Monero

Hey folks, I finally got around to setting up [an extremely ugly, but nevertheless working] pipeline to automatically build Mysu (it only builds arm64 images for now, so they might not work if you have a very old phone. This probably shouldn't affect many people, but if it does affect you and you would like to test Mysu - please let me know).
Testing and feedback is welcome :)

Don't be a one trick pony in your opt-out strategy. Diversify!

Why hasn't someone built an XMR web-miner that is first & foremost made to replace captchas & reduce spam while also generating revenue?

I imagine the profit potential would be quite high for anyone who could implement their own solution & maybe like XMRig have a default donation value to get paid for creating thing.

It would be amazing if as a website owner I could have set difficulties to preform certain tasks & the server could send users work units for users to complete, obviously at a much lower difficulty but if they manage to actually complete the work or get a correct hash then it could be designed to automatically send that back. Increased revenue (maybe enough to replace ads), less spam, & no captchas for users, everyone would win & all this extra mining would increase the security of the Monero network.

Is there an obvious reason I'm not seeing as to why this hasn't been done?

maybe with her just lying on the bed with knees a bit bent and her moving her upper foot up and down casually?

or something else.

I don't know if this is true, but it doesn't look good for Jeff.

I have been working on a feather wallet plugin to be able to simply perform xmr<->btc atomic swaps using the inbuilt feather GUI. It is very straightforward to use but I would still recommend reading this quick blog post on how atomic swaps work if you don't know so you understand what is going on behind the scenes.

This is also only the second release so there may still be some minor bugs in it, if you find any please post an issue on the github.

Privacy as the Top On-Chain Alpha w/ Rafael LaVerde (MT 325)

TODAY'S 🎙SHOW:Douglas Tuman interviews Rafael Laverde of the Crypto Vigilante to discuss Monero's role in the evolving crypto landscape.

They dive into Bitcoin's loss of fungibility and the increasing programmability that makes it less private, contrasting it with Monero’s strong privacy features. The conversation explores how Monero is not only essential for anonymous transactions but also positioned as a better store of value.

They also highlight Monero’s potential to drive a parallel economy, free from state surveillance, and predict its growing importance for businesses.

Is Monero traceable? And why scaling matters for privacy w/ Francisco Cabanas (ArticMine) (MT 324)

TODAY'S 🎙SHOW: Douglas Tuman interviews ArticMine, a monero core team member and well known Monero contributor specializing in scaling and a blockchain surveillance expert.

They dive into the traceability of Monero, discussing recent events around leaked Chainalysis videos. They explore how privacy features such as ring signatures, stealth addresses, and confidential transactions safeguard Monero users from blockchain surveillance.

The conversation also covers the implementation of Dandelion technology, which further protects user privacy by obscuring IP addresses. Throughout, they emphasize the strengths of Monero's privacy model while addressing common misconceptions about its traceability.

Hello,

To recap Sigmanero.org is a website where you can make bets with other anonymous users with monero using multisig wallets to safeguard your funds.

Changes since August:

• now you can place a bet and leave the website. If the bet is matched, both you and the counterparty login at a pre-agreed time to complete the multisig wallet.

• the time to set up the multisig is set by whoever offers the bet and this set up time will be clear to who is accepting the bet.

• Besides sports, we added new Prediction Markets. You can place bets on the next US president -- let us know what other prediction markets you would like to see!

• for users that won bets but lost their seed keys, we added the option to request a bet refund. We ask the counterparty to sign a transfer with a refund of the original amounts to both parties -- no guarantee the counterparty will sign the transfer, but worth a try if you really lost your seed key!

Feedback always welcome!

I love that she said the community is "deeply committed to the principles of privacy and security" at 4 min 30 seconds.

@rottenwheel@lemmy.zip brought up the issue of using samourai wallet nodes in Mysu.

I agree that samourai wallet nodes should be removed, but I'm wondering which other nodes we should (and more importantly should not) use by default?
Should I just copy random nodes with good uptime history from https://monero.fail/, or is there some consensus in the community about some nodes being a little bit more trustworthy, e.g. due to being run by trusted community members?
Anyway, here is the list of the current default nodes: https://codeberg.org/anoncontributorxmr/mysu/src/branch/master/app/src/main/java/net/mynero/wallet/data/DefaultNodes.kt, your feedback is welcome.

Hey, guys. I started using monero not so long ago, but I often need to swap SOL, BTC, ETH to Monero and vice versa. Could you recommend services where I can do it with protecting my anonymity, coz it's different blockchains?
