I know there must be a way despite Monero's confidential nature. The cryptography is way over my head. Monero contributors, could you please help explain the maths? And also how to calculate the supply curve considering the tail emission. Thanks :)

For those who are curious...there have been quite a few over zealous people so happy to announce thier project they have always thought of developing. First thing..... stay away until there is a true audit on the code. Also, to mention, there seems to be a new scam trick with a lot of people coming to reddit to let everyone know about their project they have in development, and they welcome users to come try it, stress test it, send thier money with escrow and 2way signature beware of bad actors and trickster as now days you can ask AI to code you anything. They can tell AI to make somthing look legit to someone that isn't vetted in the community and that same code will take your money the moment you let it go. They can have many profiles coming to make it seem as tho other people are down for trying it out. All I can say is prepare for the worst and hope for the best. That's your best defense. If you have questions get ahold of the 1% of the community as they are atleast known for what they have to offer. Take care.

Hi guys!
Good morning/afternoon/evening!
As you may know, Qubic has increased its [Monero mining fee](https://miningpoolstats.stream/monero), and along with that its creator (and owner) has made some very weird tweets related to it
• https://x.com/c___f___b/status/1932028222415237325
• https://x.com/c___f___b/status/1931639596846084536
What's more, there seems to be a lot of pro-qubic propaganda.
- https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1ktff3a/qubic_is_earning_8000day_by_mining_monero_only/
- https://www.reddit.com/r/Crypto_Currency_News/comments/1kz4gpn/qubic_leads_in_cpu_mining_profitability/
- https://www.reddit.com/r/cpumining/comments/1l78x0v/highest_cpu_mining_profits_right_now_its_not/
Do you think this is an attempt to attack the network?
And if so, do you think it will come to anything?
Update: https://github.com/qubic/proposal/blob/4c1251a8d8916ac9c3a0e330bdd04dc4925aac9f/GeneralComputorProposals/2025-06-11-strategic-qubic-monero-quorum-decision.md

1. If the fees alone are not able to subsidize miners after multiple decades of a monetary networks existence- doesn't that mean the network lacks a stable use case? I know Bitcoin could run into this problem, but then it might as well die IMO.
2. Why specifically 0.6? Why not 1 or 0.5 ? Or is it just a random number?

I've got a decent amount in BTC and I'm considering moving part of it into Monero, I consider privacy very important but I'm not too much familiar with XMR, where can I swap without KYC?

Hi guys!
Good morning/afternoon/evening!
I wanted to know about RandomX v2, because I've heard many people say that it would be released together with FCMP++, but I haven't seen many people talking about it for sure...
RandomX v2 will be realesed with FCMP++?

This is the weekly Monero market thread. This thread will be posted every Friday and is meant to help accelerate the adoption of Monero. Due to r/moneromarket having only a fraction of the subscribers of r/Monero, we have decided to create this thread to encourage more individuals to use Monero for product exchanges. Until the market matures, we recommend that the Monero community post their products both in this thread and on r/moneromarket (to ensure growth of that subreddit).
Selling items for Monero will boost your (and Monero's) reputation as a legitimate form of exchange of goods. This is necessary for the growth of Monero, our community, and privacy as a whole.
## Instructions
When you post your product or job listing here, please make sure to:
- Give a description of the item.
- Link to a photo of the item (if it's physical).
- Provide logistics information (such as, location and/or shipping availability).
- Optionally, provide an additional (private) form of communication outside of Reddit (e.g. Bitmessage, u/protonmail, u/tutanota, GPG key).
- Post the price in XMR terms.
Spamming will not be tolerated. Please make sure that listings are legitimate and do not break rule 2."
Finally, credits to cdotsubo for starting the concept!

Hi guys!
Good morning/afternoon/evening!
I'd like to introduce you to [Grease](https://github.com/grease-xmr/grease), an L2 for Monero that's currently in development. Anyone who wants to help would do well to do so, it's good to support new community projects (of course, always check, and Grease is open-source).

I'm tired of listening to anti grease propaganda (for those not familiar, grease is an L2 to be presented at monero kon, which people are quite irrationally opposed to).
So I wanted to settle these points once and for all.
Grease-XMR *will not* decrease the hash rate securing the base layer. Monero by design does not rely on transaction fees to incentivize miners.
[https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/384/how-many-transactions-can-fit-in-a-block](https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/384/how-many-transactions-can-fit-in-a-block)
at 30 transactions per block, and a transaction fee of 25 cents per block (the highest transaction fee I've ever heard of) miners will make seven fifty on fees and about two hundred dollars on block rewards.

Monero can handle it's current volume, and a decent amount more. It's not my claim that monero can't scale *any* more, but we have to be realistic about how much scaling it *can* do, and at some point in it's adoption curve it won't be enough. Monero can't scale to Visa size.
"But I don't care about visa sized monero"-- well I do, but I understand some people here don't. Problem is, monero can't even scale to 1/10th of visa. Monero can't even scale to 1/100th of visa. Monero can just barely scale to 1/1000th of visa, and that will put a decent amount of stress on those running nodes.
one FCMP++ transaction is 4kb. Visa handles 65k transactions per second. For monero to scale to visa levels it would be 260 megabytes *per second*, not 40 per two minutes. Thats 31.2 gigabytes per block. Monero's chain would double in size in 2 blocks. If you don't think that's going to cause a *lot* of problems, you're kidding yourself. You'll have blockchain bloat problems, you'll have connection problems, monerod will be killing itself all over the place.
The Monero Devs perform stress test, they all know Monero doesn't scale that big.
[https://github.com/monero-project/monero/issues/9348](https://github.com/monero-project/monero/issues/9348)
>I made some tools to stress test monerod: [https://github.com/Boog900/Monero-stress-test-tools](https://github.com/Boog900/Monero-stress-test-tools)
>My idea was to pob blocks back to when we know txpool was huge and push the transactions from the blocks after that to the nodes pool, doing this at height `3139920` **I was able to get the txpool to around 90 MBs.**
>Then I also created a tool to make and maintain a certain number of "fake" connections to a node, these connections do just enough to stay connected and nothing else. Monerod will still fluff txs to these connections.
>**Using these tools I am able to reliably get a node killed.**
this is just mempool problems, that's not even considering the effect of blockchain bloat.
a simple google search will confirm: [https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/405/how-many-transactions-per-second-can-the-monero-network-handle](https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/405/how-many-transactions-per-second-can-the-monero-network-handle)
>Monero transaction confirmations are very quick on modern computers. With LMDB estimates from developers Smooth and NoodleDoodle are that Monero can handle 1700 TPS (up from 1600 TPS pre LMDB).
>Confirmation time is definitely not the limiting factor. Many nodes do not have the bandwidth to support 1700 TPS based on current transaction sizes.
>Monero can have very large blocks thanks to its adaptive blocksize. However by the time that we reached 1700 TPS memory requirements would also be too much for many nodes.
FCMP++ will increase the transaction size, making more nodes struggle, but even if it didn't, 1700 TPS is just not enough. It's enough for now, but monero will continue to grow.

## **How long does it take for my balance to unlock?**
Your balance is unlocked after 10 confirmations (which means 10 mined blocks). A block is mined approximately every two minutes on the Monero network, so that would be around 20 minutes.
## **How can I prove that I sent a payment?**
The fastest and most direct way is by using the [ExploreMonero](https://www.exploremonero.com/receipt) blockchain explorer. You will need to recover the transaction key from your wallet ([complete guide](https://getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/prove-payment.html) for GUI / CLI).
## **How do I buy Monero (XMR) with Bitcoin (BTC)?**
There are dozens of exchanges that trade Monero against Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Check out the list on [CoinMarketCap](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/monero/#markets) and choose the option that suits you best.
## **How do I buy Monero (XMR) with fiat?**
- [Kraken](https://kraken.com/) (USD and EUR): old-school, decent exchange. They might require your documents for verification and approval of your account.
- LocalMonero (localmonero[dot]co): peer-to-peer exchange. They have pretty much everything as a payment method and they support hundreds of fiat options.
## **How can I quickly exchange my Monero (XMR) for Bitcoin (BTC)?**
There are multiple ways to exchange your Monero for Bitcoin, but first of all, I'd like to remind you that if you really want to do your part for Monero, one of the simplest ways is to **get in touch with your merchant/service provider and request for it to accept Monero directly as payment.** Ask the service provider to visit the [official website](https://getmonero.org/) and our communication channels if he or she needs help with system integration.
That being said, the community has been recommending two services in particular, [ChangeNOW](https://changenow.io/) and [SideShift.AI](https://sideshift.ai/). These services are only recommendations (which change over time) and are operated by entities outside the control of the Monero Project. DYOR and be diligent.
## **How do I mine Monero? And other mining questions.**
The correct place to ask questions and discuss the Monero mining scene is in the dedicated subreddit r/MoneroMining. That being said, you can find a list of pools and available mining software in the [GetMonero.org](https://getmonero.org/get-started/mining/) website.

# 2. Wallet: CLI & GUI
## **Why I can't see my balance? Where is my XMR?**
Before any action there are two things to check:
1. Are you using the latest available version of the wallet? A new version is released roughly every 6 months, so make sure you're using the current release (compare the release on [GetMonero.org](https://getmonero.org/downloads/) with your wallet's version on `Settings`, under `Debug info`).
2. Is your wallet fully synchronized? If it isn't, wait the sync to complete.
Because Monero is different from Bitcoin, wallet synchronization is not instant. The software needs to synchronize the blockchain and use your private keys to identify your transactions. Check in the lower left corner (GUI) if the wallet is synchronized.
**You can't send transactions and your balance might be wrong or unavailable if the wallet is not synced with the network**. So please wait.
If this is not a sufficient answer for your case and you're looking for more information, please see this answer on [StackExchange](https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/6640/i-am-missing-not-seeing-a-transaction-to-in-the-gui-zero-balance).
## **How do I upgrade my wallet to the newest version?**
This question is beautifully answered on [StackExchange](https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/7991/how-do-i-upgrade-my-software-to-the-newest-version).
## **Why does it take so long to sync the wallet [for the first time]?**
You have decided to use Monero's wallet and run a local node. Congratulations! You have chosen the safest and most secure option for your privacy, but unfortunately this has an initial cost. The first reason for the slowness is that you will need to download the entire blockchain, which is considerably heavy (+70 GB) and constantly growing. There are technologies being implemented in Monero to slow this growth, however it is inevitable to make this initial download to run a full node. Consider syncing to a device that has an SSD instead of an HDD, as this greatly impacts the speed of synchronization.
Now that the blockchain is on your computer, the next time you run the wallet you only need to download new blocks, which should take seconds or minutes (depending on how often you use the wallet).
## **I don't want to download the blockchain, how can I skip that?**
The way to skip downloading the blockchain is connecting your wallet to a public remote node. You can follow [this guide](https://getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/remote_node_gui.html) on how to set it up. You can find a list of public remote nodes on [MoneroWorld](https://moneroworld.com/#nodes).
*Be advised that when using a public remote node you lose some of your privacy. A public remote node is able to identify your IP and opens up a range for [certain attacks](https://moneroworld.com/) that further diminish your privacy.* ***A remote node can't see your balance and it can't spend your XMR.***
## **How do I restore my wallet from the mnemonic seed or from the keys?**
To restore your wallet with the 25 word mnemonic seed, please see [this guide](https://getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/restore_account.html).
To restore your wallet with your keys, please see [this guide](https://getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/restore_from_keys.html).

