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

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.

https://github.com/PurpleI2P/i2pd-android/releases/latest


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.

Threadly reminder that there is now a parallel XMR General on the darknet imageboard BitChan where you can post with the absolute maximum degree of privacy possible.

Why bother? Well, remember that every time you post on 4chan the content + your IP address are being logged and that data can and will be made available to LE/glowies upon request.

So if you need to ask a very delicate question, want to make a potentially incriminating announcement or you otherwise just absolutely positively DO NOT WANT to risk being deanonymized, the BitChan thread would be the place to do it.

The slightly higher barrier to entry also serves as a badly needed retard filter so a lot of us post there simply to avoid the hordes of mouth breathers that befoul this otherwise delightful basket weaving forum.

>How do I access BitChan?

You need to have I2P configured & running on your device. Fortunately, pre-configured browser bundles are now available and make everything easy. Since most of you lazy faggots are still using Windows we'll default to that for the following guide:

1. Visit https://i2pd.website/ and click on 'Download I2PdBrowser'.
2. Download either the I2PdBrowserPortable_xxx.7z or .exe file. Extract/install it.
3. Run the StartI2PdBrowser.bat batch file to launch. Adjust firewall settings/port forward as required. Port forwarding > UPnP

A cmd window will pop up and initialize the process. A windowed Firefox instance should soon appear. DO NOT RESIZE IT! Browser fingerprinting is a thing. Once pic-related appears you are officially browsing the darknet! You can monitor yr I2P service by visiting http://127.0.0.1:7070/ in yr *regular* browser.

Then simply copy/paste the following link into the address bar as per usual:

http://bitchan.i2p/thread/BM-2cVPN9mi9oBKATjNxKkopHJSCU9ah7wQwW/047186ce462d

You may have to complete a CAPTCHA on your first visit. Also, NEVER, EVER ENABLE JAVASCRIPT!!!!

Keep in mind that page loading takes longer on the darknet, so be patient.

Zcash was launched by one of the most respected technical teams in the world.

Zcash is the 'https of blockchains,' protecting your freedom to save and spend as you like.

Zcash was the first project to implement zk-SNARKs, a novel form of zero-knowledge cryptography that gives its users the strongest privacy available in any digital currency.

Multiple, independent organizations are funded to innovate on Zcash.

Zcash is already available on top exchanges, digital wallets and a growing number of applications.

Blockchains are terribly inefficient in comparison with other technologies that already exist. The only use they have so far is cryptocurrencies, and blockchain tech has been around since the nineties.

Risc-v is serious, thing is they are primarily processors for very specific electronics which are certainly not desktop computers. We are aproaching that point very quickly anyway.
As for how safe they are... well they are open source so if you have the expertise you can check how it works but i guess nothing would prevent that the manufacturer doesn't modify the original design and add some backdoors to protect the children. I dont really know if you can and how expensive it would be to make some sort of silicon check.

I believe you'd have to compile the software for risc-v specifically. You have to do the same between ARM64 and x86-64. I don't know if that's currently possible or if people much smarter than both of us likely are would need to figure that shit out first.

There’s people way smarter than me already working on that. The hardest part of the work, writing a C compiler that targets the architecture (and can run on it), is already done, everything after that is project specific with the only changes needed being if they use tricks specific to x86/arm

Unfortunately, manufacturing CPUs is insanely high-tech. Working at the scales they do (single digit nano-meters) a single piece of dust can fuck everything up. So while there are people who are figuring out how to 3D print with metals, the scale that they work at is way too big to be able to even think about creating a consumer grade CPU. The manufacturing process for CPUs is called photolithography, crazy stuff.

From what I've learned about the history of Monero, it seems to be a relatively slow moving project in terms of the fundamentals while still being willing to improve. Errors by devs can be really bad, there likely are people who are relying on it to avoid prison. Even if there aren't, the intent is to have no way of knowing. So upgrades to the fundamental cryptography should be taken very seriously and pass multiple extensive reviews and audits. The cryptographic theory of something might be solid, but implementation is something different. Things can be lost in translation, difficult to change because of some reality of how things were operating before, a deceptive interaction, etc. I'm a retard tier dev, but I can attest to the difficulty of getting things exactly how they're intended.

