Please share if you've built the latest release from source or have any other insights on when Haveno will be ready to use.

Their subreddit, website, twitter (x), etc have no recent updates which is why I'm posting this here. Maybe their matrix server is more active but I haven't checked yet.

Full release on mainnet should be here very soon but that's about all I know. Can't wait!

Hi,

First of all happy 10 years anniversary to Monero!

Is there active research and plans to implement Monero quantum resistance?

As far as I'm concerned I think the quantum threat is by far the most important challenge for monero.

Indeed not only becoming quantum resistant will be important but the timing is crucial.

If quantum capabilities start to skyrocket and Monero is not Quantum resistant yet, then there could start to be uncertainties about Monero supply. In fact since Monero is private, it's the only crypto whose supply is not 100% verifiable so the more we wait the more the supply uncertainty will increase and that's something that cannot be retroactively corrected.

(That's something I had covered on my youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X\_waXHRovbE**)

Once the uncertainty becomes too important it will be too late, that's why I believe this is the greteast challenge and risk for Monero. It's not talked about often compared to delisting/ban talks although delisting/ban risk is not a real threat to Monero existence. Maybe focus should be on quantum.

I'm not using the Matrix server at the moment, it would be nice if someone can relay this post on the Matrix dev chat and let us know answers.

Have a great day

hello,

i want to donate some xmr to the 'monero project' ('general fund'), here :

for the coming monero anniversary (18 april)

but the qr code does not work (is not recognized) by the app wallet (on mobile).

i have tested with mymonero wallet, cake wallet, monerujo wallet.

this is not the best way to encourage donations, for those of us who use mobile wallets...

the qr codes of trocador are recognized by these app wallets, so i know that the problem is not on my side...

maybe somebody here knows the person who updates the website ?

just to let you know...

i will try again later...

edit : there is a qr code which works / is recognized on this webpage :

and this is the same address than on the 'donate' webpage.

Hi all, I've recently updated cryptotalks.ai to have a chatgpt-like interface at cryptotalks.ai/chat

Now, you can deposit monero and talk to AI models like GPT4, Claude 3, and ~150 other models in your browser. No credit card or emails required. Hopefully this makes AI more accessible to those who value privacy or who don't have access to the traditional financial system.

Please enjoy and send me any feedback you have about cryptotalks.ai!

r/Cryptocurrency just posted this video In the meantime, Thailand is launching a government-backed digital wallet with a government-backed "crypto baht" as an experiment (to what use?). 500 billions baht of "crypto baht" will be credited to wallets in increments of 10,000 baht (approximately US$275.00) for citizens to use, but only for specific products at specific shops: , and also, there is this: . All of this cannot be good. It will not be used for the common good and it will not end well for many.

Full Chain Membership Proofs and Beyond w/ Luke Parker aka KayabaNerve (MT 308)

TODAY'S 🎙SHOW: In this episode Douglas Tuman interviews Luke Parker (aka "KayabaNerve”) as part of a Monerotopia segment. Normally we don’t publish the MoneroTopia special guest segments as a MoneroTalk, but this one is not to be missed!

Luke offers some mind bending insights into the development, implementation , and implications of Full Chain Membership Proofs (FCMPs). Luke describes what he sees as being the path toward implementing them into Monero prior to the Seraphis upgrade. They cover the potential timeline for implementation, with Luke aiming to have it ready within six months, and the possibility of presenting the completed work at the next Monerotopia conference!

What are the Monero community's suggestions for mitigating the negative effects of network spamming attacks that we've seen recently?

I'll start with one:

Adjusting the algorithm for choosing decoy inputs such that probability of selecting a decoy is inversely proportionate to the extra (above normal) amount of transactions. Thus, making it less likely that Black Marbles are chosen as decoy inputs.

Obviously, how this is determined to be 'above normal' number of transactions will have to be fine tuned, and it won't mitigate against, what I think has probably already been an ongoing issue (since it's so obvious), an attack which doesn't see a sudden huge flood of transactions, but a steady build up of volume so that it looks indistinguishable from organic growth.

*An alternative of this suggestion, would be to have dynamic ring size (with a minimum of 16, but dynamically increases if one or more of the included decoys is from a period when there are a higher number of transactions that usual so that an attacker gains nothing, in terms of de-anonymisation, by having a greater percentage of Black Marbles in the total pool of transactions, but I think that it would be better to implement the first method that I proposed (or some variant of it).

Anyway, what other suggestions do we have?

Big 100kb transactions (lemmit.online)

Right now the mempool is full of 148 in / 2 out transactions. Each of these huge transactions are ~100kb, so with the ~300kb median block size limit only 3 of them can fill the block (eg. 3128134, 3128130, 3128129).

There might be a new kind of flood attack in preparation. Stay sharp

I was digging into Monero's past and I am particularly interested in the origins of CryptoNote at the moment. There was a forum at cryptonote.org but it's all down now and snapshots of wayback machine don't go far enough (e.g. this link mentioned: ), but the earliest snapshot of this topic for example is 2016 and it already says "The requested topic does not exist." ( ).

