NOOOOOOOOOOoooooo...... it's over
then just sell it for bitcoin, and the more sellers than buyers there are it will take it down to the toilet
this would increase the scarcity of Monero, and make it so there is no one able to sell it, making it pump hard and out price bitcoin and make the current monero holders rich LOL (jk ofc)
Yes, the problem is layers and protocols like coinjoins just split devs and users and there's too much to keep track of, and hence there's separate teams and some small in size that end up failing where others weren't even looking, while on monero all devs and all users only have to develop and worry about monero's only code, or separate implementations of the same thing like in rust, which creates room for even more security strategies I.e. differential fuzzing etc
liquid was a "L2", so being lazy about security just because "oh well it's just an L2 anyway" is going to make this keep happening, and affecting those passing by the layers even if "damn you should have moved to L1 in time, shit happens", monero's approach is being aggressive in its security **because** it's an L1 and cannot fail at all, it's not a playground for tech
yes. or going back to banking, getting fiat jobs, etc, after getting a taste of freedom once
frontier labs treat AI safety by inspiring themselves on banks. so it's not surprising they think progress needs to slow down at some point, just like how banks don't want a too private too anonymous money to exist because it is dangerous, enables crime, enables tax evasion, and we can extrapolate that this will take us into anarcho capitalism and that means everyone will be able to own nukes in their backyard lol. Stop it because "think of the nukes!!" but in reality banks and frontier labs don't want to protect you, they want to control you
accelerate open source

monero users come from the same place as bitcoiners, and future eCashers for fiatjaf, but maybe with a more aggressive approach, and gravitated here because we can just share notes and other stuff via relays without asking for permission :D maybe we need permission from relay operators, but relays are like roads in ancapistan
no more zaps
#nevent1q…nv3a
how far we've come
#nevent1q…qs60
discovering that the end goal is small communities is like when you are into anarcho capitalism and find out about Hoppe and first discover about covenant communities and that it's not meant to become a "global freedom open border" thing

for those wondering why Monero is the only thing that has been safe from any AI or super intelligence finding vulnerabilities so far. No inflation bug, no double-spend, no de-anonymization.
Victims so far: lightning (CLN), lightning swaps (boltz), lightning again (BTCPayServer), Liquid Network, COLDCARD, Zcash (inflation bug)
Only real bitcoin, and monero, survived past 2026
Overkill or get killed

depends what people want, if just tipping it shoud be called tips or something, zap was supposed to be a nostr published event so we all see in the network "Hey look Alice zapped Bob", to support actual zaps it needs something like xmrchat: https://xmrchat.com/xenu , that's for the receiver to prove though but maybe the sender's wallet could also support sending + creating a zap by itself and the receiver only needs the address on the payment target, but the sender needs a specific wallet or all wallets need to support the scheme, so the best way to implement it is the biggest challenge, it doesn't have a L2 and it is not needed but one may happen in a future development so that could copy how lightning works today if used
yeah, for lightning I'm not sure how can zaps be proven not fake but payments on the blockchain are much easier and only one sides needs to prove it and we all can verify forever
basically imagine if twitter users could comment on discord messages
they are still calling it zaps but it just allows seeing the address lol but a cool feature to support
Isn't lightning also private?
Yeah the idea is that a private payment network can choose to be transparent but their balances for example is safe, and what happens to the money after too, or where it came from, etc

#nevent1q…amen
nostr was created by an eCasher heh
nowadays I see more and more people saying how they get more tips in payment targets than lightning, at some point zaps will become a legacy feature and something else has to replace it for tipping signaling, in whatever payment target of choice, or just private tips will be default forever
Let's start with a lot of coffee and go from there
Fuck. https://github.com/zedeus/nitter all archived already. rip
because they found something no one cared about but that had a strong narrative so pumping it was a no brainer, it was deep down in coin mkt cap, always overshadowed by monero, and the tech was good for this very narrow window, like really they had to take advantage of this little window of time they had from 2025 up to 2027 when zcash had better tech than monero (with the irony that it was broken and had inflation bugs), which will come to an end after fcmp++ hits mainnet and they go back to having nothing special at all, but at least they got rich in the process
right now this is the person that needs the best OPSEC ever known to man, better OPSEC even than a DNM admin, and he's using technology to the fullest like we probably have never seen before: issued a memecoin to measure its market cap and create "governance" and even stake voting systems, is using another crypto arweave for decentralized storage, and monero for payments and contacting.
We've never seen this before because people are usually too ideological, i.e. let's just use ethereum for everything, host the website on ethereum, use ens, tornado cash, etc, or let's just be bitcoin/monero maxis, but this guy said fuck it and was like "what if I just use what works" and this may be why this may go down as one of the most successful heists up to november when the game fully launches and he can disappear, kinda ironic for a heist this good against GTA itself, bro is Lester himself
#nevent1q…ecde
it's where you set things
lol the GTA 6 leaker, who allegedly has a full build of the game after writing his own name by shooting at a wall, is now asking for Monero in order to contact him and make requests, of course

yes, someone going straight to chatgpt and just posting the result online because it's free and fast is peak lack of interest in your own thing lol you could at least try canva instead of chatgpt and use a built-in template or something, you don't need a huge time or money investment but the effort you put in will definitely translate to how people perceive it from outside so anything is better than nothing

lol you would be the first one to ban monero posters from your relays
ah Ctrl+V spam, like the good old times, the kids are alright
There are proposals for bitcoin-like instant sync for monero, but it goes along those lines of social layer and shared secret: https://gist.github.com/tevador/9169235b3c0c97e735f58a8c2ba92502
I think it would be cooler if they could receive tips/zaps in other coins if people want to send a few to them, then they can use it, play with it, sell it, dump it all, and try it that way, it also feels like a gift that you received not a thing you bought and has to sell for "lost value" in the process, with a gift you at least end up slightly better than where you were before it, so it's a winwin
tbm não
pesquisei uma entrevista dele pela primeira vez e realmente dá pra ouvir o sotaque brasileiro no inglês dele
nvk é br? ou qual o contexto
how could OpenAI and Anthropic not review my terrible commit from 2021, I thought it was fine because it "just runs"!!?
#nevent1q…7r2t
LMAO he is his worst enemy
There used to be a monero wallet that did this it was called Rino and was pretty good but unfortunately closed down due to being unprofitable
And vulnerabilities can always be reported for some bounty money too, so there was an alternative to not end up like this
I became aware of this later lol I didn't know the whole lore but every time a company behaves like this, this is what happens, in crypto this is what thorchain did too. always need to be aware of how companies treat security researchers before buying their products