Hello everyone!
The other day I saw a post here about P2Pool as only allowed pool, solving the 51% attack issue coming from malicious pools.
What are the technical roadblocks?
I would like to know your thoughts and opinions, and why this is ok ir not for the network health.
Greetings!

Please stay on topic: this post is only for comments discussing the uncertainties, shortcomings, and concerns some may have about Monero.
**NOT the positive aspects of it.**
Discussion can relate to the technology itself or economics.
Talk about community and price is not wanted, but some discussion about it maybe allowed if it relates well.
Be as respectful and nice as possible. This discussion has potential to be more emotionally charged as it may bring up issues that are extremely upsetting: many people are not only financially but emotionally invested in the ideas and tools around Monero.
It's better to keep it calm then to stir the pot, so don't talk down to people, insult them for spelling/grammar, personal insults, etc. This should only be calm rational discussion about the technical and economic aspects of Monero.
"Do unto others 20% better than you'd expect them to do unto you to correct subjective error." - Linus Pauling
**How it works:**
Post your concerns about Monero in reply to this main post.
If you can address these concerns, or add further details to them - reply to that comment. This will make it easily sortable
Upvote the comments that are the most valid criticisms of it that have few or no real honest solutions/answers to them.
The comment that mentions the biggest problems of Monero should have the most karma.
As a community, as developers, we need to know about them. Even if they make us feel bad, we got to upvote them.

Given the success of the previous MAAMs ([see here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/search?q=maam&sort=new&restrict_sr=on)), let's keep this rolling.
The principle is simple: ask anything you'd like to know about Monero, especially the dumb questions that you've been keeping for you every other days, may the community clarify it all!
Finally, credits to binaryFate for starting the concept!

I know shit about fuck so regarding what allegedly happened with BTC, how does Monero counter it?
Namely "hijacking" by propaganda, a company or its core developers.
It is well known that in r/Bitcoin one does not simply ask a question without a risk of a ban and most "official" channels are also monofaceted in their narratives. Which all together smooths the brains out of the rest of the "community" which lost the single idea that BTC was funded on, critical thinking, or so it seems.
Some have heard of blockstream and their efforts to mould BTC in a good long term business profiting way (allegedly), pushing their own L2 and trying to make BTC itself as impractical to transact with as possible.
Also the core devs... Can easily push their own narratives and hopes basically without limit making BIPs near to useless unless it fits the narrative. Yes you can fork, but nobody will join as it is "too big and too official" and then go with the main flow. Yet they fail to be flexible enough to react to realtime needs in the world of BTC (pseudonymity /privacy issues - see latest debacle from Czech republic with Jirikovsky and Blazek -- dirty bitcoin, expensive transactions and others big or small hiccups BTC still have).
I see Monero as a last beacon of hope for financial freedom as in liberty. I don't think the BTC narrative ever changes but ATM it has the best fighting chance to bring a bit more liberty into the world of finance.
How do we know the same doesn't happen with Monero?

in 2 recent posts I argued we need a monero payment channel network. I still hold with almost everything I said there, payment channels are a must for scalability and utility.
However, I mistakenly claimed that it was "impossible" to close a channel in an erroneous state, cutting out the need for a watch tower like BTC's lightning network needed, and that the most one party could do was attempt to hold monero hostage, which would shortly fail due to key escrow. After re reading the Monet and Aux channel papers, I realized my mistake, as well as u/tromp pointing it out.
Normally I'd let his correction stand on its own, but it was made after most people had already moved on from the discussion, and I don't want people abused with wrong notions I spread.
For a correct understanding of the difference between a channel closure attack on grease vs lightning, see my comment on this post

Lightning is a massive failure; we can probably all agree on that. It doesn't work during high fees, and most people use custodial wallets — they might as well be holding their coins in PayPal.
Up until now, I was always of the opinion that Monero is designed to scale and **simply doesn't need a Layer 2**. Multiple posts "shilling" Grease this week had the effect of making me even more wary.
I still believe that Monero is designed to scale and that a **Layer 2 isn't a necessity for Monero**’s future success.
**However**: After seeing a short demonstration of Grease in action, I can see why there might actually be some merit to the whole thing.
A Layer 2 won't replace normal Monero payments, but it could most likely improve UX in some ***specific*** use cases.
Since Monero's fees are so low, opening and closing channels can be done on a whim — and the main benefit is saving time (compared to Bitcoin, where people attempt to use LN to save on the crazy-high mainnet fees).
This lends itself particularly well to some ***specific*** circumstances, while not cannibalizing regular transactions too much.
Off the top of my head:
* Imagine you are at Monerokon in Prague this weekend. Instead of preparing your wallet by splitting outputs to pay for your beer, your first payment opens a Grease channel with the bar. Now you can keep buying more rounds with truly instant "confirmation," instead of relying purely on zero-conf payments (which are decently safe but still take 5–20 seconds to show up due to Dandelion++).
* If you are a degenerate gambler, you can open a channel with the gambling site. Now you don't have to worry about depositing or withdrawing balances from the site’s internal wallet. You can simply open a channel with the site and keep gambling with instant response times — instead of trusting the site not to run off with your deposits.
For less regular payments, you'd still just use normal mainnet transactions, but there are definitely some specific scenarios where Grease, well, makes things just go smoother.
We just need to be careful that people are aware of the limitations and don't fall into the same "put everything on L2!" trap BTC and ETH have fallen into.
A Monero Layer 2 should not primarily exist to "reduce load on mainnet" — we **want** load on mainnet for a larger privacy set, and **Monero is designed to handle it**.
"Blockchains simply can't scale on L1" is a lie pushed by the people who captured Bitcoin.
Instead, a Monero Layer 2 should mainly exist to make the user experience in some very specific scenarios a lot smoother.
Well, these are my thoughts on the matter. Learn more about Grease at Monerokon!

I was thinking recently that crypto will struggle to reach true mass adoption until we can use it to buy everyday essentials like food, rent, heating, etc.
The main roadblock? Merchants are still hesitant to accept crypto directly. While services like Revolut let you pay in crypto and auto-convert to fiat, they still require the buyer to have a bank account.
So here's an idea: what if there was a middleman service that let you use crypto to buy anything online, without needing a bank account?
At its most basic level, the flow could look like this:
- You submit the item you want to buy (e.g., an Amazon link) and your delivery address.
- You pay in Monero (or other crypto).
- The service places the order for you using fiat.
This way, crypto holders could shop online without needing any connection to the traditional banking system.
Of course, there are major trust issues—especially in the beginning when orders are fulfilled manually. But let’s assume, for the sake of discussion, that the trust model gets worked out (via reputation systems, escrow, open-source code, etc.).
The long-term vision is a fully automated site, but it could start as a manual operation with a simple fee (e.g., $1 plus fiat conversion fees).
So I'm curious:
- Do you know of any existing services doing this?
- Would you personally use such a service—if it were trustworthy and fees were low?
- What, if any, are the risks you see?
Appreciate any thoughts or feedback!

I don't think this has ever happened with previous versions, but Windows 11's anti-virus sees Feather Wallet v2.8.1 as a virus and quarantines it. I ran it through Virus Total, and 20 out of 71 checkers flagged it. I expect they're all false positives but this could scare off a lot of potential users.

Hey folks,
I’ve been running GrapheneOS on my Pixel for a while now — fully degoogled, hardened with RethinkDNS + NetGuard, and set up for private crypto use (Monero, Cake Wallet, etc.).
I know flashing ROMs and configuring everything for privacy can be overwhelming at first, so I’m offering to help others get set up safely and cleanly.
🔐 What I offer:
* GrapheneOS install (WebUSB method)
* NetGuard firewall config + DNS lockdown (RethinkDNS)
* Secure wallet installs (Monero GUI, Cake, Samourai)
* Minimal apps, sandboxing tips, and de-bloating
* Optional walkthrough or done-for-you setup
🧠 No tracking. No sales pitch. Just honest help from someone who does this daily.
💬 Message me if you’re interested. First 3 people get it free (or pay what you feel it’s worth).
Let’s take back control of our phones.
—Oscar

Reports are useful for volunteer mods to be efficient and reacting to events.
Stop reporting of low efforts posts you don't agree with. If your first report has been ignored it means that we evaluated it was good. Spamming it is just being annoying.
To the very few who do that, stop acting like kids.
That's all, stay hydrated.
Also there is an anon that made an unofficial twitter account for the monero research lab: [https://x.com/MoneroResearchL/](https://x.com/MoneroResearchL/)
Don't hesitate to follow it for accurate news of meetings and some FCMP advancements.

