Are accounts a useful feature? I am just thinking about how I could represent accounts in a directory structure. See
pastebin.com/NEYCM6pz
-
nonie
In this case symbolic links are used for account labels.
-
nonie
e.G: cat account/invoice/balance
-
nonie
alternative to cat account/1/balance
-
nonie
On the other hand - ignoreing »accounts« would keep it simple.
-
nonie
!mnp If you have no idea what i am talking about - this link might help.

Does anyone here use accounts and for what reason?

*Hmmm, »Accounts« seem pretty cool afterall. Thanks for listening.

Hi everyone. How private is running a node and synchronising the BC ?
-
moneromooo
About 34.8
-
asymptotically
i'd just round that to 35 privates
-
cassepipe
asymptotically: Does not seem like much
-
cassepipe
Is is like torrenting ? Do I connect to a server that gives a list of peers to connect to ?
-
asymptotically
cassepipe: people like your ISP and the people running your network can tell that you are running a monero node
-
cassepipe
asymptotically: That's what I thought. How come my ISP knows ?
-
asymptotically
because they are carrying all of the monero blocks to you :D. you can hide it with tor, but then your isp will see that you are using tor instead
-
asymptotically
which you can possibly hide with a bridge and obfsproxy
-
cassepipe
Right, but how do they know those are monero blocks ?
-
cassepipe
Is there not something like a basic encryption ? TLS ? Https ?
-
moneromooo
Not between nodes. Only between wallet and node.
-
asymptotically
even if it was encrypted, they might be able to make a good guess based on who you are connecting to
-
moneromooo
Even if there was, there's no decoy traffic, so it'd be fairly easy to see a correleation between traffic and monero blocks being found.

lol
-
moneromooo
The node does not know your keys btw. If that's what you meant by "how private".
-
cassepipe
moneromooo: I was worried about that, just if my ISP was able to know I was running a node which ... it does
-
cassepipe
Thanks
-
gingeropolous
your isp knows your using IRC as well!
-
asymptotically
-
cassepipe
gingeropolous: I know...
-
cassepipe
asymptotically: Thank you
-
gingeropolous
it almost like we need an alternative to ISPs.... hrmmmmm
-
moneromooo
We need an alternative to so many things...
-
Mochi101
yeap

You can encrypt all your IRC message though.

It looks something like this.

yah know, computers (via linux) are like a musical instrument. there are so many different ways to play it

man. so.... not ironic. but something. So excited to get a real CD of a band i've been listening to on youtube... wanted the full on sound quality possible. and all of my CD players so far don't work.

Please for the love of all that is holy share with Bitcoin people that the Schnorr/Taproot BIPs do NOTHING for privacy.

fort3hlulz
This isn't even about pumping bags
-
fort3hlulz
The amount of misinformation around these changes as the fix for all Bitcoin privacy issues is insane
-
fort3hlulz
The ONLY thing that helps privacy is that CoinJoin gets slightly cheaper
-
fort3hlulz
But heuristically remains the same
-
gingeropolous
dude bitcoins private enough
-
gingeropolous
its got like psuedononuynnmeity

Like your ISP is private enough. And then you find your browser full of ads the website you're on didn't even put it.

Just look at your "off Facebook" data and tell me pseudonymity is sufficient :P

fort3hlulz: "off Facebook" data?

Hi guys, i have a question concerning a 51% attack. I know that the longest chain always wins. But what happens if a 51% attack succeeds and the double spend chain is the longest chain. Are all nodes now forced on the protocol level to accept the new chain and delete the old one or do they save the old original chain as well?
