Hopefully helps others learn how to interact with their node 🙂 Thanks for the catch, mnt_grrrl

do i need the latest gpu driver to mine monero efficiently? or is it okay to mine it with a foss driver?

which is bad

your welcome. Also it might make sense to say restrict rpc mode no rpc mode under the config files I had to do a diff to understnad what you where saying

zed19[m]: mining with a gpu is very inefficient

do so only if you have free elec

as for drivers, no idea

<nioc "zed19: mining with a gpu is very"> all right then i think i5 quad core is enough?

mining on a CPU is limited by the amount of L3 cache, needs 2MB per thread and AKAIK the i5 has 6MB

to some extent the speed depends on the generation of the i5 and the ram

ok ill just try

if using windows which I don't think you are. some of that cache is not available so that 3rd thread is only partial

maybe 2k H/s

zed19[m]: if you use the xmrig wizard it will set the appropriate number of threads automatically as well as other parameters

wownero only needs 1 MB per thread so it's often better for cache limited CPUs, and if you mine on MoneroOcean you can have it exchanged to XMR automatically

no windows indeed

<mnt_grrrl "your welcome. Also it might make"> Mind sharing exactly what is confusing? I’m not sure what is meant by this.

sethsimmons, it should be something like restricted rpc and non rpc

I was not sure which was more restrictive

so is port 18081 used for anything?

It’s bound by default as unrestricted RPC on local host only.

<mnt_grrrl "sethsimmons, it should be someth"> The only thing explicitly exposed in configs is the restricted RPC

right so maybe it should be rpc bound to local host and rpc restricted for clariry

RPC is the interface itself

There are two modes to expose, restricted and normal

Are you saying it would be clearer if we also explicitly configure the unrestricted RPC in the config files?

whats the best way to keep track of the progress on atomic swaps? github?

Beags[m]: there is also #monero-swap which is usually active for the weekly Wed meeting I believe

sethsimmons, if you had a config file that was called unresticted rpc that would help

It’s always exposing restricted RPC

Or else you couldn’t use the node for your own wallet remotely

All config files expose it, the public ones just advertise it as well 🙂

You don’t ever want to expose the unrestricted RPC to the internet.

sethsimmons: honest question , you say you never want to export unrestricted rpc 18081

in my logs monerod suggest: --public-node is enabled, but RPC server 127.0.0.1:18081 may be unreachable from outside, please check RPC server bind address

so if one inteds to run a public node, the situation is different?

If you want to be able to connect a wallet externally you need to expose restricted RPC, as all config files do in my guide

If you want to advertise that exposed restricted RPC port to other for their use, you use the public-node arg that I set in two of the config files

I chose port 18089 for restricted RPC, the default for RPC is 18081

<edi_ "in my logs monerod suggest: --pu"> Is this after using my guide?

lmao, that's a better question for the litecoin chat. We only talk about illegal markets here

Is there an open source monero light wallet for android?

i feel like there definitely is, but unless you're toting graphene, id advise against mobile

Look at his mail order bride she even had a kid with him and he left her

tonyvoid[m]: ssh from android into your box and use the cli wallet :P

probably not safe to run wallet on a server with ssh but its safer than using an android wallet imo

tonyvoid[m]: Monerujo or Cake

is cakewallet a reference to let them eat cake?

no other prior wallets for btc were called bread and some other baked good that I do not recall at the moment

no,

somewhere a grammar dies

I hear that they are both good

I don't use my phone for financial stuff so.......

How many subaddresses to 1 wallet can you create

I've never tried using that feature

more than you will ever need

they are created in bunches deterministically as you need them

Okay so you can do over 100k?

maybe 200 at a time

as a default

Monero truly is the best crypto the illuminati bankers for sure are scared of its existence

I believe over 100k

probably millions

The developers migjt need to hide in Russia I'm the future

but I forget the details as it was never something I would ever need

Does sarang or fluffypony ever come in here

>the illuminati bankers for sure are scared of its existence

i know you're probably being sarcastic, but for some reason i've heard many people rant about conspiracy theories today so i have to ask

sarang is usually not in this channel and pony is everywhere

Modern banking was established by the knights Templar and carried out by William the orange through the house of england and carried into the united states through the federal reserve which is owned by the Rothschild's Rockefeller's Morgan's and warburgs and they all have rh- blood because they are affiliated with the priory de sion which is an organization that the knights templar guard

definition of a conspiracy........anything I do not directly control

Monero will put an end to it if the world adopts it

but wouldn't "they" adopt monero

they are currently adopting btc

You are right they'd find a way to take it over

Yes they are going to do a massive takeover with btc as the NSA is much more advanced with tracking it now with chain analysis and whatever else they use

There will be a lot of btc seizures for tax evasion and money laundering and conspiracy

> The history of banking began with the first prototype banks which were the merchants of the world, who gave grain loans to farmers and traders who carried goods between cities. This was around 2000 BC in Assyria, India and Sumeria. Later, in ancient Greece and during the Roman Empire, lenders based in temples gave loans, while accepting deposits and performing the change of money. Archaeology from this period in ancient

China and India also shows evidence of money lending.

