Welcome to the Monero General, dedicated to the discussion of the world's leading decentralized P2P privacy cryptocurrency!

Monero is secure, low-fee, and fungible, meaning users can send XMR around the globe despite corrupt governments or broken financial systems. Innovative privacy features such as Ring Signatures, Stealth Addresses, and Ring CT ensure that Monero's blockchain is obfuscated -- In other words, the financial history of all Monero users is encrypted from the prying eyes of adversaries on a public blockchain, with transactions being visible only by a user willingly providing a view key.

Monero has also improved upon the scaling downsides of current popular cryptocurrencies. To avoid high fees, dynamic block size ensures that the size of the blocks will increase as the amount of transactions increases. Further, the mining network algorithm RandomX establishes that anybody with a CPU can participate in mining, preventing the ASIC miner domination that creates a high barrier to entry. Lastly, the mining network will be preserved by Tail Emission -- instead of the block reward falling to zero like with Bitcoin, the block reward gradually approached 0.6 XMR in June 2022, where it will forever stay. This constant linear inflation means the inflation rate will asymptotically go to zero while continuing to provide an incentive to miners to maintain the network.

If you still have questions, feel free to ask and a MoneroChad will be with you shortly.

>START MINING IN P2POOL

>START MINING IN P2POOL

P2Pool combines the advantages of pool and solo mining; you still fully control your Monero node and what it mines, but you get frequent payouts like on a regular pool.

P2Pool has no central server that can be shut down/blocked because it uses a separate blockchain to merge mine with Monero. There's no pool admin that can control what your hashrate is used for or decide who can mine on the pool and who can't. It's permissionless!

Decentralized pool mining (P2Pool) is pretty much the ultimate way to secure a PoW coin against 51% attacks. Once P2Pool reaches & maintains 51%+ of the total network hashrate, Monero will be essentially invulnerable to such attacks.

Although many inexperienced miners think that bigger pools give better profits, this is absolutely NOT the case. Your profits in the long run depend ONLY on your hashrate, NOT on the pool's hashrate.


>YOU CAN NOW MINE IN P2POOL FASTER & EASIER THAN EVER BEFORE WITH THE GUPAX GUI. USES TRUSTED REMOTE NODES BY DEFAULT!!!!

1. Download the *bundled* version of Gupax for your OS here: https://gupax.io/downloads/
2. Extract somewhere (Desktop, Documents, etc)
3. Launch Gupax
4. Input your Monero address in the [P2Pool] tab. USE A SEPARATE MINING-ONLY WALLET!
5. Select a Community Monero Node that you trust, although you can and should run your own node if possible.
6. Start P2Pool
7. Start XMRig

The fewer "cash out" events we have, the stronger the Moneroconomy gets. If a town or a state can ban property taxes on owner-inhabited primary residences it becomes much easier to avoid needing to cash out once the mortgage is gone.

START RUNNING AN I2P NODE
>START RUNNING AN I2P NODE
START RUNNING AN I2P NODE
>START RUNNING AN I2P NODE


>What is I2P?

I2P is an anonymized P2P overlay network akin to the Tor network but with several key advantages over it. I2P is now replacing Tor as the go-to darknet and will play a pivotal role in growing the Monerocentric economy.


>Why should I care? Why should I run a node?

Increasing shadow economy adoption and the proliferation of an XMR-only standard are what guarantee that XMR will have a floor and won't also crash to zero when the Crypto Casino finally implodes. XMR's long-term outlook is therefore *strongly* correlated with the darknet, you may have already noticed how the number of TXs begins to drop whenever the glowies attack & cripple the Tor network, which underscores just how critical it is that the darknet wins this war against the State. Make no mistake: if the darknet is allowed to die XMR will take a devastating hit as well.

So by running an I2P node you are helping to make the network Monero thrives in that much more robust while also enraging glowies in the process. Win-win!


>OK, but how difficult is it? Do I have to store GBs worth of data like when running an XMR node?

It is literally as easy as installing an Android app and no, there are no storage requirements, the node only consumes some bandwidth.


>Cool, I'm sold. What do?

If you have no interest in browsing the darknet yourself then the simplest solution is to install & run the I2Pd Android app on any compatible (Android 4.1+) device, ideally a TV box since they don't require recharging and are permanently online. But any old phone or tablet is fine too. Make sure you activate "start on boot" in the settings.

Otherwise just install the appropriate desktop client and leave it running.

>Bitcoin's price = NOT the result of organic real-world supply & demand = NOT sustainable

Wash trading has been artificially driving BTC's insane price action since the first major spike in 2013.

