Welcome to /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 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. A MoneroChad will be with you shortly.

>but to the new paradigm that this technology might bring: compliant wallets that can prove they have neither received nor sent XMR to or from other tainted wallets, versus other wallets that have not yet proven this, leaving them considered tainted until proven otherwise.
View balance keys can't do this.

>>61758509
>That only works if there is a massive scale of collected view keys.
It doesn't and my example from earlier was wrong.
See:

And
https://github.com/jeffro256/carrot/blob/master/carrot.md#93-forward-secrecy
CARROT txs are unlinkable on chain even if you know the destination address. The best anyone can do is guess.
If you know the view key of a wallet, you can tell
>where internal enotes are received
>where/if they are spent
>the amounts
But not where those enotes came from

Therefore my example here >>61704945
>If coinbase has outgoing view keys for Alice and Bob, they can tell that Alice sent coins to Bob
Should actually be
>If coinbase has outgoing view keys for Alice and Bob, they can guess that Alice sent coins to Bob, but they can't guarantee that Bob didn't receive coins from Amerah from ISIS.

If I'm reading the documentation correctly.

This fud actually made me dig in to the CARROT side of things, so thanks for being retarded I guess.

Also a pro tip for my Monero bros. You can mine more XMR by mining Nerva and trading for Monero on NonKyc. There's a XMR/XNV pair.

With a decent 16 core CPU you can mine around 50-60 XNV a day which is about 0.004 XMR right now. If you mined Monero directly with the same CPU power you would only get around 0.0007 XMR a day, so about six times more Monero for the same hash rate.

they actually lost a MASSIVE chunk of circulating supply on tradeogre, which means that each coin is actually astronomically more valuable, technically speaking.

It depends on the wallet.
See:

The CLI/GUI wallet will warn you if your owned outputs don't have matching key images and your balance might be incorrect.

Coingecko and Coinmarketcap has already been engaged for relisting, should be back up including legacy data next week. Listings fell off after TradeOgre got taken down.

Devs are active on Discord, you can drop in any time and ask about the project. I find legacy privacy coins fascinating. It won't replace Monero but there's growing demand for privacy coins where it'll find it's own space.

In the last nerva shill thread your cohort said the ring size doesn't matter (>>61751539 and more) . If they're talking about it and if the last push (this isn't even about updates but literally the last time ANY acceptable development was done) was two years ago you all will need at least one year to get to the state of being able to update ANYTHING.

>that can be said about literally any coin, ever
No, most coins are not mined in pairs. What I'm saying is that Qubit also positioned itself as a pro-XMR coin/AI/whatever else cfb needs to shill to investors. Eating up XMR's hashrate and mc isn't pro-XMR. Telling us to avoid the 16-ring-size coin for the 5-ring-size coin isn't pro-16.
>its entirely logically good news to anyone who does trading.
No, it's you piggybacking off something respected and thereby trying to bolster your own reputation while being a downgrade in every conceivable way. The only pro-nerva argument you have is that you misunderstand and misrepresent the potential changes of carrot when its finally introduced. Otherwise nerva is in every way just a massive downgrade.
>why?

Also "Starting in 2012, the committee has transitioned to a “decoupled” model where major pieces of work can progress independently from the Standard itself and be delivered in “feature branch” TSes."
>C (17.2%)
New standard after last nerva release
>python (0.4%)
The current versions that still receive bug fixes weren't available during the last nerva release. If they are lucky, the used a version which is still getting security updates but that isn't guaranteed either.
Over 96% of your code is based on outdated versions of languages. The one open issue you have has been sitting around for 2 years. That issue was already fixed by XMR. When upstream fixes an issue before you even though it's just a simple line that needs to be added you are doing something completely wrong. The "closed" issure isn't even solved, it's just a won't-fix for something menial.
>>
>>61767380
Remember when you said nerva came from XMR devs? I find that interesting because the devs on the nerva repo are
1. A 23-year old indian. No connection to XMR.
2. A 25 year old malaysian, his one linked repo on his profile isn't even nerva lol. Forked some XMR-adjacent project once, didn't do any work on it.
3. Some guy who now focuses on two other coins and hasn't contributed on github in over a year. No connection to XMR but at least he made a bot that checks how often you said owo in discord.
4. Another guy who also hasn't contributed in over a year. No connection to XMR.
5. And the unsung hero who published the nerva whitepaper. His pinned repos are all about other wallets and miners but nothing about nerva. If you looked at his profile you'd read about turtlecoin (what even is that?), XMR and cryptonote before you see the teeny tiny mention of nerva. He at least contributed to OTHER projects in the last year. Also forked some XMR-adjacent projects but did no work. Also seemingly close friends with the indian since he's one of the two people who commented on the indian's site about what a hard worker he is and both of them are the only ones considered a core part of the nerva project.
Where is your amazing XMR dev you talked about? Where is the exciting new development? Looks like you're friends with one of the devs and try to pump his bags. What do you offer besides literal FUD about XMR? You don't even understand the basics of programming. Your coin has been dead for YEARS. Maybe invest in turtlecoin instead, there seems to be much more interest.

