For me it's Zcash.

I DON'T GET PAID UNTIL NECT TUESDAY SO I CAN'T ADD MORE MONERO TO MY STACK UNTIL THEN

STOP MOONING YOU PIECE OF SHIT

>>24618439
Don't put in more money if you're that short on cash, you should always have at least a little fiat saved up especially in a pandemic

>>24618439
This pos needs to go back down so i can acoomulate more

Fuck Monero

>>24618498
I'm not short on cash, have 5 grand in my savings account but that doesn't get touched.

I'm with TSB and they never bat an eyelid or block my transactions when I send £1000 to Binance every month so I guess there's that.
They did ask for a 2FA confirmation when I was buying from Koinal tho.

Any recommendations on a good mining pool to join? https://minexmr.com/ and https://nanopool.org/ both look okay so far.

>Fuck Monero

So its pretty obvious monero is being supressed, but why and by who?

>>24621617
powerful people that want to gather as much Monero as possible

Convinced my coworker who is a newb in crypto to purchase 3 XMR. Feels good.

>>24622243
hope he bought below 0.007

>>24621617
by every government in the world

Jesus, bitcoin is so cringe for the last week or two, literally the only thing holding actual crypto adoption back. Awful candles, schizophrenic markets, high fees, this week there were 3 almost 2 hour gaps without blocks. when is this shitcoin finally going to be deleted?

>>24623081
The only way is if the next couple months prove this to be the ultimate double top. If Bitcoin corrects and doesn't follow up with another ass searing moon run it's done. $100k EOY and all the other moonboy shit will be refuted.

>>24622222
WITNESSED!!! BULL MARKET INCOMING!

>>24621617
monero's lack of adoption is entirely the fault of the monero devs, they are incompetent. shoveling a giant pile of shit around and expecting it to be better while they keep adding more cruft is why monero is not taking off.

>>24626673
you dumb nigger, our adoption has grown massively this year. what the hell are you talking about?

>>24626743

you are a fucking moron
I started looking into XMR's code and by God I had a crypto boner
>t.software dev

So I bought a couple thousand XMR in cash a couple years ago. There is no trace left of this purchase.
Since then I have traded those XMR around like a madman, it can't be explained how I got the amount of money I currently hold in cryptos.

What if I want to cash out? Any ideas?
I'd be down to tip in XMR if you can think of good schemes/advice on how to provide "proof of funds".

>>24630422

seconded HIGHLY underrated project
in Lebanon I've mentioned this before since localbitcoins started banning accounts due to sanctions, people started creating telegram communities with a bot system to check reputation of buyers/sellers because it's kinda dangerous to hold cash around here, especially since hyperinflation
your best bet would me localmonero, imo you'd be surprised how aware and conscious about privacy, get a friend with you if any, and afaik localmonero has an escrow but KYC? correct me if I'm wrong anons

and I would be damned if whales and these "suppressors" weren't doing massive OTC trades to manipulate the prices

>>24630254
Because Monero is the closest feeling to what holding Bitcoin was like in the early 10s. It's mysterious; it's only used by weird nerds, austrian econ supporters, and drug addicts; and it's a pioneering new form of cryptography. I love when I hear people talk about how they think it's going to be banned or that private crypto could never work; why? Because what these people are unintentionally doing is projecting their actual feelings about Monero, and these feelings will only grow as Monero's adoption continues to snowball and overtake the marketshare of all transparent cryptos.
>>24630422
First off start up minecraft.
Next, if you actually have your local monero account with the transaction you can at the least indicate that you bought your unknown amount of Monero at whatever time and then you can claim you held that amount. Fiat to crypto is NOT a taxable event, so you technically did nothing wrong here legally.
However, if you took that Monero and then did swing trading you run into some trouble. Percentage wise, how much did you increase your stack from your original purchase? And do you have any record of your original Monero purchase?

You mined it many years ago back when Monero first started and mining was super easy. Then you forgot about the wallet and recently found it again on your computer.

You have to show an "In" into cryptos, as in, where did the crypto you just cashed out come from? Exchanges call that proof of funds.

>>24630468
That could still be reported by the bank, once I do it more often. Random people sending me thousands of bucks, pretty weird.

>>24630807
Not sure this is very believable, but I guess for some people it's a reality. Would probably need to provide SOME proof at least that you mined. How much did people earn anyways back then from mining with a regular PC?

