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…
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…
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,…
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…

Whenever i have a day or two off work i begin to fantacize about instigating a monero funded global society for the study and the advancement of white unity, anglo culture, european values and outcomes, but then i quickly imagine my own suicide, double tapped in the back of the head, a suicide note…

Tor VPN Beta extends Tor's protection on Android beyond the browser by routing app traffic through the Tor network using per-app isolated circuits. The Tor Project announced a wider rollout of the app yesterday, September 9. Unlike a conventional VPN, which typically sends all traffic through a…
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…
Obligatory Monero Turf post: How did you first learn about Monero? How did you start using it, and why Monero? What other essential privacy tech or practices do you employ in daily life? Obviously only share what you are comfortable sharing, and change all names, dates, locations, and events to…

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…
Looking to start doing some writing in a private way. I like substack, but they seem to be shoving more and more people into their app. They are proprietary, they are centralized, and they'll probably do the thing that happens with every "free speech platform" which is bait all the interesting…
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…
Great episode with Jeffro and Doug to get the latest updates from a Monero dev on the devs path to FCMP++ The GAANT chart is also great visual aid to follow whats currently happening Timestamps: 0:00 Intro and sponsors (Cake Wallet, Stealth EX) 1:00 Catch-up: family life, NY governor's race,…
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/.…
