One thing is clear: the golden age of decentralized Monero liquidity is upon us. The way it was supposed to be all along. Liquidity isn't about whether you can buy Monero. If every country on Earth banned Monero, and every exchange delisted it, anyone would still be able to trade Monero anywhere in…
A while back, Spirobel shared an article: Robust Monero Escrow with offline Arbitrators "With this library it is now possible to let arbitrators share their dkg public keys, similar to how people share their monero addresses and let them be included in the escrow wallets. The merchants define a…
Monero needs an independent forum. This seems like the best shot at that because of the incentives. Also its less prone to drive by trolling and off topic noise from external communities. It does mean less support questions which is double edged.
Some of you might know me as Monero Master who developed the MCEP . I've been featured on Monero Talk with Douglas Tuman and was an early adopter of XMR Bazaar . My day job is as a professional digital marketer who manages large amounts of ad spend for some of the largest tabletop gaming brands in…
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…
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

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…
The Depoliticization of Law John Hasnas Advocates of the privatization of law often assume that unless law springs from some act of agreement, some express or implicit social contract by which individuals consent to be bound, it is nothing more than force. In this Article, I argue that this is a…
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…

Imagine carrying the entire Monero ecosystem in the palm of your hand, that’s what these 3D‑printed programmable NFC chips deliver. More than just storage, they can securely hold seedphrases, wallet data, swap provider details, and even step‑by‑step instructions for merchants to adopt Monero…
I've been meaning to check this ever since I saw Spirobel's tweet last week. Browser wallets have been a routine part of other chains like Solana for a long time. They're pretty convenient. I think it's pretty neat: I just tried using it with Stasher: https://youtu.be/-xN-RzpOLww I know browser…
one benefit of building in the browser is that the instrumentation tools work very well. for example it is possible to slow down specific network requests with the old monero-wallet-rpc the issue was that the concurrency of the local http server was interleaved with the…
Hi While reading the discussion under Whats next at Stasher, what direction shall we move in? , I realized it was time to try something I've had on my mind for a while. One thing stood out in the comments: people want content that's worth reading and worth bookmarking and coming back to.…
For whatever reason when I got into Monero I set up annual wallets. Initially to avoid all my XMR being drained in 1 bad tx or a single wallet exploit. For each wallet (2017, 2018, 2019 etc) I have a coin tracker (currently livecoinwatch) and I just put all Monero bought in 2018 into a wallet then…

We all know the idea of separating money from the state. The Myth of the Rule of Law by John Hasnas was the first time I saw someone try the harder cut IRL (non-fiction): separating law / lawmaking from the state. (The real first time I ran into the idea was in Heinlein’s The Moon Is a Harsh…

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…