>Wash Trading 101
1. create/maintain the illusion of high volume
2. wait for poor unsuspecting fools to FOMO in
3. dump at a fat profit and leave them holding the bag

When the supply of gullible fools finally runs out, the entire scheme implodes.

TL;DR: exciting price action means nothing in an unregulated market rife with such manipulation, real-world utilization is the ONLY reliable metric of actual value.


>No tail emission = Bitcoin is fucked

Right now, at the current hashrate, miners break even on energy expenses at a BTC price of $22K. Post 2024 halving, that break even point, at the current hashrate, goes up to $44K. If BTC does not go to $44K, miners will be unprofitable and hashrate will have to drop (miners going out of business) to reduce the cost of securing the network, also reducing the security.

If you know anything about the power of 2, you already know that things get very big, very fast. If we’re 3 halvings into 32 total halvings, then the estimated break even point for miners at current hashrate going into the last halving would be:

$22,000 * (2^27) = $2,952,790,016,000 per BTC

$2,952,790,016,000 per BTC * 21 Million total BTC = $62,008,590,336,000,000,000 BTC Market Cap

The block rewards shrink so fast that after enough halvings BTC would eventually require a $2.95 trillion price per BTC and a $62 quintillion market cap to sustain the current cost of $7.15 billion/year.

Even if these numbers were somehow realistic, can you imagine securing a $62 quintillion market cap on only $7.15 billion/year of hashrate? LOL

So basically BTC mining will eventually become so unprofitable the hashrate (network security) will shrivel up UNLESS it is subsidized by BTC transaction fees.

>clearnet but XMR only.

Clearnet = permissioned white market: regulations up the ass, no anonymity, domains can be seized, hosts can be pressured to drop "unsavory" clients, IRS knows where to find you.

Darknet = permissionless grey/black market: no regulations, full anonymity, domains can't be seized, hosts can't be discerned, IRS don't got a clue.

So, grey darknet markets are the future. Think buying Monero-chan stickers on an I2P domain.

but those have already failed since they've all launched too late. the time for monero to cement its relevance was in 2018, when delisting it was a decision to be made. today there's no question about whether it's worth keeping or supporting.

>>57486113
no, because the biggest white market today in crypto is price speculation. the problem for monero (like all alts) is that it's had its fun years ago and newer alts have taken over for speculation.

if it had kept with tech upgrades like dropping ring signatures half a decade ago and creating something that wasn't as awkward to use as non-custodial lightning is today, it might have had a chance at staying relevant in the payments world where privacy isn't a primary concern.

alts must evolve constantly or they die at least in speculative terms, and speculation is how an alt becomes embedded in an economy willing to stick up for it long term, instead of dropping it when the going gets touch as has happened.

delays, delays, and more delays. it's near impossible to incentivize development when the community of definitely not glowing users reject any and all flaws in monero as "fud" and create a hostile environment for improving anything.

in it's current state monero is worse than bitcoin has ever been for making changes to it's core technology, which is a problem when monero more than anything else needs regular privacy upgrades. dropping ring signatures should have happened before 2021, instead the pool of available developers has shrunk and almost all the talent working in this field has moved elsewhere.

>>57489128
the premium isn't the biggest problem, it's the symptom of no interest. if bitcoin can't create a parallel white market economy what chance does monero have?
speculation was monero's way to force a consistent white market, but the developers dropped the ball and left monero stagnant for years despite a very lucrative 6 month hard fork schedule you will find next to nowhere else in crypto.

The question is is how do we determine the price once the plug is pulled on every white market?
Crypto is a metaphysical battery; a measure of energy.
Money is ideally a measure of labor, but what labor went into the creation of an XMR, the cost it took to buy the CPU?
That's still measured in fiat.

Despite your best concern trolling efforts, Monero's future is actually very promising:

- still vanquishing BTC in the very underground shadow economy BTC created
- establishing a monopoly on payments in a growing online black market that CANNOT be legislated away
- now also starting to muscle in on BTC's dominance in clearnet commerce.
- generating ever-greater buzz and street cred for the above
- Serai and Haveno are now close to launch, guaranteeing XMR availability even in the event of universal CEX delisting
- full-chain membership proofs are practically done and just need to be audited. bye bye ring sigs
- the moonfags and hodltards that ruined Bitcoin are shunned with extreme prejudice, ensuring that Monero remains dominated by ideologically-driven cypherpunk extremists.

here's a fucking book, read it all.

You deserve to lose your money for dumping it into someone else's exchange and leaving it there expecting everything would be fine forever and never educating yourself even a little bit on how this tech works, you are 38, not stupid. I'll give you some help though.

