After having a few annoying blockchain corruptions on the whonix workstation, I decided to create a local-only dedicated 24/7 blockchain VM (fedora server). This has been great and I wish I had seperated the blockchain from the client sooner.......but what I have noticed is that the VM is getting an absurd amount of churn. My daily incremental backup is around 30GB using veeams high compression! I…
For some reason two weeks ago I decided to try and purchase some XMR directly from Moonpay. Come to find out they sold me a BS token that isn'tr real XMR and is untradeable. Is there anything I can do. Customer support has acknowledged there fuck up but isn't willing to do anything about it. Who do I report them to? or is there a way to sell this fake XMR? submitted by /u/qwuyn [link] [comments]

I think there will be a huge economic crisis, specially in Europe. I think that for multiple reasons, mainly because the automation of white collar jobs will cause many people losing their jobs, which will cause more people to lose their jobs which will ultimately and even worse make this people more likely to radicalize in socialist/communist ideas that will end up in more control from the state.…

Collecting market data for XMR from all available exchanges 24/7 at a couple of seconds/minutes intervals (depending on type) for complete, detailed and often exclusive market data, such as deposit checkers, real time Tapedata, complex charts/indicators and [any asset] charts for XMR, e.g. Cattle / XMR, CL / XMR…
I want to share a serious security warning regarding SamFwToolSetup_v5.4 following an incident in which my computer was compromised and funds were stolen from my cryptocurrency wallet. I downloaded and installed SamFwToolSetup_v5.4.zip because I needed SamFwTool. This was the only software or suspicious file I had downloaded and installed on this computer for years. Shortly after executing it, my…

It seems no one either noticed or wants to talk about the elephant in the room.. we broke something this year. You can fact check this on HTX right now and it showed this on many non western exchanges and some rolled it back.. why? They want you to get bored. Voluntarily exit the coin and not realize its the real bitcoin. We are a threat to bankers, bitcoiners, exchanges and the global monetary…

Today, I'm sharing **QuantumMiner v1.8 Pro**. 🔍 What is QuantumMiner? QuantumMiner is a portable, GUI-based management interface designed to handle Monero mining workflows seamlessly.…
I know that in theory Zcash can be very private. Well, it lacks the fungibility that Monero has by default, but at least with shielded transactions, it's private. However, I'm having difficulty finding any actual real-world use cases for this privacy. Are there any merchants that accept Zcash natively? It's all over exchanges, but is there a single P2P platform that has ever offered it? Is there…

So I saw this feature in cake wallet and the official monero GUI that you can sign messages with a monero address but can I like trust it? Or should I just use PGP to sign messages? I couldn’t find any information about signing with a monero address like differences between PGP or something like that submitted by /u/Free-Aioli7541 [link] [comments]
This is the weekly Monero market thread. This thread will be posted every Friday and is meant to help accelerate the adoption of Monero. Due to r/moneromarket having only a fraction of the subscribers of r/Monero , we have decided to create this thread to encourage more individuals to use Monero for product exchanges. Until the market matures, we recommend that the Monero community post their…
I have been toying with this idea for a while: Can we make blockchain payments quantum-proof without heavy asymmetric signatures? Standard networks rely heavily on ECDSA, which faces long-term vulnerabilities from quantum computing (Shor's algorithm). I recently vibecoded Sealstore, an experimental signatureless payment scheme in Go that relies purely on commit-reveal hash schemes to eliminate…
Hey r/Monero , Years ago, OpenBazaar proved that sovereign, decentralized P2P commerce was possible. When the original project ended, a group of volunteer developers from the community (including us) felt the vision couldn't die. Over the last 5 years of nights and weekends , we took that core P2P multi-sig escrow foundation and completely rebuilt it for the modern web: What we built: 100%…
Hello r/Monero , We are extremely excited to introduce buckets.ninja our no kyc s3 object storage offer. Following the same philosophy as Servers.Guru, Buckets.Ninja is prepaid , and use the same wallet system that we already use for our VPS and the other services we currently offer. Servers.Guru and Buckets.Ninja are 2 products from the same company. You can login to either platform with your…
I’ve been building and operating monero.win , a small Monero only casino, for around 530 days. I rebuilt it and launched V2, and it's since crossed 48,000 bets (21,017 since v2). People often ask how much these services make. What surprised me most is how little the house has actually won. Actual gross profit since v2? Approximately 3 XMR after 21,000+ bets and several thousand wagered XMR. That…
I watch many bitcoin channels on YouTube and I have never seen them recommend to pay in monero, monero is privacy by default but they insist on paying with bitcoin in an anonymous way with more steps involved. It doesn't make sense! submitted by /u/Chance-Half-199 [link] [comments]

