For those who do not know: Nikolai was a true builder and one of the last genuine cypherpunks in crypto. He focused on elegant, permissionless, corruption-resistant systems rather than hype, profit, or personal branding. As one tribute put it, he spent his life crafting tools to realize a vision of…
today is Nikolai Mushegian's (@delete_shitcoin) 33rd birthday. here's to a genius who dared to see things for what they are and call them by their true names—and, most importantly, when he saw something wrong, he built the tools to make it right. Nikolai was a builder in the…

Unlike Bitcoin, which relies heavily on specialized hardware (ASICs), Monero uses the RandomX algorithm, designed for regular CPUs. You can start mining XMR with any decent computer (AMD Ryzen; Intel Core i5/i7), a reliable internet connection and, of course, a Monero wallet. The best option for…
I've been thinking about how to use Monero transactions as a means of communicating covertly with another person. For example, if I sent you 0.000009830316 XMR using the code table above (you might need to download it to see it clearly) I would have communicated with you "WTB Fake ID". WTB =…