>>24631223
tfw might end up making it

>>24631143
wow that sweater is based
>>24630807
you have to declare mining as income.
We need more info from that anon, but he would probably be okay by just paying a zero cost basis on all of his crypto. If the governmetn is getting tax revenue they probably won't ask too many questions. That being said, if anon is cashing out a fuck load of money (tens of millions) he could get audited, so in that case he needs to find a lawyer or just not cash out and stay in crypto.
>>24631152
Probably not for a while.

I'm not from Ecuador either but nice try

>>24631273
I know a guy who literally mined over 20,000 Monero with his home computer in a span of weeks many years ago. He also didn't hold, but that's beside the point.

>>24631290 is also incorrect. Today, yes, you have to declare mined cryptocurrency as income. But back when you mined it, wink wink, such guidance did not exist, and even if it did, the value at the time you mined it was near-0 so that would have been the value you owed tax on.

>>24631056

>>24631273
you can meet face to face bro, don't use banks
I know I never will again
imo since I never used exchanges unless you are cashing out millions, cash out what you need or as others mentioned, declare mining as an income
hope an anon with experience can chip in on how much it used to earn

>>24631353
>. But back when you mined it, wink wink, such guidance did not exist
interesting thanks for that info.
However, this all depends on how much this anon has. If it is an "eyebrow raising" amount you need to consult a tax expert. You'll probably be fine though. Remember that the people who get fucked are paying nothing in taxes, so if you are actually trying to cash out and pay taxes then you won't get much complaining.
The low hanging fruit are the people attempting money laundering with Bitcoin. There are tens of thousands of them.

>>24619091
>I’m not sort, I have 5k
Anon, I...

>>24631353
I was digging a bit in the original monero thread and people were getting around 2-3 blocks a day with their regular PCs. According to one user, that is roughly 40 monero a day.

The guy you know had to mine for 500 days, unless he had a monster of a machine, but even then, over 20k is unlikely in a couple weeks.

Unless the reward increased heavily in the months/years after launch.

>>24631541
I felt that

>>24631455
It is in fact an exebrow raising amount, consulting a tax expert might be the way to go :/

Not like I want to cash out a lot, just a bit.

Anyone have thoughts on BUCC?

>>24631582
Cashing out is smart anon. You get rewarded for your investment and then you can reinvest back into crypto during the bear market.
If you want to avoid the taxman in minecraft, you can use local monero and trade by cash. If you are trading a lot, use tor and when you trade in person where a mask (easier in today's world kek).
But yeah for large amounts you will have to consult an expert.
There are probably really creative things you can do. Those tax jews know what the fuck is going on.

>>24631685
Yeah man, I’m stacking xmr, but I keep an eye out for privacy related crypto projects

Back then, Monero used a different mining algorithm and the publicly available mining software was not nearly as efficient as it could have been. From what I understand, he wrote his own optimized version of the mining software.

>>24632063
neat, ty

I'm completely new to XMR. I looked into it once and there wasn't any easy to actually hold it. You have to basically run a whole node and allocate some 300 GB or whatever it is for the blockchain on your machine?

Has this changed? Can I easily just setup a local wallet and send to an address now?

>>24633958
you never had to run a node, you could always just connect to any public node with the official wallet

>>24633958
>You have to basically run a whole node and allocate some 300 GB or whatever it is for the blockchain on your machine?
This is not true.
it's recommended for the best overall privacy to do this (the blockchain is a third of the size you think it is) but you can simply connect to a remote node and be fine. You can do this with the GUI, or with any light wallets (light wallets will automatically do this for you). Just know that if you are connecting to a remote node that your IP address can be seen. If that makes you uncomfortable, you can connect to a node through tor.

>>24633958
Another option is to use a remote node when using the GUI like with Cake Wallet (Android / iOS)

NSFW.
Today's transaction all time high!
Look at it lads. It's beautiful.

>>24633958
moneroworld.com has some remote node addresses and instructions. The mobile wallets Monerujo and Cake use remote nodes and make it easy. And the ultimate noob option is the mymonero web wallet. Also the total block chain size is only about 100gb and can be pruned to like 30gb if you need the space.

>>24634220
Is this serious?? I thought Stallman spearheaded the open-source movement. Surely he deserves better.

>>24633958
>Has this changed? Can I easily just setup a local wallet and send to an address now?
You will sync to a remote node by default and don't have to download anything.

Even running a full node with 100GB is pretty manageable in 2020. If you prune it's even less

>>24634188
>if you are connecting to a remote node that your IP address can be seen
but only by that one particular node. All the other nodes won't know anything. They wouldn't even know if the transaction originated from that remote node or if it just relayed it from another node.