jesus christ, im not reading any more of your blog posts. If you have to write that much, then you're grasping at straws. if you had read the website which has many nooks and crannies, youd know that it was the nerva devs who actually developed some of the privacy improvements that were incorporated into XMR, but it being a separate project did not incorporate all of the ideas. Cryptonight-adaptive being one of those ideas, which nerva uses.

>This is the third general in the row that debunked that retarded carrot is le bad nonsense
Any incorporation of new attack vectors that add questionable to no benefits is not a good thing and you know it. monero reddit removing posts that even ask about it is a BIG FAT RED FLAG.

>If you have to write that much, then you're grasping at straws.
I collected all of your arguments and completely disproved them. Your devs are shit. You have no dev work done anymore. Everything you use is outdated.
>website
I care about the code, not the website with PR speech. If you check the website you'd also see that nerva doesn't even have any development planned for two years. For two years you have open issues and you do NO dev work? You spent all of 2025 to 'grow Nerva's X presence'.
Even when you look at the site, it says nothing about having done any dev work that was pushed upstream. However, you can easily find typos.
>youd know that it was the nerva devs who actually developed some of the privacy improvements that were incorporated into XMR
Which one of the five contributors? None of the ones listed on github have ever pushed any change to monero. Which dev? Which PR? According to nerva's website nerva 'utilizes exclusive cryptonight adaptive algorithm' so that's clearly not the same.
>new attack vectors
You mean none?
>to no benefits
What's the benefit of nerva having a significantly lower ring size?
>monero reddit removing posts that even ask about it is a BIG FAT RED FLAG.
Because that's the same retarded fud that you have spewed despite us having shown you again and again that the supposed attack vector doesn't even exist. Not knowing that software can become outdated is a much bigger red flag. Tell me, do your devs know that they are running outdated software and allowing your finances and privacy to be at risk or are they simply unaware of that?

You held on for 11 minutes. And you still haven't answered any of my concerns about

2. No relevant price development for months
3. No code development being bad. It wasn't even maintained!
4. You ignoring everyone in the general and samefagging.
5. You using qubit logic to onboard people.
6. You having less than one third of our ring size.
7. You acting like a parasite.
8. Your devs being nonames (that sadly have their real life names on their own sites).
9. 96.6% of your code base being potentially outdated.
>this is the funniest thing i've seen all year
Will it also be funny when the IRS will 'stalk' your devs by visiting their personal sites linked on their github pages and you losing all your funds because you trusted some random 23 year old raj? If XMR was as weak as you all the markets that rely on us would've collapsed already.

And then they can check the generals and see that in the last two weeks, out of nowhere despite carrot being talked about years ago, this fud started and is shutdown in mere minutes by anyone who actually reads what carrot will influence.

Shills normally don't provide sources. Which is why I'm asking you to back up your claim about nerva pushing code upstream. No, the site doesn't mention it.
>XMR isn't ASIC resistant
These are the best fudders they got?
>the spewing made it somewhat fun.

This is actually not true, the reddit comments end without replies to their concerns, and the ones defending the change occasionally recognize that theyre wrong. There has been no dev commentary so far.

>I even scoured your js-riddled site just to find that there isn't the claim of the mysterious XMR dev.
then you didnt scour hard enough, or perhaps it was lost inbetween site changes. It may have been on the whitepaper, idk. I remember reading it.

>XMR isn't ASIC resistant
>These are the best fudders they got?
thats not a selling point for xmr, and the fudders arent talking about that anyway.