**[See more about Clove in MoneroKon in 06/21/2025](https://cfp.twed.org/mk5/talk/AE7CWF/)**
I've been reading about Clover and Dandelion++, two techniques aimed at improving privacy on the network layer *specifically*, hiding the origin IP of a transaction in systems like Monero.
Here’s a quick comparison and breakdown:
**🌼 [Dandelion++](https://resilience365.com/dandelion-for-monero/)**
How it works:
* Uses a two-phase propagation system:
* Stem phase: The transaction is passed through a few nodes in a linear, random path.
* Fluff phase: It’s then broadcast normally (flooded).
Privacy benefits:
* Helps hide the source IP by making it harder for attackers to pinpoint the origin based on initial propagation.
* Works well against local or partial adversaries (those controlling a few nodes or monitoring part of the network).
* Already implemented in Monero.
Limitations:
* Vulnerable to global adversaries (e.g., an attacker that can monitor large parts of the internet).
* Susceptible to timing analysis and some advanced correlation attacks.
**🍀 [Clover](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2109.00376)**
How it works:
* Proposes a more advanced, probabilistic routing system.
* Introduces random delays, mixing, and adaptive path selection using buffers and stochastic rules.
* Makes the traffic pattern statistically indistinguishable from honest noise.
* Less complex to implement.
Privacy benefits:
* Much stronger protection against global passive adversaries.
* Higher entropy in transaction routing paths.
Limitations:
* Likely introduces higher latency due to delays and buffering.
* Not yet implemented in Monero, still a research prototype (see more in MoneroKon).
Conclusion:
Dandelion++ is a practical and effective step forward for Monero’s network privacy, but Clover shows promise for the future, especially if we want to defend more against Chain Analysis tools (like spy nodes).

This is the weekly Monero market thread. This thread will be posted every Friday and is meant to help accelerate the adoption of Monero. Due to r/moneromarket having only a fraction of the subscribers of r/Monero, we have decided to create this thread to encourage more individuals to use Monero for product exchanges. Until the market matures, we recommend that the Monero community post their products both in this thread and on r/moneromarket (to ensure growth of that subreddit).
Selling items for Monero will boost your (and Monero's) reputation as a legitimate form of exchange of goods. This is necessary for the growth of Monero, our community, and privacy as a whole.
## Instructions
When you post your product or job listing here, please make sure to:
- Give a description of the item.
- Link to a photo of the item (if it's physical).
- Provide logistics information (such as, location and/or shipping availability).
- Optionally, provide an additional (private) form of communication outside of Reddit (e.g. Bitmessage, u/protonmail, u/tutanota, GPG key).
- Post the price in XMR terms.
Spamming will not be tolerated. Please make sure that listings are legitimate and do not break rule 2."
Finally, credits to cdotsubo for starting the concept!

So for the past 2 days I have tried everything I can to run it on my Pi 4, but no luck. It runs fine no errors at all but I can't connect to it. I followed Mental Outlaws video and [This](https://youtu.be/69HYv21ctKU)
I even tried to do all the steps on my main PC and connect my GUI wallet to it (to see if there's a port forwarding issue on router) but still no luck. I am going crazy, there's no errors at all. I don't understand the issue.
I have tried two ways of doing this, a Stealth mode and an open mode.
This is the Stealth mode [bitmonero.conf](https://pastebin.com/RVWYE5sK) I placed that in my .bitmonero folder along with the blockchain data and added a RPC user/pass (only thing I changed), then I edited /etc/tor/torrc and added
HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/monero-rpc/
HiddenServicePort 18089 [127.0.0.1:18089](http://127.0.0.1:18089)
I got the onion URL from /var/lib/tor/monero-rpc/hostname and I added it to my GUI then added the port 18089 along with the user/pass.
Tor is running fine, monerod is running and synced, I added 18080/18081/18089 to ufw.
Main PC OS is Arch, PI 4 is running the latest PI OS
I used a ledger to make my wallet using MoneroGUI on my main PC and for my phone I'm using CakeWallet.

## **How long does it take for my balance to unlock?**
Your balance is unlocked after 10 confirmations (which means 10 mined blocks). A block is mined approximately every two minutes on the Monero network, so that would be around 20 minutes.
## **How can I prove that I sent a payment?**
The fastest and most direct way is by using the [ExploreMonero](https://www.exploremonero.com/receipt) blockchain explorer. You will need to recover the transaction key from your wallet ([complete guide](https://getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/prove-payment.html) for GUI / CLI).
## **How do I buy Monero (XMR) with Bitcoin (BTC)?**
There are dozens of exchanges that trade Monero against Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Check out the list on [CoinMarketCap](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/monero/#markets) and choose the option that suits you best.
## **How do I buy Monero (XMR) with fiat?**
- [Kraken](https://kraken.com/) (USD and EUR): old-school, decent exchange. They might require your documents for verification and approval of your account.
- LocalMonero (localmonero[dot]co): peer-to-peer exchange. They have pretty much everything as a payment method and they support hundreds of fiat options.
## **How can I quickly exchange my Monero (XMR) for Bitcoin (BTC)?**
There are multiple ways to exchange your Monero for Bitcoin, but first of all, I'd like to remind you that if you really want to do your part for Monero, one of the simplest ways is to **get in touch with your merchant/service provider and request for it to accept Monero directly as payment.** Ask the service provider to visit the [official website](https://getmonero.org/) and our communication channels if he or she needs help with system integration.
That being said, the community has been recommending two services in particular, [ChangeNOW](https://changenow.io/) and [SideShift.AI](https://sideshift.ai/). These services are only recommendations (which change over time) and are operated by entities outside the control of the Monero Project. DYOR and be diligent.
## **How do I mine Monero? And other mining questions.**
The correct place to ask questions and discuss the Monero mining scene is in the dedicated subreddit r/MoneroMining. That being said, you can find a list of pools and available mining software in the [GetMonero.org](https://getmonero.org/get-started/mining/) website.

# 2. Wallet: CLI & GUI
## **Why I can't see my balance? Where is my XMR?**
Before any action there are two things to check:
1. Are you using the latest available version of the wallet? A new version is released roughly every 6 months, so make sure you're using the current release (compare the release on [GetMonero.org](https://getmonero.org/downloads/) with your wallet's version on `Settings`, under `Debug info`).
2. Is your wallet fully synchronized? If it isn't, wait the sync to complete.
Because Monero is different from Bitcoin, wallet synchronization is not instant. The software needs to synchronize the blockchain and use your private keys to identify your transactions. Check in the lower left corner (GUI) if the wallet is synchronized.
**You can't send transactions and your balance might be wrong or unavailable if the wallet is not synced with the network**. So please wait.
If this is not a sufficient answer for your case and you're looking for more information, please see this answer on [StackExchange](https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/6640/i-am-missing-not-seeing-a-transaction-to-in-the-gui-zero-balance).
## **How do I upgrade my wallet to the newest version?**
This question is beautifully answered on [StackExchange](https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/7991/how-do-i-upgrade-my-software-to-the-newest-version).
## **Why does it take so long to sync the wallet [for the first time]?**
You have decided to use Monero's wallet and run a local node. Congratulations! You have chosen the safest and most secure option for your privacy, but unfortunately this has an initial cost. The first reason for the slowness is that you will need to download the entire blockchain, which is considerably heavy (+70 GB) and constantly growing. There are technologies being implemented in Monero to slow this growth, however it is inevitable to make this initial download to run a full node. Consider syncing to a device that has an SSD instead of an HDD, as this greatly impacts the speed of synchronization.
Now that the blockchain is on your computer, the next time you run the wallet you only need to download new blocks, which should take seconds or minutes (depending on how often you use the wallet).
## **I don't want to download the blockchain, how can I skip that?**
The way to skip downloading the blockchain is connecting your wallet to a public remote node. You can follow [this guide](https://getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/remote_node_gui.html) on how to set it up. You can find a list of public remote nodes on [MoneroWorld](https://moneroworld.com/#nodes).
*Be advised that when using a public remote node you lose some of your privacy. A public remote node is able to identify your IP and opens up a range for [certain attacks](https://moneroworld.com/) that further diminish your privacy.* ***A remote node can't see your balance and it can't spend your XMR.***
## **How do I restore my wallet from the mnemonic seed or from the keys?**
To restore your wallet with the 25 word mnemonic seed, please see [this guide](https://getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/restore_account.html).
To restore your wallet with your keys, please see [this guide](https://getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/restore_from_keys.html).

# 5. Nodes
## **How can my local node become a public remote node?**
If you want to support other Monero users by making your node public, you can [follow the instructions on MoneroWorld](https://moneroworld.com/#contribute), under the section *"How To Include Your Node On Moneroworld"*.
## **How can I connect my node via Tor?**

Hi guys, how are you? Maybe you've already seen me around here, but I'll introduce myself anyway, I'm a computer engineering student who is behind schedule (I have 2 exams left) and I've been working as a GIS software developer for 3 years. I have a great passion for mathematics and programming and I've found in Monero a safe place to not think about everyday problems. In the last period I've dedicated myself to the development of a python library that uses pybind11 to expose methods and classes of the monero-cpp library, thus allowing python developers to interact with daemons and wallets using a simple and robust API. This library is not limited to being a simple rpc client, but provides a MoneroWalletFull (as well as other utilities), which acts as a full wrapper of wallet2.cpp, making it easy to manage and create wallets locally without having to configure an rpc wallet. I opened a bounty for this project a few months ago, and it collected about 3.42 XMR which I am very grateful for, but to make a first stable release and reach a certain level of test coverage I am looking for a little more support. My work in the last months has focused, in addition to the bindings, on the cpp implementation of the MoneroDaemonRpc, the MoneroWalletRpc and the entire related data model, as they are not offered by the monero-cpp library. I wanted to implement them to give a complete monero library to python developers, which could replace custom implementations or other python libraries for monero, and I think it is coming out a nice library, it is really complete, on par with monero-java and monero-ts. What I am missing is to finish implementing the tests, apply bug fixing and build the packages for windows and macos (linux packages already present). I hope my work is worthy of your attention, and if you can't donate, please try, test, report any problems or put a star in the repository, it gives me a lot of enthusiasm and desire to continue.
I send you a warm greeting.

Please stay on topic: this post is only for comments discussing the uncertainties, shortcomings, and concerns some may have about Monero.
**NOT the positive aspects of it.**
Discussion can relate to the technology itself or economics.
Talk about community and price is not wanted, but some discussion about it maybe allowed if it relates well.
Be as respectful and nice as possible. This discussion has potential to be more emotionally charged as it may bring up issues that are extremely upsetting: many people are not only financially but emotionally invested in the ideas and tools around Monero.
It's better to keep it calm then to stir the pot, so don't talk down to people, insult them for spelling/grammar, personal insults, etc. This should only be calm rational discussion about the technical and economic aspects of Monero.
"Do unto others 20% better than you'd expect them to do unto you to correct subjective error." - Linus Pauling
**How it works:**
Post your concerns about Monero in reply to this main post.
If you can address these concerns, or add further details to them - reply to that comment. This will make it easily sortable
Upvote the comments that are the most valid criticisms of it that have few or no real honest solutions/answers to them.
The comment that mentions the biggest problems of Monero should have the most karma.
As a community, as developers, we need to know about them. Even if they make us feel bad, we got to upvote them.

