/xmr/ - Monero General

[Anonymous No.29693874]

Welcome to the Monero General, dedicated to the discussion of the world's leading decentralized p2p privacy cryptocurrency!

Monero is secure, low-fee, and borderless, 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 (hidden tx amounts) ensure that Monero's blockchain is obfuscated -- 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 Monero user willingly providing a view key for a specific transaction.

Monero has also improved upon the scaling downsides of current popular cryptos. To avoid high fees, dynamic block size ensures that the size of the blocks will increase as the amount of txs 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 of 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 will gradually approach 0.6 XMR in May 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.

Same. The Monero-chan OC is legitimately good and unironically might be the reason I became interested in monero in the first place. She goes hand-in-hand with the generally superior quality of these threads and the posters here being the highest quality of /biz/ stock. I have genuinely fapped to some of these anime drawings. I also like if she filters the normies who are so out of touch that seeing lewd anime drawings on 4chan is embarrassing to them. These posters should be filtered because they're low IQ and can't detach from their own ego. This sort of person can only be no good.

[Anonymous No.29700233]

>>29700064
That's where I'm hung up.

Would I be correct that the gist of solo mining is that it's all or nothing - either you solve the hash and get paid or you don't and get nothing for your work? And that pools would smooth out your returns by allowing you to share the rewards with everyone else who participates with a pool?

I already have the GUI but haven't really fucked with it yet.

Solo mining Monero is very difficult. Even if you have a very good hash rate, getting a block is quite difficult. Solo mining does help support the network, so that’s based, but it’s basically a lottery ticket. If you join a pool you will get essentially guaranteed returns, although of course much lower, but still pretty good.

[Anonymous No.29704662]

Govenments can't stop a decentralized network (see things like bittorrent and Tor).

They could ban the fiat onramps/offramps, and that would be annoying in the short term, but even then there will always be decentralized options (e.g. localmonero and Bisq) and there will always be countries without such draconian laws that you could VPN in to.

Not to mention atomic swaps. Once that's implemented governments would need to ban Bitcoin in order to stop Monero, and we're probably past that point for most countries.

Yes, solo mining with your own computer should be regarded as if you were playing the lottery. Meanwhile pool mining will actually give you some reward, but it will be very small and it might take a while until you can withdraw due to the very small participation on the overall work. Some people pointed out XMRig which is a very good recommendation, but you will need to read a little bit to set it up properly. If you want a quick way in just to see how it works, I recommend going on cryptonote.social and downloading the MoneroCart miner that they have. It's super straightforward and it has a chat feature so you can ask other miners (and the pool operator) questions about mining, etc, they're chill.

most of the soothesayers in this general either bought in early and don't mind if it tanks back down to $20, or they haven't ever bought a significant amount of Monero and just like its use for freedom/privacy. Monero's accurate value should be in the double-digits, there is no way the ride-or-die monerochads will sustain over $100 when it's regulated. Too many normalfags are pushing up the price.

>>29714738
The one gotcha with XMRig is you need to run it as admin/root because it tweaks your CPU settings to boost hash rate. Thankfully it's all open source so you can audit and do a personal build if you're paranoid.

they can see that you bought it but once you move it off the exchange they don't know what happens with it. I think most of us are fine with this because at the end of the day nobody can prove that you didn't lose the keys (they can't see the money moving from your wallet like they can with BTC).

Holy shit, I just realized that "GET MONERO" is an anagram for "MR GENTOO".

[Anonymous No.29719686]

I wonder if there is a way to disincentivize large mining pools to encourage more smaller pools and/or soloers. Is there some way that there would be a difficulty penalty if a pool had too high a percentage of hashrate? I'm only familiar with some other POW systems and just got into Monero. But it's something I've often thought about.

I pretty much gave up on thinking about it in BTC since the powerful mining cartels would never be interested in being *less* profitable, but since Monero hashrate isn't as centralized, perhaps it's something that could be proposed one day.

not only is it centralization because you need to have someone dictate what makes a pool 'large', as well as which pools are breaking the rules, it's also pointless because the pools can also simply split into smaller pools or setup a new node so you don't even accomplish anything

That would be determined algorithmically by a protocol change, RandomX.2 or whatever. No hard forks without community buy in on the change.
> it's also pointless because the pools can also simply split into smaller pools or setup a new node
...thus splitting their hash rate and discouraging new users from joining any of them, which serves the long term goal of decentralization.

There is a valid "meta" attack to this I can see, someone can simply run N pools under the control of the same entity, out of band of the internet.

That wouldn't work. First of all, one person could just run a mining pool that is made up of many smaller pools and nodes. One organization could still control everything and it would be trivial to fool the network. Secondly, that goes against the basic capitalistic theories behind proof of work. The best way to prevent centralization is to educate people about how joining one of the top pools is directly against their self interest.

you would need a vpn that doesnt throttle speeds and wouldn't limit your bandwidth. you'd probably want to make your own private vpn using some cloud service rather than buying a 'regular' vpn service

If you use a VPN the port won't get forwarded and you'll just be leeching. On your normal connection you might not need to make any changes to ports or anything. Just run monerod and type status after its been running a few minutes. If you get incoming connections then it's working to seed the network. You can confirm by looking at network stats in task manager or something.

[Anonymous No.29731008]

maybe, but in that case if there were state actors working against the blockchain, we would probably take drastic measures and have to either use some kind of central whitelist until we could outperform them in computing power, or temporarily block miners in that country i.e. if china was attacking the network or the USA specifically, or make some drastic change to make mining on the hardware that the malicious actors are mining on less effective, or some other mitigating fork in the protocol which would probably be broadly supported if we were legitimately under attack by one or more states

I can actually see Microsoft blocking all known Monero wallet/miner binary hashes from working on Win10 via a mandatory update if that law ever passed.

Can't spell GETMONERO without GENTOO. As easy as it is to evade, such a block would definitely reduce adoption among the less competent.

They already soft block most miners and wallets as potential malware via Windows Defender, including xmrig, the daemon, and the GUI wallet, making you click through Windows Defender's "actions" menu to allow. Upgrading to a hard block wouldn't be out of the question.

You think it's a smart idea but you risk attracting attention by creating a single focal point to investigate. Letters and packages will always come for you, but if a package comes for someone who hasn't consistently ordered packages there for a while, then you made their job a lot easier to try fishing the smoking gun if they were already in your tail.

Running your computer 24/7 does not damage it at all as long as you are operating at a safe temperate. Maybe fans could wear out faster, but no damage will be done to your CPU.

You're actually more likely to damage your computer turning it on and shutting it off every day. It's why servers last longer than Aunt Betty's Facebook Machine before letting the magic smoke out, aside from generally higher QA.

Hard block is unlikely. Also people that want to mine will mine regardless of "policies".

Yeah because it has a miner built in for solo mining. It's good for decentralisation if people run it but I doubt many people do. Probably better to have a minerslees default version for Windows, as disappointing as it is.

Hey guys
I would like to add monero support to the lamassu crypto ATM servers. Which nodejs wallet would you recommend?
Would anyone like to participate in this?

Sounds fun, but I see all the prices denominated in Euros. Does Lamassu sell in the US?

Is buying litecoin, transferring it to kraken then using it to buy XMR cheaper than buying xmr with a credit card?

[Anonymous No.29741143]

there's actually people on other thread thinking btc is 'private enough' lol

it's worse than a bank transfer or credit card in terms of privacy

[Anonymous No.29741376]

>>29741143
When you see black people on twitter talk about the value of privacy and their Monero stock is when you should sell. Every bit of objectively false criticism before that is a massive bullish sign.
