sethsimmons: done

Thanks

^ please comment more names, we don’t have too much time left

Ah, very last minute

Classic

I missed it on the checklist 🙁

it’s on the checklist now

Yeah good catch there selsta

Hadn’t even thought of that

Oxygen OMGweneedaname

Oumuamua is perfect for mooo

Should I share that list on Twitter for broader feedback?

That issue I mean

in honor of mooo I declare Oumuamua

oh mooo ah mooo ah

Orion is the only good option

there is a constellation called Octans which, numerically would be kinda neat for 0.18, there is also a star called "Ogma" in Hercules constellation, (HD 149026) and "Oxygen Ogma" sounds kinda hilariously cool to me

selsta: ^

oh nm I guess its in the candidate list already

<xmrhaelan> Sarang and Justin, a CoinTelegraph reporter is inquiring about CipherTrace and Tryptich. I shared with her some of our articles and the interview and have encouraged her to contact you guys for a quote.

Not interested

<xmrhaelan> I explained that Tryptich was created before CipherTrace claims, but I think a quote from Sarang would be ideal.

<xmrhaelan> Lol. Why?

Last time sarang spoke with a reporter they misrepresented his statement

so probably that’s why

the research is public so the timeline is obvious

to be honest I agree with not engaging in the click bait drama game

<xmrhaelan> Well that’s kind of in the job description for MO...

clickbait spreads

xmrhaelan: sure, but that doesn't mean I have to agree with it. I also think MO has a broader scope than just engaging with crypto-media

Though accept it's a part..

For better or worse

We don’t know CipherTrace’s tracing capabilities so we can’t say how much Triptych will affect it

The preprint was posted on 6 January 2020, with research done well before that: eprint.iacr.org/2020/018

Triptych research was part of longstanding research that assumes adversarial analysis

It had _zero_ to do with CipherTrace specifically

nobody had even heard of ciphertrace when you guys first talked about triptych

The timing of its acceptance to ESORICS CBT was pure coincidence

I had submitted it well in advance of their press release

Bam, end of story

I don't want to give a statement in any article trying to make more of this than exists, and I strongly suspect any statement will be misquoted or taken out of context yet again

So no, I'm not playing that game

re: CoinTelegraph -> twitter.com/eyejay15/status/1300436214009430017

Want me to make that weighted naming poll like last time?

Can you list the current valid contenders here?

Sounds good (sgp_)

Oxygen Orion and Oxygen Ocelot seem to be the popular choices currently

I see people like familiarity

I think being able to pronounce it and remember it are important

Oumuamua

Oh mooo ah mooo ah

Ocelot feels more whimsical

Tbh, Ocelot was my suggestion but it's not a common name for a constellation

most people call it the Big Dipper

only the Aztecs called it the ocelot

or Jaguar

how much do I have to pay for Oumuamua

I can't get behind oumuamua. Just doesn't have any assonance with Oxygen

true

how does oort sound to you hyc

a bit short, not rhythmic

Oxygen Orion, Oxygen Ocelot, Oxygen Oceana, Oxygen Orion, Oxygen Oberon

whoops, orion twice

sgp_: that seems a bit long

Oxygen Orion, Oxygen Ocelot, Oxygen Oceana, Oxygen Oberon

I surrender

Oceana

Oxygen Ophiuchus

I might go with Oxygen Orionis - name of specific start in Orion const

star

Oxygen Octans - south polar star

"Monero: Going South"

<xmrhaelan> I like Oxygen Orion

Oxygen Osiris

Brother husband of Isis should get the crypto media going

you're giving them too much credit for literacy

ha

<xmrhaelan> Side note... relays have been working great lately! Thank you to the thankless few who keep these going!
