I've been building monostr for a few weeks: an Android Nostr client where the "zap" is a Monero tip. No Lightning, no custodian, no KYC wallet in the middle. How it works: you register your primary address and private view key with a watcher (the same trust model as stasher.news, which is where I…

The Shirky Principle: Institutions Try to Preserve the Problem to Which They Are the Solution The Shirky principle is the adage that “institutions will try to preserve the problem to which they are the solution”. More broadly, it can also be characterized as the adage that “every entity tends to…
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…
Have you participated in either of the first two stressnets? and are you participating in the upcoming oct 5th stressnet? https://github.com/seraphis-migration/monero/releases/
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]

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
This is a practice network for a Monero upgrade called FCMP++ and Carrot. It is not mainnet. The coins on it are not your real coins. Your normal wallet stays where it is. A node is just the program that downloads the chain and talks to other computers. The test needs its own node. The one you…