<thematrix5000[m] "Modern banking was established b"> i have rh+ so im the chosen to fight them to death

The same kinds and queens of Egypt sumeria Babylon Greece and Rome are the same kings and queens today. George bush and queen Elizabeth are closely related and both are direct descendants of Charlemagne

i was asking this earlier and didn't get an answer. i'll ask again. when atomic swaps are implemented will they just be atomic swaps for btc at first? will the p2p system broadcast prices somehow so people can get an idea of market prices?

he used to be a shriner, but he has since stopped paying the shriner fees

so i think so

will atomic swaps eventually be for other coins besides BTC (like tether for instance)?

its my understanding that atomic swaps can be implemented in other currencies ya

<thematrix5000[m] "Order out of chaos the Hegelian "> all hail moloch de owl

<vekin "after bittrex announced the deli"> whats wrong with bisq?

attacks have finally stopped. :)

at least on my node

i'm mostly interested in how people will know the market price if they are using atomic swaps

bittrex = shittrex ever since those cucks forced kyc

would be nice if some kind of average trade price got broadcast over the p2p network and appeared in the wallet

"by the year 2025"

we should make an encrypted chat

they plan this bullshit which has started last year till 2025

vekin: maybe poloniex services Wash, don't know

h2017: swaps will be worked out specifically for btc first

there are encrypted chats but if it is a public room what does it matter

zed19[m]: the prices kinda suck on bisq so I'm not willing to pay a 15% markup to use it as a payment to the merchants i buy from

rather just pay the extra credit card fees

there are crypto to crypto exchanges

if you want to use a CC then.................

ya poloniex hasn't serviced WA since 2017

lol i really don't care if "they" know I'm buying Anvifen :P

localmonero probably a better option than bisq at the moment which kinda sucks

hmm it looks like they may have re-opened trading in WA on poloniex thanks nioc

imma in NY

oof yeah so you feel it worse than i do

so like a frog in a straight jacket and the water is getting warmer lol

ultra liberal states suck

well NY is different cause of the financial sector

they already had the infrastructure to regulate

true, but I don't understand how WA can just force licenses on companies that don't technically operate within their borders

just feels like gross over-reach

much of the regulation in NY, financial and other things, actually helps people from corp overreach

<fluoridatedsheep "we should make an encrypted chat"> i agree - you can invite me if you wish

>Unfortunately, we are unable to provide services to users in your location.

oof nvm on poloniex lame

with crypto there is much they didn't seem to understand

the only thing i know about the NY regulation was that they had to have a physical presence in the state to trade due to some kind of disability law?

<vekin "zed19: the prices kinda suck on "> need to get some btc to check out the trades

and ofc the need to help those already with the power in the financial sector

but that sucks indeed

oh, i don't mind the deposit, but you have to trade large amounts to make the fees palitable

palatable*

and the makers already have a markup on top of that

very little volume

so to even try it out is kind of expensive if you buy a small amount which makes the barrier to entry pretty high for casual use of xmr

think xmr will rise a lot more despite shitty cexchange politics?

I'll keep holding regardless, I messaged poloniex to get clarification on whether or not they were servicing WA, their twitter said they re-opened trading for residents but the account creation says I'm in a restricted area

it doesn't effect my ability to spend XMR just makes it harder to buy it

affect

thematrix5000[m]: yes we're both on IRC

Wow its him

I was listening to you on a few podcasts like what bitcoin did and monero talk and another monero one

As far as I understand Monero enforces 10 confirmations before a tx becomes spendable. Is this also enforced on `regtest` ? Is it enforced on `stagenet`?

After running some tests I don't think that 10 confirmations for being able to spend from a tx are required for neither `regtest` nor `stagenet`. Please correct me if I am mistaken or point me to documentation if available. I could not find anything around this specific topic :)

Daniel[m]5: stagenet is a 1:1 match to mainnet, so it should be enforced

and I can't think of any reason for it not to be enforced on testnet

That is what I thought, but I just sent a tx that spent from another that only had `5` confirmations on stagenet and it was not rejected. I would have guessed that this ex should have been rejected. Could not figure out why it was not so far.

* Thanks fluffypony - That is what I thought, but I just sent a tx that spent from another that only had `5` confirmations on stagenet and it was not rejected. I would have guessed that this ex should have been rejected. Could not figure out why it was not so far.

yeah that's odd

hm... I will try to reproduce it a few more times. The software I am using is relatively complex (swapping btc to xmr ...) so it is a bit hard to reproduce this in isolation. I reckon only more testing can show why this worked.

Could you potentially point me to a point in the monero codebase where the enforcement of this rule happens? Only if you know it from the top of you head :)

don't know it off the top of my head - also might be useful to ask in #monero-dev

oh yeah, makes sense, thanks!

IIRC it was added to the consensus protocol in the past 12 months

slightly off, sept 2019. monero-project/monero #5882

radicle is picking up speed. A p2p github.

from radicle:

Any security or resource implications of running monerod on a small home server 24/7?

you could be targeted by hackers that want access to your wallet

purely hypothetical though

If you left rpc open/unrestricted, someone could start mining on your system. That issue can easily by mitigate by a firewall, restricting rpc, or binding the rcp port to the host.

If someone wanted to ddos a clearnet node, they could launch a ddos against your ip, which could temporarily knock you offline..

Theoretical transaction/ip correlation could be matched up if you host a node on your home ip, but that is heavily mitigated by dandelion++.

my node crashed 4h ago. before that it had ran for 4.5+ days

monerouser1144: adding to list

YAY I have 102(in) connections

if everyone was running a non-bootstrapping fully synced node, and everyone had 12 outgoing connections, then everyone would have 12 matching incoming connections, right?

everything would be balanced

so that implies that that there are something like 9 to 10 times more leeching nodes than seeding ones right?

well there are probably people running nodes just to use a wallet

i do that but i let it seed

a lot of people seem to change the default number of outgoing peers

680 peers on one node, 757 peers on another

before the holiday/christmas attacks, I use to routinely reach over 1k peers.

is a rasp pi worthless as a monero node?

people use them to run btc nodes...

not worthless but the lack of hardware AES makes them a pain
