Deyaa
What is the best way to store my keys??
-
Deyaa
Currently I'm using keepass
-
Deyaa
Anyone can suggest an alternative??
-
endor00[m]
That's a great way to store your keys (make sure you set the decryption time to take at least a few seconds)
-
Deyaa
endor00[m]: but it's not efficient I've to enter everything manually
-
Deyaa
Why kraken ask me for my country??
-
Deyaa
At the sign-up page
-
nioc
they do KYC (know your customer)
-
nioc
they will ask for more info than that
-
Deyaa
But I want to be anonymous
-
tryphe_
next they will ask for your blood sample and hair sample
-
Deyaa
tryphe_: but I already have my DNA results
-
nioc
Deyaa: do you want to buy with fiat or cash out with fiat?
-
nioc
cash out to fiat*
-
Deyaa
I want to cash out
-
strike
sell on localmonero
-
strike
use the tor hidden service
-
Deyaa
strike: does it support PayPal??
-
strike
its peer to peer
-
Deyaa
Is there any service support PayPal??
-
nioc
anonymous, uses paypal
-
strike
you make an ad and have people buy monero from you
-
strike
using paypal will break your anonymity
-
nioc
people can reverse payments with paypal, who would use that for crypto without ID?
-
Deyaa
nioc: how can I stay anonymous and cash out??
-
nioc
as strike said use localmonero
-
tryphe_
Deyaa, btw the reason they ask for id is because this exchange, among others, is held captive by the FATF, a terrorist organization that finances USD imperialism
-
nioc
I have no experience with using that service
-
Deyaa
Ok but how I'm gonna cash out ?? Using which service??
-
Deyaa
tryphe_: I think that not effecting the world anyway ..
-
strike
s/effecting/affecting/
-
strike
Deyaa: make an account on localmonero. set up an ad to sell your monero. sell your monero.
-
Spaceguide
Deyaa: you could also use Bisq
-
strike
^
-
Deyaa
strike: how I'm gonna get my money??
-
strike
figure that out
-
strike
cash by mail is popular
-
strike
have people send you cash to a po box
-
Deyaa
Wouldn't that break my anonymity??
-
Deyaa
Ok thanks guys for contributions
-
the5000[m]
The best way to get money is have Mexicans fetch it for you

Deyaa
Is it easy to sell XMR??

