XMR Monero General

[Anonymous No.21988363]

The XMR daily general is for supporters of the cypherpunk ideology to hang out and help noobies learn about Monero, the most fungible cryptocurrency. A cypherpunk is any activist advocating widespread use of strong cryptography and privacy-enhancing technologies as a route to social and political change.

We believe that Monero is the logical continuation of Bitcoin because it offers superior privacy, leading the way to many potential use cases. Discussion points include rising Dark Net adoption, news articles about Monero, daily transaction totals, and new technology updates to the Monero project.

Moonboy posting is discouraged, however price speculation and TA is fine.

I recently recovered a monero wallet with 9.5 xmr in it.
The last transaction was about 1400 days ago when I was using the command prompt wallet.

What's going on with XMR these days?
Are you still battling the hidden ASICs?
Did fluffy develop layer 2?

Would normie boomers ever buy monero, or do we need to place our bets on zoomers? Millennials like myself are pretty cucked and would say monero is a threat to their socialist vision because millennials can’t handle life without big daddy uncle Sammy. Can’t tax easily with monero, thereby killing government revenues.

I think people are always forced to adapt to technology.
Socialist visions fade when they realize they cannot target math with psychological attacks.

People who don't understand the math will see one community producing competitively in a service economy, and the other having a hard time in an inefficient planned economy.

I’m a former leftist, so I really hate leftists right now ngl. I hope monero wins in the end because at this point, I just want to be left alone. America has had red scares before, so we know how to deal with this shit.
My mom still doesn’t even know what bitcoin and told me it sounds like a scam lmao. My mom thinks of gold when thinking of inflation hedges.

>What's going on with XMR these days?
Drug markets are now (very recently) majority XMR and not BTC. Plus some updates making things better like usual. Things are going smooth basically.

>Are you still battling the hidden ASICs?
They have been defeated, maybe forever, by randomX.

>Did fluffy develop layer 2
Tari testnet launched a while ago. Not super hyped about it but we'll see.

Monero - the only crypto I've actually used in the real world

[Anonymous No.21990678]

0xBitcon now has liquidity on Balancer!!! Also on Uniswap, Forkdelta, Mercatox, and more!!! We can exchange our mined token INSTANTLY for Ethereum or other tokens. We can transfer our coin CHEAPLY because we are a very cheap token to send. We are the best iteration of Bitcoin since Bitcoin and here is why.

We run whole exchanges on ETHEREUM and we run our TOKEN on ETHEREM, we get to transact on chain with Ethereum, LINK holders love it, we love it.

0xBitcoin, a cryptocurrency using Proof-of-Work to FAIRLY distribute erc20 tokens using Bitcoins mining model on and backed by the Ethereum blockchain.

With 0xBitcoin it is a still possible to mine 1 coin a day on a 1080 ti or better. costs 0 ETH to mine coins!

No premine or dev fee or unfair practice were given on launch. The code has not been hacked or upgraded since launch! We have cheapest erc20 transactions.

0xBitcoin miners solve a complicated hash from the Ethereum blockchain that gives them the reward of a block (currently 50 coins) and submit that proof to Ethereum blockchain (which gives a new challange hash for them to solve).

0xBitcoin is the first ERC20 Mineable Token. Running for over 2.5 years! First reward halfing in ~2.5 years. No hacks/scams/pre-mine/dev fee/ or cheat available, it was public the first day it was on the blockchain (Feb 2018) with a public miner.

It has a price of 0.11$ at the moment and only 21 million will exist

0xBTC mined @ 6.2 million (Circulating supply)
First halfing @ 10.5 million

Poor argument. Miners control block issuance, later stakers will control block issuance. There is no central authority to "roll back" anything.

Monero wins by default because it has a way larger community, dev team, and more adoption. It also has better privacy that is built in, and the largest anon set.
Zcash is optional privacy with hardly any adoption. It likely has a backdoor.
Mimblewimble scaling is cool and it is actually being used for Tari. As for a privacy crypto there are a few projects but these also aren’t really notable for various reasons and they have zero adoption.
The erc privacy options are stupid because ethereum has no privacy on the base layer. Plus zero adoption.

[Anonymous No.21991904]

>>21991773
There are an estimated 240 monero devs, and that's being generous. There are 200000 Ethereum devs. There are likely more devs working on privacy on Ethereum now than total devs working on Monero.

[Anonymous No.21991935]

even if so. vitalik would easy convince 51% of the miners if nsa would tell him do it or eth will get hunted in the west.

Monero has had more like 500 contributors, and anyways you have no way of proving that. It still wouldn't change the fact that Ethereum has no base layer privacy anyways. Your pajeet project probably has like 2 devs who exit scammed a few months ago lmao

Governments, banks, and institutions are using Ethereum and they will use zk-SNARKs. They aren't really competing with monero, you will still be able to buy your kiddie porn with it so don't worry.

All it takes is for one dex to run a zkrollup with zk-SNARKs and Ethereum would have more private transactions than any other chain.

[Anonymous No.21992225]

>>21992099
zk rollups provide nothing in terms of privacy, they're pseudoanonymous like base layer transactions.

[Anonymous No.21992238]

>>21992099
Weird how I’ve been hearing that would happen from eth fags for the past year and instead moneros adoption has exploded whereas ethereum continues to be entirely based on pyramid schemes.
And again, any move of eth to a privacy token would be observable from the transparent base layer, which leaves you susceptible to pretty basic attacks. A shielded zcash transaction was traced in a similar manner a few weeks ago by a random twitter user. The reason you don’t hear about these vulnerabilities more often is because nobody uses zcash or your erc token shitcoins.

Interesting, got a link? Was it just based on amounts and a low privacy pool?

[Anonymous No.21992433]

>>21992352
Don't have a link myself but basically it was a low pool of anonymity sets. The guy just picked at random and was lucky enough to guess the correct one. It's not a flaw in Zcash's privacy, it's a flaw in the amount of people using it. Surprise surprise, if you have optional privacy nobody uses it. What a shocker.

[Anonymous No.21992985]

>>21992553
Is work being done on this?

In the scheme as described by Vitalik, all transactions are visible and accounts are just plaintext numbers. I'm assuming you're talking about a different rollup scheme with privacy built in rather than adding privacy on top of Vitalik's rollups?
