Hal Finney in the Extropy Magazine (1993):
“If you see a proposal for an electronic money system check to see whether it has the ability to preserve the privacy of transactions the way paper money does today.
If not, realize the proposal is designed to harm, not help, individual privacy"
@SimpleXChat@dannygladiolas Why do you need a smart contract on an EVM? You could use Liquid Network, Bitcoin-style smart contracts, and Confidential Transactions (like Monero).
The first testnet (alpha stressnet) for Full-Chain Membership Proofs (FCMP++) and CARROT will go live on Friday (October 3)!
We implore the Monero community to participate in testing and to report issues in order to ensure a smooth transition!
Qubic never actually hit 51% btw. Don't fall for it.
However they do have a large enough hashrate to perform multi-block re-orgs with their selfish mining strategy.
They disabled API hashrate reporting so that they could lie about it.
Keep mining and ignore the noise.
Uma tendência cada vez maior é a de ricos colocarem dinheiro em criptomoedas para se protegerem de estados nacionais.
É impressionante, todos os milionários e grupos políticos que já encontrei compram bitcoin por esse motivo.
"Information technology is also
creating supraterritorial assets, which will help to subvert the
embodiment of the in-group, the nation-state. Ironically, these
new cyberassets will probably be of higher value precisely
because they are established at a distance from home."
@ocodista Qual a configuração e quais projetos vai fazer?
Tenho vontade mas falta coragem de aportar a grana em qualquer coisa maior que um RaspberryPi 😐

Kraken delisting Monero in Europe just goes to prove what we already know: Chainalysis et. al. simply can't squeeze enough information out of Monero's privacy to be meaningful, otherwise regulators would want Monero to stay listed as a honeypot.

The most hilarious part of the CoinTelegraph article (that appears to be written by a 14 year old that just discovered journalism and is here to make a difference) is that the Monero community are the ones desperately trying to keep the leaked video up, because it is a RESOUNDING story for Monero's capabilities.
But of course "leaked Chainalysis video suggests Monero transactions may be traceable" or whatever.
Have fun:

Watch the video, and see for yourself how even Chainalysis acknowledge that they have had to resort to weird and obscure attacks just to extract some small amount of information...and the fleeting data they could gather is about to disappear now that the cat is out the bag, and users will be less prone to using remote nodes over ipv4.
RIP Chainalysis.
@vinibarbosabr@Cointelegraph@rkbaggs There are suspicions that CoinTelegraph has ties with the BCN team. It's not new that they predominantly spread negative news about Monero.
Ahhh, and I bet they won't publish an ERRATA. It's their policy.

@CameronRuggles Hey, I'm from Brazil, and many people here rely on Starlink to survive. So there's a good demand for it.
It could be a profitable business if it's even possible to do this.
