There is currently a fee bug on Monero, that the wallet doesn’t automatically bump the fee when there is a backlog. This fee bug is causing sync issues with many wallets. The bug has already been solved with Anonero.io, and other wallets will be rolling out fixes shortly.

There are rumors that Nostr's creator is behind a spam attack. Simplified Privacy addresses this and has a ready working solution: https://simplifiedprivacy.com/monero-attack-nostr/

Nostr creator is paying to prove monero can scale and resist against a spam attack. Congrats maxis, you give us strong reputation while living free in heads. Keep buying Monero to feed my miners and my bags 😃

What makes that screenshot of an e-mail credible? Is there some other more reliable piece of evidence?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago

Found it! The screenshot comes from the guy himself: https://twitter.com/fiatjaf/status/1576643430306164736

Few points regarding this,

It's already built, check it out linked-out.me & vid.simplifiedprivacy.com are federated w/ Nostr & Ethereum signing

Regarding Mitra, 2. When asked about Mitra, DegenRocket said it uses an outdated or less secure Ethereum signing method. And he hasn't yet severed the link between the IP addresses of federation and the identity with Ethereum post-bans. Our team has spoken with Mitra's lead dev, he's a great guy. However, he expressed a lack of interest in Nostr. 3. Signing with Monero (instead of Ethereum or Nostr) is dangerous IF it becomes popular, as it becomes known who wallets are in RingCTs.

Regarding Lemmy, 4. The bulk of Lemmy is socialist. In fact, I can't even post anywhere except Monero.town because they are so brainwashed. Lemmy.one, lemmy.ml, beehaw, all banned Simplified Privacy from posting even basic tutorials on their relevant Linux groups. So why are we going to put in work to downgrade the censorship aspect, just to interact with people who won't even hear one word outside their propaganda bubble?

Interested in Nostr, but it appears Gossip client for Linux is not ready for prime time. I will not allow clipboard paste of Npub with Ctrl-V. Looks like I may have to wait for another version when these bugs are worked out.

Eh, you're trying to copy another user's npub? Click the profile and it gives you that ability in the GUI.

Also check out Linked-Out.me its a nostr marketplace/forum for monero. Say you're npub, we'll whitelist you

I can't believe his justification is making dark web using Lighting.

I haven't heard about this rumor. Where'd you hear it?

Further, the primal link that XMR_loving_AnCap just put up

🤣 Clowns. Instead of fixing their coin they attack other working coins to push people into their BS LN.

*Edit: Looks like they have given up for now, the good part is we do not need to attack BTC, it is under perpetual attack from itself 👍

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Monero will weather this and be fine. I'd prefer to wait on tx at this point rather than consider LN as a better alternative.

What service are you using that generates the mempool tx with those graphics?

Edit: nevermind, found it: https://tx.town/

He posted it earlier. Then when asked if he was behind it, he said "maybe"
