00:04:10 <matais> Hi!
00:07:46 <moneromooo> hi
00:16:39 <matais> I am new to monero. Anyone know why is the hashrate up?
00:19:03 <moneromooo> I heard someone got a massive amount of data center machines to mine.
00:20:09 <moneromooo> It's unfortunate those data centers can muster such amounts of hash. That's as bad as ASIC makers really, at first approximation.
00:20:30 <moneromooo> But at least it's more visible I suppose.
00:20:58 <selsta> My hope is if that happens more often that cloud providers monitor for mining more closely
00:21:31 <matais> How can they get away with it for so many hours?
00:22:49 <moneromooo> Because the data center gets paid for it, most likely :)
00:23:05 <moneromooo> Probably not by the person mining.
00:23:21 <moneromooo> But this is my unfounded speculation.
00:35:55 <artefact> hashrate essentially doubling overnight is very scary indeed
00:38:13 <jwinterm> is it more visible?
00:38:37 <jwinterm> it's just a rumor that it is on azure, no?
00:39:40 <artefact> i feel a disturbance in the force... as if millions of CPUs all screamed in agony at the same time
00:39:54 <moneromooo> Someone loaded windows on them ?
00:43:21 <scoobybejesus> :)
01:22:34 <M5M400> jwinterm: correct. azure is just a rumor at this point
01:26:18 <selsta> AFAIK sech1 checked the nonce patters and they are using xmrig
02:12:56 <derpy_bridge> <[discord] Arctic#5824>: guy has 798.3 MH/s rn
03:05:59 <exquisitebead> Hi
05:09:19 <istherearandomxa> What's up with the sudden. Hashrate increase?
05:11:00 <istherearandomxa> Supercomputer or botnet? Can non patterns provide clues?
05:11:07 <istherearandomxa> Nonce
05:59:34 <Inge-> yes, patterns say xmrig
08:55:52 <exquisitebead> Hi who has btc?
08:57:18 <ErCiccione> What platforms are bridged to this room? Matrix, mattermost, discord ...
08:57:34 <exquisitebead> ErCiccione: hi do you have btc?
08:58:16 <ErCiccione> Please stop it. They already told you this is not the place for that, you are only going to get a ban if you keep doing this
08:58:26 <exquisitebead> Fucking ban me then
08:58:37 <exquisitebead> You fucking guys are going to get it one day
08:59:41 <ErCiccione> Just stop it and go somewhere else if you want to trade btc for whatever
10:49:30 <Inge-> TX count back up to 14K for the first time in about a month
11:47:10 <exquisitebead> Hihi
11:52:04 <alexanarcho[m]> anybody here familiar with unstoppabledomains.com? they have the option to tie an xmr address to a .crypto domain and certain wallets can easily send funds to the corresponding xmr address by sending it to the domain. I am wondering if the official gui supports this - which i dont think so, but i know that they support open alias. i m wondering how hard it would be to implement something like that into the official
11:52:04 <alexanarcho[m]> moenro wallet
11:55:49 <selsta> I don’t think we will add support for it
11:56:16 <selsta> openalias is a simple protocol
11:56:34 <selsta> unstoppable domains is a company with affiliate system, looks rather suspicious
11:57:25 <selsta> alexanarcho[m]: see here https://github.com/monero-project/monero-gui/issues/2853
11:57:33 <alexanarcho[m]> dont tell me that :D i just bought a domain there.
11:58:15 <selsta> though I have to say I did not look into it too much
11:59:39 <alexanarcho[m]> looks interesting, one time purchases, domains are erc 721 token iirc. hosting over ipfs is very easy,
12:57:21 <exquisitebead> $100 vanilla one card for btc
12:57:30 <exquisitebead> I can't find anywhere .
12:57:34 <exquisitebead> That has it
13:51:25 <sethsimmons> Dude just stop.
13:51:33 <sethsimmons> Go somewhere else to sell your giftcards
13:51:50 <sethsimmons> No one wants them here, obviously, so stop wasting your own time.
