Last time I got an award like that was in a primary school football team. It had three stars too and said that I'm special :')

I just binned it though instead of showing it off to naive groupies. What kind of preson takes a group achievement award and presents it as a proof of their individual prowess anyway?

mj-xmr: Hi man! I'm running xmrig on 6 Ryzen with nice 15 right now :-)

In the background I have ./monerod running. That should be sufficient to receive payments, right? rpc port is open.

crst, YO! I have no experience with solo mining. I only mine on cryptonote.social

Because solo mining is what you're expecting to do, no?

I will give you my configuration

BTW. XMRig or XMRStak?

I have both

Also did you compile with SSL support?

mj-xmr: Cool. Atm I'm using xmrig but I'm open to suggestions as I'm pretty new to this. How often do you receive payouts? I downloaded the binary and didn't compile.

The compiled binary should have the SSL enabled. My configs assume this to be there.

I receive payouts about twice a month. But these are really micro payments. Good for covering the costs but not much more.

Objectively, I mine since 1.5 years, and the accumulated money so far have just exceed the costs for that period. But we know, that XMR will raise.

Gimme a sec for the config. I have a call.

Sure, thanks a lot!

* costs that would otherwise not be covered that is...

Cool, I'm running on 132 vCPU's now. Now idea what that'll give me, lol

Well my 4 core CPU made me 200 bucks in 1.5 years.

crst V

nice -n 15 ./xmrig --tls --threads=3 --donate-level 1 -o cryptonote.social:5556 -u WALLET_ADDS.USERNAME_COMMON_FOR_ALL_HOSTS

That's 82ct per day. 10ct per day per thread. Should give me $13.2 per day. But I really don't know how to properly calc here and take factors into consideration.

most of the profits are made by simply hodling.

mj-xmr: Is hodling included in your 200 profit already?

Yes

-pools?

So, i contacted Nym people, since they asked to be put in contact with Monero people, I offered my help and they replied "that's great!"

And i haven't heard from them since..

lol

From what I can tell they want to mention Monero to keep people engaged but don't really care about working with us.

I have basically gotten the stonewall from them so far.

we should ask Willy Woo to add some on-chain metrics for xmr to Glassnode

Sorry for brief Matrix downtime. We'll start scheduling in the future.

If people could help me out by answering [this quick survey](forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage…khaSUlXMTlNNEEwWk43Rlo5WTVGTzU0RS4u), that would be great 🙂

Does Markdown work in Matrix?

Yes, it does.

It doesn't do anything in the IRC protocol, though *maybe* it does in some client I've never used. As such, in most IRC clients, Markdown just makes the link harder to use.

(There's a Matrix bridge connecting your Matrix channel to an IRC channel, by the way, in case you aren't aware of that.)

just figured you might want to know

Ahhh, yeah - I realised when you asked about markdown... and didn't realise before that :)

Thanks for letting me know!

no problemo

Making sure there are spaces around your URI will make copypasta easier for command line clients.

I suspect there are some Matrix text intface clients that might have trouble with Markdown, too, now that I think about it -- though I haven't actually used them.

(I keep looking at Matrix from time to time, mostly to convince people to use that instead of Discord or Slack, but never end up using it -- mostly because the small groups using Discord or Slack typically evaporate before a switch to Matrix might happen.)

When Tari finally comes out, will you dump your Monero to buy it? Will others?

I dont even know what Tari is... so probably wont dump Monero.

And if people can't easily click the survey link I posted earlier, they can try this link: forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage…khaSUlXMTlNNEEwWk43Rlo5WTVGTzU0RS4u

It's vaguely related to Monero - but of course, that might be saying too much

Matt ✨: Just an FYI that basically any handle with a random string of characters is basically just the non-resident troll that spams this channel and is best to just ignore.

These spammer statements are crazy.

Isn't Tari supposed to run on the Monero blockchain?

Maybe not.

Maybe it's forked from Monero. I don't recall the relationship, really.

i think its supposed to be merged mined with monero or something. idk not all that relevant here ig

Will be merge mined

Oh, "merge-mined sidechain". That's it.

How the hell do you dump Monero for something that's merge-mined with Monero?

I mean, an individual might sell Monero and buy Tari, but overall I'd think that mass-dumping of Monero would just kill Tari value.

It's best not to expect trolls to try to make sense. Especially if they're stupid enough in the first place to think proprietary code is compatible with the Monero project license and have thrown a hissy fit for the 3-4 years since ☻

I see.

I didn't know that background.

wasn't this troll the same person that refused to come on IRC to collaborate?

lol

That's amusing.
