I have seen that at same time the https://miningpoolstats.stream/monero shown a 42% (not 51%), so I would rather trust that 42% number (it can not be faked?).

I think that you are wrong. My source is https://xmrig.com/benchmark/ Go somewhere to the middle of the page (to get rough middle performance CPU). For example I can see: 984 Intel® Core™ i5-10500T CPU @ 2.30GHz (6 threads CPU). I click it and mean hashrate is 1839. Divide that by 3, you have 613 hashes.

it’s practically free to run the miner

I mostly agree, except no PoW mining is free. It requires to pay electricity, which is obvious.

According to the attacking pool statistics (can be wrong and faked), their pool reeched 51% of the XMR hashrate, but at same time, https://miningpoolstats.stream/monero shown a 42% share of that pool. So the difference is pretty big. I would rather trust that 42% number (it can not be faked?). We should mine and do not promote that selfish mining pool.

1/3 of the regular CPU resources is around 1000 hashes per second according to my calculation. We would need 1 million such users to produce 1 gigahash per second. The 51% attack currently needed around 3 gigahash per second.

All the Proton software which you can install is open source. It makes sense to have some internal software source code not disclosed.

Many people wants to use AI and this is a private alternative and so feels like appropriate part of the Proton's ecosystem.

It speaks foreign language well and is not much factually accurate. Design is good.

 

When i click a RSS reader icon on the homepage https://lemmings.world/ then the URL is like https://lemmings.world/feeds/front/......long string here.....xml?sort=Active and it triggers a download, not display of my Firefox-ESR RSS reader extension (called "Brief"). Other RSS feed like one linked from sub-lemmy https://lemmings.world/c/protonprivacy@lemmy.world is displayed properly.

When I click a Brief icon in address bar of a https://lemmings.world/, then I get correctly subscribed.

When I compare subscribed feed URL with the URL of the on-page button, they are identical.

How this issue can be fixed?

 

Proton.me: "We will be adding Monero as a payment option for our VPN plans by the end of Summer 2025. Source: https://x.com/davidgpeterson/status/1941500514803548636" https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/935538-accounts-payments/suggestions/33188971-monero-payment-option

 

My bank as many others charging high currency conversion fees of several % of the automatically converted amount.

What if trading partner refusing to send additional payment worth 3% of the previously sent amount to cover his mistake?

What can be a likely outcome for me of yours recommended action?

Thank you

 

For example cryptocurrency wallet seed phrase. One can add it to the notes field (password field is occupied by my wallet password).

I can also add new field of type "hidden" to the login entry, where i need to click eye icon in order to reveal the content.

Beside login items, there are also Notes items, which does not seems to feature hidden field.

I assume that in terms of security all field types (password, note) and all entries (login, note) are equally secured.

But the field which is not password or a hidden note of the login item, are more vulnerable due to someone look behind your back or due to a computer client-side scanning (spyware third party or built in OS made to screenshot ones screen)?

What is your suggestion on storage of a super-sensitive data like crypto. wallet seeds?

 

I can not see into the device nor into app code (even if app has open source?), it may be unlikely, but maybe malicious official HW wallet application can be instructed to transmit private key or a seed phrase from the wallet to the manufacturer/third party? Is there any article on this topic?

 

When I am following a person A on social network X and person B retweets person A post, it means that on my timeline is that post 2 times, a duplicity. How can i fix this issue in X settings, if that is possible?

 

Hello, for example other trade party sent me SEPA bank transfer in correct amount, maybe even mentioning their name in a transfer note (matching their name in RetoSwap trade details), but the sending account number is different from what they have in RetoSwap.

Please kindly tell me what to do, all the cases and how to handle these cases and ideally why?

For example I can copy paste the transfer detail to the chat and ask the trade party if this transfer is theirs. And if they confirm, I can mark the money as received assuming it causes no risk for me. But what if the party does not respond and the allowed trade time-frame expires?

 

On my years old free X account, I have been active in last days posting replies to other people (important politicians which gets many replies to their posts) comments (I mean politician posts, other person reply it and I reply to this reply), me adding around 30 replies in maybe 36 hours.

Interesting is that after these few days, when I go to https://x.com/me/likes I can not see a single like or a reply, yet my replies were thoughtful and opposing other people opinion. I have used secondary browser where I am not logged-in (Tor browser) to check couple posts if I can see my replies and I could see it. When I have been last active on X, before around 7 months, I see that I have got a reply to my comment.

On my recent comments, I can see a button with a vertical bars (like an analytics), yet it says that something went wrong, when I click it. Maybe some of my browser extensions blocks it.

In recent days, I have changed my account important/security settings and X not allowed me to change my email/password. Also my comments usually contains one or even two links to prove my claim, so that may also looks spammy.

Shadow ban? I have checked https://hisubway.online/shadowban/ and https://taishin-miyamoto.com/ShadowBan/ with no problem detected.

https://help.x.com/en/forms does not show any relevant contact category where I would ask. Any idea what to try please?

 

ISSUE: I have been watching SELL XMR for fiat (SEPA) tab of the RetoSwap (Haveno fork) for a couple of weeks and there is rarely an offer below 3% fee. Most offers are around predatory 6% fee.

Since there is low amount of offers, some people put the 9% or similar dirty fee and this seems to be pushing up the average % rate of the future offers, making the Haveno not a good option for trading. When trading reversible pair, you do not want to create your offer, because you can not select with whom to trade by placing a limit on your trading partner (like account age and such).

SUGGESTION: Maybe if the maximum allowed spread from a market price is set to 2.5% or similar, there would be less predators and more people who really want to do the fair/market price trade. As a newbie when you open the app and see the SELL/BUY spread for fiat like 12%, it is pretty bad place to trade.

 

https://unstoppableswap.net / https://github.com/UnstoppableSwap/core makers (i do not mean a SW developers, but swap providers) seems to have swap markup (assuming a fee) of around 3% which is too expensive and along with the limits on amount of traded coin pretty unusable IMO. Am I missing any makers or source for it which allows near zero fees/markup? Why such makers are not available (by default)?

I am currently using RetoSwap https://github.com/retoaccess1/haveno-reto which allowed me to place and complete the BTC and ETH exchange to XMR at 0% fee. (only paying regular Monero tx fee for a temporary custody)

How to setup an UnstoppableSwap maker? Is it this https://github.com/UnstoppableSwap/core/blob/master/dev-docs/asb/README.md . I do not see any easy to understand tutorial for layman which would tell me the requirements (evaluate the cost) + be easily understandable.

 

Do You have any comment on these claims about Haveno?

1

they don't allow to use external wallets such as OpenMonero to post arbitration bonds from, thus making haveno-reto less secure then OM.

HuggingChat AI comment:

Arbitration bonds are a crucial component of Haveno dispute resolution mechanism, and requiring users to hold funds within Haveno own wallet might increase the risk of centralization. However, it is essential to consider the reasoning behind this design choice. Perhaps the developers aimed to simplify the user experience or reduce the attack surface by limiting wallet interactions.

2

In my opinion, Haveno-reto is not decentralized at all, bc order book is not shared between instances.

 

I see that my cryptocurrency to cryptocurrency trade period is 1 day. It can happen that my cryptocurrency payment (made to the wallet of other user) is not confirmed during that 1 day period. So what happens next?

The tooltip says that when the period is exceeded, both parties can open a dispute. But that does not give me any idea about how this is handled and what are the risks. I am unable to find the answer at https://docs.haveno.exchange/the-project/trade-protocol/?query=trade+period