I’m trying to find decent no KYC visa/Mastercard virtual card for privacy stuff, small online buys maybe adding to a mobile wallet when I travel next month. Ideally fundable with xmr or at least without touching a bank/exchange login, but I’m not sure how many of these are legit vs just sketchy resellers. Anyone here actually using one lately, and what are the gotchas with declines, fees or cards…

A few weeks ago there were rumors that Kraken was going to limit US residents in regard to deposits and withdrawals of Monero (XMR) to/from their Kraken accounts.

Hi, This is a post on Cuprate, the Rust Monero node. Since the well received Kesterite released two weeks ago development is going well, and a second preview version is in preparation. You can expect QoL and stability fixes, RPC hardening for making public nodes more robust, and pruning support. As many of you already know, since alpha, Cuprate can sync a blockchain dramatically faster than…

Hey everyone! I hope you are doing well. I just got back from DEFCON and it got me thinking about Monero and privacy. And it started with, how can I make Monero easier to use, send, work with, etc. I wanted it to be like tap-2-pay, or Venmo/PayPal, so I built DUCAT. Currently an Android client. https://github.com/karazajac/ducat as a way to do this. Its built using thr Veilid network (…
With the help of Claude I am now up and running with Fedora Plasma and also running a public node. Or to put it in Claude's terms: "I'm running monerod as a systemd service with an unrestricted local RPC on 18081 and a restricted public RPC on 18089, plus solo CPU mining." I have unlimited data and pretty fast fiber internet. Any pros and cons? Before AI help this was tedious and a little…
Hi All, I'm writing here as a last attempt to either fix or understand what the heck happened. Yesterday I logged into my Cake Wallet and was shocked to see this https://preview.redd.it/5dklibge98jh1.png?width=1577&format=png&auto=webp&s=d9795e215a2af42405f894912d4f42f87c7c7a25 As you can see from the screenshot above, my wallet's been hacked and funds have been transferred out. I tried reaching…
With the whole Coldcard thing, I've been reevaluating my setup and felt it was worth redoing everything for peace of mind but I didn't want to make the same mistake of remaining uninformed and placing my trust in some random seed generation code. So I went ahead and built my own from the ground up. Full transparency, I used AI, but it was all built one thing at a time, with extensive testing at…
I’m currently making a significant amount of money through crypto, and I make sure to properly declare my income, pay my taxes, and meet all my social-security obligations. However, I increasingly feel like there is almost no financial privacy left. Every transaction seems to be traceable, and I sometimes feel like I’m constantly being watched. At the moment, my setup involves sending funds to a…

Hi guys, sorry if this has been asked many times, the other day I had to restart my phone, anyway, I lost my cake wallet, and have money in it, litecoin.

I was watching " The Secret War to Censor the Internet " by Lextorias and it got me wondering, not for the first time: Why don't we have a decentralized, XMR-based, Patreon-like platform out there for fans to support creators without being cucked by Visa/Mastercard/Paypal/etc? I follow a lot of different art communities, and artists are regularly being taken down by platforms, or forced to censor…
Ledger fucked up and their Monero app leaked a secret that can be used to compute the private keys: https://donjon.ledger.com/lsb/022/ It is very unlikely that any malicious actors knew about this beforehand but they definitely know now, so update your ledger (or better yet, replace it with a Trezor, which is unaffected by this specific vulnerability) Practical exposure Requires something that can…