I'm too much of a retard to actually understand any of the cryptography at a deep level so I don't actually know what math is better. I do know that the Monero project is slowly moving to zero-knowledge proofs to replace various aspects of how it works today. Those things will make XMR more secure, and better in other ways, but it is more about staying ahead than catching up. The situation isn't so urgent as to need a fix before people who know, are confident it is ready.

All that to say, there's more to it than just if some cryptography is thought to be better. Monero is proven today and willing to adopt the better technology in a responsible way. If you're interested in the process you can lurk in their communities. https://www.getmonero.org/community/hangouts/

I don't think it has too much to do with VR, but we are absolutely headed towards a future where most people are using cloud-based applications and cloud-based computing for normal things. Google Stadia (which was supposed to bring gaming into the streaming world) was kind of a flop, but that's because the internet infrastructure just wasn't strong enough to handle it. But when it is there by the end of the decade, Microsoft and Sony and Valve are all going to have cloud gaming services that will outshine the "old ways" of downloading and storing video games on personal hardware. Who wants to spend hours downloading a 120gb game when you can just boot up the flawless cloud version in seconds after purchasing it? And for people that need big computer rigs to edit videos or render 3DCG in blender, it will be cheaper and easier for them to utilize Microsoft's cloud computing services, which will be like editing and rendering your project on 10 supercomputers at once for like $20.

As for how it will affect cryptocurrencies and monero, I'm not sure. Even if everything is streamed, all of these devices like smartphones and tablets and computers will still need a CPU, so there will always be hardware that is available to everyone that can mine monero. I also think that projects like ICP could play a role as being a decentralized alternative to big tech cloud-computing farms. Things always play out fucking weird though, "real world events" seem to shape the internet in significant ways because it creates a pretext for introducing new laws and standards for how we do things. Some manufactured internet crisis in 2025 is going to have more impact on the future of the internet than what we can theorize right now.

Doesn't make sense. That would make hashrate less valuable.
For some reason people are willing to pay 3x the average monthly price just to have the more hashrate, I just don't see why, there should be some kind of logic there.
Option 1: Someone is laundering nicehash balance and willing to overpay in btc for monero hashrate, unlikely because they can just withdraw the btc and swap them to xmr elsewhere
Option 2: There is new kind of attack which needs a lot of hashrate, so people are willing to overpay

I'm thinking of using Trezor Emulator on Raspberry Pi as "hardware wallet" to store my Monero. Thoughts ?

https://rusnak.io/trezor-emulator-on-raspberry-pi/

Pavol Rusnák is a co-founder, CTO and core developer of SatoshiLabs, where he leads the development of software and hardware projects such as Trezor, the first hardware wallet.

>Just build a pitrezor at that point
Reasons:
1. Pi Trezor is a clone of Trezor One, the one without touch screen capability, where you have to press a button, it looks like a pain in the ass. I'd rather use Trezor Model T, which is what Trezor Emulator is.

2. It doesn't support Raspberry Pi 3, which I have.

>>55229056
Well, he's the co-founder of trezor of course he's saying that. If you can't trust Trezor emulator, you can't trust Trezor either, they're using the exact same codebase.

Ahoy Mates,

I have been test piloting Trocador and Kuno.Bitejo for the last two weeks or so for XMR crowdfunding. WIth all due respect, I am completely grateful for the suggestions and terrific support of this community. Two small eccentric things give me mixed feelings about each platform.

1. Trocador sends ye an email every time a transaction is created to donate to ye. However the donator doesn't have to send funds. This sent me into extreme panic last night when I received an email saying someone had created a transaction to send me 200 XMR that never reached my wallet. It took a good hour or two of testing the platform and tracking down transaction IDs to realize someone had probably created a transaction to donate to us with 200 XMR, to see how it worked, but never sent the funds. Totally never expected anything like that to happen as I envisioned just kind people sending us whatever dust was in their wallet. But felt like walking my own plank for about a hour last night thinking I had that much XMR scammed from us and someone who wanted new episodes so badly.

