09:43:27 <Inge-> sarang: I donated to the CCS, and will continue as long as I am capable to do so. I completely agree with the point that the long term survival of Monero is predicated on the community support and continuing research!
09:45:56 <sarang> This support is very overwhelming :)
09:47:55 <Inge-> My countrys fiat just dropped 10% in one day. Bloody shitcoin. We need you and we know it ;)
10:18:20 <midipoet> 10% relative to what though? looking at it compared to bit/monero coins it's probably still going up in value!
10:51:33 <Inge-> 10% relative to USD/EUR
10:51:57 <Inge-> it has never in recorded history been this week compared to USD/EUR
10:54:06 <sech1> Same with SEK
10:57:51 <Inge-> You shouldn't fall as much. We should be harder hit due to Muh Oil!
13:55:17 <gingeropolous> im a fan of this shift for MRL funding. Indeed, couldn't MRL spinoff as its own non profit, receiving seed funds from Monero Core Team? That way its not really centralized. Its just a private, not-for profit entity that gets funding from whomever. whoever.
13:56:02 <gingeropolous> i know its somewhat non trivial to start a non profit... but my friends and I started a non profit with much less solid ground (almost as a joke) many years ago
14:47:57 <sarang> Do you mean a kind of registered nonprofit like the Zcash Foundation is?
14:49:36 <sarang> There are many rules, regulations, and requirements for doing so
14:49:50 <sarang> and administration of such an entity would be an ongoing and time-consuming task, to be sure
14:52:30 <derpy_bridge> [keybase] <seddd>: delegation is Sam's best friend
14:54:35 <derpy_bridge> [keybase] <seddd>: when the org is owned by every member, and all governance is automated, what is left but musty paperwork?
15:10:06 <derpy_bridge> [keybase] <seddd>: sarang is your experience with MAGIC fairly painstaking from an upkeep perspective?
15:11:31 <sarang> I'm not on the MAGIC board, but from my early participation it was clear that it is a lot of work
15:11:49 <sarang> So the benefits would have to be weighed against that
15:13:27 <sgp_> I'm the president of MAGIC and can answer some questions seddd, but maybe it's better for #-lounge
15:13:52 <sarang> True
15:13:56 <derpy_bridge> [keybase] <seddd>: True, best to let bureaucracies be run by bureauracrats
15:14:22 <derpy_bridge> [keybase] <seddd>: I am sequestered to #-labsgp_
15:15:12 <derpy_bridge> [keybase] <seddd>: Quarantined, if you will...
15:15:37 <derpy_bridge> [keybase] <seddd>: _shows themself out_
15:15:45 <sarang> Perhaps ask whomever runs the bridge to use it in -lounge too
15:15:47 <sgp_> seddd is this related to #monero-community?
15:16:08 <sgp_> I see derpy_bridge there
15:17:02 <derpy_bridge> [keybase] <seddd>: Think the discussion was around new funding approaches for MRL
15:17:28 <sgp_> sorry I meant "relayed." We can talk in community since I think it's relevant there too
15:17:29 <derpy_bridge> [keybase] <seddd>: MAGIC was brought up when discussing forming a nonprofit
15:18:28 <derpy_bridge> [keybase] <seddd>: Either, I humbly request the operator of the bridge relay more monunu goodness
15:22:25 <sgp_> seddd: can you try messaging in #monero-community?
15:23:42 <derpy_bridge> [keybase] <seddd>: yeh, one sec
15:24:41 <derpy_bridge> [keybase] <seddd>: not related as a keybase channel
15:24:52 <derpy_bridge> [keybase] <seddd>: *relayed
15:26:16 <derpy_bridge> [keybase] <seddd>: meh, not a big deal. will setup an irc account if I become more involved with Monero
15:27:53 <derpy_bridge> [keybase] <seddd>: _ends non-research spam_
16:00:52 <sgp_> seddd: ping me when you do
16:05:22 <derpy_bridge> [keybase] <seddd>: sgp_: +1
16:07:52 <sarang> FYI will be offline today to do IEEE peer review
