Welcome to the /XMR/ Monero General, dedicated to the discussion of the world's most widely adopted privacy coin.XMR payments are anonymous, low-fee, and fully fungible. Users can send and receive XMR globally without having to worry about tainted coins. Battle-tested privacy tech (Ring Signatures, Stealth Addresses and RingCT) ensures that critical TX data cannot be gleaned from the Monero blockchain; the TX history of all XMR users is kept hidden, with TXs being optionally transparent via the aid of a view key.XMR ensures low TX fees by employing a dynamic (elastic) block size that can "stretch" to easily accommodate sudden TX spikes.XMR's mining algorithm, RandomX, is optimized for devices using general-purpose CPUs e.g. desktops, laptops, smartphones, tablets, keeping the barrier to entry low and ASICs out of the equation.XMR's tail emission - 0.6 XMR per block forever - incentivizes for-profit miners to keep mining, helping boost long-term network security. This constant linear inflation trends to zero and is offset by coin loss.XMR has proven to be the only altcoin capable of overcoming BTC's network effect by driving it out of the darknet economy BTC dominated for over 10 years. XMR is also starting to overtake BTC in clearnet commerce as well.If you still have questions, feel free to ask.

My monero mining setup. It was doing pretty good yesterday with about 70 watts input and 40 watts output. It's really cloudy and foggy this morning so I'm only getting about 6 watts input though. We'll see how the weather goes -- not good weather for mining so far.

https://arxiv.org/pdf/2512.01437looks like qubic was not very effective
>>61451885> we find that the campaign was profitable in only a small subset of intervals. Nonetheless, Qubic's activity sharply increases orphan rates and reorganization depth, degrading confirmation reliability. This illustrates that even economically fragile selfish mining campaigns can still impose meaningful harm, and that existing mitigation approaches offer limitations against such behavior in practice.
>>61447644>https://www.getmonero.org/get-started/mining/>Monero can be mined by both CPUs and GPUs, but the former is much more efficient.It's more efficient to mine with a CPU than with a GPU??
>>61452837Of course.

Monerobros, why has XMR been abandoned? I don't just mean by regular CEXesm, or even Bitpay and other payment processors--it's been left behind by the original darkweb libertardian fags, too. What gives?

I forget exactly how much but I think someone estimated that these things cost around 10k apiece to build.
If I buy XMR on Kucoin, can I then send it directly to trocador or retoswap and swap it to an ERC-20 token and send the token to a wallet, without that wallet being linked to my CEX account?Or is there a better way of acquiring tokens via XMR to remove link between CEX and wallet?
>>61456398>212kH for 3k isn't a bad price at all but you can probably build something more efficient per watt for the same amount of moneyCorrection: you can probably build something with brand new mid-tier epycs that's way more efficient and break even in a year vs 3 years with the X5. No wonder Bitmain lost money.
>>61447648>MINISFORUM 795S7>Ryzen 7940HXThat's a nice find, although hashes vs watts it's comparable to undervolted 7950X, so if you add RAM (even before price hikes) the cost is also similar to building a 7950X rig from used parts. Of course, new vs used.Has anyone looked at EPYC builds, whether they're better deal at say $2k mark?
Interesting. How does this alt coin protect against double spend and also how can you validate the number in existence if you cannot walk through the transactions?

>>61459323how feasible is it in reality for CEXs to do cross chain analysis and really track the movement/source of your funds? like even if they have a "no withdrawing funds which originated as XMR" rule, if you have XMR and then like swap it for ETH and then swap that for LTC and then swap that for DOGE and then... and finally swap for BTC and then withdraw to the CEX, always using different random exchange services, are they really gonna be able to tell where that money came from? it seems unlikely unless you're trying to withdraw a shit ton of money, right?
>>61461185>how feasible is it in reality for CEXs to do cross chain analysis and really track the movement/source of your funds?It's an open secret that most swap services get their liquidity from Kucoin, so it's pretty likely that at those swaps are going to be seen on chain by them at least>>61456961Assuming you already have the XMR on Kuckin, sell on retoswap for stablecoins first, for reasons stated above.
It's interesting how zcash re-flipped but the board didn't explode with shills this time around. Think they all got liquidated so now it's just the actual scamwhales wash trading.
The zcash shills flooding the board was actually insane. So fake.
I'm new to cryptos, but based on my cursory research XMR seems to be the only currency that has any kind of purpose. Am I missing something?
>>61466053Not really, but prepare to be holding it longer/more painfully than any other alt if you're looking to make it exclusively from XMR.
>>61466061I set aside some money for XMR, but most of my savings I put into an index fund, or individial stocks if I'm feeling frisky
>>61459323retoswap is based on a regular non-custodial monero wallet and uses tor by default, so you could send it directly to that. you should not send directly to any custodial exchanges though, thats correct.
>>61465505>The zcash shills flooding the board was actually insane. So fake.My favorite bullshit narrative is that Zcash is Satoshi's vision of what he ultimately intended BTC to be.>>61466053>I'm new to cryptos, but based on my cursory research XMR seems to be the only currency that has any kind of purpose. Am I missing something?Correct. XMR is pretty much the only crypto that is specifically acquired to be spent on goods and services in the growing digital counter-economy. Everything else is just hoarded with the hope it will pump.
>>61466053>Am I missing something?You are correct that Monero is basically the only thing that is actually used or has non-meme purpose. If you're buying it to make money just know that it historically has had very crabby price action and is joked about for being a stablecoin.Basically view it as a private Swiss savings account that you>mightmake money off of if you get lucky, not as a crypto lottery ticket.
Reminder that Monero (XMR) actually does follow the laws of supply and demand. Shocking, I know. Meaning that if people actually want to purchase it for any number of extremely valid reasons, the price will increase. So despite many people on this board and in this community having some weird aloofness with regard to price, it actually isn't "luck" that will make people money in XMR. It is the fact that it's an extremely attractive coin and many more will purchase it in the future.

