A bit of wood:


It would make a nice woodwallet (with a 3D printer or a sticker)

Should engrave reasonably well too. Hmm, I might have to try this...

The logo looks incredible there.

From a former cabinet and furniture makers view I would get rid of that pine or spruce wood and go try out walnut, oak, or ash.  Plank is huge compared to logo.  Cut it down a little.  Engraved with the painted logo and lettering the way it is colored now would look good on real wood, just a little bigger on the logo and lettering and smaller on the wood plank. Perhaps some fancy routing around the edges.

This company does great work by the way.  No affiliation.

If you guys REALLY want a wooden engraving of the XMR logo and "Monero", I could maybe make it happen with the couple of CNC machines I have access to  Cool

Hand carved?

 Grin


Noo... that would be too messy/difficult to replicate  Cheesy
With CNC, I can create 1 design on computer, and produce the same thing 1,000,000 times (computer controlled engraving process).

There's been extensive literature on this (i'm sure david L will step in with a good link or two)
Sure, sir!

- https://youtu.be/_PRLuaD-qVQ?t=10m12s "Monero is the esperanto name for money. Our target audience is 7 billions people so better to have an international name."
- https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.6362485 "Changing bitmonero (BMR) to monero (MRO)"


Furthermore, bitcoin has already been "kleenexed" or "xeroxed" or "band aid"ed. (If you're outside the US, we call a tissues kleenex because a major brand "kleenex" made a lot of tissues. The company Xerox created the photocopier, and it was such a mindblowing concept that people didn't know what to call it, so Xerox had to come up with "photocopy", but peopled started calling the process "xeroxing"... I forget the name of the phenomenon, but companies actually invest money to STOP this from happening, because eventually the public associates a given thing with a given brand name, regardless of the actual brand.)

Hey, I started this 3D logo shit!


I like the logo but the text and font are ... well.. suboptimal.

Thanks for the feedback.

Yes, the logo is actually supposed to be round Smiley

Puts me to mind of a Hofstadter joke:

What w⬡uld this sentence l⬡⬡k like if π were 3?

Ah Godel, Escher, Bach.

Gladimor's "circle" was 2x a hexagram though...

I've had him as a professor for almost a year now Smiley
Took structured verse with him in the fall, now sexism in language. What a guy

a win8.1/64bit PE bootable stick. If the persistent image contain the XMR wallet and the DB is written to the USB/Local HDD, that would've been awesome.

Oman this would be so cool if an entrepreneur could package this in the form of a monero application specific device that was 100% plug and play with an environment designed to prevent them from being able to make security mistakes. I would probably pay way too much for that. Or even if the devs could some day produce a developer signed bootable image.

^^^ I dream of a device like this for Monero daily^^^   Off network cold wallet storage device but can be plugged in to transfer or pay with. 

You should watch USB Armory from InversePath Smiley

I like the non bolded part but your comment in bold is confusing. I mean can you say BTC is no better than governent fiat, yet it holds its value (no huge governmental inflation), has a host of other benefits, etc. Sounds like you are giving us an either or thing here, and it ain't that. It is disruptive and it's affect is not separate from the interconnect system. It's effects will be felt in far reaching ways. (e.g. Blockchain tech.)


I'm talking about coins that are instamined and/or got their rules of emission (printing money) changed, and the brand changed many times (BTC/XMR never did that!)

coins are dumped and distributed into the market (dash like to use this argument to play down their emission changes): but this argument is only fair if you do not change the rules of the game aka screwing late adopters forever.

You cant make sure every person in the world has the same tools and capabilities to mine Bitcoin/Monero (same mining equipment and software) but you can make sure the rules are never changed and told upfront (keeping consensus).

oops! Sorry for the confusion. But it felt like an expression for me. LOL

Agreed btw.

no surprising re-namings, no fishy optimized miners

Here's the facts: optimized miners, specially secret optimized miners are a reality in all kinds of coins, like specialized mineral mining equipment, the thing is, while you cannot make sure everyone at all times have access to the same amount of hashing power and algo optimization, (and even money to buy coins) you can make sure they are playing on equal grounds, no tampering with emission and making asics virtually impossible of mining the coin, thats the situation we have with Monero. In Bitcoin history individuals had access to optimized miners from the very beginning, coins are dumped and distributed into the market, but this argument is only fair if you do not change the rules of the game aka screwing late adopters forever, thats what crypto is about, any coin that goes away with consensus is no better than FIAT!

As a normal human being I don't find it being screwed to have money that isn't used for war and holds it's value as opposed to being inflated away (e.g. Euro down 30% plus, maybe as high as 37% in a year!) Can it be better? Yea sure, but it seems like a logical (and heartfelt) step to take. It is for the benefit of the planet. Think about that, what Crypto can do here.

Right now BTC, Monero, etc. is just getting started but once there is a foothold you will be square in the middle of a financial revolution but don't worry, it won't go unnoticed.
We basically need something to get us through the coming years of what looks like coming Economic collapse. This might be our best chance guys and gals. We have to take money into our own hands. That is sort of like a government via expression, not one that has power over us via corruption and such.

In the future, when we decide as it is up to us, money won't be a thing of power. But till then, BTC/XMR/Crypto will help destabilize a corrupt system and allow a nice intermediary when we are ready for it.

hello world
i have a question: if i make many transactions with the same amount and same mixing in a short amount of time, it is still not possible to proof it was me, since we have stealth address, right?

All those transactions will have different ring signatures, may use completely different inputs of varying denominations, and will seemingly go to outputs that are never really "spent". The section on Temporal Association Attacks in MRL-0004 is worth reading.

https://lab.getmonero.org/pubs/MRL-0004.pdf

pg 6.

thanks guys