So there are a bunch of ways you can make and use your own wallet in varying degrees of simplicity and security. You could just use the GUI wallet on your main PC and risk losing everything if you failed to write down your seed phrase and the PC dies or it gets infected with malware, you could use Cakewallet on your phone and risk the same happening to your phone. The general idea is to prevent the slow creep of time from separating you from the knowledge of where your seed phrase is and to keep any existing instances of that wallet secure (on a device that will not get shoah'd by chinese malware)

Any way of accomplishing this is a valid way of self-custody, but I'll give you a sort of "recipe" that offers a balance of security and ease of use. Without technical prowess it might be a bit difficult to set up but if you only do what is easy your life will be hard.

https://pastebin.com/A7T8YWQC
This is just the "secure deposit" side of things, like a piggy bank basically. To get your funds back out you would just re-connect to the internet, point your wallet at any node at https://monero.fail/?chain=monero&network=mainnet and send a transaction as normal.
Yeah there are other far more secure wallets and I'm know the schizo-tier security guys could easily blast holes clean through this method but for the average person this is more than secure to hang onto your few grand at most worth of monero.

lol what's the rush? People opt for stablecoins because unlike everything else they're predictable, pegged to a familiar currency and there's *currently* no crackdown on users or vendors accepting it. If that were to change and privacy suddenly started to matter more, you'd see a pivot towards Monero.

there hasn't ever been a successful medium of exchange that is itself only used for illegal activity. monero needed to break into white markets before it stood a chance at defending its black market activity but that never happened.

it's near impossible for alts to find userbases long term and nobody is going to stop building privacy tools on other networks just because monero exists especially when its lost most of its plausible deniability.

>>57500189
if monero is reliant on people breaking the law to use it they'll also happily break the law to use more liquid and available currencies like bitcoin. you can't regulate monero into dominance because its usage will be deemed as illegal as blacklisted or tainted bitcoin are.
when the punishments are equivalent they're going to use the one that's the most plausible. pretending you accidentally used monero (whose use is entirely criminalized) is a lot harder than talking your way out of having a small portion of tainted bitcoin.

Your retardation knows no bounds. White market utilization can be legislated away at any time, you fuckhead. That is the point here. Growing an economy that is immune to State interference is the ultimate goal, not some arbitrary degree of brand recognition.

lol being banned is a badge of honor AND a resounding validation of the tech. Banning XMR but not BTC makes BTC seem cucked and suspect.

And people care about taint in proportion to the amount of inconvenience it causes them. More inconvenience = more abandonment of BTC, as seen on the darknet.

if they're outlawing privacy, they're obviously outlawing the entire monero network, the lowest hanging fruit of things to ban first. being caught with any connection to monero becomes equivalent to being caught with blacklisted coins on bitcoin.

this is not something technology can fix for monero, it simply doesn't work in the real world when everything is tainted and any trade participant is receiving tainted xmr (because every xmr is tainted). monero can not save you from monero itself being outlawed any more than bitcoin can.

you guys need to find some arguments that don't rely on the state blessing monero and leaving it alone while going after public networks instead.

But I'll respond to you anyways. Yes greed can lead to bad outcomes, which is why a good money accounts for it. Bitcoin's first promise is that number goes up, accounting for greed, while also providing a decentralized, non-inflationary money that solves some of the problems of greed. Monero preaches "moonboys fuck off", failing to account for human nature.

>> No.57506241

>>57506198
Monero's philosophy doesn't dismiss human nature, it wants it to evolve, to prioritize security and financial privacy in a dystopian world increasingly indifferent to both. Bitcoin addresses some greed issues, but at what cost?
A permanent financial digital footprint.
Monero isn’t just about avoiding moonboy mentality; it's about forging a path where financial privacy isn't a luxury but a standard. Monero is not anti-greed; it's pro-discretion.

Buying and selling narcotics is outlawed. But as long as you do it through the darknet you're fine. Now let's apply that to Monero, numbnuts:

- the Monerocentric DEXs set to launch soon (Serai, Haveno) are darknet-based.

- most Monerocentric storefronts in development e.g. Neveko are also darknet-based.

- we already have several darknet-only Monero escrow services available e.g. FreeTrade.

TL;DR: everything necessary for a darknet-based grey market economy to emerge is basically already there. Permissioned white market adoption not required.

