I’m trying to generate a Private spend key manually by coin flips. I’ve already seen the Site jolly mort, there is a option to generate a seed by coin flip, but I want to understand the process and do it manually. Because the site is asking for 252 flips, so i write this (0 - 1) and I get 63 number base 16. (From base 2 to base 16) but a private spend key is a 64 hexadecimal charters. So how can i get the 13:12:20 remaining number? To do it manually? How the site with 252 flips generate a seed? 13:13:55 If I make 256 flips (256 bit number) then I need to compute its reminder right? Modul l (which is 253 bit integrer) but that is too much for me 😅 14:07:42 You can use the generator at moneroaddress.org, put your flips in the custom entropy (any format you like). 14:07:59 Be very sure you don't write this entropy anywhere else though. 14:08:18 Or monero-wallet-cli also allows you to input your own entropy. 14:08:43 monero-wallet-cli uses it in addition to the system random bits, moneroaddress.org uses only what you give IIRC (so deterministic). 14:22:10 Thanks moneromoo. 14:23:46 With moneroaddress i put my entropy, let’s say 252 coin flips and of course get the seed. but I want to see how the site resolve this entropy to generate a private spend key (or seed)… with 252 flips 14:28:22 It runs keccak or Cryptonight IIRC. 14:53:29 Oh! I see, SHA3. Thanks 15:26:16 When will XMR move to a proper algo like SHA3? 15:29:45 Probably never. The difference between our keccak and SHA3 are so minimal it's not worth the pain to switch given we have to support our vrsion for historical data. 15:33:40 there is no difference between keccak and SHA3 for the data we operate on 15:34:05 the only difference in spec is wrt to padding, which is only relevant for inputs that are not multiples of 32 bytes 15:34:53 all of the data we operate on is always a multiple of 32 bytes 15:37:03 .beg 15:37:05 p​arazyd: Of 6 <-> 1, which ​is 6 15:37:08 1 15:37:08 parazyd: Oops that is not correct.

How likely is this? 21:40:17 I don't think that's necessarily a question for the dev team tbh 21:48:11 I don't think many many exchanges will delist it, because there aren't many exchanges listing it. 21:48:53 Then again, I'm not quite sure how numbers compare so... 21:50:17 Atomic Swaps are Coming 21:53:05 solominer: I think that "investing in Monero" in a real, meaningful sense, would involve skipping the buy-hold-sell plan people use with BTC. Monero's value is its utility, not its mere existence as a get-rich-average-speed collectible. To invest in its actual utility, mine it, run a full node or two, and sell things for Monero using private transaction vectors. 21:54:59 apotheon, I sell things for Monero 21:55:56 solominer: If you have zero interest in helping improve the ability of people everywhere (including yourself) to gain private access to free economic markets, and just want to put fiat currency into something and get more out of it later, sure, Monero will probably do that, but the hostility of the state apparatus to private currencies will ensure there are more obstacles in the way of doing this 21:56:02 kind of thing quickly, easily, and safely than things that are easily identified, tracked, and (if "necessary") attacked. 21:56:11 Mochi102: . . . like what? I don't recall whether I saw you mention what you sell. 21:56:24 apotheon, https://monero.style 21:57:21 I didn't realize that was you. 21:58:05 :) 21:58:18 I'd like that "Subtle Monero Supporter Hat" if it was black with the M in white or blue, but I'm not in the market for another hat right now, so don't make it just for me (yet). 21:58:26 that you all so far! bye, bye 21:58:52 I scared off solominer 21:59:00 I have a khaki one that I wear all the time apotheon 21:59:15 apotheon: you are very scary 21:59:28 Yeah, I don't wear khaki. 