I wanted to touch on a few things and get some feedback. I wouldn't post this unless I had good reason to suspect it's all related to a state actor, as I'm not a fan of FUD. Please spread this far and wide so the community can be made aware, I don't know that this post will stay up. I would post on monero.town but don't have an account and it requires an application and/or paying a small fee, and at the moment I don't feel comfortable s(p)ending any monero. I'd appreciate if someone could post this in the tor subreddit as well, and any related forums. We need more eyes on this.

XMR Attack: First, we all know of the attack on XMR which is likely a Black Marble flooding attack designed to reduce as many legitimate ring signatures as possible, making statistical analysis much easier, possibly even after the attack ends. See CCS - Rucknium Statistical Research. There was the ability to monitor statistically significant transactions before to gain knowledge of target (for parallel reconstruction), this attack just makes it much easier and more accurate.

Tor attack: There is yet another new attack against tor nodes that allows crashing them at will. This could always be done via DDoS, but there is general mitigation against that and it's very loud. This simply makes the targeted node(s) unusable. There are mitigation scripts, but for at least a few weeks/months state actors could perform packet inspection and crash all nodes that weren't theirs. Even after applying mitigation scripts, node operators are having trouble keeping up with the evolving attack.

I use Whonix to watch in the Onion Circuts GUI and have noticed a great deal of timeouts and failures over the past few months, always ending up with many of the same nodes as middle/exit nodes. About half the time I'll end up with a new guard node and a change of VPS location (multihop and obfuscated) will allow my normal guards back again for a short period before they start timing out again.

More tor worry: I will often times have the same name (but different key) nodes for middle and exit nodes, for example the prsv or atrikle10 or the Monero named nodes. I don't know if this is truly an issue, if state actor nodes could hypothetically work with each other (i.e. all prsv nodes -- although I am NOT saying prsv is a state actor) or if it's the IP address and key that matters. Tor also raised the number of nodes that can be run from the same IP address to 4, and then raised it again to 8, to combat the ongoing DDoS attacks in what seems to be a worrying trend of availability over privacy.

There may also be a vulnerability of insecure DH Key Exchange over a month old which has not yet been responded to.

CLOUDFLARE + tor: If you monitor your circuits and have connected to a cloudflare-proxied site, you will notice that most or all of your circuits are flooded with randomly generated clflarexxxxxxx.onion addresses, a huge number of them, per service that uses cloudflare. This is because of the "Onion Proxy" feature in Cloudflare, which is enabled by default on all Cloudflare-proxied websites. This effectively destroys the circuit selection mechanism within tor, and makes any DoS attack even more damaging. Normally, a hidden service connection has six hops (three chosen by client, three chosen by hidden service). Hypothetically, if Cloudflare has modified their hidden service connections to use only their own nodes for speed, then this would mean all hidden service connections are only using 3 hops, and also flooding the circut selection mechanism. In my understanding, this would be a godsend for any actor able to do DPI on Cloudflare traffic.

Edit: Here is another question I've had for some time, if anyone is able to answer it on a technical level. Services like Trocador and Orangefren are great, but if they were compromised, would it make statistical detection of ring signatures easier? Even if the services they list aren't compromised, if Trocador knows the amount of XMR you're getting from LTC, and the time/block the transaction happens, does that narrow down the statistical likelyhood of it being your transaction on a technical level? If so, how much would it help to wait a day and send a majority of your funds from that wallet to another wallet you own, leaving a small amount behind?

I heard from a few people that we should increase Monero fees. My take was always to be observant as there doesn't seem to be a need for a rushed decision - if at all. Often staying with the status quo is the best we can do even if it means short term pain. Obviously the other can be true as well. Taking on some change that will generate some short term pain in order to bring forward long term gains (e.g. delisting on CEX and building of DEX ecosystem/liquidity, Seraphis address changes, FCMP increased tx size).


There are a couple of things that we should consider, though.

  1. We do not know the objective(s) of the attacker(s)
  2. We do not know the budget of the attacker(s)
  3. We do not know the attacker(s)

Without knowing those parameters we will risk fixing something that doesn't need fixing while creating social or technical problems that might be much harder to fix later or even worse turn out to be net negative.

  1. FCMP will have much bigger tx than today (especially before Seraphis). As fees are calculated with byte size, this will have an effect of increased fees.
  2. Haveno and other DEX need low frees to be attractive for traders to provide plenty of liquidity as tx fees are cutting into the profit margin if too high (see mediocre adoption of bisq at least partially thanks to high BTC fees).
  3. Haveno and other DEX also will increase the number of tx anyways. So this might as well be seen as a stress test we can learn from.
  4. Prices are currently suppressed. And as fees are not paid in USD but XMR they will rise with price just like in BTC, BCH, LTC
  5. If we increase now, we create a precedent that needs to be very wisely argumented (to not be misused as a central planners tool, especially if the need for whatever reason arises again to then reduce the fees).
  6. We don't know the attackers budget. If it is a state attacker able to tap into infinite fiat money we will never price out the attacker, but price out actual use cases and make it more expensive for the community countering the poisoning attacks through community churning/ self-sends.

I hope these points help everybody understand a little better the trade-offs we face by action and inaction alike.
