Guess I need to setup I2P and see what the fuss is about.

So you’re saying I’m a software developer? Here I thought I was vibing

Missed by a quarter (should have been 26Q1) but this is exciting!!! Monero Beta testnet to deploy before 5/1

Perusing Reddit this morning. I keep to a few subreddits to see what’s useful. All-in-One media server deployment based on the *Arr services. A simple script to deploy things like Radarr, Sonarr, etc and have your own media server. https://github.com/DarthVibe/Executarr

For self custody, it seems to be great But MAGIC Grants is fedded. Justin Ehrenhofer is a fed, works with the Feds, and has no business funding or giving grants to Monero developers. The same reason I speak out against Zcash I’ll speak out against MAGIC. 1 pr and update, your TX history and anonymity is gone. It’s one thing to trust devs who constantly push even more privacy. It’s another to trust an entity whose head is seeking to deanon Monero for “lawful purposes”. Couple with the incoming CARROT viewkeys (which I support), this is a bad recipe in the making.

Oh this is interesting…

Here’s the Chainalysis training video they gave to the IRS. https://odysee.com/@takebackourtech:f/chainalysis_XMR:d 6:50 “…increasing ring size to 100s will make our jobs that much more difficult” 13:35 “…a lot of how we do our Monero tracing is through involves IP observation…” 13:55 “Dandelion has made that impossible.” 15:15 “Here we see are stealth addresses. We can’t just toss that into the search bar and see other transactions from that user.” Minutes 16 through 18 show how they use heuristic probability with fees and number of decoys. They also are using the older 10 decoy setup and not the current 16, soon to be hundreds of thousands with FCMP++ 19:55 “…are greyed out. These are our tool ruling out some decoys. It uses a variety of heuristics to determine some of those {decoys} may have been previously spent” 20:20 “… We have an output labeled RPC. This will always draw our attention. What that means is a user connected to one of our nodes to broadcast their transaction.” 20:35 to end: Shows transaction hashes from MorphToken swapping service. They didn’t trace it without having bad OPSEC. The subject used Chainalysis nodes to broadcast his transactions. That was on Exodus, a lightweight wallet where there’s no self-custody. It was also relying on 10 decoys. Chainalysis isn’t going to show a hard to trace for training, they want to show exactly how they did it to find other like transactions. So yeah, the Chainalysis can’t trace Monero easily and a lot of tracing in this video relied on decoys, heuristics, sloppy OPSEC, and subpoena’d data because of Bitcoin transactions being public.

Coupled with typical OPSEC behaviors with ease of use and boom, cooked

I read non-custodial completely wrong.

Did you get Skylight?

You don’t need to worry about Proton being breached and having you data stolen. They’ll give it to the FBI for free, cuz they asked nicely
