This thread is insanely long. Is monero superior compared to dash and zcash?
Woah, welcome to 2016 or was it 2015? Anyway there is a thread with that exact title so try the search function.
Does the fact each transaction that's executed on both chains reveals four decoys mean that those decoys are rendered useless thereafter? Or can the same decoys be used in future transactions safely?
No you are misunderstanding. Each decoy input is SOMEONES real input. So it would only reveal that the other inputs were decoys for you not necessarily decoys for anyone else who uses them. It would reveal your real input and your decoys. So then if someone else used your real input as a decoy in the future they would have their mixin set reduced by one. So if they did a mixin 6 and it selected one of the 6 as your real input that was revealed by you spending on both chains, they would get the effect of having used mixin 5 instead.
I hope that makes sense.
As for the seriousness. It is serious. Serious in the sense that something will have to be done about it. But not serious in the sense that nothing can be done about it.
Very nice explanation +m
Hey Crypto People,
I've seen discussion about how using a unique ringsize (EG 41) is a problem for privacy.
Would it be possible to use CT/Pederson commits/range proof magical crypto stuff to hide the ringsize from everyone that doesn't need to know it?
I'm sure Confidential Ringsize is a silly idea, but would like to know exactly why.
LOL
sorry that's my bad English
I mean if anyone take a look at ONION
by the way. if it's blockchain is transparent so why they call it anonymity.
and thanks for information ^^
Because they are unconscionable liars. Scammers, if you will.
This, but the idea of the "airdrop" (sig campain for premined coins) was really a great plan for getting all the scammers to come out and shill for them. Great Marketing even if completely deceptive.
I blame fluoride.
Ah somebody throw me some merits pls? Ive been inches away from hero when the 'merit system' came in and now like fkn miles away. lol Not that it really matters but it does
cheers
Say something meritorious.
Ah now you want me to work for it? What is this generation coming to? Lol : fair enough.
edit: maybe this qualifies not because Im still fishing but because I still believe this maybe worth pondering on case of this and future forks which insist on not starting their own blockchain:
repost from reddit:
I proposed considering the implications of moving all our monero at a certain block after the fork and then donating the now monero empty but monerov 'airdropped' private keys to the development & research fund for purpose of obfuscation and dump of monerov. Not many takers to discuss at btctalk but reading a bit here and there makes me think that we could cause a lot of noise pointing to nowhere on their chain whilst having a nice dump of monerov at hand

and yes i did post this in here somewhere but the silence was deafening. Maybe it is a silly idea but my game is not game theory and cryptography and so on so I am thinking about the problem from another angle
sorry I missed the earlier post or I would have merited it then!