Can I just send directly to a swap from a CEX? I heard some people say they flag stuff like that.
>>61491811Preferable to send it to your personal wallet first.
>>61491924Doesn't their analysis still see that?
>>61491929No they don't. They can't see the history of the Monero coins they receive, that's the whole point.
>>61491811I never had a problem. Swaps should be giving a unique address for each transaction but I'm not sure. A small test with FixedFload confirms this. I guess it would only become a problem if they reused the same addresses many times. Otherwise I don't see how they would flag it.
>>61492076This is for CEX to Swap. For the reverse, receiving from a swap to a snitchcoin wallet, it's labeled on blockchain explorers as a FixedFloat wallet. So in theory if you sold XMR through a swap directly to CEX, the CEX could detect it as coming from a swap, for what it's worth.
>>61491173it appears that the new floor is around 330, i don't think we're going back there unless the market shits itself.>t. not a TAutist>t. DCAutist
>>61485529liquidity for the pump has to come from somewhere and since most cexes have delisted it (even the fucking kraken) you have to either mine or use dexes instead. this means that in terms of liquidity monero is probably even safer than stablecoins but it also will not 'moon' (probably).
>>61493107I bought Monero with USD on Kraken within the past 3 months.
>>61491173Hard to tell because XMR seems to have decoupled from the rest of the market, which makes negative price predictions far more difficult. It no longer dumps in unison with BTC.
Why are you complaining about the price? I'm happy that if anything it hasn't dumped below $350. You realize it's basically bear market now? Crypto is weak. There is zero hype. Unlike the previous Monero pumps that were quick spikes, price is actually holding a strong base. Monero is also like top 15 market cap right now for fucks sake. Normally you'd be lucky to see it in 20s. It even fell to 40s. >>61485529Pump to do what? Dump it the next day? The floor is king.

>>61494328I hope you will succeed in educating the moonfag
Moonfags are the most useless niggers on the planet, which is what makes propagating the Terrible Investment meme is such a joy. Words can't describe the thrill of convincing somebody to not hold XMR but to spend it on goods and services instead. Borderline orgasmic.

The currency might have hyper inflated in the meantime! The only legitimate reference is what that guy from Austria is asking for cheese as priced in XMR.
>>61495418This aversion to the cost of XMR increasing is silly and self-destructive.If you want a stablecoin, you can fork and peg XMR to the dollar yourself.The price going up means that mining is incentivized, mining being incentivized means the network becomes more secure. The community has been very open about not wanting tail emission's payout to increase. That means that tthe network's security consists of only two kinds of people:>Charitable supporters willing to mine at a loss>Malicious attackersYou NEED the price to go up if you want the network security to increase because the payout value in XMR will not. If you're relying entirely on charitable miners to run at a loss against state actors and groups like Qubic you're just asking for the network to get overtaken in time.
>>61495654What do you mean “”””””””go up”””””””””?If you’re talking about the fake inflated asset known as the United States Dollar (ticker: $USD) you should know that the Federal Reserve literally PRINTS these “dollars” on a whim!??Therefore, $1 is ackchually equivalent to $1,000,000,000.