Printed some A4 double-sided Monero brochures (Arabic & English) + “Monero Accepted Here” signs 🧡
I’ll be sharing them with friends who run local businesses — hoping to onboard new $XMR merchants!
Big thanks to @FiatDemise for the print-ready files 🙏
I'm also Raising 2.3 XMR on kuno.anne.media — 20% will go to printing more Monero brochures & “Accepted Here” stickers and help to promote Monero . Support if you can! 🧡

Given the success of the previous MAAMs ([see here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/search?q=maam&sort=new&restrict_sr=on)), let's keep this rolling.
The principle is simple: ask anything you'd like to know about Monero, especially the dumb questions that you've been keeping for you every other days, may the community clarify it all!
Finally, credits to binaryFate for starting the concept!

For Monero users who value privacy, CeFi isn't ideal, but curious on yield options. UEX.US claims 3.5% interest on XMR and crypto loans. KYC's there, so not full privacy—but if you want passive yield, is it worth it? Anyone tried it?

If you're building on Solana, Backpack Wallet is hands-down the most developer-friendly option out there. It’s the only Solana wallet that supports **Devnet**, **Localnet**, and **custom RPCs** perfect for testing and development.
Just turn on **Developer Mode** in the app settings and you're good to go. Makes life way easier if you're deploying or debugging smart contracts.
Great for devs, projects, and power users alike.

Hi guys!
Good morning/afternoon/evening!
As you may know, Monero uses Dandelion++ as a way of protecting the IP of users on the blockchain, but many people don't know that keeping port 18080 is detrimental to its protection. In order for Dandelion++ to work at its best (in addition to running its own node) it is necessary to open port 18080, so you will be increasing anonymity at the network level not only for you, but also for all Monero users.
Here's how to do it:

Thanks for your attention ;)

XmrBazaar was developed behind the scenes for well over a year and then launched a year ago. It has since gained about 3000 users! Not just accounts but active users. Over 6000 listings have been posted and 1.6k orders. And we don’t even know how many orders have taken place outside the platform once users have met each other.
We did not do a CCS or a kuno to raise funds beforehand. Rather, I took the risk and funded it all upfront. I have spent at least 60xmr so far. I wanted us to prove ourselves before asking the community for any assistance. I did not want us to over promise and under deliver. We have now absolutely delivered!
All payments made for building the platform were made with Monero of course. Design , development, admin, maintenance, hosting etc. From contributors around the world. Most notably Anarkio the anon dev and Aillia the anon admin. They are both living Monero legends — Humble , hardworking, intelligent, and talented cypherpunks who are in it for the positive disruption that will inevitably come from building out a global Monero circular economy.
And now we are seeking donations to bring us to breakeven so from here on out we can continue to build and become self-sustaining as we add revenue generating features. Lost of new features have recently launched like Boosts, Bonds, Exchange Listings, and the Monero Near Me map layer. And many more coming soon! XmrBazaar will be the trust and reputation platform for the clearnet Monero Circular Economy! Think EBay, Amazon, Airbnb, UpWork, Shopify like features and services, but peer to peer.
XmrBazaar will alway be free to create accounts and publish listings. And no platform fees ever on direct purchases made with Monero. We will always design towards being the most accessible, frictionless, and most used platform for living off of digital cash peer to peer. Achieving the network effect of having the world’s digital cash users all living off of each other with legal goods and services is the vision.
If you want to help us take this to the next level, please consider donating directly to the fundraiser Monero address. The more we can grow XmrBazaar, the more utility and value Monero will gain. Please donate here:
42DxmL7sdVzHU6fEocXioT1ZPf3n1CThA1HEbPVofKgC6GGG1oPYXXg6mbwMuZE4w3PkBF3UAWjhfMbMpu82dfmFJqGpsCb
or if you are an XmrBazaar user login and donate at XmrBazaar.com/fundraiser to obtain a profile Donation Badge — to show your support and to add more trust and reputation status to your profile.
XmrBazaar will continue to improve daily, but ultimately its success depends on the “opt-out” community using it! This is how Monero wins! This is how we maximize the potential of crypto. By living off of each other, on a global scale, with untraceable digital cash, and XmrBazaar intends on being the peer to peer platform we can all use to achieve this!!
💪💪🚀

Don't shoot me. I know this has been covered before but the last post on it I found was about 2 years ago. I would like to know the current status or opinion of people.
Monero with its privacy features makes it one of the very few, if not only, true cash replacements, and makes it a **legitimate** currency. Currency must be totally private, no one needs to know what you sent or who you sent it to other than who received it, and you sure as heck do not need your account balance to be seen by any degenerate in or outside of government - all of these fundamental things Bitcoin and most other crypto **fail**.
If we are going to succeed at not being slaves to bankers and their retards in government, then we all need Monero. However, here's the case scenario:
If some Mom is at the farmer's market and buys a coffee, then realizes she also wants a croissant with it 20 seconds later after paying for the coffee, she should be able to do that with an actual currency. Somehow the Monero design has baked this locking feature in (I know...for very smart privacy reasons), but it \*breaks\* its value as a currency. In Canada we have Interac, which lets you debit directly from your bank account as many times as you want with no wait period. Yes, I know...completely different systems, but the point is that this is the convenience which a currency must provide. It is fine if the spent funds require confirmation taking 20 minutes, but your own $10,000 balance cannot be locked like this just because you bought a $2 coffee. Additionally, if you're a merchant, your account is basically always locked if you're accepting payments continuously; you need to switch merchant accounts so that your income can be sent elsewhere (pay bills, customer refunds, etc.).
The privacy makes it an actual currency, unlike Bitcoin. The 20 minute lock BREAKS its use as a currency, don't you think? I mean obviously very smart people have been developing this and I suppose the answer is that if you want privacy then you have to have 20-minute lock periods after paying for anything. Is there really no other solution than splitting your $10,000 between 20 different addresses if you want to shop at 20 different stalls at the farmer's market?

Hi all,
3 years ago, we added support for a Monero wallet that doesn’t download the blockchain and doesn’t connect to a remote node for scanning.
Our wallet [https://coin.space/](https://coin.space/) doesn’t sync, doesn’t share any private keys, and only uses a remote node to broadcast outgoing transactions. Incoming transactions are accepted manually - just enter the transaction hash and tap "accept".
We still believe this is one of the best solutions for most Monero users.
**Question:** Are we still the only ones doing it this way?

>Dialect Universal Inbox, Ackee School of Solana Season 7, MagicBlock Magicnet, Helius LaserStream, DePitch Academy, Chainlink Build on Solana
https://preview.redd.it/n36oaikx1c9f1.png?width=960&format=png&auto=webp&s=8cab2a97830011e15a1a5d65aff03207026bd698
The Breakout Hackathon judges have been busy digging into a mountain of project submissions. They’re wrapping up their scoring, results are being compiled, and the winners will be announced very soon.
Whether or not your project makes the list, you still gained experience and shipped something real, and that's something worth celebrating! 🥳
**Here's what's featured in this week's issue:**
* Dialect launches Universal Inbox
* Ackee announces School of Solana Season 7
* MagicBlock has moved from private testing to Magicnet
* Helius releases LaserStream
* DePitch offers a pitch academy and coaching service
* Chainlink Labs and the Solana Foundation Build on Solana program
# 💬 Dialect Universal Inbox
Dialect has expanded its Alerts Stack with Universal Inbox, a shared feed that collects notifications from any Solana application a user opts into.
https://preview.redd.it/je1b2gty1c9f1.png?width=1000&format=png&auto=webp&s=ebc25a307372c78012a8031b2af88fcbee798cb4
The first production integration is Jupiter Radar inside the Jupiter Mobile wallet. This initial release surfaces token transfers, trigger-order fills, recurring purchases, liquidation warnings and DAO votes for Jupiter users, and it supports announcements from eight partner dApps: Meteora, Raydium, Lulo, Jito, Marinade, Sanctum, DRiP Haus and Bonk.
Key benefits include a single timeline that follows the wallet across apps, mobile push delivery through Dialect’s Firebase pipeline and user-level controls over which projects and topics can raise an alert.
Dialect exposes a REST and TypeScript-SDK interface that sits behind the Universal Inbox and Alerts Stack.
The API is organized around three functional areas:
1. Message delivery
2. Notification history
3. User subscriptions.
At launch, a dApp that wants its messages to appear in Universal Inbox must register the project with Dialect and coordinate listing directly through Dialect’s team. Broader access is planned once early partners are live.

