  • Even with services like Proton (big company in the privacy realm) etc, you can only fully trust yourself.

    That’s why documents are always client side encrypted before I send my data, to any cloud platform.

    Exactly. I will never understand why people have their secret GPG-key on services like Tuta or Proton instead of on their own devices. 😂

  • Kraken is delisting Monero in the EEA (Europe)

    Jump

  • I'm curious how long this will last. Kraken is the last rock in the storm. I can imagine that Cake/Trocador/Changenow/Majestic/Godex/etc. will also buy XMR from Kraken. Kraken is the only Fiat XMR gateway I know of. Fed and Gov could have simply closed this last fiat on/off ramp. It may be that Haveno makes it easier for US-Kraken XMR to continue to exist.

  • This was a topic in Haveno Simplex a few days ago. Not directly KYC but bank transfer or credit card number is necessary.

    Cake wallet has only been running on Debian for a few weeks and is in beta. I have never bought through it or from any SWAPS. In the past, I bought XMR almost exclusively via limit buy on Binance & Kraken. And you know what I've been doing since five months 😅

  • At least in the US. You could register an LLC and trade from Europe. Costs about €1500.

  • KYC

    Even with KYC, you can no longer get XMR in Europe. 😒 Anycoindirect & Litebit -> Down. Binance & Kraken delist XMR Haveno (Haveno-reto) is exactly the right thing at the right time.

  • The reason I don’t use Haveno is because, all I’ve wanted since the beginning, was a simple UI like the now-defunct Wizardswap where I could say “Convert X XMR for Y BTC” and that was it. A user interface similar to Morphtoken.

    For this purpose https://serai.exchange/ & https://unstoppableswap.net/ is being developed. You are welcome to help further develop, beta test or donate so that developers get paid.

    If more people helped instead of just complaining and waiting for others to do it, things would be much better in the Monero community.

    Back when Haveno started, it seemed like they were going to go down this route, but alas, we have an overcomplex GUI and network designed for fiat on/off ramp that, while many people ask for, doesn’t bring much liquidity and doesn’t have many people use.

    ?? Haveno is a Bisq fork and it has been clear for 4 years what it will be. A Bisq fork without DAO and mainly a Fiat <-> XMR gateway. Because that is exactly what was needed, which the latest news from Kraken makes clear again.

  • Is problem receiving dirty money thanks to Haveno?

    Jump

  • If so, then you can not say that Monero and fiat are separate.

    ?? Example Haveno: Ali from Istanbul sends Bob in Berlin 1000,- Eur. Only Ali and Bob know what the 1000.- euros are for.

    I am thinking about some KYC on a XMR buyer side along with some way XMR seller leave a review on a buyer in case trouble with fiat. The DEX I am unsure if supports KYC+feedback.

    The main point of Bisq & Haveno is NON KYC! "in case of trouble" That's what security deposit is for. It is punished with XMR. For this reason, very little fraud has occurred in the last 8 years.

    Somehow you contradict yourself. You want untraceable transactions first and then KYC.

    Every dollar in the world has been used by criminals to purchase weapons or drugs. Often even supported by governments. Cocaine can be detected on almost every euro note. Fiat is fungible & Monero is fungible. So who cares?

  • Did I miss some big de-listing news for Kraken and it's US based customers?

    Jump

  • They first collect your TAX and other data. Then comes a 2nd verification with ID and video chat. I exchanged everything for XMR at Kraken Germany on June 5th and then closed my account. That would have been the 3rd or 4th verification with them. I'm fed up with handing over my ID and video images everywhere. The verification is done via 3rd party services and I'm afraid of AI deepfakes. Haveno, Bisq and soon Serai DEX is enough for me.

  • HavenoMain - Yet another instance of HavenoDex

  • https://github.com/haveno-dex/haveno/issues/987 (Monero misspelled twice) Are u/KTzer087 & u/haveno-user the HavenoMain scammers? Apparently they want Tether in Haveno but can't program it themselves. They probably can't do anything more than click the fork button and buy domains. ¯(ツ)/¯

  • Yes, for years we in the Tor community have been trying to point out this to new relay operators: https://community.torproject.org/relay/technical-considerations/ Try to avoid the following hosters:

    • OVH SAS (AS16276)
    • Online S.a.s. (AS12876)
    • Hetzner Online GmbH (AS24940)
    • DigitalOcean, LLC (AS14061)
    • Frantech/BuyVM (AS53667) is also often full, because Francisco allows exits and he takes care of the abuse mail shit.

    Guards, bridges and middle relays can actually be operated at nearly any hoster. They don't get abuse and don't attract attention. It's difficult to find a hoster for an exit. It's best to have your own AS.

  • In the Tor community we are considering how much a relay operator can have in total and where we draw the line. NTH currently has almost 20% exit traffic and we (5 orgs in an AS) have a bit more. https://nusenu.github.io/OrNetStats/

  • And by sending a signal watermark embedded with the onion address to the Tor circuit, we establish a correlation between the onion address and IP address of a Monero Tor hidden service node

    And what does that achieve? He can also easily find my Monero node IP's + IPv6's + onion addresses in a Github issue and does not need research wodoo. ;-) He cannot see who connects his wallet there via Tor.