Deyaa
Or it takes some while

gingeropolous
hrm, that could be it. spurious though. ...
-
gingeropolous
ok so mining pool centralizations. main problem is one block producer. solution to that is the stratum++ or whatever its called. stratum select. miners make their own blocks
-
gingeropolous
problem is most miners don't give two shits about the blockchain. can't be bothered to run a local node to make their own blocks
-
gingeropolous
so perhaps we borrow some of this delegated crap from DPOS, and so we have the primary pool be the main aggregator of shares
-
gingeropolous
and the pool enlists block creators, that miners connect to for their blocks
-
gingeropolous
and the block creators get a larger % of the blockreward
-
gingeropolous
so now, instead of oh lets see the mining pool stats...
-
gingeropolous
5958 miners all working on one block created by supportxmr, that is split into groups of 100-200 or whatever
-
gingeropolous
i mean the groupings would be emergent, based on ping and reliability etc
-
gingeropolous
i.e., a miner decides which delegate to connect to based on n stats
-
gingeropolous
M5M400, Snipa this make sense?
-
gingeropolous
cause like i feel that pool operators *would* implement the new hotness (stratum select), but they know that miners won't do it
-
gingeropolous
so you need to give the miners incentive, and of course that incentive comes down to delegate rewards, or block constructor rewards, or whatever its called
-
gingeropolous
heh, would also cut down on pool infrastructure because utlimately those delegates function as network proxies
-
gingeropolous
and so the reward would still be split amongst the entire pool, so there'd be no reason for delegates to gain an undue % of the pool miners.
-
gingeropolous
ima stop now before this turns into a wall of text that people will just ignore .....
-
Snipa
You're still single block producer.
-
Snipa
The pool /is/ nothing but a network proxy.
-
Snipa
Sxmr as an entity is a single block producer in your scenario, where in reality, it's ~30-ish block producers, as there's ~30 different daemons running behind the scenes.
-
gingeropolous
no, but the delegates are creating the blocks.
-
gingeropolous
i mean, thats the whole difference between existing stratum and stratum++ or whatever
-
gingeropolous
yes, there's still 1 block producer, but the block crafters are now separate
-
gingeropolous
whittlin their blocks
-
gingeropolous
right? thats how stratum++ "fixes" the pool centralization
-
gingeropolous
its OK if a pool has 100% of the network, if its workers are the ones creating the blocks that they themselves hash on.
-
gingeropolous
its only a problem if the pool op is the one creating the blocks and then requesting workers to hash on that block
-
gingeropolous
in that scenario, your daemon is the only one creating blocks.
-
gingeropolous
in a stratum++ scenario, the miners are creating the blocks and submitting shares that solve the miners block, not the pool ops. sure, the pool op has to accept the block and distribute it
-
gingeropolous
jtgrassie,
-
gingeropolous
well yes, your daemon or 30 different daemons, doesn't matter. you still control them. u get it I know. this is pointless to hit enter but I will
-
Snipa
:P
-
Snipa
That's my point, we're just a proxy to the daemon.
-
Snipa
The only way to generate the block is to call the daemon to give you the block data required.
-
gingeropolous
right
-
gingeropolous
the delegates would run their own daemon
-
gingeropolous
this idea is built on the premise that some small percentage of miners would run their own node
-
gingeropolous
to function as crafters / delegates for some n% increase in their block reward
-
Snipa
I mean, it's just smaller pools.
-
Snipa
:P
-
gingeropolous
but that the majority of miners would rather not
-
gingeropolous
right
-
Snipa
So no change functionally.
-
gingeropolous
but people don't get variance
-
gingeropolous
well no
-
gingeropolous
so the whole pool still shares the reward
-
gingeropolous
like, if I submit shares to delegate X and delegate X finds the block, the block reward is still shared to the entire pool, not just delegate X's connected miners
-
gingeropolous
so in terms of block crafting, yes, its smaller pools
-
gingeropolous
but in terms of reward splitting its a larger pool
-
gingeropolous
i mean the goal is to get miners to has on their own blocks
-
gingeropolous
hash
-
gingeropolous
./s/has/hash
-
gingeropolous
damnit
-
gingeropolous
and if we can't achieve that perfection, then the next level down is at least some random ass miners block instead of the godlike pool op
-
gingeropolous
Lording down on their pitiful miners
-
gingeropolous
telling them which transactions are worthy of inclusion in the allmighty chain
-
gingeropolous
so the pool op becomes more an aggregator of work and distributor of rewards. it could prolly be rigged up such that the delegate could actually broadcast the block

Is it easy to sell XMR??

Infinity8
Hello XMR users. I'm having problems with SSH tunneling into my XMR node. I'm getting "Connection Refused" when attempting to SSH
-
Infinity8
-
Infinity8
-f -nNT -L$RPC_PORT:localhost:$RPC_PORT $REMOTEUSER@$REMOTEHOST
-
Infinity8
It worked previously but I'm not sure if it's because I'm running it off of a wireless ethernet bridge has to do with it
-
Infinity8
Firewall on server is definitely off
-

okay, well SSH uninstalled somehow
-

oh wells. I'll figure it out tomorrow or something

shabash8
are there any australian exchanges that sell monero?
-
Inge-
Probably not. They have been getting pressure from the banking side to delist privacy enhancing coins
-
shabash8
i used to buy off coinspot
-
shabash8
it was so easy
-
Inge-
I'm guessing you can still get BTC or other crypto - then you could send to some other non-kyc exchange and trade for xmr. You could use morphtoken etc too - but I fear that whomever you bought crypto from can later see that you sent it to morphtoken and they could at some future point deny you service
-
Inge-
Gotta love a completely transparent blockchain!

