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

[Sat0shisGhost]

I only track transactions, identities, and if they watch kinky porn. But sure you can escalate that attack, there are dozens way to track Monero, you say so yourself https://www.monerooutreach.org/breaking-monero/

There's a few transactions in here that I'm 100% sure you have the wrong originating IP address for. If you rexpert at track Monero then you should at least be able to weed them out.

[nullius]

However, unless badcaca coughs up something credible, I must conclude that I should avoid wasting more time here:

That is an excellent idea mate  

The real reason why I decided to apply a double-barrelled shotgun to an ant is that (a) the monero_badcaca OP received a merit from a security-ignorant, technically inept admitted hallucinogenic drug user who, alas, is a DT with an unaccountably high reputation; (b) a technical forum member with real skills, whose judgment in such matters I respect, made a neutral remark to the effect that it would be interesting to look at this when he has spare time (to look at what? —I am seeking something to look at here); (c) another DT took it very seriously (surprising to me).

There is an awful lot of noise in the altcoin forum.  I would not ordinarily waste my time.  If monero_badcaca has something real to show, then he needs to show it so that people’s privacy can be protected—whereas if this is just fireice_uk/ryocoin-style trolling, then it is a quite effective troll.

I only track transactions, identities, and if they watch kinky porn.

This is harmful to innocent bystanders (as well as people who are having their privacy invaded for watching legal kinky porn—if any of these listings are correct, which I would not assume!).  It is defamatory to anyone whose IP is incorrectly listed, among other things.

Among other things, AES is broken!!  

Yes it is, Monero community members have a tendency to spew uneducated bullshit. https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007%2F978-3-319-19962-7_3

I hope those defamatory remarks made you feel better, because they didn't make the IP leak go away.

PSA:  Do not reply to monero_badcaca’s admittedly abusive spamming of lengthy nonsense lists here.  Just report them, as I already did before I saw this on his thread:

Full, unedited quote for reference:

Monero lost its reputation a very long time ago. Just imagine people having your IP addresses along with which sites you visited or where specifically you purchased something is quite frightening for those that thought they were dealing with a privacy based coin. I checked the link (https://monero-badcaca.net/) it does not look good for Monero as a privacy coin and it does not look good for those 100 user details that will be published daily 

I'm posting the daily report in Monero topic until they start moderating it.

I also observe that he is multi-posting.  (And if he keeps up this arrant nonsense, I will start reporting it as a troll instead of replying.)

You idiot, the biclique attack does not mean that AES is “broken”.  I guessed the related-key attack, because in some versions, that would have much lower time complexity (it just requires, um, related keys).

All that you need to do is to read the abstract of the paper that you cited.  You don’t even need to hop over to Sci-Hub and enter the DOI (https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-19962-7_3) to read the full paper.  Just at least read the abstract!

Biclique attack is currently the only key-recovery attack on the full AES with a single key....  We have a biclique attack on each of the following AES versions:

• AES-128 with time complexity 2^126.13 and data complexity 2⁵⁶,
• AES-128 with time complexity 2^126.01 and data complexity 2⁷²,
• AES-192 with time complexity 2^189.91 and data complexity 2⁴⁸, and
• AES-256 with time complexity 2^254.27 and data complexity 2⁴⁰.

Our results have the best time complexities among all the existing key-recovery attacks with data less than the entire code book.

Yup:

I dearly wish that Monero were exactly as “broken” as AES!

Break in cryptography is anything faster than a brute force search; it doesn't matter that it takes down security from 2^128 to 2^126 (and is therefore only theoretical), it doesn't even matter if it is a known-plaintext key recovery attack. There is no need to call people names just because you don't know what you are talking about (like most people in Monero btw)

[bbc.reporter]

@monero_badcaca. Maybe the IRS should pay you the bounty to expose and trace all Monero transactions hehehe.

In any case, the latest news update says that Shapeshift delisted Monero because of regulatory risks. The silver lining is this was not an attack on Monero. It concerns all the other anonymous coins that were listed also.


Crypto trading platform ShapeShift delisted privacy coins Monero, Dash, and Zcash to limit the company’s regulatory risk, according to ShapeShift.

[monero_badcaca]

IRS bounty for tracking Monero has already been claimed. But if you know any other one, let me know.

[elrippos friend]

Monero BADCACA sybil attack is still here, despite the claims that it has been fixed. If your tansaction is waiting for a few minutes in the mempool, badcaca node got it.

Here is 100 Monero users who trusted in its privacy yesterday, are you on that list?:

According to XMrig dev, Zen 3 may be slower than Zen 2 to mine XMR, because of the unified L3 cache.

Yes, see https://www.reddit.com/r/MoneroMining/comments/jpmw5l/zen3_vs_zen2_clock_for_clock_comparison/

Question for those that mine Monero in the US... where do you exchange your Monero for BTC or USD?

Some of us don't.

But I would use Bisq if I did.

Some errors, of course, but they spelled Monero correctly!  

Thanks to Wekkel @ WO thread for posting this.

[Millionero]

they spelled Monero correctly!

But the tradition here is to spell it incorrectly.  Romero, Moreno, Marilyn Monero, Mamie Van Doren-ero, throw a rock around here and you'll hit a mangled anagram, an anagramero if you will.

IRS bounty for tracking Monero has already been claimed. But if you know any other one, let me know.

Who took the bounty and what results did they have for the IRS? Chainalysis? They are only good for tracing bitcoin transactions and other blockchains that are not private, similar to zcash and Dash.

They do not have the capability to hack, exploit or break the cryptography behind Monero's privacy.

I believe the "bounty" was also fullfilled by other criteria that did not break Honey Pony's proofs.
It was a cheap FUD move.

Like our incompetent "hacker" who can not proof a thing

Very interesting times.  People are paying attention to the crypto space again.  privacy coins will get a lot of attention.
