    Be careful when recommending third-party websites!

    You don’t know what happens to the metadata.

    Newcomers in particular may not know how to successfully protect themselves when they visit such websites.

    Established large providers such as Cake, Edge or Kraken can be recommended without a link.

    External sources are always vulnerable.

    No big surprise. What is Switzerland known for throughout the world? For its anonymous accounts. Monero replaces what Switzerland has gained worldwide fame for.

    «In der Schweiz sind anonyme Wallets gemäss Geldwäschereigesetz verboten. Die Sorgfaltspflichten verlangen, dass die Vertragspartei und der wirtschaftlich Berechtigte identifiziert werden.»

    Wallet transactions can be made visible using keys.





  • … maybe

    • Large miners connect entire warehouses full of computers to the Monero network.
    • The new Tari token also uses the Monero network for its consensus mechanism and increases the popularity of Monero. Even among long-established graphics card miners.
    • The price increase boosts profitability and so more workers come to mine.
    • The popularity of privacy increases as there is more and more surveillance, control and censorship by states. Privacy is also being talked about and worked towards in communities of other large networks, e.g. ADA and BCH.
    • There is less Monero than there is Bitcoin and scarcity is popular due to the widespread HODL mentality.
    • As the price rises, the ranking in many lists rises, which in turn attracts the attention of investors.
    • Large sums are routed through Monero as it guarantees uncensorability due to its privacy. This was also the case recently with Bitcoin worth 330 million US dollars.
    • Many online markets now only offer Monero, as it is untraceable and thus offers security for buyers and sellers.

  • The first time I used it, I found it inconvenient that the program had to be executed for it to work. But that’s the way it’s designed, as a program for decentralized trading that everyone who wants to use the system has to run. It should also soon be available for mobile devices. A decentralized trading platform for your pocket! Really fascinating and a vision of the future that has become reality!

    PSA: Tari launched today, merge mining is now available for P2Pool miners Starting from today, all P2Pool miners can merge mine Monero and Tari - your hashrate can mine two coins at the same time.

    You will need to run Tari software in addition to P2Pool:

    ./p2pool --wallet YOUR_MONERO_WALLET_ADDRESS --merge-mine tari://TARI_NODE_IP:18102 TARI_WALLET_ADDRESS

    and

    ./minotari_node --grpc-enabled --mining-enabled

    TARI_NODE_IP is 127.0.0.1 if you run both on the same machine (recommended).

    Merge mining is available on Tari’s mainnet:

    Download Tari suite for your OS

    Run Minotari node and wait until in synchronizes

    Run Minotari console wallet to create a Tari wallet.

    Copy the interactive wallet address from the “Receive” tab of the wallet

    Paste it into the P2Pool command line above

    Everything is ready now to start merge mining Monero and Tari!

    Tari block explorer: https://explore.tari.com/

    Note that Tari will be mined in solo mode (only full Tari blocks can be mined for now). This doesn’t affect P2Pool payouts - they will stay the same.
