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?

The patterns are so obvious, that it's not ambitious enough for anybody here anymore to try to filter it out.

Look on the bright side. At least you don't need to obsess over signs of life from FUK now.

MUCH RECRUIT, DEVELOPERS MANY

WOW!

WOWNERO UP 2000% IN 2 WEEKS!

NET WORTH NOW HIGH!

just ran a "p2p handshake crawler" across the network, 4320 reachable nodes

16117 total

that's not bad!

I'll see if I grab the height they're in and some other stuff that comes from the handshake

wwwwuuut

16k nodes?

4320 for sure - they all responded to the handshake w/ a proper local_peerlist_new

the other 12k, prooobably are fine, but, can't reach them

<CCosta[m] "the other 12k, _prooobably_ are "> Behind firewalls/nat

<nikg83[m] "Behind firewalls/nat "> yepp

I was reading the paper 'Exploring the Monero Peer-to-Peer Network' by Cao, Tong, et al. Is it still the case that there are only a few 'medium' and 'heavy' nodes account for 80%+ of connections in the network?

when was that paper written?

<botcoinnotbot[m] "I was reading the paper 'Explori"> that's something I want to explore next!

<CCosta[m] "4320 for sure - they all respond"> Have you analysed those peerlist if there are still asshole nodes tracking I.e giving peerlist of those tracking nodes only ?

<nikg83[m] "Have you analysed those peerlist"> uuh good point, I haven't, I'll update it to find that out

could also check what % have RPC ports open

<CCosta[m] "uuh good point, I haven't, I'll "> Do share your findings here, so they can be blocked

👍️ 👍️

<gingeropolous "could also check what % have RPC"> absolutely!

btw, code is all here: github.com/cirocosta/go-monero

nice

What kind of person steals from their own community? removeddit.com/r/Monero/comments/6d…ds_to_give_up_his_commit_access_and (changed link to removeddit since /r/monero mod removed to try to cover it up - maybe fluffy himself?)
