Hm. I guess I have to get out the 'ol hose and canister again.
With how saturated the mining community is, you have to buy a Bugatti, put a brick on the gas pedal, all while sitting in neutral gear, and leave it running for 24/7.
Bitcoin=Snitchcoin
Monero won’t broadcast every exchange’s handler’s details: IP address, ID, time & Date, Amount, Target, Totals, etc.
Just use Lightning and you’ll have literally the same onion routing as Tor. Monero doesn’t hide your IP address or dates either.
If there’s ever an inflation bug in Monero (like the value overflow incident), it will go undetected.
Doesn’t stop the transaction from being broadcast all details. TOR or not don’t matter. Broadcast of all details is %100 lightning or not. Monero DOES “hide” your details. It may be visible that I access the Monero network if I don’t ride a VPN but it doesn’t matter. No more info about said usage is broadcast.
I can see you used PornHub today too. Should have used a VPN. I know how long you watched each of those videos too. Maybe find a VPN that accepts Monero, not the Snitchcoin.
“Bug” LMFAO
We don’t strongly disagree here - we’re both protecting our online privacy by bouncing that traffic around a little, through either a VPN or Tor.
We’re betting our freedom on the assumption that the bad guys won’t compromise each hop. It’s easier for them to compromise PornHub and then my VPN than it is to compromise each LN hop. So Monero won’t make my wanking any safer; the dick police will just go after the weakest link.
The value overflow incident was a bug that allowed some dude to give himself a bazillion bitcoins. It was caught and fixed before he spent any.
Fraud. Zcash is closed source. Also it’s a backdoor backstabbing snitch coin too. Touching that is ignorant.
Willing to be wrong as I mostly observe from afar but the repo is here: https://github.com/zcash/zcash
How z-to-z shielded transactions using zero-knowledge proofs snitching?
Yeah but you could actually do useful things with the power from an idling car.
I didn’t mean literally a car, I was going a long with their metaphor.
I saw a Veritasium video where they use a massive engine as part of a whole facility that tests buildings for earthquakes. That’s not something that’s going to be a problem. And in some applications, fossil fuels are what makes sense to use.
We should definitely use them in as few applications as possible, but yeah, if you wanna act like we should stop using them completely, in all applications, you can keep hallucinating.
they real story is more interesting. it’s just a shame that the incentives were aligned a bit askew. people gonna people.
… in that it wasn’t a scam from the beginning…
Scammers just saw an opportunity later.
Yes it was, lol. By design it can only function as a ponzi scheme, the itention might have been something else behind it but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t a scam from the get go
