bitcoin is fine and monero is  unnecessary.

But you don't really have anything to say about it at all, do you?


Also keeny aware of the exchange rate

because I flipped BTC to get twice as much XMR as I could have gotten last year.


so insightful

And I'm pointing out what you actually are saying is "the USD value of one Monero has remained constant but the USD value of BTC has DOUBLED "
because the yardstick you are using to measure is US Dollars.
Something yall call trash the rest of the time.

But a measurement you love to gloat over when it suits your narrative.
Like I said, weird flex for supposed freedom money but whatever.


omg
never mind dude

have fun


Look this isn't hard

That is the USD PRICE OF BITCOIN.

(XMR/USD)/(BTC/USD) is USD denominated.
Obviously.

Its retarded y'all wave that around when you like but spend thw rest of your time shitting on fiat.

What that chart measures is *relative* speculative investment. Mostly by VC and fiat institutional degens.
So cool, BTC has attracted that crowd and you get off on your increased fiat-equiivalent purchasing power.

Kinda weird flex for supposed "freedom money" but I'm used to it.

blah blah

Put up or shut up


Monero been around 150 for like three years now bro. I got in under 60 USD so feeling pretty good about it.

And you still haven't provided any actual information about the supposed invincible opsec possibilities on bitcoin.

Just "trust me bro"


Monero offers *good* default privacy guarantees.
There are technologies that protect sender, receiver and amount. Understanding those, users can make decisions.

Its homeslice here who's claiming easy opsec on a transparent chain "because liquid exists"


I call bullshit

Nobody with dnm experience is washing through liquid. Liquid is a fucking wasteland.
Anonset of 1.


StartOS isn't a simple node package
Its designed to be a home server.


Prediction
There's no clear answer.


Ok
Sending from a dnm will get you flagged so what's the proper way to wash your payout these days?


This is a fundamental misunderstanding.

This is a FIAT chart.

The FIAT value of btc is near ath due to speculation by VC and institutional degens.

You are measuring relative *speculative investment* and gloating over it.
This is a stupid mistake for a supposed bitcoiner to make.


This is a correct opinion.

But sesame oil and salt is better.

Can you imagine training for years and *finally reaching the top of your sport,

only to be jeered at by the very-online and used as a political expedient based on your appearance?

Um

"dude looks like a chick lol"
Isn't particularly funny.
And its contributing to culture war idiocy as if it were true.

Nothing about this story is suggesting men should be treated as women.
Except among very-online outrage merchants.


sigh

This is likely a Russian psyop.
Nobody is arguing biological makes should compete in women's sports.


Sorry but this is a psyop.

Literally no one is asserting the Algerian was born male.

It's just more culture war outrage bs.

No. Their concerns are not valid.

They are thugs, organized gangs seeking to assert and expand their influence through force.

Your "terror financing" is the bookkeeping of rival gangs
and "money laundering" is the evasion of their extortion.

The emperor has no clothes.
The state is illegitimate.


Its also important to know how money functions. It is also a type of technology.


Did you know?
Anything that isn't bitcoin is garbage.

Because reasons.

(#1 reason being bitcoin maxis are super intelligent and understand money better than anyone. Just ask them)


There is nothing about monero that is a "closed ecosystem"
It is an open source community project. Auditable by anyone.


Good description. So yours is a docker installer.
What the 25/26 refer to though?


If you don't want to hodl I'd suggest just keeping a small stack that you use for payments.

Swapping in and out when you need to use it is vulnerable to timing analysis.

Depends on your threat model though.


Sure. he also powers his house.
Which only really requires maybe 50k of infra investment.


>Still some docker knowledge needed but I see consumer ready solution 25/26

What does this mean?

I've been thinking about throwing an Alby Hub up on a VPS but I dunno...
I don't have the time to get into something that requires a lot of setup or maintenance.


Remains to be seen.
Monero has a dynamic blocksize that helps avoid fee spikes during high usage.

But probably prohibitive for zap levels like you say.


Yeah
monero fees are low enough to do that.

And you can choose whether to publish a nostr event that reveals the sender or not.


Is that yours??
Pretty cool.

What install method did you use? Was it easy(ish)?

Running locally or on a VPS?


Use Garnet and send me Monero.

Stop embarrassing yourself.

Monero is PoW, fairly issued decentralized money with strong privacy guarantees and fixed issuance.

Confused why any real bitcoiner would have a problem with that.


OK
You don't know what the fuck you are talking about

The recipient published on chain is a one time stealth address.
The sender is a ring *of 16*.

Back to school son.


This is called seekong nuance and specificity.
Because "anonymity set" is not a homogeneous thing.

Welcome to the real world.
It's interesting, you might learn something.


Bye 👋


Sender anonymity?

Do you know what question you are asking?


I'm talking to the lurkers and scrollers, your response is not necessary.


Monero people understand the strengths and weaknesses of the tradeoffs Monero and Bitcoin make.

Anti intellectual maxipads don't understand anything but slogans and memes.

If you had a substantive argument you'd say it.
Instead you just repeat cute sound bites like a maxi drone.

So put up or GFY.


You're just a crowd follower repeating sound bites you heard somewhere because it makes you feel like you're one of the cool kids.

Not a bitcoiner. Just a sheep.
You don't know shit about cypherpunks or how bitcoin (and Monero) got to where they are now.

Keep studying son.