>>24634279

me i always think about buying more cheap so it doesn't go up because i think about it
>>24627329
monero does have issues with it's absolute fuckup of a codebase and coding/management practices, the kovri shitfest was quite a good proof of it
Still, it's secure and actually has community paid devs and researchers and continually rolls out features to improve it's core purpose

>>24634279
just checked the website, how the hell does bsv have >250k tx daily?

>>24633958
Download Monero wallet and you can use it already.

You only need to be careful with your antivirus by creating an excempt folder since it gives false positives since forever.

Sup, I'll bite.

I am just learning Monero and that shit. Couple of questions if I am worthy of your time:

1. How do you increase the speed that your computer mines Monero? Do you just buy a better computer? IS there things you can do to tweak it with the command line in the GUI?

2. Are there Monero faucets that work?

3. How do you make the Monero GUI faster. So freaking slow to do the easiest things. Seems like it barely works.

4. Are Monero mining contracts worth it? Where do you get them?

5. Local monero is a cheap way to get monero, or should I do it a different way?

6. Why does it take forever to connect to a local node? I literally have to wait almost a day or more to actually get it to connect.

>>24634712
By doing retarded shit like getting weather data.

Check transactios per day and average transaction and median transaction.

With that data you can get good idea of what's goin on crypto.
Only Bicoin & Ethereum & Litecoin & Bitcoin Cash are moving serious money.

Hard to know what's going on on xmr except that it's price is fair due to using proof of work with randomX ,meaning mining gains are always low and miners are forced to sell.
That and tx per day growing since randomX adoption.

>>24634661
is this bullish or bearish?

>>24634736
>1
XMR uses randomX as its PoW algorithm, which executes (random) instructions in a VM. That means CPU and RAM speed are what you need to optimize.
No real way around this afaik, but make sure you're using XMP for your RAM.
If you want to make a new rig for mining XMR a ryzen machine with the best possible RAM frequency/timings is your best bet.
>2
I doubt it, haven't looked in a while tho
>3
Never had this issue, sorry man, maybe check out the github page for pointers
>4
Probably not, it makes sense for BTC as it's not completely fungible, so you could get 'clean' BTC through a mining contract. Doesn't really make sense for XMR since it's already fungible, unless you're hyper paranoid and think there's some secret tech for deanonymizing monero (probably impossible)
>5
I've heard good things, but I've never used it. other options are Binance and Kraken, if you're alright with the government potentially being able to find out that you own XMR (they still would not be able to figure out what you did with it)
>6
just connecting to the node? that seems excessive, never had that issue, seems like there's something wrong with your wallet in general. That's not the expected behavior. Wish I could help, but I've never had such an issue.

Thanks for the XMP tip, I am about to build a new pc with a 3900x and 3200 cl14 2x8gb. Do you happen to dual mine cpu/gpu? I wanted to mine monero with my cpu and eth with my 1660 super but idk if they will clog one another down significantly...

>>24634896
/xmrgeneral/ OOoooOooo edition

im a straight white male and i jerk off to fluffypony interviews.

am i based?

>>24635822
I would stick to xmrig, xmr-stak team and fireice-uk made one of the longer running and more efficient xmr miners some years ago, xmrig took some of the code (you know, how foss it's supposed to work) and made his own version with the interface of the old school miners instead of the weirdish interface xmr-stak has
Somewhere down the line xmr-stak people made a closed source version of their miner (RagerX) which I believe only works on their pool, promising higher returns
xmrig called them out on the closed source nature of RagerX and how they pushed it as faster, xmr-stak team threw a shitfest too saying that the fee xmrig has on his precompiled binaries was how xmrig stole money from his users
You can compile xmrig without the fee with ease, you even get instructions, dunno if it's easy on windows but on *nix it's just editing a line on the source code and running make on the terminal, the xmr-stak team tells you it's bullshit and that whoever it's telling you to do it that way it's trying to fuck with your mining, which it's yet another red flag on whatever the xmr-stak people make
>>24636136
Dunno' but RagerX being closed source under the promise of being faster and how they publicized sybil attack made me lose trust on them
Still, afaik there's no evidence of actual wrongdoing by the xmr-stak people

>>24636073
>dual mine cpu/gpu xmr/eth
that's exactly what I do, I have my old gaming rig with a 2700x and 1080ti mining eth and xmr simultaneously, works pretty well.
It doesn't seem to affect the hash rate of either too significantly, although depending on your cooling solution that may not be the case. Having both GPU and CPU running a large sustained load is going to kick up a lot of heat.
I have an AIO on both, so it's been mostly fine, still gets way toastier than it ever did when I just played games on it, but both chips are still well within spec and not throttling.