# 🏫 Ackee School of Solana
Ackee Blockchain Security has opened applications for the seventh cohort of the School of Solana, a free nine-week, online program.
https://preview.redd.it/rjeozv402c9f1.png?width=1000&format=png&auto=webp&s=3bf814aa4ba5b6fc3e516c870281ec1f60b3a29f
The curriculum adopts a security-first approach, guiding students from Rust basics through on-chain programming with Anchor and into professional auditing practice.
**Lecture outline**
* **Introduction to Solana and Blockchain**: Proof of History, Sealevel and local development setup.
* **Introduction to Rust**: Core Rust concepts, ties to Solana development and an overview of Anchor.
* **Solana programming model I**: Building on-chain programs with Anchor, account structure and data storage.
* **Solana programming model II**: PDAs, cross-program invocations and error handling.
* **Best development practices and debugging**: Professional workflows, tips for diagnosing on-chain issues.
* **Front-end for Solana Programs**: Creating a simple front end using the official Solana scaffold.
* **Solana Security:** Common vulnerabilities, exploitation patterns and preventative techniques.
Participants learn at their own pace but meet weekly milestones resulting in a fully functional Solana program. Graduates receive an on-chain NFT certificate and gain access to a network of auditors, protocol teams, and security partners.
Applications remain open until the course start date, with selection handled by Ackee’s team. Interested developers complete a short form to apply.
*I took part in the Ackee Blockchain Winter School of Solana in 2023, an earlier version of this program, and I highly recommend it for beginner/intermediate developers or developers that are new to Solana.*

# 🧙♀️ Magicnet
MagicBlock has moved from private testing to general availability with Phase 2 of its roadmap.
Magicnet lets any Solana developer integrate Ephemeral Rollups without prior approval, delivering sub-50 ms global latency while keeping full composability with Solana state.
Roadmap overview:
* **Phase 1: Whitelist access**: MagicBlock operated all infrastructure, refining on-demand runtimes and providing stable sub-50 ms performance for early adopters.
* **Phase 2: Magicnet**: Self-serve integration is live. Third-party node operators are joining and a restaking mechanism via Jito is slated for this phase.
* **Phase 3: Fully permissionless**: Future milestone that will open validator onboarding, fraud-proof enforcement, staking and slashing to the community, completing the decentralisation of the network.
Developers can embed Ephemeral Rollups to handle latency-sensitive logic in gaming, DeFi and social applications without fragmenting liquidity or spinning up separate chains.
The change from a centrally run service to a distributed set-up marks the first step toward a real-time execution layer governed by the wider Solana ecosystem.
[**Introducing Magicnet**](https://www.magicblock.xyz/blog/introducing-magicnet?ref=blog.colosseum.com)
# 🌌 Helius LaserStream
Helius has released LaserStream, a low-latency, fault-tolerant stream of Solana blocks, transactions and account updates delivered over gRPC.
The service taps directly into the leader’s shredstream, so data can arrive a few hundred milliseconds before it is visible through ordinary RPC nodes.
What makes LaserStream different:
* **Historical replay**: Start from any slot within the last \~3k slots if your connection drops.
* **Multi-node redundancy:** The stream aggregates several node clusters and transparently fails over.
* **Regional endpoints**: Seven mainnet locations (New York, Pittsburgh, Salt Lake City, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Tokyo, Singapore) plus a devnet endpoint in New York.
* **Scalable filtering**: Subscribe to up to 250k accounts per connection and maintain as many as 100 concurrent connections.
These features are made for latency-sensitive apps like market makers, real-time risk monitors, or onchain games that react to every slot.
LaserStream is available only to Professional plan subscribers and currently supports gRPC. WebSocket support is under active development.

DePitch positions itself as an academy and coaching service that helps Solana teams convert technical progress into compelling three-minute pitches for hackathons, grants, and investor meetings.

The program offers two tracks:
1. DePitch Academy: A self-paced, six-module course that breaks down slide design, narrative structure and delivery techniques with Solana-specific examples.
2. 1-to-1 coaching: Three live sessions that refine an existing deck and rehearsal flow. Alumni have claimed nine Colosseum Hackathon prizes.
Lead coach Sofian, a former founder who has mentored more than 500 start-ups since 2013, guides both tracks.
The self-paced DePitch Academy distills Sofian’s framework into six concise modules. It opens with Pitching 101, which positions pitching as a growth tool and teaches audience empathy and outcome-driven calls to action.
Subsequent modules cover deck structure and design, the anatomy of winning pitches, storytelling techniques for technical projects, a repeatable pitch-building methodology that incorporates demos, and final advice on managing Q&A and rehearsing effectively.
Each video lesson is anchored by Solana-specific examples and practical templates that teams can apply immediately to their own decks.
The 1-to-1 coaching track is delivered in three fast-paced sessions that take a raw three-minute pitch from draft to stage-ready.
* **Session 1 - Crash Test**: Simulates live conditions to expose gaps in structure, evidence and visual clarity.
* **Session 2 - Revamp**: Reviews the rebuilt deck, locks the final outline and sharpens hooks, transitions and supporting metrics.
* **Session 3- Rehearse**: Focuses on spoken delivery, polishing wording, pacing and body language, so the team leaves with a confident, streamlined presentation.
Both tracks aim to give builders a repeatable framework so that preparation does not slip to the final hours and opportunities are not lost at the finish line.
Founders can also join the [DePitch in Public](https://x.com/i/communities/1934219502465773924?ref=blog.colosseum.com) X community to share their pitches for feedback (aka Roasts) from other founders.

# 🔗 Chainlink Build on Solana
Build on Solana is a joint program from Chainlink Labs and the Solana Foundation that gives teams structured help to launch and scale on Solana while adopting Chainlink services such as CCIP, Data Feeds and Automation.
Applications are open for the next three months and at least three high-potential projects will be chosen and enrolled in a year-long track that combines expert mentorship with ecosystem incentives.
Selected teams receive:
* Direct guidance from Chainlink solution architects and Solana Foundation engineers, plus early access to alpha and beta product releases.
* Joint go-to-market support, including featured placements in Chainlink and Solana channels and event showcases.
* Community-growth incentives that make their own tokens claimable by LINK stakers, creating cross-ecosystem reach.
The program welcomes both early-stage and established builders in DeFi, consumer, infrastructure and emerging sectors who plan deep, long-term integrations with Solana and Chainlink.
Participation is fully remote and continues after graduation through an alumni network and ongoing product access.

Fiat currency is tied to industrialised shelter. The modern home, a highly commodified version of shelter, is the lynchpin of it all. The highest or most fundamental purpose of shelter is to provide good deep sleep. The high level human pursuit of “ecstatic spirit flight” (becoming one with all parts of self, one’s surroundings and the universe) rooted in deep states of relaxation, is most common amongst tribal village inhabitants and hermit mystics who share in common simple cosy shelter -debt free bill free toxin free and untethered to the industrial hamster wheel.
I’ve handsculoted a simple cozy backyard earthen sleeping pod — mostly out of earth- aligned with the generosity of traditional indigenous shelter and the freedom of the hermit sage, and also developed a festive child friendly process for its creation and so you could say it was largely danced into existence.
Ive also created a manual with unique considerations to help guide others do the sane, and want to sell and or trade my skills with someone from the cryoto community who is interested to learn more about such freedom, and who can help me share my ideas (within the cryoto community) and enable others to enjoy sleep and rest that is untethered from fiat current..
The manual guides you through building a small-scale model, using the same ingredients, recipes, and methods for building in life size — including the how and why of traditional festive earthen masonry. This is how I got started and it was life changing. I can provide a virtual or in person tour for inspiration and guidance through the manual and have placed a value on this.
The goal of sleeping in a cosy earthen sleeping pod is very achievable and it gives you the freedom and cosiness of camping with the security of a rock solid house - a good nights sleep untethered to the fiat hamster wheel.
I’m certain my work is aligned with cryoto sovereignty and am intrigued by the idea of a community token system that enables others to use the blockchain to learn to build and sculpt a cosy earthen sleeping pod but first I just want to start a conversation and this is where you come in.
My pod is in Stanwell Park, one hour south of Sydney Australia and I am looking for advice on how to find an ally to assist me so I can continue developing my manual and teaching system.
I have a Cake Wallet with a little Monero and am interested to earn more through my work.
I would appreciate hearing from anyone to discuss this, including telling me why this won’t work.

Just wrapped a one-week sprint running performance ads for a Solana product, **Lingo** (think sweepstakes + airdrops). Wanted to share what worked and what didn’t.
**🔧 The Setup:**
We kept the funnel lean:
* 3 landing pages, each with a different lead magnet (spin wheel, trivia, airdrop)
* 6 ad copy variations (headline + body)
* Fresh creatives & Meta event setup
* Mild “WWIII is coming” vibes (oddly effective)
**📈 What Actually Worked:**
* **Familiar > Flashy** “Smash the asteroid” was cool in theory. In practice? Flopped. Classic *spin the wheel* crushed — people click what they recognize.
* **Message Match = +10%** Ad promise = headline on the page. That alone gave us a lift. No fancy CRO tricks needed.
* **One Goal Only** We focused purely on email capture. No upsells, no surveys. Just: “Get your prize → drop your email.” It worked.
**📌 Takeaways:**
* Simple funnels convert best
* Match ad + landing copy
* Don’t reinvent the wheel — unless it spins 🔁
Curious to hear what’s working for others. What’s your go-to lead magnet right now?
(If you're building on Solana too — let’s connect.)

Hello! I am looking for suggestions for a good cold wallet with xmr support. I have questions if the trezor supports xmr the lastest or older versions. Ive seen youtube videos about generating a wallet with the xmr gui or others like cake wallet but don't understand where the seed phrase is being stored. If you can reccomend me a good cold wallet would be lovely! Requirements open source!

So, I was going through the OpenBook ecosystem(was using dropcopy.io), but by the looks of it no more new trades are being placed on Openbook?
I haven't seen any official announcement of openbook being closed but
the accounts seem to have gone inactive?

This is the weekly Monero market thread. This thread will be posted every Friday and is meant to help accelerate the adoption of Monero. Due to r/moneromarket having only a fraction of the subscribers of r/Monero, we have decided to create this thread to encourage more individuals to use Monero for product exchanges. Until the market matures, we recommend that the Monero community post their products both in this thread and on r/moneromarket (to ensure growth of that subreddit).
Selling items for Monero will boost your (and Monero's) reputation as a legitimate form of exchange of goods. This is necessary for the growth of Monero, our community, and privacy as a whole.
## Instructions
When you post your product or job listing here, please make sure to:
- Give a description of the item.
- Link to a photo of the item (if it's physical).
- Provide logistics information (such as, location and/or shipping availability).
- Optionally, provide an additional (private) form of communication outside of Reddit (e.g. Bitmessage, u/protonmail, u/tutanota, GPG key).
- Post the price in XMR terms.
Spamming will not be tolerated. Please make sure that listings are legitimate and do not break rule 2."
Finally, credits to cdotsubo for starting the concept!