Sorry
but this lionization of DJT makes me want to vomit


Bitcoin could go to zero and people will still use Monero.

We are also autists.


Basically
"I get off on believing that in the future I will be the new 1% and you won't"

Pathetic 🤮


Agree that the ultimate solution is return to localism for sure 👍

But I'm afraid in the short term (next 100yrs or so) we're going to see authoritarian control over populations that don't have the skills to process and analyze the information they're fed.


Public Service Announcement

DJT doesn't care about you.


Monero and bitcoin are like peas in a pod. PoW decentralized money.

We troll maxis, not bitcoiners. we do it because they deny the problems with bitcoins tradeoffs even exist.
They are just cultists, not real bitcoiners.


Unfortunately what we are seeing is
since the advent of portable information tech,
a 24hr news cyxle becomes possible and the entire population is exposed to propaganda all the time.

I take your point about the pendulum cycles,
but there isn't really any precedent for this.


India and China already have draconian internet controls.

Long press on the tip button and you'll get a pop-up that allows to set amounts and what data you would like to reveal.

It happens privately anyway
its just the client publishes a nostr event if you want it to.


Generally people have their price and they stop attacking when they get their own cut.

Historically that's how it has gone.

But we'll see. Nothing to do but build and hope for the best anyway.


if there is *any jurisdiction that meaningfully opposes USD hemegony and offers legitimate useful alternatives,
there will be kinetic wars.

The regulatory arbitrage hopium often found in bitcoin is cool and all, to a certain extent legitimate.
But if you thing the invested power structure is just going to let y'all opt out because the mint is run in China or whenever, you don't know history.

We need online anonymous communities and good private key control. Both for spending * https://image.nostr.build/37c6fc09b528be791a38f781686974698dad785a576610c938b4d53286bcc466.jpg and proof of identity/reputation.


Concerned this is still underestimating their resolve.

If Russia or China tries to oppose USD hemegony in any meaningful way, there will be a kinetic war and it will not be good.


standard maxi bs

fud tools that actually get the job done in a decentralized permissionless way,

while rationalizing custodial solutions and regulatory capture on your pet chain.

Cool cool


If millennials and younger can't learn key control this whole experiment is fucked.

For a number of reasons,
money is one.

Proving identity without relying on the state is another.


this is one of those arenas where people really underestimate the "then they fight you" stage.

Fiat hegemony is global. They're not going to let a few pesky nerds provide other options just because they live in Romania.

Iow there a very few jurisdictions that will not bow down when threatened with exclusion from the current monetary system.

Like you indicate, its all going to come down to decentralized anonymous communities.
Everyone 40 and younger needs to learn key control and good online privacy habits.


Known community leaders are vulnerable to regulator pressure
as they are obviously money transmitters.

Except for rare sats, ordinals, coinjoined utxos

utxos with different histories are nonfungible by definition


Custodial bitcoin is a shitcoin


Samourai was the only Zerolink coinjoin implementation.

what information have you *personally verified that indicates speculative interest in BTC will increase in the short-term?


as I understand it
Acc is a app store designed from the ground up to ensure what is installed in what the developer made.
But since they compare app metadata to ensure this, they have an inrernal database and downside is they only support a couple apps.
There's a detailed explanation here
https://accrescent.app/features

But straight from the dev via Obtanium is great.
I just think a good app store for FOSS apps would be helpful.


The odds of a new tx generating the same stealth address are astronomically against.

Like the odds of a hash collision on btc.

if you're actually concerned about having private value transaction
LN does NOT do better than monero in 99.9% of ACTUAL current usage

maybe bolt12 gets widespread adoption, running your own node gets easier and the situation improves

but right now using LN is a shitty trust-based model


you can't stop lying can you?

you are using heuristic analysis, which is NOT a deterministic relationship.
your tool identfies the *likely true spend
at a certain (undefined) probability

and it does it no better than random chance
(but automatically! 🙄)

I suggest if you're actually interested in operating in good faith you prioritize telling the user the probability your heuristic analysis is accurate.
ie, the odds an old ouput decoy WOULD be used in a ring etc


this was preordained


sorry
forgot you lack the ability to process nuance.

but if you don't understand that the off-chain data your "tracing tool" relies on
may be attainable by the NSA when investigating certain individuals,
but be nonexistent in the VAST number of cases,

I can't really help.


I would be very interested to help out with this tool if you weren't using it pedantically to push your stupid agenda of FUDing the protections monero provides.

it's a block explorer.


The point is that SAs break the transaction graph, making tracing the flow of funds impossible.

1. each SA only appears for a single output
2. it's impossible to know which is the true spend


more lies lol

since you insist on acting like a 12 yr old I'll treat you like one

in the context of a cryptocurrency a "transaction tracing tool" would be able to identify the source, destination and amount of transactions.

random chance identifies the sender in "about 1 of 15 cases"
the recipient that is published on-chain is a one time stealth address. not useful for tracing since SAs break the transaction graph.
and amounts remain opaque.

additionally, if it takes "a considerable amount of off-chain information" to *actually use* NOBODY is tracing monero transactions.
Because that off-chain data generally doesn't exist.
(may be exceptions concerning individuals of interest targeted by 3 letter agencies. know your threat model)

this tool doesn't trace monero transactions, by definition.
it's a block explorer.

just let it be a block explorer and quit trying to use semantics to push inaccurate fud.
