  • New Haveno Network: Dawnswap

    Jump

  • How new are you guys? I am talking about the history, not what was put up afterwards. Originally there was supposed to be 1 network, run by the engine council.

    We only have 1 Monero network, is that a single point of failure? I hear nobody arguing that there should be a second one.

  • This is not decentralization, this is splintering the decentralized network we already have.

  • New Haveno Network: Dawnswap

    Jump

  • as this was never intended by the Haveno Network project.

    Jesus these guys are running a network and have no clue about Havenos history. It was in fact VERY MUCH intended to only have one network. I know this because I was voted by the community to be on the council that was supposed to run it....

    Haveno is already decentralized, secondary networks have nothing but downsides, negatively impacting the Monero DEX experience for all users.

  • Bad look reusing the RetoSwap naming scheme, makes me immediately suspicious why they would do that.

    "Show me the incentives and I'll show you the outcome." - The only incentives I see here are for the admins to exit scam.

    Id stay far away from this one, just like the last two scam haveno networks.

  • What happened to localmonero, localcryptos, and LocalBitcoins? Did competition close them, or was it governments? Is paxful a non-kyc alternative, particularly for localbitcoins?

    Jump

  • The centralized services always shut down in the end. This is why I am pushing so hard for people to just learn how to use Haveno. Once you get used to it, it's awesome and you don't have to worry about it just vanishing one day since it's a decentralized p2p network similar to bisq.

  • That's nice to hear! Yeah I've been doing alright too. I always keep pushing things down the road but I actually recorded something (its trash though, gotta re-record). I've prepared VMs for it already, probably recording it this weekend.

  • Hi Kitty, must have been 2-3 years since I last saw you around. You doing alright?

  • What if Haveno trading partner sends different payment currency?

    Jump

  • The protocol is very flexible if both parties agree to it. Someone once sent me mexican dollars or some shit but I could convert them pretty cheaply within the fiat institution so i just asked them to send $5 extra to cover that for me and completed the trade. Especially when you think it's not malice but a mistake, then I'd just point out the mistake and tell them to stick to the offer next time.

  • Having Trouble Upgrading to Retoswap v1.0.19 on Tails

    Jump

  • First of all, I don't really care where people get their Monero. It's a fungible asset.

    Sorry the first reply was so hostile. Last few weeks have been pretty stressful and I interpreted you mentioning specifically me by name as some sort of backhanded attack :/

  • Having Trouble Upgrading to Retoswap v1.0.19 on Tails

    Jump

  • Haveno already runs on tor, imo it's a bit strange to want to run it on Tails, which isn't designed for that kind of usage. If you are already going to be schizo, at least go all out and do a proper Qubes setup. Nobody can tell me that they NEED to run it on tails when they are incapable of just figuring out how the script needs to be adjusted (bcs let's be honest, most likely all you have to do is swap out 1 version number in the script). I'd assume that you don't want to run it on tails because you actually know how you'd benefit from it, instead I'd think you just heard tails is "the safest option" and because it is "the safest option", you assume that it has priority over literally anything else. That's why, in my opinion, Tails support is and should not be a deal-breaker priority.

    xmr_unlimited said "you also have users that need their spoons to be spoon fed" and imo those guys should stick to an OS that is designed for it. If you don't know what you're doing, you are more likely to fuck up trying to run Havneo on tails vs just running it on Ubuntu. Sure, ideally all releases are well-tested and issue-free on all platforms but getting annoyed that the custom install solution isn't instantly available after an update ain't it (and "calling out" others to comment on that ain't it either).

    Edit: Sorry, didn't see you already pinged me about this 4 days ago but I missed it. In that case the "calling out" is not an issue.

  • 📢RetoSwap v1.0.19 released - adds cloned offers & custom info boxes

    Jump

  • Just reposting the release notes here for anyone that missed it. I really like the custom info boxes because you can put contact info in there, which will make it way easier to actually take the 0% deposit offers. There are some lag-spikes for me on Windows but I believe a patch is already in the pipeline. We will probably get a bunch of fixes in 1.0.20

  • Too bad, good thing we have a high-quality livestream for the talks :)

  • Introducing XMRGlobal VOUCHER — a world-first.

    Jump

  • I could be wrong but, based on the limited documentation, it looks to me like they hold on to the Monero and then send it out when someone claims the voucher. Think of it like a fully centralized second layer (since you can essentially transfer Monero without on chain transactions, even if you have to trust that the admins won't just run with all the Monero from non-spent vouchers). I don't really see the point of this because Monero is already very inexpensive to move on the base layer and you are trusting the admins to never touch the idle Moneros.

    Not saying that it can't have any usecases, for example: it would be easy to hand out a bunch of vouchers at events (and these guys are sponsors of this year's Monerokon 😜).

  • Do you consider Monero as investment or only the payment option?

    Jump

  • I use it for spending and to store value.

    It is up more than 2x since the binance delisting last year and has outperformed Bitcoin, anyone saying Monero can't work as a store of value is wrong. Because it's so stable, it works even better. During this week's crash I was not very worried because I knew XMR is rising in price die to its utility, not from speculation, and this crash did not impact its utility in the slightest.

  • New Alternatives for No-KYC Cash by Mail Trades and No-KYC BTC <-->XMR Swaps: XMRGlobal and DMswap

    Jump

  • No, there are now 0% deposit offers. You currently need to figure out how to get in contact with a seller beforehand though, the next update will add contact information to the offers which will make them a lot more useful.

  • Looks scammy to me. Just use Haveno.

  • Are there any strong competitors of Monero?

    Jump

  • Negative. Every single one of them has some massive red flags that make them nonviable.

  • There has been a bunch of drama specifically about this CCS. Reto was censored because Kewbit believes I run it (lol) and wanted to "punish" me for demanding source code before CCS payout.

  • RetoSwap and the Kewbit drama

    Jump

  • Nice conspiracy theory, sadly falls apart when you realize the only reason there is any drama at all is because Kewbit doesn't make his code public.

    After Kewbit threatened to remove Reto from Haveno.com due to an argument with me (lol?), it also makes a lot of sense that they want to reduce exposure to that name.

    multiple haveno networks needs to be a top short term priority

    I really disagree. Haveno is already a decentralized p2p network. We don't have multiple different Monero mainnets to "improve decentralization". Bisq has been around for a decade, there is a reason why nobody ever set up a second Bisq network.