21:59:38 DirkGently: . . . thanks? 22:02:07 Mochi102: I'm still considering whether I want to get that poster. First, I'd need a good place to hang it. Second, I'd have to justify the expense of paying for the frame, because I'm too lazy to get a frame myself. 22:02:37 It took me a year after purchase to get around to framing a previous poster. 22:02:50 (OpenBSD "The Wall" style poster) 22:03:00 The block hashes poster? 22:03:03 yep 22:04:47 I'm already kinda beyond budget on my unnecessary purchases lately. I should just chill for a while. It's not like I have guests at home to see the poster, anyway. 22:05:33 I had the crazy idea of exporting the block hash for every block up until now and making it into a bunch of posters... even with crazy small typeface it was some oddly huge amount of posters though. 22:06:03 DirkGently: Is this scary? https://gateway.pinata.cloud/ipfs/QmYsvqgs7Zjpn2xkKDvuBFoNSqffwf7iB3XkAmhknX9g5i/gristle_fenrir_2020_05_04_r_endroad.jpg 22:06:19 Mochi102: yeah, that seems like a lot 22:06:44 eight-pixel font 22:07:22 yeah... was a crazy idea 22:07:37 but it might be exactly the kind of crazy we need 22:07:54 lol 22:07:58 It'd be an inherently "unique serial numbered" set. 22:08:27 "I want one with my first transaction on it." 22:08:30 "What's the blockheight?" 22:08:35 "I'm not telling YOU!!!!" 22:08:57 apotheon: is that belt drive? 22:09:20 yep 22:09:38 500 thumper, belt drive 22:09:45 good times 22:11:58 DirkGently: Do you ride? 22:12:41 only motor vehicle that I don't 22:12:52 ah 22:13:01 shame 22:13:21 Some people just don't like it, I guess. 22:14:58 you should ride it on the NY highways like the crazies do 22:15:37 I don't go to NY. 22:15:48 I ride it in the mountains. 22:16:14 looks like it 22:16:23 I go everywhere 22:16:27 (and through roundabouts, and on lakeside roads, and gravel/dirt roads, and so on) 22:16:42 I have another bike I'd use on the Interstate, except it's partially disassembled right now. 22:17:39 https://gateway.pinata.cloud/ipfs/QmZiGYoJ9b6MTWjA7dvSsUKhm2kNdL631fkGwFztFdAA1z/xj650_outtagas.jpg 22:18:05 Even in that image, the side covers are missing (thus making the battery jarringly visible). 22:18:25 There are many changes I still want to make to that. 22:19:50 The first, Gristle, needs a headlight swap and the addition of handguards. I'm thinking of adding ammo cans as panniers to Gristle, too. Other than that, I'm considering some paint and de-chroming. That's not much to change, compared to what has already been done. 22:20:02 apotheon, the Monroe Ave has nothing to do with why you're posting that pic here? 22:20:16 just lucky 22:20:20 :D 22:20:34 I'm considering a photo edit to rearrange those last three letters, though. 22:20:41 The problem is that I suck at image editing. 22:20:43 yeah 22:20:51 I can crop and resize okay, though. 22:24:19 here: https://imgur.com/undefined 22:24:22 .val xmr 22:24:22 apotheon: XMR -> USD • Avg: ≈344.25 • ccc/OKEX: ≈$342.21 24HΔ: -11.64284% Vol: 300.62K [0m] • cmc: ≈$346.28 24HΔ: -10.64835% 7DΔ: -23.1248% [< 15m] 22:24:23 oops 22:24:32 here: https://imgur.com/a/iS8kIq8 22:24:48 https://i.imgur.com/mvk8AOs.jpeg 22:25:05 apotheon, ^^^ 22:25:11 ahh, script-avoidance for that last link 22:25:13 using it now 22:25:52 .tip Mochi102 0.002 xmr 22:25:52 apotheon tipped 0.002 XMR (≈$0.69) to Mochi101 [62884160] 22:26:04 ;) 22:28:14 oh man... apotheon you want it to be monero ave and 69th street? 22:30:04 The missus is now laughing about that. 22:30:49 https://i.imgur.com/gTDFeak.jpg 22:30:53 there you go 22:30:57 new one 22:31:17 E 69th St and Monero Ave 22:31:31 You're killing me.