hv-bridge: how do I specify a password??
-
endor00[m]
<Deyaa "hv-bridge: how do I specify a pa"> Just put whatever value you want, either with -p [whatever] or by using the config.json file
-
endor00[m]
<gingeropolous "like, if I submit shares to dele"> But what's stopping the delegate from changing the reward destination address in the block template to reap the full reward for themselves? (Effectively becoming a minipool and taking the reward from its connected miners)
-
endor00[m]
When it's 1 miner vs 1 pool, the incentive not to change it is the fact that you'd be back to solo mining, which you wouldn't need a pool for in the first place so you have no good reason to do it
-
Deyaa
endor00[m]: does this gonna make the pool to see my workers as 10 not 1??
-
endor00[m]
But when someone in the middle is tampering with the block template, they could effectively steal your hashrate by making you mine for them instead for the pool
-
endor00[m]
<Deyaa "endor00: does this gonna make th"> The pool already knows you have 10 workers because it can see 10 connections. The only difference is what data it shows you on the dashboard
-
endor00[m]
And there's not much point in trying to hide how many workers you have
-
Deyaa
I'm not trying to hide my workers
-
Deyaa
The server sees my 10 workers as one
-
Deyaa
And combine the hash rate and it seems to be different than the real hash rate sent from the client xmrig
-
endor00[m]
The server sees 10 workers, but since they have the same "name" (the pass field) it shows all their data as a single miner
-
endor00[m]
It's better to use different names for each worker, so that you can see if one is having problems
-
Deyaa
How??
-
endor00[m]
<endor00[m] "Just put whatever value you want"> ^
-
endor00[m]
-u address -p worker1

endor00[m]
Like that

Deyaa
Okay I get it thanks buddy ππ

Deyaa
endor00[m]: I made a goal to send 1 MH/S is that sound good

endor00[m]
That's a lot of mining power
-
endor00[m]
(Please don't use the two largest pools if you do that, supportxmr and minexmr)
-
Deyaa
Yeah I'm using the company servers I asked my manager and he agreed
-
Deyaa
Why??
-
Deyaa
What pool should I use
-
endor00[m]
Because those pools are very big already, and that's not good for Monero
-
Deyaa
Okay
-
Deyaa
Thanks
-
sech1
Use smaller pools like xmrpool.eu or hashvault.pro
-
sech1
-
endor00[m]
Use a smaller one, like hashvault.pro , moneroocean.stream , or miningpoolhub.com
-
sech1
but don't use minergate - it's a scam

Deyaa
Okay I will make sure I'm using the a legit one

ooo... dEBRUYNE no I don't. Like I know your type in numbers and dots and stuff in the browser but idk what to enter
-
floam412
for my router specifically
-
binaryFate
depends on your network config, but you can try 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1
-
vdo[m]
hmmm looks like my home node has 0 peers too ( and port forwarding is working, just tested with nmap)
-
vdo[m]
any reason why that could happen?
-
moneromooo
If you have in_peers and out_peers to 0, if you started with --offline, if your db is borked and all peers banned you, if you have out_peers to 0 and using hide-my-port or a wrong port, if you forwarded the wrong port, if your ISP is censoring monero.
-
vdo[m]
i think the db borked is the most probable one, I will resync thanks
-
moneromooo
Good way to test it is to exit monerod, move the db away, restart, see if you get peers.
-
moneromooo
If not, it's probably not that, so exit and move db back.

lh1008[m]
Hello eveyrone. Does anyone know how to add the key to an RPC-pay call to a RPC-pay server? This is for the Monero Outreach RPC-pay node that the workgroup is running. I'm able to make calls from my local node but in this case RPC-pay node servers require a signature to authenticate and be payed with the hashes produced by the machine. Can anyone help out?
-
Mochi101
lh1008[m], rpc_payment_info in your wallet
-
Mochi101
It'll give you a client ID and a secret key
-
-
lh1008[m]
I added it to id field but it returned the id but no info.
-
lh1008[m]
I was told I had to add the signature in the client field, but can't find the client field.
-
Mochi101
lh1008[m], this is pretty new... lots of undocumented stuff.. best to dive into the code if you're able to
-
Mochi101
Or wait for someone more knowledgeable than me to help you :)
-
lh1008[m]
I went to the code, to the file itself, I was going to change it but moneromooo told me I didn't have to do anything in the code, or that was what I understood.
-
lh1008[m]
I'm still trying.
-
Mochi101
I mean read it, to see what it expects.
-

lh1008[m], I looked... I've no idea. Sorry

I remember someone did and I said there was code doing this in python in tests/functional_tests...