>>61495869Anon's point is pretty clear. There's no actual benefit in XMR nguing unless you solely want it as a means to moon. The parallel economy Monero users wish to achieve isn't concerned with XMR being $100000 or 0.05; it only matters if you're still primarily concerned about fiat.
>>61493638well, i wanted to exchange some yesterday and it's not possible anymore so i had to use cake wallet instead. i guess it's still using a centralized exchange but yeah - in yurope they're starting to delist it so it's a good time to learn to use dexes.
>>61495654>You NEED the price to go up if you want the network security to increase because the payout value in XMR will not.Sure, but how ngu happens matters. Fuck taking shortcuts, this is about more than just pumping your heavy bags. I want my parallel economy so I can troll the IRS.
>>61495869>>61495908I’m amazed neither of you detected the sarcasm
>>61495940There's a reason moonfags never tell you to mine>>61495970He who echoes bad ideas while veiling himself behind supposed sarcasm will be made an example of.
>>61495976You’re a faggot
>>61495970I've been interacting with too many zcash shills.>>61495908Monero will not achieve a perfectly circular economy without the price going up because you'll still need the necessary liquidity for a significant portion of real-world value (with or without precise fiat terms) to be tradeable.
Can Monero really flip Chainlink within the next year?

>>61497522It sure hasnt in the past 10 years
>>61497833To be frank, idk what chainlink is and I couldn't care less. All I did was perform the classic scam test known as googling "is xyz an erc20 token"
>resyncing node that was a few months out of date>gets to about ~1 month behind>starts printing "Host blocked" messages for a couple of dozen IPs>sync completely stalls and just hangs forever nowThe fuck happened? Every few minutes I get a new block detected message, "SYNCHRONIZATION STARTED" to the new height, and absolutely nothing. It's not actually syncing a single block now.Actually not absolutely nothing, it just blocked a couple more IPs.Is the network under attack or is my node fucked somehow? I'd rather not take a week resyncing an entirely new node from scratch, but it's really not clear to me what's happened to mine. Should I try to force reset the blocklist by passing an empty one? I don't have a bitmonero.conf so I'm actually not sure if it's even persisting the blocks across restarts or if it's just fucking stalled.
>>61496424You a golem, that's way worse because even if you have kids they'll be so cucked that your lineage will die with them unless they adopt some poor asian boy they can groom. >>61496547>Monero will not achieve a perfectly circular economy without the price going up because you'll still need the necessary liquidity for a significant portion of real-world value (with or without precise fiat terms) to be tradeable.I believe you're basing it still on valuations found in the fiat markets. This assumes the existing tradfi markets were already perfectly rational but I think we can both disagree with that.
>>61497877nvm figured it out
>>61495933Kraken in the US still has xmr, idk about Canada anymore. Elsewhere it is not listed on the exchange.
Are you retards still yelling over each others about the false dichotomy of store of value and medium of exchange? Monero will always be useful for both secret store of wealth and private medium of exchange. Both sides keep seething. >>61497247It did already a few time so why not?
>>61498253>Are you retards still yelling over each others about the false dichotomy of store of value and medium of exchange?I've tried to explain it to both sides and have come to the conclusion that they don't want to understand; moonfag bad bakecel bad

I finally installed an app to check Monero prices. I was tired of checking for dips

OP forgot to post the P2pool pasta. shame on them. Also p2pool nano hasn't found a block in NINE FUCKING DAYS. I'm gonna kms not even kidding
>>61499693>braveI wish to take my post back, I'm now siding with app-anon
>>61499693I just keep monero.how in a tab I never close next to the xmr general tab I never close.
>>61499693Idk why brave didn't do it with eur! Literally didn't trigger the instant price answer.
>>61497879While fiat is the most available ruler by which to quantify a value (even if fiat itself loses value) the sentiment works independent of it. Even if you used say, gold as the metric for XMR's value and liquidity, you would still hit the conclusion that you need XMR to be worth more gold, nominally if it is to consume a significant portion of the real-world economy into its circular ecosystem, because that portion of the economy is worth a certain amount of gold and the entire XMR network is not yet.
>>61499791What? Duckduckgo si shit and google is google. Cry all you like, but brave search on firefox is the superior choice.
>>61500144Just use searx.>>61499953I get your point but I think the prices of most goods currently don't reflect their actual value.
>>61500409>searxThanks for telling me about it

>>61498895I don't follow shitcoins. What does this mean? XMR is on some kind of ETH dex?

>>61502931So... what's the advantage over haveno?
>>61502948absolutely none if you just want to buythis is for long/shorts betting
>>61502948but historically, monero is the most shorted coin overall. so this could be another attack vector by bad actors.this link shows data from bitfinex futures market>https://datamish.com/xmrusd/360d
Welp. I tried p2pool folks. Unfortunately it's just not for me. It doesn't find a block often enough and the opportunity cost is too high. I'm switching back to Hashvault.
>>61502977Interresting. So we could use shorts as an early warning for an incoming financial attack
>>61502977>historically, monero is the most shorted coin overall.Imagine shorting the only crypto that's actually used.
>>61499753Yeah, sadly p2pool-nano got some bad luck lately. Switched to p2pool-mini and it's pretty gud.
>>61503020Which sidechain are you using? Mini gets a block every 9 hours on average, and it's not too competitive.

