[XMR] Monero - A secure, private, untraceable cryptocurrency

[smooth]

Looking forward to finding out if Tomaso Aste is Nicolas van Saberhagen, who just happens to have the same initials as Nick Szabo!

Look, these guys are lying scammers; that is pretty well proven. I have no reason to believe whoever they stick up there to shill is actually the original inventor, and if it is, well that's just one more person identifed as a lying scammer.

Tomaso Aste seems legit, perhaps even a potential Satoshi:

I should have clarified that. Cryptonote are the lying scammers. I don't know if Aste has anything to do with them. For the sake of his otherwise good (as far as I know) reputation, I hope not.

How do you generate a Payment ID with simple wallet?  Or can you?

this is what i do:

Code:

openssl rand -hex 32

I don't know if Aste has anything to do with them. For the sake of his otherwise good (as far as I know) reputation, I hope not.

I guess we're going to find out on the 30th.  Better have the hot air popper loaded and ready for action!

Anybody here attending P2PFISY?  We may have some suggestions for Saberhagen's CryptoNote v2.0 Q&A...

You can't, afaik, but you can use this website:
https://www.grc.com/passwords.htm

Payment id is just a 64 character hex string, so you can just grab what's in the "64 random hexadecimal characters (0-9 and A-F)" field.

Always liked Gibsons work. Does everything in assembler.

There are very few sites accepting XMR. Other than exchanges https://www.cryptocoins-dice.com/ is the only one I know about.

I started on the offcial MEW website a list of Monero-accepting merchants and services, both online and offline.

https://xmrmonero.com/forum/en/monero-accepted-here

I will later make a webpage out of it, I just need some time (and the publication queue is already several day long). If a merchant or service you know is not present, please leave a comment.

In the future I imagine there will be coin control features in wallets so you would be able to say "just move these coins"

If we start to worry about particular coin, then it means fungibility is not as good as expected. I'm not saying coin control is bad (I'm a big fan of it on a different crypto), just that the need for it is symptomatic of a shortcoming on the fungibility of Monero.

I imported the missives on xmrmonero.com. This allowed me to validate the tagging system.
https://xmrmonero.com/tags/monday-monero-missives

They are also present in the news sections - news differs from blogs in that the latter is for random monero-related news by MEW members, whilst the former is more official.

On other news: 1000 pages is a milestone! 20K posts and probably among the highest signal-to-noise ratio.

Go Monero!
