Revuo Issue 41 - revuo-monero.com/issue-41.html

i recently read electriccoin.co/blog/halo-recursive…composition-without-a-trusted-setup

researcing xmr posts/args: 1. trsuted setup: not anymore 2. founders reward: discussed to reduce/abandon 3. privacy by default: inevitable on the longterm; what args are left for xmr jugging around ringct versions (being more pragmatic) with different tradeoffs. fluffy donwstep, zksnark choins emerging

for me its the painting on the wall

what does fluffy stepping down as maintainer have to do with anything?

loool, the MEA thing was hilarious

:D tari next

i'll concede that snipa isn't as cuddly and lovable as fluffy, but i'm sure that snipa is just as capable

i dont know him, not going to convince you, diversification is key

Anyone one has a ledger nano S ledger ?

In the monero app what is change network ?

Mainnet / Stagenet / Testnet

What are those ?

What happens if I reset ?

The monero network and test versions thereof.

Ok, so no nothing dangerous there right ?

I mean, no way I can fuck it up is there ?

Oh, there are always ways.

Do you have a reason you might want a test network ?

Because "changing things just to see if they can be changed" is probably up there with the best of them in the list of "how did I fuck things up".

14:46 <bajaba> What happens if I reset ? <-- If you are talking about the Ledger app, nothing.

That was my question indeed

moneromooo: I don't think I do since It's part of the stuff I don't yet know about

I know pgp, a node, merkle tree, blockchain, wallets but I don't know what is the mainnet

moneromooo: I know that's my curse, I always want to go further down the rabbit hole and then I break thiings

"mainnet" just means "the main monero network". Because there's a couple test ones.

For example I had a working Monerujo wallet but you know ... I had to run a full node and know how to use a cli wallet

the stagenet is good if you want to break things. the coins are worthless and you can mine more because the network difficulty is so low :)

Does it mean like another blockchain ?

Yes.

asymptotically: ok thanks

And of course I created a wallet and transferred my funds to it before I know how to run a node.

So know i have a full blockchain, some wallet files, a ledger device, and I can't see my funds

Check the refresh-from-height setting. If needs to be <= the height you got your monero.

Type "set" to see it.

So first thing (than you) where do I put the wallet file ?

because if I put in Moner/wallet the cli can't find it

and if put it in the monero cli file it says :

Wherever you want. You obviously need to give the path to it if it's not in . though.

Error: Key file not found

How do I do that ?

Are you familiar with a shell ?

I am

You are familiar with what a directory is ?

I am

Then you string directory names with "/" between them and .. means parent directory.

ha of course

Like if you put your wallet files in a directory called Moner/wallet, then you add "Moner/wallet/".

ie, monero-wallet-cli --wallet-file Moner/wallet/thenameyouused

Thank you

Sometimes the solution is simple and yet you can't see it

I have done the learning but I need to practice

Does the cli runs monerod or do I have to run it alongside in another terminal ?

monero-wallet-cli does not run monerod. Run it separately.

What I assumed. Thanks.

It asks if I want to mine. Should I be nice and says yes or my old computer is gonna run slow I will want to cry ?

i think if you say yes to the prompt, it checks if you are using your computer or not, and only mines in the background

so hopefully it won't make you cry but you might not earn anything from it

haha great thanks

So I opened my wallet with the cli and I am running the daemon fully synchronized, how do I see my precious funs now ?

funds

It says starting refresh

And Height and then numbers

<xmrhaelan> Is there a minimum bandwidth requirement for sending a Monero transaction?

It asks me for a password

Why do I need to enter it again ?

is it the cow asking?

I don't get the joke

<xmrhaelan> Probably autocorrect for CLI

Why does it says O funds (I want to cry)

theres a cowsay message that comes up and asks for your password, like a screensaver/lockscreen, i thought you might have been looking at that

azy: thanks

Did you do the "set" thing I mentioned before ?

Oh here's the cow

<xmrhaelan> I should reframe my question above a bit. Is there any reason someone could not connect to the Monero network and send transactions on infrastructure with a 500kb/s maximum bandwidth?

So does that mean I have to go in the other computer (the one that has a HDD and no blockchain), run the gui, find the height thing and then come back to the cli and enter refresh-from-heigh ?

Right I entered my wallet with the cli but it says it out of sync

xmrhaelan: very unlikely to be a problem.

You can estimate by taking today's height and subtract 720 per day.

I transferred the funds yesterday

So 1500 should be good ?

Is it normal it asks for password when you refresh ?

What is today's height ?

moneromooo, what about 10kb/s?

refresh-from-heigh

sorry

Is the default BC location the same for the cli and the gui ?

That's like 1 kB/s, should be fine. Though the sync you'dneed to have done first will be excuciatingly slow, and maybe timeout-y. Use --block-sync-size 1 (IIRC) in that case.

bajaba: Try 1990000, that's a safe value for yesterday.

If it is less than that, it's also good. More than that, and it depends on exact values.

moneromooo: thank you so much

what does mean "output received" after enter password ?

And then suddenly... It worked !!!

moneromooo: Thank you again

Hello

hi ckrypto[m]

Is there a good place to sell stuff for monero? I have some old football jeserys and collectable cards.

ckrypto[m]: there's /r/moneromarkets on reddit

I believe there's a channel on reddit for this.

you might have better luck on bitcointalk

r/moneromarket

or something like dat.

asymptotically: oh cool, thanks

white house or monopoly market.

on dnm.

whoops yeah rottensox is right. it's /r/moneromarket and not /r/moneromarkets

a buddy of a buddy of a buddy whose cousin has a friend of a friend whose stepfather told me there's xmr-only dnm out there...

I heard about openbazzar. Is that... reputable?

white house, is that the name of a dark market ? :D Trolling nicely :D

yes.

openbazaar and bisq are both reputable markets.

Cool

Thanks for the info all. 👍

im dropping an xmr market app soon

ckrypto: xmrauctions.com

provisioning things right now and will post in the reddit later

lza_menace: like an eBay?

yup

Does adding "--tx-proxy" to monerod options force monerod to ONLY send through that tor/i2p proxy?

*to only send local Tx broadcasts

Hopefully.

That would explain things :)

Helps if you have tor listening :)

Wondered why Tx were getting stuck -- pebcak as usual :D

one of the most difficult error codes to eliminate

Whats the best way to purge/retry those Tx?

Seem's they're stuck in never never land

relay_tx TXID

woot

worked

Saved my ass as usual moneromooo

Keep up the amazing work <3

Hi everyone. I need your help. Why when I try to encrypt with gpg it asks fr recipient ID twice ?

In case you want to encrypt with two keys. Press enter, it stops on an empty line.

Thanks

Very much
