There are people storing hundreds of thousands or even millions of USD value in XMR. I am very glad the Ledger folks and the XMR devs are taking whatever time is needed to get this implementation right. If you are not contributing to the code your complaints are hollow.
Ledger support is probably coming in the 12.1 release which is probably sometime this month.

Fully independent means not connected to the Mymonero site that has been compromised many times in the past, so thats a pretty easy question to answer. People are concerned about MITM on Mymonero (as they should be). Can it be pointed at a local DB without re-coding?
When was MyMonero ever compromised?

When was MyMonero ever compromised? There has been cases of individual accounts getting hacked due to human error or malware infected pc, but I never heard of whole site being compromised.

I got an alert about a DNS affecting malware today. I suppose this type of thing can redirect you elsewhere without you knowing.

MyMonero uses HTTPS so your browser would give you a big scary warning if you got affected by something like that.

MyMonero uses HTTPS so your browser would give you a big scary warning if you got affected by something like that. Isn't there some way that malware can change the hosts file and/or use a self signed certificate to bypass that warning?

If its a miscrafted url then the certificate would be irrelevant?

Finally covered one of my favorite projects for the @Crypto__101 audience. Big thanks to @fluffypony for taking the time to break down the important role $XMR plays in the evolving cryptoeconomy.

When was MyMonero ever compromised? There has been cases of individual accounts getting hacked due to human error or malware infected pc, but I never heard of whole site being compromised. It has been theorized that cloudflare may have been involved but I don't think there was any real investigation done. There are a bunch of reddit posts you can find. Possible MITM attack, who knows there are member here who have lost a shitload and no they were not attributed to viruses nor human error. Birr is one member off the top of my head who got screwed if you want to do a search. Shit it could have been a sidechannel attack, who knows. Spectre or Meltdown is undetectable and could be run from a VM on the same machine so it could have been anyone that could even just rent a VM if they identified the machine. Or if they had access to the machine at all so anyone in that pool is suspect. It's the gift that just keeps on giving. https://www.us-cert.gov/ncas/alerts/TA18-141A

#9th is undervalued, haha. When more people realise that Monero's privacy tech is the best out here we will see more action.

XMR pair on a new exchange with atomic swaps. How bullish is it for XMR? I like Monero way more than ZEC. ZCash had some issues with private investors and its incentives in general...

I've been trying to catch the bottom in relation to btc for a long time, but with such big fluctuations it's not so easy to do. Now I see a small drop, perhaps just now a very good opportunity to buy coins even more.

If you mis-type the URL, or follow a phishing link, it's your own fault ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) I suppose in this regard, a desktop application is better.

This opens incredible perspectives. Tari is 1) Monero atomic swaps between Litecoin => anonymity defense: Japan's Coincheck sucks delisting Monero. We will just 'atomic swap' it to Litecoin. 2) Anonymous tokens => rules forever! Many people think anonymity is just about terrorists, drugs and money-laundering. NO! Anonymity is a Fundamental Financial Base, because otherwise, financial system is One Huge Vulnerability. If any street gangster KNOWS (via blockchain) WHO owns HUGE money, he will just come to the vulnerable person with anal crypto-analysis, and the person just says the wallet secret key to a gangster under wild anal pine. Cops?! They sucks. they have been already bought by a gangster for profit percent. So, to avoid that One Huge Vulnerability, the financial system MUST be Totally Anonymous. Other "anonymous" coins suck. Even ZCash fully depends on the initial secret parameters generation trust. Also ZCash is very vulnerable to transactions between "normal" and "private" addresses. Only Monero based on deep science research made on ring signatures since 2000, i.e. 18 years of test in both mathematical papers and "war" practice, is THE ONLY TRUE cryptocurrency.
