According to a release, this allows users to trade XMR for BTC without having to trust a third-party or intermediary (or even the trading counterparty). Users are able to seamlessly conduct trades globally without using a “regulated” financial institution.

The XMR digital currency is well-known for its private and fungible properties. Unlike other crypto-assets, the Monero protocol hides the sender, receiver, and amount for all transfers. This allows its privacy protections to expand to cover more transactions than are “involved in Bitcoin mixing, Ethereum mixing, and all other ‘privacy coins’ combined.”

Monero is the “recognized global standard” in private digital payments, the release noted.

Accessing Libera.Chat Via Tor

Libera.Chat is also reachable via Tor, bound to some restrictions. You can’t directly connect to irc.libera.chat via Tor; use the following hidden service as the server address instead:

libera75jm6of4wxpxt4aynol3xjmbtxgfyjpu34ss4d7r7q2v5zrpyd.onion

The hidden service requires SASL authentication. In addition, due to abuse we have seen across other networks in the past, we have unfortunately had to add another couple of restrictions:

    You must log in using SASL EXTERNAL or ECDSA-NIST256P-CHALLENGE (more below)
    If you log out while connected via Tor, you will not be able to log in without reconnecting.

If you haven’t set up the requisite SASL authentication, we recommend SASL EXTERNAL. You’ll need to generate a client certificate and add that to your NickServ account. We describe how to in detail under our guide on setting up CertFP.

Connecting using SASL EXTERNAL requires that you connect using TLS encryption.

You’ll then want to tell your client to try the EXTERNAL mechanism. We lack comprehensive documentation for this, but it’s a feature in most modern clients, so please check their docs for instructions for now.
Verifying Tor TLS connections

A Tor hidden service name securely identifies the service you are connecting to. Verifying the TLS server certificate is strictly-speaking unnecessary while using the hidden service. Nonetheless you may verify the hidden service’s TLS server certificate by adding the following fragment to your torrc configuration file and configure your client to connect to palladium.libera.chat via Tor. The TLS server certificate used by the hidden service will validate using this hostname.

# torrc snippet:
MapAddress palladium.libera.chat libera75jm6of4wxpxt4aynol3xjmbtxgfyjpu34ss4d7r7q2v5zrpyd.onion

Older clients that don’t support SOCKS4a or later will need to use MapAddress with an IP address, and the certificate will not validate successfully. In this case validation will need to be disabled.

Note that the hidden service’s certificate changes periodically as it is updated. This means that the certificate fingerprint can not be reliably pinned.

We need more and better dex exchanges for Monero and other coins.

Is there any other active Monero forum other than bitcointalk with active community and conversation, not counting Monero reddit?

I don't know whats happenng with monero exchanges like Binance but it very much looks like some manipulation, withdrawals was not working and some people still report issues.

Back from crypto hiatus , glad to see Monero has progressed. Whats up with the news? Is it worth the wait ? because I still got some on my exchanges I have not touch for a while.

Hi, I'm trying to compile Monero from source in Ubuntu 20.04, but I got this: " Submodule 'external/miniupnp' is not up-to-date.", and after typing "git submodule update --init --force", I got this: "fatal: remote error: upload-pack: not our ref xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

Is there any workaround? Thanks in advance.
Cheers.