>>24636193
Only if you gently whisper his given name as you climax... Oh, Ricardo

>>24636218
btw xmr-stak people don't believe in monero being private, they only see monero as a cash cow nowadays or are trying to fud you, who knows when they might push an update that mines on their pool with the purpose of a 51% attack (they already did the sybil attack) or when they push malware on their binaries/source code, just look at this crap on their release page
>Q: Why guys that say they want decentralisation want everyone to use one miner?
>A: Because just like privacy it is just an empty marketing slogan, with no relation to what community leaders actually want.
Privacy here links to some shitty wired article on monero
>Q: Why is my "friend" saying that I shouldn't be using free Xmr-Stak-RX or faster RagerX, but instead - go through extra steps to get free xmrig?
>A: This is cryptocurreny world. Everyone is looking out for themselves. What your "friend" is trying to do is advance his social position by giving you bad financial advice. Think with your wallet, don't put yourself at a financial disadvantage to please a guy you have never seen.
By the same logic why would they give you a miner for free that didn't steal from you?
At least they're right on something, they are the ones who developed the optimized miners, xmrig just took that into his own miner iirc (which is how gpl works, fireice-uk acknowledges this tho)

>>24636373
what is their end game exactly?
just a personal grudge? or are they shilling something else?

>>24636514
Probably elicit a double spend panic, force a fork to protect integrity of network, create their own fork in the process, FUD the true fork and dump their XMRv9000 on the fools that believed them.

Can I mine Monero with a AMD FX 4100, GTX 970 and 8gb RAM?

>>24637641
Can you? yeah
Profitably? probably not

>>24637653
What if I bought a FX 8300? I don't have any money now tho, everything went to crypto, lmao.

>>24637641
FX 4100 won't make much if at all and not profitably but if you need an space heater and you heat with electricity mining Monero it's a nice way to reduce the cost of it (or if you have free as in paid by someone else electricity then it will be profitable, CPUs don't degrade if you don't OC them)
Pretty much all of the electricity used by a computer it's turned into heat

>>24637641
Oh, the 970 will fare much better mining something else, RandomX just doesn't werk on GPUs

bump for privacy

Why stuck with just one coin Monero or not, when you can get exposed to the entire crypto market with BASE ?

>>24638197
Shitcoin alert! BASE was called out and exposed. Its curtains for it so take your shill somewhere else ..kek

>>24636373

Okay, so xmrig might be a little bit slower, but it's far less sketch. Got it

I ran xmr-stak precompiled binary - should i reinstall windows or is it probably fine?

>>24638226
Been debasing ever since, two pump chump. An obvious rugpull

>>24638228
it's probably fine desu, afaik they haven't done anything through their precompiled binaries

>>24638287
>>24638226
waronrugs and the other faggots were the ones called out and put where their asses belonged. Couldn't just jerk around without any substance to it. Never shit your own yard when you cant sell it

looks like the one i downloaded was last updated on May 7th.

When was the attack?

>>24638435
The sybil attack was done without usage of the binaries, it was made public by fireice-uk on november 5

>>24635974
Reading the article you sent.

>All things considered, how did the hacker get access to this information? Another tweet could be the key to the answer: Unlike Ciphertrace, they got it from the nodes; basically intercepting the data before it spread through the network.

>If your #monero transaction was stuck in the mempool for a few minutes. I have some bad news – that means it was intercepted by BADCACA

Do Monero nodes not work on a Need-to-know basis and with encryption with PFS similar to Tor?

>laughing with him
>thinks I'm laughing at him

>>24638582
Could the US gov not then just own a high enough % of the XMR nodes transactions bounce off of and log all of them - if they randomly own all the bouncing nodes then would they also not be able to fully retrace it?

Roughly how many nodes are there right now?

https://monero-badcaca.net/
https://www.monerooutreach.org/breaking-monero/
https://news.bitcoin.com/ciphertrace-patents-monero-transactions/

Monero can be tracked, use 0.x.M.R. or PRV

>>24638676
You mean just like how they monitor TOR exit nodes?

That's actually ~5x less than Tor.

I wouldn't be surprised if a good portion of that stack in the US aren't government controlled just for logging

I can't believe the thread is still up