13:59:35 * needmoney90 waves his nonexistent banhammer around angrily
14:00:28 <needmoney90> luigi1111: pls
14:00:32 <needmoney90> Halp
14:01:50 <sethsimmons> thanks needmoney90 and luigi1111w
14:02:19 * needmoney90 did nothing but complain
14:02:38 <sethsimmons> It was productive complaining XD
16:16:53 <dsc_> https://github.com/tevador/monero-seed
16:16:56 <dsc_> whats the license on this? :P
16:17:18 <dsc_> Copyright (c) 2020 tevador <tevador⊙gc>
16:17:24 <dsc_> i.e: someone cant use it?
16:17:38 <asymptotically> default is that you can't do anything with it
16:18:05 <dsc_> great
16:18:26 <moneromooo> Unless you're a big company with lawyers on the payroll to stonewall the author.
16:19:10 <dsc_> So inclusion inside Monero GUI will have to wait till it gets a more permissive license?
16:35:39 <luigi1111w> I don't really agree with using pbkdf2 sha256. Something with randomx and/or sha3 makes more sense to me
16:37:59 <dsc_> I see
16:41:09 <artefact> readme claims it's about the same as cracking the private key directly, doesn't it?
18:00:49 <derpy_bridge> <[discord] Arctic#5824>: the insane miner is planning to mine for around 1mounth
18:00:50 <derpy_bridge> <[discord] Arctic#5824>:
18:00:51 <derpy_bridge> <[discord] Arctic#5824>: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/394077070160035841/741353787976843384/unknown.png
18:02:02 <derpy_bridge> <[discord] Arctic#5824>: this is the miner that is mine 540 MH/s
18:02:48 <asymptotically> Arctic#5824: he has over 1 Gh/s
18:03:07 <derpy_bridge> <[discord] Arctic#5824>: oh wow
18:07:50 <lza_menace> must have cash to burn....or credits
18:22:50 <endor00[m]> says he has 125k rigs, he made some big investment
18:23:05 <artefact> ...but why
18:23:20 <endor00[m]> to make money? why else?
18:30:54 <derpy_bridge> <[discord] Arctic#5824>: He said his profits are 30%, so $1.35M for $1M invested?
18:38:36 <sethsimmons> Wow, surprising that its actually a legit miner
18:39:37 <selsta> it’s not most likely
18:39:54 <selsta> IP is apparently from Vietnam, like the first Azure miner from a few months ago
18:40:44 <selsta> (not saying it’s the same person but seems so)
18:41:02 <sethsimmons> ah interesting
18:52:00 <artefact> there's no way you get 30% roi over any cloud provider
18:54:05 <asymptotically> artefact: that's why you pay with stolen cards, stolen accounts, or free credits
19:39:56 <lza_menace> ^
19:39:59 <lza_menace> usually credits
20:28:37 <fling> are opterons fine for mining?
20:30:26 <Spaceguide> we have a FX8350 doing 2600hs...
20:32:17 <asymptotically> fling: you can look up the specific chip on https://monerobenchmarks.info/ and decide if it's worth it (depending on your costs)
20:32:35 <asymptotically> but probably not
20:36:30 <fling> ok
20:48:21 <fling> Which distro to use for mining?
20:48:31 <fling> Something with a lot of miners packaged
20:48:38 <fling> Which miner to use?
20:48:53 <fling> Is there one for auto switching between pools/algos/coins for max profitability?
20:53:52 <asymptotically> use whatever you want, like debian or ubuntu. xmrig supports switching between different algos and some pools like moneroocean.stream can tell it to do that automagically
20:54:04 <asymptotically> they even sell the junk coins for you and give you shiny nice monero :)
20:54:38 <fling> thanks!
21:44:11 <xmrmatterbridge> <thecoder> U already dealed with that pool, moneroocean?
22:00:23 <derpy_bridge> <[discord] Arctic#5824>: moneroocean is great pool
22:57:43 <ruied> Hello. I have created and transfered a wallet with 1 x XMR. I have Printed: Private Address; Secret Viewkey and Secret Spend Key. Now I am simulating a disaster on another computer and want to restore the keys from my keys. How can I do that (write the keys)?
22:58:48 <ruied> I know I can recover from mnemonic... Want to try with the keys
22:59:24 <dsc_> ruied: perhaps this guide helps: https://web.getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/restore_from_keys.html
22:59:32 <ruied> If it works I know that I can transfer my other XMR's safely...
22:59:44 <ruied> dsc_, thanks, going to check
