I used to think that the BTC security model is in trouble, I was so wrong! /s
  • tusker tusker Now 100%

    MoneroTown is federated so the downvotes are most likely coming from other instances with BTC maxi's who are angry the truth is coming out. However this post is off-topic and should be in a more relevant community as it has not that much to do with Monero. Maybe cryptocurrency community.

    Nice write-up. I could see the captured BTC devs propose proof of stake solutions in the future. BCH is where real bitcoiners have migrated to. BTC is now just full of bag holders and laser eye clowns.

  • I'm considering running for political office in the US.
  • tusker tusker Now 100%

    This would most likely be a waste of time. The state is configured in such a way to resist any change and continue the status quo so everyone of your peers there would be fighting you.

    It is much better to build systems, communities, and technology which render the state irrelevant. Ultimately the state is a mafia and it exists for its own benefit at the expense of everyone else, so joining this and trying to rearrange some tables and chairs will accomplish nothing for freedom.

    Why the Bitcoin Lightning Network is doomed to centralization & failure

    That is why I think BCH will be the go to bridge. Buy BCH on any exchange, run it through some CashFusion rounds to unlink from you then swap for XMR.

    Feather-Atomic atomic swap plugin for feather wallet v1.1 released
  • tusker tusker Now 100%

    If that is how it works then the best way to use it would be to keep a pool of LTC that went through MW then spend from it. You do not want to MW a specific amount then immediately move that same amount to somewhere. Because the receiving party could possibly determine the origin before the MW pass-through just based on the amount.

    BCH is a better option IMO, they have CashFusion which is a very advanced coin-join which gives you almost Monero level privacy. https://bchfaq.com/knowledge-base/what-is-cashfusion/

    MW on LTC requires the other party to also participate, something which exchanges and most people will never do. I used to use LTC but have found BCH to be a better option with more potential in the future as the community is very active.

    Bounty on building an AppImage installer [2 XMR] · Issue #1222 · haveno-dex/haveno
  • tusker tusker Now 100%

    Appimage is a great way for developers to release a binary that works on all linux systems right away. It is a burden on devs to create multiple packages.

    Then distributions or users can take the appimage and build a package that integrates properly.

    It is also trivial to integrate an appimage into your system by just creating a file that your desktop will read and create a menu item.

    This may be a new attack tactic. By flooding the TX pool with large transactions they are trying to artificially jack up TX costs since the spam attack did not work. As usual Monero will learn from this and improve. 👍 It is best to go through all this while Monero is still not a top world currency.