Fellow Monero enthusiasts, I wanted to share a tool my colleagues and I have been developing to address critical operational security gaps in cryptocurrency cold storage. As a security engineer who's spent years working in highly sensitive environments, I've seen too many cases where single points of failure compromise otherwise solid security architectures.
**The Technical Problem:** Most cold storage implementations create SPOF vulnerabilities - whether it's a single hardware wallet, one encrypted file, or even distributed backups controlled by the same individual. Traditional m-of-n multisig helps with operational security but doesn't address seed/key backup scenarios where you need mathematical guarantees about information leakage.
**Fractum's Cryptographic Approach:** We've built an open-source tool implementing Shamir's Secret Sharing over GF(2\^8) combined with AES-256-GCM authenticated encryption. The implementation provides information-theoretic security guarantees - possessing k-1 shares reveals zero bits of information about the original secret (your Monero seed/keys).
→ GitHub: [https://github.com/katvio/fractum](https://github.com/katvio/fractum)
→ Security architecture: [https://fractum.katvio.com/security-architecture/](https://fractum.katvio.com/security-architecture/)
**Technical Architecture:**
* **Key splitting**: 25-word mnemonics or raw private keys split using polynomial interpolation
* **Authenticated encryption**: AES-256-GCM with unique nonces and integrity verification (quantum resistant)
* **Finite field arithmetic**: Operations in GF(256) for efficient byte-level processing
* **Memory protection**: Secure deletion patterns to prevent swap exposure
* **Air-gapped operation**: Complete network isolation via Docker `--network=none`
**Operational Security Benefits for Monero:**
* **Coercion resistance**: Geographically distributed shares require multi-location compromise
* **Disaster recovery**: Fire/theft/hardware failure doesn't compromise entire key material
* **Inheritance planning**: Family members can coordinate recovery without individual compromise
* **Threshold flexibility**: Configure security vs availability trade-offs (e.g., 3-of-5, 5-of-8)
**Implementation Details:**
bash
# Example: Split wallet seed across 5 shares, requiring any 3 for recovery
docker run --rm -it --network=none \
-v "$(pwd)/data:/data" -v "$(pwd)/shares:/app/shares" \
fractum-secure encrypt /data/wallet-seed.txt \
--threshold 3 --shares 5 --label "xmr-cold-storage"
**Security Properties:**
* Information-theoretic security (not just computational)
* FIPS 140-2 compatible primitives
* Integrity protection via GCM authentication + SHA-256 checksums
* Self-contained shares with embedded recovery tools
* Reproducible builds with cryptographic verification
**Use Cases:**
* Primary wallet seed distribution across jurisdictions
* View key sharing for auditing without spend capability
* Multisig coordinator key backup (for those running multisig setups)
* Cold storage for mining pool operators or OTC dealers
* Secure backup of wallet files themselves (not just seeds)
The mathematical properties are particularly relevant for Monero given the privacy-focused threat model - you get provable security guarantees rather than relying purely on operational security measures.
Each share is a self-contained ZIP archive including the decryption software, so recovery works even if GitHub disappears or dependencies change. We've prioritized long-term viability for cold storage scenarios where you might not touch the backup for years.
**Disclosure:** I've been contributing to this project along with some security engineering colleagues. We built this after nearly losing critical keys during a team transition and figured the Monero community would appreciate a mathematically rigorous approach to cold storage.
GitHub: [https://github.com/katvio/fractum](https://github.com/katvio/fractum)
Security architecture: [https://fractum.katvio.com/security-architecture/](https://fractum.katvio.com/security-architecture/)
Interested in feedback from other security engineers in the community - particularly around operational procedures and threat modeling for high-value uses cases.

With some delay but much dedication the first version of [**NoShore**](https://xmr.zone/noshore) is now completed.
>
> Its concept is to make payments simpler for end-users by transferring some of the burden to merchants and back-ends.
>
> The back-end prepares transactions, so that all that remains to do for the user's device is to sign them.
>
> While, technically, this allows users to stay offline throughout the process, it is important to understand that the reasoning for going this route is not security.
>
> Instead, it is to reduce complexity, so that Monero may become accessible to broader audiences apart from tech-enthusiasts.
>
> The section "The Big Picture" on the project site describes what NoShore's usage could look like once fully developed.

Bitcoin’s 2008 white paper envisioned a currency created by idealistic volunteers totally free from banks which seemed to offer a promise of unprecedented freedom and security on the horizon but it seems to have fallen prey to pressures that the “industry dependent consumer life” puts upon the very people charged with the challenge to realise the dream. Nowhere is this pressure more stark than the Silicon Valley.
I have a solution that comes from another paradigm that I believe is overlooked. It is based on the premise that hermit sages and tribal village shamans are the most likely people to see and feel what true freedom and security looks like, ( as opposed to people already caught up in the hamster wheel of daily life ).
Hermit sages and tribal village shamans share at least two things in common that differentiate them from the average city person. They are more likely to experience deep states of relaxation and consciousnous that enable “ecstatic spirit flight” which is said to be a form of communion with the Divine and described as “becoming one with all parts of self, one’s surroundings and the universe.” They also sleep in simple, cosy debt free shelter. And I believe there is a loop that joins these two things together. One feeds the other.
And following in their footsteps I built a simple cosy handsculpted earthen sleeping pod hidden beside my parents suburban home. This little sanctuary frees me from mortgage debt or bills which gives me an unequalled sense of power and freedom which I believe is linked to cryptos ethos of decentralization and personal sovereignty.
I wonder whether if coders lived in an earthen sleeping pod like mine, it could free them to adhere to cryptos original values and not be swayed by industry demands.
As someone seeking to live an ethos ethos of freedom, and who has lived in America including in the the Silicon Valley, I now see the original vision of cryoto faltering in America, the birthplace of tech revolutions from computers to blockchain and also the killer of the dreams it births.
There is a paradox.The U.S. pioneers altruistic projects like open-source software and Bitcoin, perhaps in rebellion to the pressures of consumerism, but its citizens are among Earth’s most vulnerable, trapped in an industry-dependent, consumer reality, pressures that are most pronounced in the Silicon Valley and which thwart the idealistic dreams that it births. The lynchpin of this trap is the modern home which more than 4 generations of Americans have grown up in and normalised. The reality of eternal debts for shelter is embedded into the DNA of its citizenry and the only thing I can imagine that can rewrite the brain is the free time for true rest that a simple earthen sleeping pod like mine can provide.
In stark contrast to America, I have seen that in many other parts of the world, that many people have some kind of access to or exoerience with ancestral village security, where collectively owned intergenerational housing and land, free of any mortgage debts, produces harvests that are steeped in abundance and the spirit of generosity that overflows with soul-soothing rituals of song, dance, harvest festivals, music, and food sharing.
And I would argue that people living this reality are probably better equipped to create freedom solutions for the world but ironically they don’t. Paradoxically it’s perhaps because they don’t need to because they already have a healthy dose of freedom and security. Instead it’s people in places like Silicon Valley that do.
Since Americans and especially those in the cities lack such refuge it must have an effect on their work. And history has shown me this to be the case. For every promise of freedom that technology has promised, Americas industry dependent consumerism has turned the technology over to corporate behemoths that use the technology for its own end- as industry was designed to do. Industry sees humans as something outside of itself, as consumers to prey upon . And nowhere is this more pronounced than America and specifically the Sulicon Valley. In short we cannot trust citizens of that reality to save us. They are too caught up in the hamster wheel with no security behind them other than their earning power.
Even if there were a hypothetical Native American territory adjacent to the Silicon Valley where people could seek such refuge as I described, or build it up from scratch, the tech industry’s profit and debt driven driven tunnel vision hamster wheel would blind residents to their existence.
With median home prices at $1.5 million creating mortgage debt at unprecedented levels and rent at all time highs, how is it possible for coders to act with immunity?They cannot. They are tethered to legacy systems via their mortgages and cost of living. With homelessness a real possibility coders are under pressure to prioritise corporate jobs over open-source crypto, unlike coders in less dog-eat-dog societies.
America’s stress ripples globally effecting cryptocurrency in a negative way . U.S.-led trends, like Bitcoin’s shift to a Wall Street asset via BlackRock’s 2024 ETF and Coinbase’s institutional pivot, erode blockchain’s decentralized promise mimicking what is happening in China.
But what if coders could build a simple backyard earthen sleeping pod aligned to tribal indigenous huts and the mountain hermitages of hermit sages? What if they could permanently untether thenselves from the consumer dependent life of bills and debts? Through this simple act they would grant themselves a sense of freedom and power that might enable them to to build permissionless blockchains at their own pace, unswayed by Silicon Valley’s hamster wheel of consumerism.
What do you think? What better way, than returning shelter to its simple cosy sovereign roots, can we counter American vulnerability and its global impact, to reclaim technology’s promise for humanity?
Is my knowledge of how to do this of any value to the cryoto community? Anyone?

Hey everyone,
I’m 16 and just starting to learn about crypto. I want to buy a small amount to try things out, but I’m not sure what’s the easiest way to do this without having to go through a lot of complicated steps.
Does anyone know good platforms or methods for beginners to get a bit of crypto quickly and simply?
(im looking for something without KYC cause im under 18)
Thanks a lot!

## **How long does it take for my balance to unlock?**
Your balance is unlocked after 10 confirmations (which means 10 mined blocks). A block is mined approximately every two minutes on the Monero network, so that would be around 20 minutes.
## **How can I prove that I sent a payment?**
The fastest and most direct way is by using the [ExploreMonero](https://www.exploremonero.com/receipt) blockchain explorer. You will need to recover the transaction key from your wallet ([complete guide](https://getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/prove-payment.html) for GUI / CLI).
## **How do I buy Monero (XMR) with Bitcoin (BTC)?**
There are dozens of exchanges that trade Monero against Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Check out the list on [CoinMarketCap](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/monero/#markets) and choose the option that suits you best.
## **How do I buy Monero (XMR) with fiat?**
- [Kraken](https://kraken.com/) (USD and EUR): old-school, decent exchange. They might require your documents for verification and approval of your account.
- LocalMonero (localmonero[dot]co): peer-to-peer exchange. They have pretty much everything as a payment method and they support hundreds of fiat options.
## **How can I quickly exchange my Monero (XMR) for Bitcoin (BTC)?**
There are multiple ways to exchange your Monero for Bitcoin, but first of all, I'd like to remind you that if you really want to do your part for Monero, one of the simplest ways is to **get in touch with your merchant/service provider and request for it to accept Monero directly as payment.** Ask the service provider to visit the [official website](https://getmonero.org/) and our communication channels if he or she needs help with system integration.
That being said, the community has been recommending two services in particular, [ChangeNOW](https://changenow.io/) and [SideShift.AI](https://sideshift.ai/). These services are only recommendations (which change over time) and are operated by entities outside the control of the Monero Project. DYOR and be diligent.
## **How do I mine Monero? And other mining questions.**
The correct place to ask questions and discuss the Monero mining scene is in the dedicated subreddit r/MoneroMining. That being said, you can find a list of pools and available mining software in the [GetMonero.org](https://getmonero.org/get-started/mining/) website.

