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

Somebody was talking that there will be xmr hard fork already on 15th january. Is there any link for that?

That was last year.

There is a routine hard fork every 6 months though.

Hi guys im doing some calculations to rebalance my Portfolio at the Moment. Can anyone of you maybe tell me the number of currently mined Moneros? Because coinmarket cap is not correct with most of their numbers about the market cap
Thanks a lot!

A little over 15 585 000.

The first link however is interesting. I wasn't aware of that. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.

Meh, I told them RPC was an attack vector years ago and my statements were ignored and then I was told not to worry about it as 0mq was coming to the rescue. I also tried to vet 0MQ but did not get cooperation in my attempts so gave up. Hopefully it was professionally vetted but my questions on the subject were never answered. I just got trolled about using the term wrapper for the interface and got sick of trying. Also I was making an argument for this, which I am glad was the end result.

In addition, the official Monero GUI doesn't use the RPC layer, and directly implements the libwallet_api for all its wallet functions.

I recall those events. In the end its hard to separate the willing from the trolls at points.

And, I think, the team have largely moved off to their own  forum. Just us stubborn guys still here echoing.

The Monero community has been looking forward to hardware wallet integration for some time now. A community member is currently working on a self-developed project. Furthermore, Ledger has confirmed they will add XMR support. Up until now, there was no real deadline for finalizing this integration. The developer working on it is advancing significantly. In fact, the integration may be completed sooner than people assume.

I want a hardware wallet anyway, will Trezor need a new version to support Monero? or a software release?

[xxxgoodgirls]

Hello there, is that far the integration with Trezor or Ledger nano?
I really see strong fundamentals on XMR, thank yu to everybody who's contribuiting to the project.

Pretty sure ledger will have it done first, but IDK. I don't follow trezor as much anymore.

Yep, You kids get off my lawn!

Also Smooth is still here which is great to see as that's the DEV I trust the most, I don't interact with alot of them as a disclaimer.

I see a lot of websites are running layers where a Monero miner is running in background. Is something the Monero community is supporting? I don't like it at all.

this totally sucks
i've even saw mining as a CAPTCHA 
Browser are already implementing NoMine Features ...

That same thing happened to me last week when I tried to preach anti-semitism in this orthodox temple! The fascists man. They are everywhere.

No I'm kidding. It's good that you do this. They can still make the same mistake. But atleast now they cant say nobody warned them.

0MG!!! this is horrible! Sell!!!

Hey I asked a serious question here. I want Monero to succeed, but if the potential bugs and potential future encryption weaknesses are not adressed, then it won't. All it takes is 1 vulnerability in the protocol, and every transaction becomes deanonymized. Kind of a massive risk, for a privacy coin.

I agree.  We should all panic dump and nobody should ever buy Monnero again!

The Monerro Enterprise Alliance is worse than if the Ethereum Foundation and Dash Core mated and produced a scam-baby.

I hold both Dash and Monero, so we shall see which one performs better.

The first link however is interesting. I wasn't aware of that. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.

There was something else too, I can't find the link, where there was some bug in the previous hardforked editions that is why one of the hardforks happened to fix that bug.

It didn't deanonymized Monero, but it severely weakened the encryption scheme.

It has been fixed ,but we don't know whether something similar will happen in the future, that is why I am concerned.

[profitgenerator212]

This criticism makes it sound like you are talking about ZCash not Monero.

Hahah, Zcash is not even worth discussing 

That post is from last year. This issue has long since been addressed, and only applied to people running RPC wallets (generally exchanges, etc.) and even then only in an insecure setting (no isolated VM/container, same system as a browser, etc.)

Also this was not any sort of "encryption" or cryptography bug, and arguably not a bug at all. If you tell the wallet to open up a port to listen for commands (is not, and never was the default behavior), then you better secure access to the port.

Wasn't it like the latest Electrum bug where any wallet was exposed to theft if they ran a website together with the wallet.

In the Electrum bug the wallet was exposed just with an open Firefox window.

Wasn't that the case for Monero in that past year bug? I am confused about the RPC stuff.

+1 signature post well played


Dash.... nah I wont bother for a change.





We better fix these imaginary problems quickly!


WTF are they doing in the research group. Writing and testing white papers and concepts, when they should be imagining and presuming things.

Signature post? Do you realize that I haven't posted on this forum for months, if I would be after signature referrals, I would have not been inactive for so long.

No, I have just bought more Monero a couple weeks ago, and my Monero holdings are now big enough to be concerned about risks like that.

Yeah so I must be a troll for pointing out potential risks here ,which have already happened in the past by the way, so I am not pulling things out of my ass.

Lucky you have your dash bro, nothing dodgy there.


All the best.