> tell me why we should use a ring size of 5 instead of 16.
the new fork with fcmp++ or whatever will make it 1000 instead of 16, but with a backdoor built in, who cares? No one has broken the ring size of 5 yet. An ounce of development and nerva smokes xmr

Like i said, drop the hostility and take time to think. nerva wasnt shilled out of the blue, some anon was asking for an alternative to monero due to the hard fork the other night, and they came across nerva. i also did some scouring and deemed it to be a decent monero replacement. rather than accuse nerva of being shilled, ask yourself why your covering monero's dev team's asses when theyre deliberately fucking up?

Planning on buying XMR for the first time. Should I just buy XMR directly from my KYC exchange, or buy a liquid coin and swap it?

>>61769129
Either one is fine.
Once the coin is in your wallet it's private so it's all good in the end.

Either way, if you're paranoid about it swap.
I bought on Binance back then for my first 11 and have no reason to worry despite KYC.

No it shows how disingenuous you are. You're just trying to get some gotchas here but fail to notice that you seem like a little weasel in the process.
>no i didnt, keep reading below
Yes you did. Keep reading all of the generals we had since the carrot fud started.
>the reddit comments end without replies to their concerns
Yes, most of the community doesn't spend its time to correct fud. I do because I love to use this later to show how you'll avoid everything you said in the past (like having the XMR dev that is prominently shown on the website) just so you don't seem like loser in this sad conversation.
>There has been no dev commentary so far.
So you didn't read the sources?
>then you didnt scour hard enough
Now you're even saying control+f isn't good enough for your tastes?
>perhaps it was lost inbetween site changes
So you don't even know what's in the sources you use! Also I checked, none of the 303 contributors on the XMR repo are also on any of the nerva repos.
>It may have been on the whitepaper
It doesn't contain the words 'Monero', 'XMR, 'cryptonight' or 'upstream'. Also a whitepaper wouldn't even talk about the devs, their previous work or other cryptocurrencies (unless it's directly forked from it but even then it's not advisable).
>Source: I remember reading it.
...
>thats not a selling point for xmr,
Yes being ASIC resistant is a selling point. We always made fun of the centralization of hashing power in BTC and that's why we have randomx.
>and the fudders arent talking about that anyway.
My point is that you are not educated about XMR at all. The difference in mining is that you have pools and we don't. That's the big difference. Feel free to tell me how that helps you with anything (it doesn't).
>1000 instead of 16,
No. That is blatantly wrong.
>>
>>61769004
>but with a backdoor built in
Which one? Where is it? No it's not carrot related. Carrot right now would only give you what >>61761926 described. Carrot when we have fcmp++ would give you pretty much nothing to track us in any way. This is why, and we already told you this multiple times, carrot will come with fcmp++.
>No one has broken the ring size of 5 yet.
The whole point of the ring size isn't that it gets broken but even if you are deanonymized somehow (which is far more likely with your outdated 0.2 release - yes you're not even at a full release stage) and they say 'We know you have been involved in this transaction' you can tell them 'You can only be 1/ring size sure that it was me'. The legal defense is immensely stronger with a higher ring size. Therefore you have no reason to artificially keep the ring size down.
>drop the hostility
This is me being nice. I want you retards to have your own generals, stay in them and not bother us. Instead your cohort spams this thread, shits up the board and all for some ring size 5 v0.2 crypto currency that hasn't seen development in 2 years.
>nerva wasnt shilled out of the blue
Admitting that this shilling isn't organic is a ballsy strategy.
>a decent monero replacement.
No development, minimal ring size, minimal shilling leads to massive jump in price (this means it was so dead that just two or three retards here put pennies in and it exploded) and hash rate, relisting (meaning the jews don't see it as a problem), still no argument against XMR. The only reason nerva was even created was the unfounded hatred for pools.
>deliberately fucking up?
Because they are not fucking up. Just read the sources for once.

>man writes more unanswered blogs than AI

this guy seems to think i somehow trans-exist across threads and generals. and while i have been here for a few of them, (at least the first time when a rando anon mentioned nerva while seeking a new privacy coin, some threads i never even posted) he thinks ive somehow followed him to personally attack him across space-time.

No I think you're one of the retards that has been pushing nerva for days now. You got the same exact writing style like the guy I'm thinking of.
>oh and remember, you started this:
Correct. And you still didn't close the issue that has been open for two years.
>I don't wanna fight.
Then fuck off already. We don't want you in the MONERO thread. We want to talk about MONERO, not something that has been forked from monero and since then made no improvements while also not implementing any of the benefits we had. You are free to leave. No one is making you stay here and show everyone that you can't even answer one simple question about your little insecure shitcoin. If you wanted to save face you'd act like >>61768875 and just ignore even the most basic questions but by constantly engaging with me you are showing how much time you like to waste while not even denying any of the claims made against nerva.