# 2. Wallet: CLI & GUI
## **Why I can't see my balance? Where is my XMR?**
Before any action there are two things to check:
1. Are you using the latest available version of the wallet? A new version is released roughly every 6 months, so make sure you're using the current release (compare the release on [GetMonero.org](https://getmonero.org/downloads/) with your wallet's version on `Settings`, under `Debug info`).
2. Is your wallet fully synchronized? If it isn't, wait the sync to complete.
Because Monero is different from Bitcoin, wallet synchronization is not instant. The software needs to synchronize the blockchain and use your private keys to identify your transactions. Check in the lower left corner (GUI) if the wallet is synchronized.
**You can't send transactions and your balance might be wrong or unavailable if the wallet is not synced with the network**. So please wait.
If this is not a sufficient answer for your case and you're looking for more information, please see this answer on [StackExchange](https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/6640/i-am-missing-not-seeing-a-transaction-to-in-the-gui-zero-balance).
## **How do I upgrade my wallet to the newest version?**
This question is beautifully answered on [StackExchange](https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/7991/how-do-i-upgrade-my-software-to-the-newest-version).
## **Why does it take so long to sync the wallet [for the first time]?**
You have decided to use Monero's wallet and run a local node. Congratulations! You have chosen the safest and most secure option for your privacy, but unfortunately this has an initial cost. The first reason for the slowness is that you will need to download the entire blockchain, which is considerably heavy (+70 GB) and constantly growing. There are technologies being implemented in Monero to slow this growth, however it is inevitable to make this initial download to run a full node. Consider syncing to a device that has an SSD instead of an HDD, as this greatly impacts the speed of synchronization.
Now that the blockchain is on your computer, the next time you run the wallet you only need to download new blocks, which should take seconds or minutes (depending on how often you use the wallet).
## **I don't want to download the blockchain, how can I skip that?**
The way to skip downloading the blockchain is connecting your wallet to a public remote node. You can follow [this guide](https://getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/remote_node_gui.html) on how to set it up. You can find a list of public remote nodes on [MoneroWorld](https://moneroworld.com/#nodes).
*Be advised that when using a public remote node you lose some of your privacy. A public remote node is able to identify your IP and opens up a range for [certain attacks](https://moneroworld.com/) that further diminish your privacy.* ***A remote node can't see your balance and it can't spend your XMR.***
## **How do I restore my wallet from the mnemonic seed or from the keys?**
To restore your wallet with the 25 word mnemonic seed, please see [this guide](https://getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/restore_account.html).
To restore your wallet with your keys, please see [this guide](https://getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/restore_from_keys.html).

# 3. Wallet: Ledger
## **How do I generate a Ledger Monero Wallet with the GUI or CLI?**
This question is beautifully answered on StackExchange. Check [this page](https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/9901/how-do-i-generate-a-ledger-monero-wallet-with-the-gui-monero-wallet-gui) for the GUI instructions, and [this page](https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/8503/how-do-i-generate-a-ledger-monero-wallet-with-the-cli-monero-wallet-cli) for the CLI instructions.

# 4. Wallet: Trezor
## **How do I generate a Trezor Monero Wallet with the GUI or CLI?**
This question is beautifully answered on StackExchange. Check [this page](https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/11437/how-do-i-generate-a-trezor-monero-wallet-with-the-gui-monero-wallet-gui) for the GUI instructions, and [this page](https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/11353/how-do-i-generate-a-trezor-monero-wallet-with-the-cli-monero-wallet-cli) for the CLI instructions.

# 5. Nodes
## **How can my local node become a public remote node?**
If you want to support other Monero users by making your node public, you can [follow the instructions on MoneroWorld](https://moneroworld.com/#contribute), under the section *"How To Include Your Node On Moneroworld"*.
## **How can I connect my node via Tor?**
This question is beautifully answered on [StackExchange](https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/467/running-a-full-node-without-revealing-my-home-ip-address).

Hello all!
Im a little new to solana itself but I was one of the original ETH2 holders when it was stakeable and saw a nice little return on it. Currently I am trying to save money up for moving into an apartment as I have just recently graduated university. I want to put a large portion of my current money market account into solana and stake it but I am worried about the potential risks. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Tldr; I am new to SOL staking and want to save money for an apartment.

Hey everyone. I just wanted to post a quick update about [monero.win](http://monero.win), a minimal, accountless Monero casino I’ve been building. I first shared it here a few months ago, and thanks to those who tried it out or gave feedback!
**Some stats:**
\- 2,600+ bets placed so far
\- Most volume of **64.66 XMR bet in 24 hour** period this week
\- Public bankroll ALWAYS visible (\~34 XMR right now)
\- No exploits or hacks (yet lol 🥴)
**- The house is down \~3 XMR**
\- Several nights of missed sleep because of nonstop 1 XMR coinflip bets
Also provably fair, you can verify entire round chain yourself with the posted code.
**I'm looking for new game ideas.** If you have something fun, or crazy, or unique in mind let me know I'd love to work on adding it.
Thanks again for the support and feedback!

\[Context\]:
Proton currently does not accept Monero as a payment method.
David Peterson (@davidgpeterson on X), who is the General Manager of Proton VPN, has stated they will add Monero support to their Summer roadmap if there is an online petition with 1000 people acknowledging they'd switch to Proton VPN (Or a Proton product in general)
(Screenshot from [https://x.com/davidgpeterson/status/1939019623237570951](https://x.com/davidgpeterson/status/1939019623237570951))
So if you'd like to see this happen,sign the petition! And spread it around.

I’ve been following the restaking trend for a while now, mostly on ethereum with eigenlayer and protocols building on top of it. But finally **Solana** has one that is even more of an upgraded version of eigenlayer but fully native to Solana.
the protocol is called Fragmetric, I believe some of us here have come across it already, its pretty simple and straight forward yet has use in the solana ecosystem in general.
You stake your SOL or liquid staking tokens like JitoSOL and you get FragSOL, which still earns rewards for you but also gives you room to use it across DeFi.
The whole point of defi restaking is keep your rewards coming in while staying liquid, and Fragmetric does that in a smooth way. No overcomplication
back to fragmetric protocol update: their token is about to go live and it’s already available on Bitget Launchpool for early bgb/frag stakers on CEX to earn, it will be listed several exchanges on July 1st.
Let's see what will unfold with Fragmetric, For me The protocol user experience is cool, but I want to know more from other users too
any fragmetric user to narrative their experience?

Hello!
Good morning/afternoon/evening!
I've heard about [Oblivious Transfer](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblivious_transfer) as a solution for wallet synchronization that maintains Secrecy, what do you think? It would be interesting to implement in a Monero wallet if it forms the way it is described.
Comment quoting "OT":
"There is a technology called Oblivious Transfer that is not adopted by any lightweight Monero client. The various alternative solutions compromise secrecy in certain ways. Selecting a specific transaction manually is a compromise solution, but it's far from ideal.
If Oblivious Transfer were fully implemented in a lightweight Monero client, there would be no problem of compromised privacy."

The problem with the double spend problem is not that the nodes of the network are unable to independently resolve double spend attacks, but that there is no universal method that maintains consensus and can't be exploited. For example, if they follow the rule that, of the two or more transactions in a double spend attack, the one with the smallest TXID is valid, an attacker can publish the transaction with the largest TXID first then, some time later, publish the one with the smallest TXID, which then replaces the first.
The sole purpose of a consensus protocol is to temporarily permit one randomly selected user to make the decision for everyone else. That's what miners and forgers do when they create blocks for blockchains. Cosign Consensus is a protocol that aims to resolve double spend attacks without blockchain. Transactions are confirmed individually as users randomly select each other to cosign their inputs. There is no inflation because new coins are not generated in coinbase transactions. It's fully decentralized without work, so it has no measurable impact on the environment.
When a sender creates a new transaction to spend their UTXOs, they need to compile a priority list of cosigner addresses for each new output. Nobody can be trusted to select addresses at will or they would choose their own addresses, so they have to select addresses using a verifiable random function (VRF). Each new output gets a big list of addresses, like 100. Once the sender broadcasts their transaction, their address is added to the pool so they can be selected as a cosigner by other users.
Cosigning is optional. Nobody is required to do it, but it earns fees and helps secure the network. When you cosign an input, you also include an additional output for your fee. Naturally, nodes who want to earn as much in fees as possible are going to want to flood the mempool with addresses, to increase their odds being selected. Spam is unfair to other cosigners and it risks compromising the diversity of consensus, therefore, at any given time, the max fee for all cosigners is equal to the percentage of new outputs in the mempool relative to the total number of UTXOs in the global ledger. Senders can include a max fee limit in their transactions, and cosigners can always decide whether to cosign for lower fees.
Once selected, a cosigner has three options:
* sign nothing
* sign one thing
* sign everything
If they sign nothing or everything, they accomplish nothing and forfeit the fee. The only option that earns them the fee, protects their wealth, and secures the network is to sign just one input, in one transaction. When an output is finally spent, however many days, weeks, months, or years later, everyone on the priority list can immediately cosign the input in the new transaction, but the highest address on the list is valid.
If a double spend attack involves multiple transactions with one input for the same UTXO, the fee goes to the highest cosigner on the list who correctly signs just one input. UTXOs are subject to change by this process until the top cosigner responds, or an output is spent.
If a double spend attack involves multiple transactions, each with multiple inputs for the same set of UTXOs, the inputs should be listed by the size of the TXIDs of the UTXOs they reference in ascending order and cosigners must sign them in that order to avoid signing more than one transaction. The one who correctly signs the first input is the one who ultimately decides which of these transactions is valid.
With a reliable consensus protocol, it shouldn't be necessary to retain the full history of transactions. Just keeping the previous three to five generations of transactions behind every UTXO ensures the ledger is small and portable.

