Last Notes npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Yea, it's made so much worse by combining th premine with PoS. On top of that it's claim to being a private Ethereum is weak once I realized token issuance is centralized to the token creator and lacks programmability. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Large verifiable premine. Even larger unverfiable premine from Boolberry. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless I still think you have it backwards. Scarcity is the result of demand outpacing supply not the other way around. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless We're just having a friendly conversation. We disagree, that is ok, I still like reading what you have to say about both thats why I follow you. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Scarcity is a function of both supply AND demand. Bitcoin isn't scarce only because it has a fixed supply. You can have thing A with more supply than thing B, yet thing A is more scarce than thing B because it is more demanded. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless The massive differences that you aren't seeing or omitting is that “tail emission” mining is open to anyone, decentralized, predictable, and requires PoW. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless NymVPN, Kagi, and some ecash schemes for Cashu have, or are working on, blinded credentials which is a similar concept related to what you're doing (but yours is probably more ambitious) npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless I personally view democracy as just tyranny of the majority (and in practice often simply an illusion to hide the power and interests of a select few). But I do understand the pragmatism of making shitty things less shitty. So I'm not necessarily against your idea. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless I just find it hard to believe most governments would want to use this as it reduces their control. I think it is less about them thinking it is viable and more that the current systems works in their favor. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless I'm not talking about market caps. You're dodging the topic again. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless And how much of that is non-custodial and not on permissioned markets? Irrelevant for Bitcoins value prop. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless I get the idea for voting (if thats what you want) but how would that even work? npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless You act like the average joe is actively using or thinking about Bitcoin in their daily lives 😂 npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless No, my counter argument is it's being used in one of the most adversarial environments and free markets on the planet. Every white market transaction is permissioned - which goes against the entire point of Bitcoin. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless This sounds exactly like what media and tradfi were saying about Bitcoin in it's niche darknet market days. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Just removed you from the supply npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless It includes anyone who appreciates Monero (even if they don't use it themselves) and I've seen you say you think Monero is cool a few times before. Maybe I got the wrong impression. My bad if you didn't want to be on it. I'll remove you no problem. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Made a Monero follow pack 👀 npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Wow! He figured out the amount he sent me AND the stealth address he created! npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Zeus is probably my favorite LN wallet for sure. It has a lot of privacy features other LN wallets like Phoenix lack. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless "Lightning "receiver privacy" is simply designed better." npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless First I want to preface by saying I never denied you could give me the info you did from a Monero transaction (you're obviously not a third party if you're making a transaction with me), nor did I claim I could give you any of the info you cherrypicked for me to give you. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Where did I say that? 😂 npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Why would I agree to that lol? npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless If the recipient isn't encrypted on Monero then point to any of my transactions on it's blockchain. Should be easy since my Monero address is on my profile. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Lightning (or any other L2) built on an encrypted blockchain like Monero would be superior. It would be way more feasible to enforce on-chain because fees will always be much cheaper on Monero thanks to tail emission and dynamic blocks. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Yea, I won't disagree, if someone makes as many mistakes as the guy in this video (not masking IP address and using centralized exchanges) and everyone involved is colluding, Monero and Lightning probably aren't going to help much npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless There is no one holding money temporarily in this scenario. I think you misunderstood what I said. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Sending your Monero to someone else, or another wallet you own, after you receive it is functionally no different from trampoline routing (besides the fact that it's done in a single step with the latter). In either case the sender doesn't know for sure where the money eventually ended up or if it was even spent to begin with. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Onde é que eu disse que o Liquid tinha mais que uma atualização? Está a destruir espantalhos por pontos que eu não reivindiquei. O que eu disse foi que foi atualizado, ponto final. Vejo que também não disse nada sobre a custódia. O Liquid não possui aquela que é provavelmente a mais importante das propostas de valor fundamentais do Bitcoin. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Liquid *é* um token L-BTC completamente diferente. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Está a confundir tokens diferentes (como Liquid e Monero) com preço fixo. Para ser preciso, o seu principal problema com o Monero é que o seu preço não está ligado ao preço do Bitcoin, não que seja um token diferente (caso contrário, não quereria o Liquid). npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless >"Ninguém guarda toda a sua riqueza em Liquid e Lightning (espero). São camadas secundárias, logo menos seguras que a primeira." npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Look at Bisq. Apparently they do. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Os seus problemas com o Monero são inconsistentes porque o Liquid também não é compatível com versões anteriores e um token Liquid não é Bitcoin. Além disso, o Liquid é custodial e o Monero não. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless O problema é que você ainda está expondo o gráfico de transações. Ele ainda é rastreável porque mostra a relação entre os endereços. Você ainda está expondo dados desnecessários, que são outro elemento que pode ser usado para identificação ou rastreamento, especialmente quando combinados com dados off-chain. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Bottom part of the last panel isn't true. Bitcoin hasn't been attacked nearly as much as Monero in terms of delistings and bans. It's not a copy either. Different protocol and genesis block. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Well Luke has never given a timeline on Serai afaik. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless After this no upgrades to Moneros privacy will be needed for the foreseeable future. It will also include forward secrecy meaning even adversaries with a quantum computer won't be able to break it's privacy. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless In what way specifically is it a bad idea? Optional privacy on BCH would face the same challenges, but I still think you guys should do it. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Btw it's way more than 1000. With FCMP every single transaction on Moneros blockchain going forward becomes your decoy. Huge improvement. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Just to be clear that's sender privacy for a single transaction (every additional transaction you make, or that uses you as a decoy, is exponential to your anonset) and was a theoretical attack discovered by a Monero researcher - not proven in the wild. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Fair enough, but it's delisted from Binance, the largest exchange in the world by far, and most others. Not sure what other coin is more delisted/unavailable/banned than Monero. Kraken is basically one of the few major ones left and only offers it in the USA and couple other places afaik. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless You think a large influx of gold entering the market wouldn't affect it's price negatively? The fact that it is "there" doesn't matter until the market actually has access to it. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Yea Garnet is really out of date. There is a solution cooking up though 👨🍳 npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless >"I opted out of inflation" npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless "XMR-BCH atomic swap web app 'AxeSwap'" npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Is gold mining "stealing to pay miners"? npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Bastyon is pretty dope. I have an alt account. Learned about it from @npub14sl…t5d6 npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless It's an example. They know the same thing about all your addresses whether you enter them in or not. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Agree. Miners aren't robbing anyone of anything when they mine whether it's Bitcoin or Monero 🤝 npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless It's inflating the circulating supply until the block subsidy goes away. More to dump on the market that wasn't available before which of course affects value for all current holders. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Whoa! A rare Bcasher on Nostr! npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless You already automatically share your data with google because you use a public transparent blockchain npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Additional supply, that was previous unavailable, pouring into the existing circulating Bitcoin supply is going to affect the value of everyones Bitcoin. Sounds like inflation to me. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless @npub1w4u…0jr5 npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Feel free to look at the updated stats. It's the same story every time. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Issuance is decentralized, predictable, and requires PoW. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless 1. I think there is a face-to-face option on Robosats (obviously you wouldn't be "anonymous" but they also wouldn't know who you are either). Might be difficult to find a trade if you don't live near a bigger city. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Lightning payments offer pretty strong privacy if used correctly. Custodial wallets give you privacy from the general public, but not from the custodial provider. If you are going to use a custodial LN wallet you might as well use ecash. You can still be rugged, but at least you have privacy from both the public and the custodian. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless How would you do that? You have to show at least partial balances (amount of Bitcoin not relevant ot the transaction). And they can also see future balances when you inevitably consolidate for other payments. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless What about xpubs? npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Yea it was definitely inspired I won't argue against that. I would argue both XMR and BTC are different iterations of Bitcoin as a concept. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Monero has an entirely different protocol (cryptonote) and genesis block, so it's not a copy or fork of Bitcoin. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless The only portion of Bitcoins economic activity relevant to it's value prop exists on black markets. Any transactions taking place on white markets are subject to the rules of a central authority so undermines the entire point. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless >" He's completely ignoring all the issues mentioned in my post. The cool thing about XMPP is that the end-user does not have to listen or obey external rules. While as this author is a bitch slave to Signal's board" npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless It's custodial, requires middlemen to transact, unauditable, completely surveilled up the ass, and closed source...but as long as it mentions "Bitcoin" somewhere 🤪 npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless "Monero has many downsides, but is a good privacy coin. I would never use it to stack my sats." npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless https://image.nostr.build/9792d89270025333f88b247915e46932ac1cec531b9292d6d56cce11251b3e63.jpg npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Curious to know what you guys think about these criticisms of the current state of OMEMO+XMPP in this article. Valid? FUD? npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Odd. I see a lot of deflection, but no explanation why what I said is wrong 🧐 npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Liquid apenas esconde quantidades. Não esconde remetente e destinatários. Monero faz os três. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless "never know the supply" maybe take your own advice Wallet of Satoshi IOU fractional reserve user 🙄 npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Tudo o que você listou tem suas próprias desvantagens exclusivas npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Well, it's Nostr so there are way more Bitcoin conversations going on with the potential for that to happen VS the other way around. But it does happen the other way too. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless https://image.nostr.build/563fe6fae92d9f1459b7f4bc85978712a23a1b2c08bd389e681bad97f97a84e7.jpg npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Considering Monero is not even 1% of Bitcoins mcap, has a much smaller userbase, yet still regularly hover between 5-10% of Bitcoins transaction count demonstrates that it punches above it's weight as p2p digital cash npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Good overview of KYC exchanges, web browser fingerprinting, the academic weaknesses of ring signatures, and legal climate around buying/selling Monero npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless He's saying it would be more burdensome to run a Monero node vs a Bitcoin node all things equal. Which is true. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless >"Lightning network is more secure and private than monero." npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Good points. Didn't realize you were a hostile direct competitor. I was genuinely asking because I figure you know more about this topic. I don't have a strong opinion on it mostly because I don't know enough about it. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless If you have the interest and time you should do a deep dive on NymVPN/NymProject npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless When dark mode? 🕶 @npub1sae…kuqh npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless That's why I said not necessarily. Depends if you're using your own node. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Well in that case Lightning isnt necessarily p2p either. The hops between you and someone else you are paying isn't your peer. Unless you're directly opening a channel with that person which, let's be real, isn't the case for the vast majority of these transactions. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Don't really understand this either considering that Monero is usually the most traded currency on Bisq besides on-chain Bitcoin npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Not sure if I trust Zano because of it's unquantifiable premine from Boolberry swap + PoS = effectively a hidden dev tax if so. But we will never know. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless DarkFi will probably better for those things in the near-term and it's merge mined with Monero npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless I think for this particular implementation it would use on-chain Monero to fund the mint and receive ecash. Ecash itself is fairly anonymous with blinded signatures. Blinded amounts being worked on. No public blockchain. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Will check out the video. Always thought client-side validation was an interesting offchain privacy alternative. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless FCMP is going to enable L2s npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless >"I'm asking now why YOU don't only use Bitcoin?" npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless You can post your wallets private view keys and all incoming transactions will be available for anyone to see how much Monero you have received. But right now outgoing transactions dont properly work. Outgoing view keys will be introduced with the upcoming FCMP upgrade later this year. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Hey @npub1w4u…0jr5, just bringing this to your attention, I think you can claim part of the Garnet bounty just get in touch with Plowsof npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Sounds based. Privacy is non-negotiable for p2p digital cash. npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless "Here’s how payments broke down last month: npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless Offtopic, just realized are you Pubky dev? That's badass been waiting for it to go public and give it a spin 🏄♂️ npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless >" I would prefer a private coin that is two ways pegged to Bitcoin than Monero" npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless My point is that a sidechain would have to start merchant adoption all over again from scatch. Compared to the last two attempts seems like a very tough uphill battle to get over the already existing network effect of the already existing privacy coin (Monero). npub14a6q6xvt4wuv0wpdpfr336e4fweldtu6np3ehpw55h83xuw2h2zsgyz6rn SaberhagenTheNameless There is a large discrepency between merchants that accept on-chain vs Lightning vs Liquid, etc are in practice very different even though they are all Bitcoin.
