03:40:57 <amitKIndia> on stop wallet, monero-wallet-rpc connection gets closed... how to stop wallet without closing connection ?
03:43:19 <anne232> hey the monero wallet gui is doing something weird for me
03:43:28 <anne232> i was supposed to receive a transaction like 20 mins ago and
03:43:43 <anne232> 2020-05-25 03:40:29.418	E daemonBlockChainHeight: daemon error
03:43:43 <anne232> 2020-05-25 03:40:29.418	E daemonBlockChainTargetHeight: daemon error
03:43:43 <anne232> 2020-05-25 03:40:29.419	E daemonBlockChainHeight: daemon error
03:43:43 <anne232> 2020-05-25 03:41:02.244	W Transaction extra has unsupported format:
03:43:54 <anne232> it says that on the terminal
03:44:08 <anne232> I assume this has something to do with my transaction not showing up?
06:45:48 <sunnuc[m]> if you type status are you on current block height
08:23:48 <Jackman2> can you see the number of tx a monero address did?
08:31:05 <endor00[m]> > "Transaction extra has unsupported format"
08:31:05 <endor00[m]> Is yanmaani already working on embedding his data in the chain? 😀
09:02:00 <sunnuc[m]> <Jackman2 "can you see the number of tx a m"> jsut by watching a Block-Explorer you can not tell, no
10:25:20 <ForeverNoob[m]> hello, is there a way to with Monero even though the address is for another cryptocurrency (like BTC) ?
10:25:39 <ForeverNoob[m]> because otherwise I have to first manually trade XMR to BTC and then pay with BTC for example
10:30:45 <Inge-> ForeverNoob[m]: xmr.to for paying btc addresses with Monero
10:31:06 <Inge-> (it is directly integrated into Monerujo and Cake wallet I think)
10:31:14 <ForeverNoob[m]> cool, I'll check it out, thanks!
10:31:15 <Inge-> ForeverNoob[m]: morphtoken for any <--> any
10:31:41 <Inge-> but I'd wager xmr.to is the best for quickly paying btc with xmr
10:34:01 <ForeverNoob[m]> You know what? I'll check out both!
13:27:24 <rogu86> Hello! Can anyone explain what are seed nodes (from list: https://community.xmr.to/xmr-seed-nodes)? How do they differ from ordinary p2p nodes?
13:29:32 <selsta> rogu86: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrapping_node
14:40:17 <rogu86> What is the difference between starting the daemon with the add-peer and add-priority-peer options?
15:05:28 <asymptotically> rogu86: it tries to maintain a connection with your priority peers
15:05:38 <asymptotically> if a peer you --add-peer goes away and comes back, you might not always reconnect to them
15:06:15 <rogu86> got it
15:21:13 <rogu86> What are the minimum requirements for VPS to run a monero node?
15:21:57 <rogu86> interested in memory consumption and how many cores are needed
15:31:58 <d4ndo[m]> It was reported that monerod runs on a Raspberry Pi 3b+.  it think it has 1 GiB ram.
15:34:44 <hyc> yeah, that runs, but more RAM is better
16:04:49 <goldmine_compact> What is essential is that you have a SSD. Everything else will just be painful
16:05:18 <goldmine_compact> My node runs on a RPi 4b with a SSD and works just fine (albeit approx. 40% slower than a node on a laptop with a SSD)
16:33:05 <hyc> I've been running my node on a geekbox. 2GB RAM, 64GB microSD card
16:49:41 <d4ndo[m]> Wow - that geekbox looks cute.. Never heard from it.
16:52:03 <d4ndo[m]> But it looks like the gap between the two antennas are to close for the 2.4 GHz range. Should be at least 6cm (lambda/2) 5GHz should be ok.
16:54:55 <d4ndo[m]> You could turn one antenna 90 deg. That should do it.
16:57:33 <hyc> yeah I have them at 90 degree separation
16:57:58 <d4ndo[m]> very good
16:59:59 <hyc> I also have it plugged into a pair of 10Ah USB battery packs, so it never dies in a power failure
17:00:16 <hyc> but I think in the future I would just use an old cellphone
17:03:40 <d4ndo[m]> a full node on an old cellphone?
17:04:58 <hyc> yeah, integrated battery, 4G and wifi. automatic network fallback
17:05:29 <d4ndo[m]> true.
17:07:48 <d4ndo[m]> all you need is an open source operating system running on it.
17:08:35 <hyc> an android phone comes with linux kernel and busybox already
17:08:51 <hyc> needs nothing else added to it
17:09:52 <d4ndo[m]> But in most cases you do not have root access, do you?
17:09:59 <hyc> don't need root access
17:10:20 <d4ndo[m]> ah. good to know.
20:17:16 <Jackman2> I like monero
20:17:31 <Jackman2> what is your opinion on Tezos?
20:28:29 <d4ndo[m]> It is implemented in OCaml.
20:37:09 <takel> hi
20:38:30 <yanmaani> https://news.bitcoin.com/russia-law-criminalizes-buying-bitcoin-7-years-jail/
20:40:18 <takel> wow
20:48:09 <yanmaani> how's that for your 'just buy it on the black market' ideas y'all
20:48:46 <takel> we must go to buy immediately
20:49:14 <azy> im not sure how you fight that
20:49:27 <azy> that'll easily shutdown adoption there
20:49:42 <d4ndo[m]> It is just a propose.
20:50:24 <takel> bitcoin will go to the sky if they vote it
20:50:24 <d4ndo[m]> The same person doeing that propose is buying a bunch of Bitcoin now.
20:50:33 <takel> yep
20:51:52 <yanmaani> > bitcoin will go to the sky if they vote it
20:51:54 <yanmaani> ahahaha
20:52:21 <takel> yes or no?
20:53:30 <yanmaani> no lol
20:53:32 <yanmaani> won't move
20:55:17 <azy> it wouldnt be a benefit
20:55:21 <azy> why's it being proposed?
20:56:13 <yanmaani> privacy is not desired
20:56:31 <d4ndo[m]> A smoke candle so smart money can buy more Bitcoin.
20:58:01 <takel> selsta any news about avoiding gcrypt for android
22:06:42 <endor00[m]> <yanmaani "https://news.bitcoin.com/russia-"> Reminds me of the "China ban bitcoin" meme
23:36:30 <yanmaani> That's not what this is about, it's about the unregulated OTC market being cracked down upon