So yeah, let them ban Monero, its not going to fundamentally change anything lol.

having your own closed system is not the point. ideally monero can protect you from a world where some minority of funds in monero are "illegal". moneo can not protect you from a world where monero itself in any form is illegal.

the real kicker is that if you care about privacy today you have more options than you did in 2016, when it was only mediocre on-chain mixing, weak privacy bytecoin, and opt-in privacy monero. monero isn't the only game in town, it can't afford the heat that comes with a broad spectrum sanction like tornado cash.

and why would any of you guys that pretend to not care about the price care anyway? you have no long term incentives.

the darknet is not a "closed system", its an anonymized network running on open source software that is available to everybody.

And only a darknet-based parallel economy is safe from the whims of government, you can't legislate black markets away.


>ideally monero can protect you from a world where some minority of funds in monero are "illegal". moneo can not protect you from a world where monero itself in any form is illegal.

Are you legit retarded or something? Monero's legal status is utterly irrelevant if you're not directly engaging with the mainstream economy or using CEXs. A 100% fully outlawed XMR can still be earned/traded and freely exchanged for goods/services on anonymized platforms. NOT ASKING FOR PERMISSION. Get that through your thick skull.


>monero isn't the only game in town, it can't afford the heat that comes with a broad spectrum sanction like tornado cash.

Be sure to inform the darknet privacy boffins, they sure seem hellbent on giving Monero a complete monopoly on payments.

> 1) !!_____ 2) !!_____

> I will ___ for 0.03 XMR. I require this escrow: !!_____

> I will ___ for 0.03 XMR. I do not require an escrow nor upfront payment.

Gig request templates:

> I will pay 0.03 XMR for someone to ___. I require one of these escrows:
> 1) !!_____ 2) !!_____

> I will pay 0.03 XMR for someone to ___. I require this escrow:
> 1) !!_____ 2) !!_____

Escrow offer template: (Always post escrow offers with a secure tripcode)

> I will escrow up to 0.06 XMR.
> Base fee: 0.005 XMR

Rules:

Do not break 4chan rules.
Do not get involved in gigs related to breaking 4chan rules.
Do not offer gigs requesting upfront payment without an escrow.
Do not pay upfront for gigs without an escrow.
Do not request a gig without an escrow.
Do not accept gig requests without an escrow.
Using an escrow means that the fee will be subtracted from the listed, escrowed amount.
Keep everything under 0.06 XMR.

You're basically arguing that only cucked compliance coins are noteworthy assets, which is a sad testament to the state of crypto in 2024.

In any case, there's already several lawyers listed on Monerica who are more than happy to accept XMR. A nice start, don't you think?

it doesn't have any speculative benefits,
it's designed with huge flaws like expandable blocksizes when combined with ring signatures,
it has a weak and non-committed community of users (not you larpers here) that have no problems moving elsewhere to the next privacy tool,
it has a very poor development community who are showing very little interest and ability to move to a harder privacy cryptography like zkps,

when it doesn't have the tech, or the developers to improve it, doesn't have the price or the market to improve it, and the community of users is entirely disinterested, what exactly does monero have?

it's more insidious than an objective failure. ring signatures mean you have to align incentives extremely carefully because unlike in all other blockchains you're creating an incentive to deanonymize people by creating transactions.

if you do things to reduce the cost of creating transactions, like an expandable blocksize, or permanent inflation to allow for low fees, you're directly working against the core properties of ring signatures.

>the problem monero has is it has nothing else propping it up, in part because the last 7 years has been a developmental black hole.

instead of having a woman moment feel free to point out where i'm wrong. no, increasing the ring pool to a still undersized amount doesn't count.

there's more money to be made elsewhere. if you're specifically looking to acquire monero, wait.

You're not wrong, Monero is a complete failure, we're all doomed, $100K BTC end of year!!!!!!!!

Unfortunate that it got delisted from Binance.
What I don't understand is why so many of the monerofags here are just the typical delusional cult bagholders. Taking the position that you don't care about the price because it is simply PRIVATE electronic cash would be a respectable position,
But most of you are the typical

I did not know that, if I knew I wouldn't ask. I have reasons to believe that it will, and reasons to believe that it won't and I'm unsure which way those add up. Why do YOU think it won't work as a standalone thread? And do you mean that you think it would work as a post in another thread or not at all?

I did not expect binance to delist it
the MiCa regulation just states that you must limit withdraws, and that is for the EU only
you can still trade it

we are effectively just in a FUD frenzy, it will pump back up

Think about the kinds of gigs you would do. Even for the smallest one, what fraction of an hour would they take to do? If it doesn't up with what I sent, then it's doomed to failure. .01XMR isn't money to live off of, at least for now.
