Bitcoin=Snitchcoin
Monero won’t broadcast every exchange’s handler’s details: IP address, ID, time & Date, Amount, Target, Totals, etc.
Just use Lightning and you’ll have literally the same onion routing as Tor. Monero doesn’t hide your IP address or dates either.
If there’s ever an inflation bug in Monero (like the value overflow incident), it will go undetected.
Doesn’t stop the transaction from being broadcast all details. TOR or not don’t matter. Broadcast of all details is %100 lightning or not. Monero DOES “hide” your details. It may be visible that I access the Monero network if I don’t ride a VPN but it doesn’t matter. No more info about said usage is broadcast.
I can see you used PornHub today too. Should have used a VPN. I know how long you watched each of those videos too. Maybe find a VPN that accepts Monero, not the Snitchcoin.
“Bug” LMFAO
We don’t strongly disagree here - we’re both protecting our online privacy by bouncing that traffic around a little, through either a VPN or Tor.
We’re betting our freedom on the assumption that the bad guys won’t compromise each hop. It’s easier for them to compromise PornHub and then my VPN than it is to compromise each LN hop. So Monero won’t make my wanking any safer; the dick police will just go after the weakest link.
The value overflow incident was a bug that allowed some dude to give himself a bazillion bitcoins. It was caught and fixed before he spent any.
I’m betting on the ability to have the masses learn to protect themselves by adapting to FOSS.
In other words. We’re all gonna die. Very fucking soon. Faster than any cracker can break Monero.
Zcash too if you enable it
Fraud. Zcash is closed source. Also it’s a backdoor backstabbing snitch coin too. Touching that is ignorant.
Willing to be wrong as I mostly observe from afar but the repo is here: https://github.com/zcash/zcash
How z-to-z shielded transactions using zero-knowledge proofs snitching?
Just use coinjoin over Tor
Or swap for Monero over Bisq (TOR market). Whatever. Bitcoin is Snitchcoin. Everything is broadcast enough you cannot avoid it. Even your methods aren’t enough.
idling
With how much power proof of work takes it’s more like putting a brick on the gas pedal in park
I wish for Lemmy Gold hoo boy
Could donate to OP’s instance. More useful than reddit gold ever was that way.
A button for that would be pretty neat.
Yep, people will throw hundreds if not thousands of dollars at big tech giant for random useless cosmetic stuff. Using this late stage consumerism drive for actual good is honestly the best solution. This is not sarcasm. I actually lost faith in the fight against Hyper-consumerism.
Maybe make it more interesting “give this man a medal” and you pay money for that, but the money gets donated to the instance. That could be cool.
Great idea!
they real story is more interesting. it’s just a shame that the incentives were aligned a bit askew. people gonna people.
The value of mining is in permanent recording of people’s current heroin transactions. The bitcoin you get is the reward for the service.