Please stay on topic: this post is only for comments discussing the uncertainties, shortcomings, and concerns some may have about Monero.
**NOT the positive aspects of it.**
Discussion can relate to the technology itself or economics.
Talk about community and price is not wanted, but some discussion about it maybe allowed if it relates well.
Be as respectful and nice as possible. This discussion has potential to be more emotionally charged as it may bring up issues that are extremely upsetting: many people are not only financially but emotionally invested in the ideas and tools around Monero.
It's better to keep it calm then to stir the pot, so don't talk down to people, insult them for spelling/grammar, personal insults, etc. This should only be calm rational discussion about the technical and economic aspects of Monero.
"Do unto others 20% better than you'd expect them to do unto you to correct subjective error." - Linus Pauling
**How it works:**
Post your concerns about Monero in reply to this main post.
If you can address these concerns, or add further details to them - reply to that comment. This will make it easily sortable
Upvote the comments that are the most valid criticisms of it that have few or no real honest solutions/answers to them.
The comment that mentions the biggest problems of Monero should have the most karma.
As a community, as developers, we need to know about them. Even if they make us feel bad, we got to upvote them.

## Introduction
Now that [ETIP - 123 Adjusted DONUT rewards for users transferring over 25% of lifetime earnings](https://snapshot.box/#/s:ethtraderdao.eth/proposal/0xc50a202a666f78ba883d33245f045cf4954cfd45078b840596d15c57a5821811) has passed, our distribution pipeline needs an upgrade to add the new multiplier logic.
This system calculates a user's DONUT distribution based on how much of their lifetime earnings they transferred, using the formula explained in ETIP - 123.
---
## Objective
The objective of this DI is to request a grant to reward u/reddito321 for writing new code which will be incorporated into the snapshot process.
The new logic involves scanning past user earnings, applying a formula, then excluding Donuts spent on Special Memberships + LPing and outputting updated governance scores with distribution penalties applied.
---
## Reward
u/reddito321 requests a grant of 200K DONUT + 200K CONTRIB, from the treasury, to compensate for the time, testing, and complexity involved in implementing this logic.
---
## Conclusion
This DI, tied to ETIP - 123, is important to protect the Donut ecosystem from extractive behavior and reward the users who stay committed long term.
Both u/reddito321 and u/mattg1981 have consistently delivered high quality work, and this grant is a fair recognition of that (for u/reddito321).
Through this DI, we keep building fair systems and support the devs who make it happen.

I told my friend — who runs a small alcohol shop — about Monero and its benefits. He loved the idea and decided to accept XMR as payment.
I recorded a short video to show how easy it is. Cool to see crypto being used in everyday life!

**TL;DR:** The "frustrated builder memecoin" narrative is played out. People can smell it from orbit. Build something real first, then maybe we'll talk about tokens.
**EDIT:** Devs who are building feel free to use this post to promote! If I see a memecoin im going to downvote.
I've been watching the same play run over and over in crypto, especially on Solana, and honestly I think we're all getting tired of it.
**The script goes like this:**
* "I'm frustrated watching people get rugged"
* "Bad actors keep winning while good builders get ignored"
* "This token is for the real ones, the builders, the misfits"
* "If this moons, I promise I'll reinvest in education/tools/infrastructure"
* "We're different because we actually care"
Sound familiar? Because I've seen this exact pitch about 500 times in the last few months.
**Here's the problem:** Everyone can spot this narrative from a mile away now. It's become the standard memecoin playbook. The market has heard "frustrated builder creates token for other frustrated builders" so many times that it's just white noise at this point.
**What people are actually tired of:**
* Tokens launched with promises of what they'll build "if they get funding"
* The same sob story about rugs and bad actors (we all have that story)
* "Reckoning" and "revolution" language that means nothing
* Asking people to buy into your frustration instead of your actual work
**What would actually be refreshing:**
* Projects that build first, token later (if at all)
* Developers who contribute to existing ecosystems before asking for money
* Tools and infrastructure that solve real problems
* Educational content that helps people without asking them to buy anything first
Look, I'll be honest - I even wanted to launch a memecoin myself. Had the whole pitch ready, the frustration narrative, the promises about what I'd build with the proceeds. But then I took a hard look at it and realized this is just a waste of everyone's time. So instead I said fuck it, let's just build first.
I'm not trying to shit on anyone specifically, but the meta has shifted. People want to see proof of work, not proof of frustration. If you're genuinely passionate about building something better, just... start building it. The community will notice actual utility way faster than they'll notice another "movement" token.
Maybe it's time we focus on rewarding projects that ship actual value instead of the ones with the best origin story about why crypto is broken.
AI helped me write this because left to my own devices it would just be 'STOP MAKING SHITCOINS' in all caps or just "bruh stop" repeated 47 times.
**EDIT**: Didn't know where to post this, I'm usually just a lurker, I've noticed that some devs are using this post to plug their projects. Feel free too as they been pretty cool but if I see a memecoin I'll be down voting it.

Update: First post got deleted because of the group names I mentioned (the ones I am part of), so I had to remove those group names and replaced it with a (Removed) placeholder.
Hello Everyone,
I’m looking for a serious person that I can partner up with to collaborate **long term** on Solana trading (Sol only) and figure out a strategy and from there share profits. Maybe there is someone here that has the opposite situation where they have an eye for a winning strategy but can't afford serious gear.
Here is where I stand and what I bring to the table:
Bots:
* I have Blood, Ozmo and Hexis and can add Mintech, Sharp, Vision, Leap or Shadow if needed. Also have Nova, Axiom and all the other mainstream bots of course.
Server:
* A bare-metal Ryzen 9 9950X3D with 64 GB DDR5, 1 TB NVMe, 2 x 10 Gbps Ports and 100 TB monthly bandwidth.
Location & Latency:
* Same Data Center as the RPC Provider with a dedicated route in FRA01 (approximately 0.48ms ping from my server to RPC) and approximately 0.74ms ping and Jito.
RPC Elite Pass:
* 2500 RPS and 600 TPS, with 3000 RPS and 720 TPS burst.
Groups & Tools:
* (Removed) API & Monitors (800 USD per month).
* (Removed) Professional Plan with API (1000 USD per month) access.
Both have around 2 weeks left on it.
I can cover fees for groups such as (Removed) or any others groups that you think we need.
With hardware, software, feeds and group access all sorted, the only thing I’m missing is a winning strategy. I’ve tried PF Sniper Modules, Copy Trading and everything else I can think of and nothing has struck profitability. I need to start making profits very soon as I am scraping the bottom of the barrel from a financial perspective. Between all the bot licenses, renewals, server, strategy trials, etc. (real) not simulation / paper trading I have poured into it around €45k so far.
If you know Solana trading, PF, small-cap tokens and bot-based approaches, and you already have a proven method, let’s talk.
**I apologies but no time for teaching beginners at this time,** I shared a lot of information and knowledge with newbies as I was once a newbie too, and some random stranger spent time to teach me, however at the moment I must focus on making this to take off. Not interested to work with people who want upfront fees and one off jobs.
If I decide to partner up with two people instead of one, obviously profits will be shared accordingly, so beware of this, and everyone will be made aware from Day 1. I believe in honest and direct communication so all will be made clear from the beginning.
I want a long-term partnership with someone who knows their stuff from a strategy / technical perspective. Serious people only, if that's you message me.
Once I find the right fit, you will get access to the server and bot of course and regarding the subscription services I will try to find a way or some work around to give you access to all tools or groups as well, we can work out the details when time comes.
**Scammers, time wasters, and jokesters please stay away, you're not going to get anything out of me/it as I will not pay upfront for whatever you have to sell or offer.**
This is a serious offer and partnership I am looking for an offering. I managed to find the "best" in all the above so I have 95% cracked, but can't seem to crack the last 5% and I am running out of "time" (funds).
Any questions feel free to ask here, or DM me.
Thank you,
KS.
PS:
It was pointed out to me by someone who commented before (and rightfully so) that an important aspect I didn't cover is how do we ensure mutual trust, and the honest answer to that question is, I don't know at the moment, I am open to suggestions and ideas to make this work, as I am not in this for a quick buck, and we can try and find someone we both know to vouch. Again, not sure how to handle this aspect, we can work on it once we get to that point.

Long time LP provider, first time on Solana.
I'm used to paying zero dollars to set up liquidity pools, so I was quite high-eyebrowed when I saw I was charged about $50 to set up a Raydium v2 pool.
Are there other, cheaper solutions on Solana? AI tells me that 0.3 Sol is the norm.

mymonero has caused me to lose 8 bucks (which is a lot in my local currency) because their wallet for some reason doesnt support the creation of tx proofs and doesnt store the tx secret key.
i sent some money to cryptomus (payment processor) and when it didnt go through they asked me for the tx proof via the tx secret key. now this would be fine with any other wallet, but for some reason fluffypony was a dolt and didnt think of one of the most important parts of a monero wallet.
i was unable to prove the transaction even occurred and now i just donated 8 bucks to the fucking void. thanks fluffypony

Total Value locked in [Sushi.com](https://sushi.com/) is $ 39.74k
* 5.39667 ETH ($13.49k)
* 5391100 DONUT ($26.25k)
* Trading Volume in last 24 hours = $ 94.01
* Trading Volume in last 7 days = $ 1.34k
* In the last 7 days ETH is has moved +11.7 %
* In the last 7 days DONUT has moved +9.7 %
* Last week 1 ETH = 493.29k DONUT
* Today 1 ETH = 513.51k DONUT
* 6395.6 DONUT per day distributed amongst all in range positions.
This last week in DONUT has been a bit of a quiet one again, continuing the trend on low volume the week before the end of round snapshot takes place. It will be interesting to observe changes to this week of the cycle when the rewards multiplier adjustments are ongoing.
The last 30 days (The month of June, give or take a day) has come to a total trading volume of 42.5k on Arbitrum, with a highest day record of 7.84k
Let's see what the month of July has in store for us, perhaps 50k in TVL and 50k in monthly trading volume?

ETH has returned to the 2.5k range, and this has helped bring DONUT back up to about $0.005, with a small difference between the two networks..
Mainnet = $0.005371
Arbitrum = $0.004836
The current yield farm is set to expire in the next 2 days, and a new term will top up the Sushi pool, which should come to a similar amount of nearly 6400 DONUT per day, amongst active liquidity positions.
The liquidity pool has grown 2 new providers in the last week as well, may your positions provide nice nice profits!