2. Kuno.Bitejo is a great concept with a great look and I like it very much. My only complaint is donators have to enter their TXID in order for it to register. And I imagine most anon donors wouldn't want to go through the hassle. I don't know what a better solution would be as I appreciation the technical limitations involved. But I think I've got a handful of donations from there while only two have registered with mates leaving wonderful nice comments.

to be a sovereign individual in a post apocalyptic technocratic state you need a few things

a free renewable source of electricity that you can be quite confident won't run out

a hydro electric source of power to mine xmr on and run your household, tools, and small homestead, also it's water, and you can drink it

ideally you would also have cattle as it's a self sustaining animal given you protect them from predators, and manage the land properly

Post like these buttblast my jimmies to no fucking end because some of you in the first worlders have absolutely no frame of reference when coming up with these doomsday scenarios.

>post apocalyptic technocratic state
What does this mean? are there any real life examples of states that have naturally formed under the conditions you envision?

A look at the real world and you find that extreme societal conditions result in authoritarianism, police states, dictatorships, anarchy, heck even theocracies. Where is this technocratic state configuration coming from and is he in this room with us?

>free renewable source of electricity that won't run out
>small homestead
>water you can drink

Wow! If only I had known this before leaving Nigeria! So all I needed to do to live in first world comfort was having a small homestead with a water processing plant and a source of reliable energy! Why did I get on a boat with smelly Moroccans to reach Europe where I work as talent for letsdoit when I could have just built a nuclear power plant, smuggle a few dozen solar panels or build my house next to a body of water capable of producing hydro power! Why didn't I think of this!

Let's assume that somehow I obtain everything you have described above (house house, reliable energy, water and food). Do you seriously think that in a post-apocalyptic scenario, everyone is going to respect your property rights and let you live happily ever after in your secluded, luxurious state with all of these wonderful amenities? Is this consistent with what you have read in history?

This simply does not align with all of recorded human history. Short of living in an Afghanistan cave you cannot escape the grasp of the government in one of its many forms (gangs, cartels, tribes). Even in Afghanistan's, you cannot simply find a desirable piece of rural wilderness and live free from coercion. When property rights evaporate, the notion that you can have something desirable whether in the city or in the rural area, without being given the explicit blessing of whatever thug claims to "represent you", is wishful thinking.

The authoritarian instincts in humanity run so strongly that it has taken Europeans a mountain of cultural traditions to just to suppress part of it in "peace times".

This is why I pray the "collapse" is neither as severe as some of the doomsday preppers seem to envision and with enough technology adoption (like crypto, private communications technology) the collapse will be controlled and not crush all of humanity at once

Hey, bro! Sorry to hear about that!
When a donation is paid directly in the same coin you want to receive, there's no trade to be made, so we have no way of knowing if it was actually completed. We'll try to make that clearer on the email!
Otherwise, when there's an actual trade done we only send the email when it's completed.
One of the next features we're working on is a blockchain lookup to check this for transparent blockchains and an option for the receiver to provide Trocador his receiving address' viewkey, so we can do the same when it's Monero.
If you want Monero not to appear as an option on the donation widget you could use the remove_direct_pay=True parameter on the URL.

If you have any suggestions reply to this post, and we'll do our best to implement them!

Ahoy Mates,

What happened was completely my fault and is funny now. I completely understand with XMR, there's no way of telling if funds are sent. I tested Trocador backwards and forwards,it works great. Anonpay is a terrific idea that will be extremely useful in so many different areas. Also being able to convert so many different currencies with yer platform is increidbly helpful! I really like yer platform, how clean it is and all the obvious work ye rmates have put into it.

That's amazing ye monitor the community ye serve this closely. I will continue to use yer platform and say good things about it. I sincerely appreciate yer hearing and responding to my e-mail situation! My apologies for making a n00b mistake.

I think you have one use of the word "asset" mixed up with another use of the word "asset"

Monero is an "asset" in the way that a bulldozer is an asset at a construction site or a service pistol is an asset to a police officer. It's a tool, a facilitator of other actions which generate value or accomplish tasks. Not an "asset" how you'd use it to describe a financial holding of some form where the only goal is to increase the value of the thing itself through economic productivity.

Moneros price against the dollar could go down significantly and it would still be an asset and not a liability (of course, to an extent. But even if all the "big players" got justed to 50 cents/monero, in due time more "big players" would arise as long as the tech continues to work as intended)

It's not a stock, it won't make you any money, it's a currency, a tool you use to facilitate exchanges of goods and services. An implement you do other things with. Simply holding monero will do you no good and it will do the monero economy no good, either.

A shovel is worthless unless it's digging holes.