Shilling your bags so you can pnd on some retards is way worse than my writing style.
>cryptonight-adaptive is an improvement
And nowhere mentioned on the website except for being 'utilized' in a sentence with a grammar mistake. It also doesn't say that it comes from nerva devs. The claim that the nerva devs implemented cryptonight is simply unfounded.
>no pools is an improvement
Incorrect. This only pushes for people to have their own CPU farms. So basically the same as BTC ASIC farms in which only the ones who got the most liquid fiat funds have the most say about the hash rate.
>cpu-only is an improvement
We already have that. Look into what randomx is.
>the new OVK backdoor you mean that has went unanswered
Not a backdoor. Doesn't do the things you ascribed to it. Wouldn't work even if it did those things. Would still require opt-in.

You mean the dev that isn't both a contributor to nerva and xmr? Did github lie too? How come you still haven't named him yet or sent a source to your claims?

You provided zero (0) sources. I gave you multiple chances to give any source while also visiting your shitty site AND github.

>>
>>61769802
its probably a joke, considering the anon-bot-5000 that has been replying to me seems to also think it has been shilled for weeks, and at most the first thread was maybe 5 days ago. I remember some anon asking about an alternative due to OVK issue, and then they made a thread about it. Since then it seems to be on the move upward and is being talked about, whether its a pump and dump i dont know. It seems legit, the discord is active, and i do vaguely recall when the coin was created a few years ago so it has been around for a while.

>paid to advertise this
i think its just the fact that it got relisted on an exchange after being delisted years ago, and its doing well as far as i can tell.

to those here wondering if i was responding to an AI shill bot, heres your answer:

Put these above sentences into a text editor that can change it from all lower case to all upper case. The bot didnt respond because the bot couldnt read what i had written. lower case L's and upper case i's look similar to us, but not to a bot. You're welcome /biz/. That's why it finally didn't respond to my post above. The real question is, why is this bot promoting monero?

Gentlemen.

I currently only own XMR.

I'm not going to sell any of my XMR, but I have some cash to spend and was thinking about buying at least one other crypto to add some diversity to my "portfolio".

So what other cryptos are worth buying? I'm not interested in BTC because I think it's just a worse version of Monero, but there has to be some other stuff out there worth buying?

What about LINK? ETH? maybe even XRP? (I know it's centralised, but it's still a hedge against inflation and it's fast). Please don't recommend me any meme coins.

Thanks in advance.

What does the price being lower has to do with usage?
Most usage is zoomers buying drugs on a darknet market and they just want $50 worth of XMR, it doesn't matter what the price actually is.

But it would be better for adoption, dev confidence, and new money coming in for Monero to climb the marketcap ladder and go back to the top 10. It's number 14 right now.
>>
>>61769961
I sold all my other coins and only have Monero because I believe in it long term and USDC/USDT because I put it on AAVE to get the 6% APY.

If I had to buy something I would guess ETH since that's where the stable coins are so at least it won't go to 0.

The best thing for confidence would be a stable price. If you have some good you want some specified amount of USD for you have to set your price in XMR overly high to combat dumps or let the prices be calculated dynamically which could worsen customer experience. I'd also guess there's some psychological benefit for those who want to buy XMR and see that they don't have to spend a lot to have a balance not starting in 0.

>>61771939
>Use a strong password (your biometrics are not a password)
Depending on your jurisdiction biometrics might be favorable to a password. I'd say the best way to avoid jurisdictional trouble would be to have a duress pin and give that one when you're asked for a pin. I'm unsure how to feel about panic apps though. I like the concept but I'd think it's hard to quickly press the panic button while you're getting raided. In general phones just seem less acceptable for high threat models.

i wipe my ass with security keys, password managers, 2fa, passkeys, TOTPs

i am currently theory-crafting a way to memorize 3200 bits of (pseudo)random entropy by way of a custom mnemonic system which would allow me to ditch all other passwords and just use subsections of this one

FUD about the new view keys, that they allow deanonymizing the chain. In reality, they don't change much compared to the old ones, if your goal was mass surveillance.
