00:08:59 <xmrmatterbridge> <dvd900> the remote node in the git issue was down ;____; i will be patient and wait for local to sync thanks yall
00:18:22 <selsta> dvd900 you sure it is down? https://community.xmr.to/node/mainnet/health/api/v1 says okay
00:19:41 <selsta> I assume you used simple mode previously in GUI?
00:22:20 <xmrmatterbridge> <dvd900> yeah thats right
00:22:33 <xmrmatterbridge> <dvd900> cause im a simp
00:23:33 <xmrmatterbridge> <dvd900> let me try to reconnect 2 the node and get the log about it being down again
00:24:03 <selsta> Simple mode currently has issues with sending because of all these nodes in https://gui.xmr.pm/files/block.txt not relaying transactions
00:24:08 <selsta> but we are working on a new release
00:24:33 <selsta> switching to a local or remote node should solve it
00:25:08 <selsta> node.xmr.to 18081 connects fine here
00:27:09 <xmrmatterbridge> <dvd900> im feeling like this is a *me* problem
00:27:18 <xmrmatterbridge> <dvd900> Warning: using an untrusted daemon at node.xmr.to:18089
00:27:18 <xmrmatterbridge> <dvd900> Using a third party daemon can be detrimental to your security and privacy
00:27:19 <xmrmatterbridge> <dvd900> You are strongly encouraged to connect to the Monero network using your own daemon
00:27:20 <xmrmatterbridge> <dvd900> If you or someone you trust are operating this daemon, you can use --trusted-daemon
00:27:22 <xmrmatterbridge> <dvd900> Using an untrusted daemon, skipping background mining check
00:27:23 <xmrmatterbridge> <dvd900> Error: wallet failed to connect to daemon: node.xmr.to:18089. Daemon either is not started or wrong port was passed. Please make sure daemon is running or change the daemon address using the 'set_daemon' command.
00:27:32 <selsta> 18081 node 18089
00:27:35 <selsta> not*
00:27:40 <selsta> you have the wrong port
00:27:47 <xmrmatterbridge> <dvd900> : O shame on me
00:51:20 <xmrmatterbridge> <dvd900> yay everything worked, thank y'all good luck on the next release.. the work yall doin blows my mind
03:50:32 <Franck[m]> Hello, where can I find some doc to introduce merge mining? Curious about understanding the process. I saw it was used for a couple of projects that merge mine with monero
03:52:03 <sethsimmons> https://tlu.tarilabs.com/merged-mining/merged-mining-scene/MergedMiningIntroduction.html
03:52:08 <sethsimmons> That’s a great intro
03:52:33 <Franck[m]> <sethsimmons "https://tlu.tarilabs.com/merged-"> Thanks, I was coming back to the chat to say I finally found this link :)
03:52:46 <sethsimmons> Nice 👍
05:46:49 <viperperidot[m]> what are these monero 'badges' I keep reading about?
07:30:32 <locustlord> anyone know why the gui wallet on windows 7 isn't connecting to the remote node?
07:30:41 <locustlord> it's been hours now of it just saying "connecting"
07:36:19 <Inge-> maybe try a specific node?
09:12:41 <dEBRUYNE> locustlord: Did you try using a different remote node?
10:28:46 <binaryFate> Is this new? I hadn't seen it http://hackingmonero.com
10:33:58 <algo_max[m]> nice. so much free work force trying to prove monero's security.
10:39:50 <Inge-> binaryFate: it looks kind of sketchy. Is there a timeline? How are solutions judged? Where does the prize money come from? What will happen to the results? What happens to your solution if it is NOT picked? Will you just run off with my solution without paying any prize money?
11:06:58 <asymptotically> thanks binaryFate :)
11:07:24 <asymptotically> Inge-: says that they've already raised $925k somehow
11:09:30 <charolastra> by 11 contributors. i wonder who they are ...
11:11:49 <kayront> sockpuppet1, sockpuppet2, sockpuppet3, ...
11:17:19 <endor00[m]> $1.5M prize money, yet they use a cheapo webhosting service and include no contact information of any kind
11:18:24 <endor00[m]> Totally legit
11:20:26 <kayront> take my money!!
11:51:40 <algo_max[m]> Not bad.. the site exists since only 18 days.
12:24:08 <Lovera[m]> 1)No https 2) "another WordPress site"
12:24:21 <Lovera[m]> Not bad
12:28:10 <azy> lol
12:30:33 <binaryFate> https://www.upwork.com/job/Tracing-cryptocurrencies_~0191b27a7ece4d4a9b profile created 30th of October
12:53:32 <sech1> looks 00% legit
12:53:45 <sech1> hmm, I wanted to type 100% first :D
13:14:42 <donkeydonkey[m]> 985k
13:22:29 <hyc> lol
13:22:51 <hyc> I guess that's not a bad portion of the over $1M bounty?
14:18:41 <jarkko> what could be the motivation for building scam monero hacking service?
14:19:43 <jarkko> hoping to receive some useful tricks?
14:23:40 <charolastra> obviously
14:26:29 <endor00[m]> Steal the solution and claim the irs bounty?
14:31:20 <jarkko> would be hard to present the solution to irs for someone who doesn't know how to setup https
14:45:44 <algo_max[m]> Its obviously run by the NSA. They can't list a contact address because it's secret. Also they don't need to use https because they know it's useless. But should be totally legit.. I submitted a brute force algorithm breaking monero. It takes a while to come up with a solution, but it provably correct. I'm waiting for my 1.5M to arrive now.
14:46:16 <jarkko> lol
14:51:26 <Mochi101> lol algo_max[m]
15:36:21 <Inge-> Did anyone see a requirement for the solution to be "usable in a reasonable timeframe with current hardware" ?
15:42:24 <Mochi101> Inge-, I never seen that mentioned.
15:43:41 <Mochi101> That link to the Upwork thing though... Makes me wonder how legitimate it really is. Read carefully:
15:43:43 <Mochi101> We are seeking innovative solutions for tracing of cryptocurrencies, mainly Monero (XRM), by expert tools, data, source code, algorithms, and software development services.
15:49:03 <Mochi101> I'm always protected when I spend my XRM...
15:50:17 <binaryFate> I guess this is easy to trace https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/aerum/
15:50:29 <binaryFate> easy mil!
16:51:30 <Mochi101> True hey binaryFate
16:51:32 <Mochi101> :D
19:10:21 <locustlord> hey I've tried many different remote nodes
19:10:32 <locustlord> it just stalls at connecting and doesn't show my balance
19:10:39 <locustlord> this is on oxygen orion on windows 7
19:18:55 <selsta> locustlord: which one did you try? node.xmr.to 18081 should work
19:19:18 <selsta> also did you activate socks5 proxy inside settings -> interface? if yes, deactivate it
19:19:46 <locustlord> I tried that
19:19:59 <locustlord> I tried every node at https://moneroworld.com/
19:20:56 <selsta> do you use a VPN?
19:21:19 <locustlord> no
19:21:24 <selsta> mobile internet?
19:22:12 <locustlord> no
19:22:19 <locustlord> it's a wired connection
19:22:35 <selsta> anti virus? firewall?
19:23:24 <locustlord> no
19:49:16 <Inge-> locustlord: how about monerujo?
19:49:47 <locustlord> I'm trying with the portable version
19:51:24 <locustlord> oh the monero gui
20:33:34 <Inge-> monerujo for android
