In the second half of July 2021, there was an anomalous increase in transaction volume on the Monero network.

Why? Has there been any wallet update since he has been out?

Because MyMonero wallet was made by Ricardi Spagni and it has bad history, so I would better choose Monero GUI wallet instead.

Linux CLI is the best

Oh boy.  People smarter than me (hopefully?) have done some work to explain some of what I have been yammering on about in the speculation thread for, well, quite a bit...

Thanks for posting.  I hope it's not bunk.  let's see!

This was excellent analysis!  And very interesting... I will be pondering it's meaning for a while.

Although they call the event an "attack" at one point in the piece they never speculate as to motive.

One motive I can think of is creating a sybil attack for future decoys?  A database of ring members to be used in de anonymizing attempts later?  Which also justifies the ~1k cost incurred in fees?

To be honest this is hitting the boundaries of my "How does Monero work" knowledge...

Just assuming that WAS the motive, i wonder if there are any countermeasures that do not introduce more attack surface.

VERY INTERESTING STUFF!

A database of ring members to be used in de anonymizing attempts later?

How about if this is all connected Binance exchange with recent regulatory changes, and we know very well that Binance is manipulating Monero price for some time?
Single enitity could be Binance or chainanalasys, but I think Monero developers can always work on this.

Binance can not manipulate price of Monero because Binance is not the only exchange Monero is listed and traded on. There are more exchanges for Monero and they are not small exchanges.

The chart of Monero is good enough and price about $200 is good to buy it more.
With this chart, it is safer if you wait for price from $150 to $160 to be called. I don't believe Monero will fall to low price like that.

Hi

Trying to recover my XMR wallet with mnemonic seed phrase. When I created the wallet I took a screen shot of the words.

I do not know what the symbols are in two of the words:



What's the secret sauce please?

IIRC there was an issue with language fonts in the past,.

I would match them up with the word list.

Surprised you didn't notice when you originally generated the address, sort of poor procedure on your part not verifying when you created a wallet.

I see where I messed up. Got the words. Yep it was poor procedure but I got them. Thanks.

Hi, why dont can view balance and history transaction?

Not enough information in this support request aimed at a forum of users.

Biggest question -> What wallet?

Assuming you are using the "official" wallet, I would guess you just need to let it finish syncing.

v0.17.2.2 gui
v0.15.0.1 cli
linux
remote node
finish syncing

[gelius]

in monero-gui-linux-x64-v0.17.2.3 no remote node.
this wallet balance, but dont visible.

[gelius]

Dont can run feather now,, `GLIBC_2.25' not found.
Month ago this wallet monero-gui-v0.17.2.2 fine.

[gelius]

yes, in repository older glib.
next version monero-gui remote node can?
in tab transactions dont visible.
this old wallet, with balance and many transactions.

[gelius]

fine, why v0.17.2.3 no have remote node tab?
when reliz v0.17.2.3, old wallet broken.
