Hi, ek here! I used to work at Stacker News. I like what you created here! Forking a project with this ambition is a big compliment in my world. I'm curious about how you thought about sybil fees. I see you have chosen not to include them, so any tip goes 100% to the recipient. I know they suck,…
is there actually a point to learning new things right now? taking a gap year because i have no idea what to learn, or if it will even matter by the time i am done. feels like studying for a world that is already gone. dad was a programmer and did startups. i liked coding in school and thought that…
The fourth weekly rewards distribution cycle is complete and Stasher News launched one month ago (28 days ago to be exact, but hey, some months have 28 days). Notably, there have been over 485 tip transactions and almost one whole XMR has been tipped peer to peer (0.94 XMR tipped to be exact).…
A cap on the weekly rewards is currently in place at 0.6 XMR per week, giving stasher news curators 10 weeks of guaranteed high weekly rewards at the current reward pool levels. It was a bit of a rush to get this implemented safely ahead of the next distribution in 2 days. I chose 0.6 as a…
Welcome to Stasher. With this post, I want to introduce you to the funniest game powered by Monero, a privacy coin you can earn and spend to create insightful posts and thoughtful comments. I discovered Monero a long time ago, forgot about it, and this game gave me an opportunity to dust off my…
The weekly rewards are distributed every Monday morning. To be eligible, you must have upvoted new content that eventually made its way to the front-page. That means upvoting QUALITY content. Rewards are basically a finder's fee for high quality, or viral content. This is how Stasher News rewards…

Ok that's not a question... Just curious to know: Do Monerons wear moustaches? How about the Stashettes[^1]? [^1]: "Stashette" = a woman on Stasher(?) Yes, I made it up. No, I will not be adding "Stashero" for man.
I think many of us use LLMs for work. But I cannot help the instinctive distrust when I see a vibe-coded project. Especially if it is new and not by someone I already know and trust. Before, a non-professional project was obvious. Now the more polished it looks the less I trust it. The practical…
When I load up Stasher News, I get put on the Lit page first, and if I do Lit or New, the bottom bar contains the S logo, the search logo, the post button, and the notifications logo, but it does not contain my account picture. Therefore, I am unable to get to my settings or profile to check my…
First week of sn and here are some things I learned. I noticed myself spending more and more time on stasher.news lately, as this is one of the most refreshing sites I have found, and I would like to share what I have learned after hanging around for a while - sharing is caring. Starting with The…
1. Tips Everytime you upvote a post the creator get's 100% of the tip. Write upvoteable posts. Earn Monero. 2. Found a Turf These are the subdomains that drop down from the menu when you create a post. It costs Monero to establish a turf and there may be ongoing costs, but you would receive 100% of…
The arcade gets stronger with each new arrival. But what if it had to last the server? Yes. Stasher is a game about creating a community with no bank, no landlord, and no timezone. It's built on Monero because we want the ability to control our own value, to be censorship resistant and self…
For people who already know what and why we need better OPSEC. We have been operating under an assumption that doxxing comes with high costs and requires intensive resources. And that deanonymisation is possible but expensive, that linking a forum account to a real identity takes a skilled…
There’s a rounded value heuristic (often discussed in Bitcoin privacy) which is inherited by any public chain, including non-shielded Zcash. This isn’t the case when values are hidden, especially for Monero and any shielded Zcash (or future shielded Bitcoin). A pool boundary… twitter.com/yfarmx/status/2109671242458358176
It's truly a miracle of this age that anyone with a computer and an Internet connection can access and study hundreds of years of humanity's intellectual legacy, thanks to free culture projects such as Project Gutenberg. But I realised there's not enough information on this area of the Internet.…
Being interested in geopolitics, theology, and social psychology, I often read extensively about these topics. Perhaps too much? Clearly, the situation looks quite bleak right now, it may always have been. Yet I used to think of it as "this too shall pass" or "tough times never last", though both…
Hi stashers. Solo dev from Switzerland here. Since February I run kashilo.com, a classifieds site (think Craigslist / Kleinanzeigen) built for people who want to buy and sell real goods with Monero and without handing over an identity. What it does today: No email, no phone, no name. Your account…
I've been spending time on Stasher News and XMR Bazaar lately, and they're honestly the first places where Monero felt real to me — not just a coin to hold, but money you actually use. Tipping posts, buying things, no middlemen. But it got me wondering: these are still pretty niche corners of the…
Ruling groups maintain power via force, but long-run ideological support from the majority is essential: “Once a State has been established, the problem of the ruling group or ‘caste’ is how to maintain their rule. While force is their modus operandi, their basic and long-run problem is…
Alright, so I tried out this vibecoding thing and I had the fun idea to launch a new blockchain with FCMP++ enabled at genesis, fully merge-mined with XMR - of course with P2Pool-compatibility. Syncing a stressnet node takes a while, so if you want to try out FCMP++ before its mainnet release, this…
I've been moving around, and one of the issues I always found, whatever place I land, is ordering stuff and getting it delivered without disclosing personal information. I've seen this https://stasher.news/items/339626/r/artemis posted today, and it made me want to ask stashers if they have any…
