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…
Incoming Zcash/ZODL scandal: $589k frozen after Zcash swapped through Near Intents. The user had been ghosted for 50 days before getting a response a few days ago on the Zcash forum from ZODL, saying that they can't comment on the matter (attached). twitter.com/unstoppablebyhs/status/2098401182980931644
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
There's a current rule on XmrBazaar that allows legal or technical assistance, guidance, or consultancy services to help users set up accounts, e.g. platform, offshore bank, exchange, or similar accounts (with Liberation Travel cited as a legitimate example). It simultaneously prohibits identity…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3_sMAAERwo In this video I explain how a zero day vulnerability in Dread's anti DDoS software, along with it's head technical admin accidentally uploading a private key, lead to the sites main onion domain getting hijacked, and the site being taken offline…

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…
Lets say you know there will be another global covid like event with similar global response and tactics as the first one (social distancing, masks, travel restrictions, experimental vaccines to be able to work/travel/buy food, etc) and it would take place in exactly one year from today. What, if…

In an effort to make Monero as private as it can be and return to its cypherpunk roots, today I am submitting Monero Improvement Proposal 1984 (MIP-1984) to add a transparent address type into the protocol. t-addresses in Monero will allow us to reveal our transaction data to the entire world,…

Skylight by MAGIC Grants is one of the very few wallets that run off Monero LWS, which kills the dreaded sync wait I hate so much. Brings us closer to a mobile XMR experience w/ the UX modern chains provide. Making a mobile device do the chain scan never made much architectural sense to begin w/.…
LoA Quote from The Seven Pillars of Wisdom by T.E. Lawrence. What are you going to do today, anon, to take back your freedom?

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…

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…
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…
just read this and thought stashers might find it interesting too: Alright, I'd like to have a discussion regarding bitcoin's fungibility (or lack there of). I am a bitcoiner and have been for a decent number of years but I would ask that we leave our maxi hats at the door and look at this…
