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…

What do you guys do while you wait for your wallet to sync or for coin control to release your coin balance? [I take a dump and eat bad sandwiches, yes i really am that efficient]

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.

Testosterone levels in men have been declining for decades. That's not my opinion, that's the meta-analyses. Sperm counts on the same slope. Something in the environment is moving the baseline and nobody in charge is asking why loudly enough. The science points at endocrine disruptors. Phthalates,…

Signing Monero transactions offline isn't easy to begin with, and even the official method is complex and risky enough that it's not really recommended. But there's another thing about the official flow that's bothered me for a while: it doesn't actually build the transaction offline. The transfer…