Whyd God have to put me in the most retarded niggertard place? Anyway bros, can you break even with mining? i dont really care about earning a profit, i just wanna contribute.
>>61507368Are you unable to at least buy btc in your location? You can then exchange it with xmr on any of the crypto to crypto exchanges, which are not limited by location
>>61498253I resent the SoViets, they killed bitcoin
>>61498245it's almost as if they want me to use shady unregulated services to buy/sell monero. their loss as i will not stop using it lmao. but yeah if i was a burger i would stock up on xmr through a cex so if i were to sell it i'd have something to show to the taxman.
Wtf is this shitcoin doing?t. maybe a holder maybe not
>>61508396>have something to show to the taxman.Dumb cuck, just say it was a gift/donation. Better yet, spend it without converting to fiat. Buy gold, buy silver, buy a used fucking cumsock, fucking anything is better than paper money at this point

>>61518022Yeah, but how trustless is it?
I think price discovery for XMR will be really interesting. I’m convinced there’s no way to really know where the price will go. Like there’s no reference point at all. It’s the first and only coin that actually fulfills the properties of money. Everything else has either been hijacked and financialized or never had any demand outside market makers in the first place. Like I have no idea how to value a real cryptocurrency it’s the first one
>>61518273>Like I have no idea how to value a real cryptocurrencyThe most realistic metric would be real-world economic activity, namely the demand from actual users rather than profit seekers. Crypto runs on hype and manipulation and when you take those out of the equation, what you have left is what's real.
tx volume hasn't really gone up. Little weird, but perhaps its just a few whales moving in for now. Will be interesting to see if this picks up
Will tptb let xmr go into price discovery without suppression or will they try removing it from the few exchanges it remains on?

I had a vivid dream yesterday night that I solo mined a Monero block. I had booted up xmrig with the official gui wallet on my Windows PC as I sometimes do irl to keep my feet warm from the exhaust coming out of the bottom of my PC which is on the floor. For some reason in the dream, I had booted two instances of xmrig and used Process Explorer to set the CPU affinity so that each process ran using half the available CPUs (no idea why I would want to do that but it was a dream so hey). After looking at the output for a few seconds I suddenly saw the "Accepted" message, I glanced to see if it was in a donation cycle but it wasn't, and I was like wtf? Did I just mine a block? and then I saw my mining wallet balance jump 1.763... something monero. I was so excited I ran into the living room and told my wife. Then I woke up. It felt so real Anons, it felt so real...
>>61524553Don't let your dreams be dreams Anon. I solo mined a monero block the first day I downloaded the client and bought/held an undisclosed amount from then on
>>61524553>my wifethat's how you know it was a dream
Zcash will enter its next cycle of shilling in 2025, right before FCMP++ drops and then, dominate the market cap in privacy coins space.

>>61525975>>61525050>>61525975>Shit like this is the kiss of death for actual adoption, "compliant privacy" + corporate sponsorship guarantees zero endorsement by reputable Opsec gurus.Don't forget deFi and smart contracts and a gorillion txs/sec. All while maintaining top notch privacy.I forget who said it (spirobel?) but this is zcash's real problem: it doesn't know what it wants to be when it grows up. The sniff test says it's smells like a pre-2018 shitcoin
>>61526796It hasn't even started yet.
should I swap $100 of BTC into XMR now or wait until the exchange rate is better? I am going to do it eventually but it seems way too high right now.
>>61527156IMO you have more to lose by waiting than you do to gain. I would make the switch now
>>61526850Go for it. If XMR falls to $250 (the qubic bottom), you'll lose $50 but still have $50 worth of XMR

uhhhh bros? i overheard some finance bros talking about investing in monero on the train today…
>>61533431top signal
>>615299051. Get a hardware wallet. Desi Cypherock X1 is surprisingly good but doesn't support XMR - I bought it before deciding to go XMR. Ledger / Trezor are good for starting out. If you buy Ledger wallets, you get a small amount of starter BTC. 2. Be patient and buy any crypto for cash from a known / recommended 3rd party. I was able to find a seller within a week of starting to look. 3. Set up wallets and experiment with seed phrase safekeeping, protocols, etc and swap the BTC to XMR. optional: download a node on your computer (hope you have an SSD with ~300gb of space if you want a full node). Run p2pool and xmrig so you can get excited about mining small amounts of currency, it's fun.Don't be too scared to swap currency around, the fees are low, I paid something like ₹5
