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

[dEBRUYNE]

Got a question: Are there any XMR wallet apps available via Tor's browser (onion network)? Which is the best and reliable?

As always, was scrolling through the twitter feed. Found a tweet (https://twitter.com/brale_core/status/1147838919364501505) where a guy claims some messenger browser app to be available via .onion, which makes it possible to access & use this messenger's blockchain net with about no chances to leak the user IPs *as it happens to P2P com apps like whatsApp or telegram*. I'm a pretty much geek on privacy topic so it took me for a while, unless I reminded myself about how the Monero's being used in our days. That is, in fact, all xmr wallet apps I know are held by commercial-like companies. And, what's more creepy, many of them are working from jurisdictions like USA/EU/China, which are you know... those Snowy days...

So the usage of apps like this is easy to be tracked & stored. And the apps like Monero core or electrum-like is not really adapted for reliable proxies/VPN support, neither the Tor. Not to mention that the nodes are instantly receiving the sender's client IP and whatever viruses can those white hats produce.

So, for now, I'm asking myself if I or anyone else can go use Monero wallet with any percentage of non-tracking guarantees of my device, which is for me, the Tor network. Are there any Tor web-wallets or anyone has a wish to start one? I have absolutely no idea why's everyone talking on those 'gorgeous' blockchain privacy features, just keeping to use some iOS USA-based wallets...

You can run the official GUI on Tails (either with a local node or a remote node):

GUI v0.14.1.0 'Boron Butterfly' (with Ledger Nano X and Trezor Model T support) released!

https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/c8eg6k/gui_v01410_boron_butterfly_with_ledger_nano_x_and/

Is this a mandatory update or not?

Mandatory are the ones that changes number after first zero. so from 0.13.0  to 0.14.0.   Upgrades that goes from 0.14.0 to 0.14.1 are usually just some bug fixes.

Hi I have a question about which is the most confidential between Monero XMR and Cloak CLOAK?

Hello. You can read this. https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/6fed9p/monero_vs_cloak/.
And you can also compare blockchain explorers https://chainz.cryptoid.info/cloak/ and https://moneroblocks.info. You can see transaction amount is hidden only on Monero's explorer. So I would say it is Monero, but I think you're asking this question in the wrong thread... A big percentage of users in this thread might be biased.

However I have a question regarding Monero Blockchain explorer. Why are there only 2 outputs/inputs? Should be there more of them because of Ring signatures? https://moneroblocks.info/tx/50b25ba947b559671e182bc54776d328155a562aaa5591b5c39dd3547f4e3645

Sometimes I question whether you're just having fun or you really have these obsessive vendettas against certain non-Bitcoin coins. I lean that you're just getting your jollies trolling, but man you sure do a good job acting like a truly obsessed lunatic.

"" The project aims to develop generic online scanner/searcher for Monero. Its possible capability includes searching for:

outputs associated with given address and viewkey (already implemented with full support for subaddresses),
possible spendings based on only address and viewkey,
transactions which use our outputs as decoys/ring members,
transactions associated with given legacy payment ids,
multi-output transactions to subaddresses,
transactions with integrated payment ids,
and more ... ""

I’m hearing rumours about privacy coins possibly getting delisted. Are exchanges compliant to the (coming) regulations when they have privacy coins on their trading options? Or are these all false rumours?

I am going to post this ad nauseum until it sticks:

People often like to purport that Monero will inevitably get banned. However, the new FinCEN guidance is basically inconsistent with that notion. From the CoinCenter article:

Section 4.5.3 states that exchanges are not per se banned from using privacy-preserving cryptocurrencies but will need to comply with the same BSA regulations they comply with for typical cryptocurrencies. We believe that this is possible. Exchanges need to know their customers but they do not have a black letter law requirement to know the customers of their customers. In other words, a bank needs to know who you are but they are not obligated to know the name and address of people that you pay using cash you withdraw from your account.

https://coincenter.org/entry/fincen-s-new-cryptocurrency-guidance-matches-coin-center-recommendations

Arguably, this is long-term bullish for Monero.

Additionally, Tari Labs is creating an open source framework for listing Monero as well as educating regulators.

This is actually surprising. Localbitcoin removes XMR due to its anon nature, while US-based Poloniex allows to buy it with a credit cards.

Thats because it is a Honey Pot. I'm going to have to post this ad-nauseum as well.

They plan to release a desktop version in the foreseeable future.

Do you know when exactly? There is an ETA? In short in 2020 or in 2025?

They did not provide an ETA, but I am reasonably certain 2020 is way more likely than 2025 :-P

Are you sure? In crypto 2025 is more likely than 2020 generally

The third audit (by X41) of RandomX has successfully been completed!

https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/ca71ok/randomx_audit_statuas/

Can one still use this algo to install malware to run on a website so that website visitors mine XMR with the users CPU?
Wasn't there any consideration to the algorithm that would negate this specific security issue with XMR and why is this not mentioned in the audit?

thanks.

LOL, there is NO algo that cannot be mined through javascipt making one is impossible. if you are questioning whether the old cryptonote that was being mined on some websites are still viable then the answer is NO. Sounds to me like your just trying some left handed fuD though so i'll go grab me a few m0ar and wait for the spike.
