Is Monero's cryptonote technology quantum computer secure?

What is the threat regarding quantum computing being able to deanonimize monero users?

Nobody knows, quantum computing breaking cryptonight is least of our worries, if that happens anything we've encrypted with conventional algorithms will be broken and whole hell is break lose, bitcoin will fail, ssl will fail, everything will become plain text.

So much WTF here I can't even.  Cheesy

NSA/DOD/DEA butthurt over Monero?  Is it True?®

MEMORANDUM FOR RECORD

SUBJECT: Additional resource request for ACC project

1. 2nd Battalion's joint NSA/CPT anonymous cryptocurrency project needs additional support in the form of new hires and additional funding to meet GWOT and drug interdiction objectives outlined in July's Command update brief.
• Requesting authorization to add additional civilian consultants to the ACC project and to initiate their SCI investigations
• Requesting additional funds for class 7 and 9, amounts indicated in attached cost analysis worksheet.

2. The success we have had with Tor, I2P, and VPN cannot be replicated with those currencies that do not rely on nodes. There is a growing trend in the employment of Stealth address and ring signatures that will require additional R&D. Please reference the weekly SITREP ON SIPR for more details regarding the TTPs involved.

3. BLUF: In order to put the CPT back on track, we need to identify and employ additional personnel who are familiar with the CryptoNote code available for use in anonymous currencies.

4. Include this request for discussion at the next training meeting.


If genuine, I wonder how much taxpayer money these Deep State parasites are requesting to waste for their Great War On Technology.  Roll Eyes

Also, who the fuck names an excel spreadsheet "Hazardous Attitude?"

It would have been nice to get this attention in any other context. FluffyPony has kicked the hornet's nest, and the swarm is headed towards us. Grin

Julian Assange, please call your office....

It's probably fake, but if not, it's interesting that they don't seem panicked about the vaunted zk-SNARKs ...

Hey guys any news when the lightweight monero wallet will come out? I have heard that it will come soon.  I would need a date or an estimation?

You can download the official GUI and subsequently apply this guide:

https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/3273/how-can-i-use-monero-without-syncing-the-blockchain




Basically you're trusting the node operator for the stuff you need to send/receive transactions in exchange not to do the heavy lifting of running a full node.
Yeah you gotta undervolt those 7990s they pull a lot of power and the cooling sucks bad, it's very loud even at 50% fans

Well okay, i'll look into it.

Do you have any kind of guide for VPN ? Is it possible to route that connection through a VPN?

Monero dip drop.. less than Ƀ 0.028
why difficulty stay high Huh?? Undecided

You don't need to run the daemon and sync blocks which trash the cpu like crazy while verifying. Go to settings stop the daemon, enter node.moneroworld.com at daemon address with port 18089 and just click connect, bam lightweight monero wallet.



Dusted off 3 of my 7990's hashing coolly at 65-70C Cheesy I hope I can get my 4th one running to push +4kh/s!




1 Volt? Doesn't look like overclocking lol.

What do you mean by entering that to the demon address? Is that some kind of remote connection stuff? How does the transactions get verified this way, some kind of SPV relay? Because you do need to download bare minimum the transactions affecting your addresses in order to compute the balance.

So I really dont know what this means. I didnt know the monero client supports this kind of protocol.

Keep what's important, and know who's your friend
I've been wanting to give Monero a try for a long time but I have an issue - I need a good Electrum-like "light wallet", I can't download a large blockchain and I refuse to use web wallets. Is there any choice for me? Thanks in advance

Download GUI/CLI and connect to an open node. Here's some at moneroworld

It seems that demand of anon coins will increase in future and Monero and some other well organized will provide safe haven to those will be in need. I think ICO's days are counted and will see speedy process to limit the space for those money collectors. People ultimately will be directed to these all time tested coins.

What a run the last year from 0,50$ to 100$. And this is still the beginning.
If you've been one of those who participated in this run all the way from $0,50 to $100 it may be a good idea to secure some profits at $100+ prices and hold some additional BTC Smiley

Good point about securing your crypto profits, does anyone know of a hardware wallet that holds Monero ie: Trezor or Nano Ledger?

Until hardware wallets are are ready you might consider paper wallets using moneroaddress.org.

There are guides how to do this safely in a few places.

Man I find this thread structure hard to use Huh, come on over to Reddit, it's way more organised over there Grin

https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/

FYI most of us here find reddit structure difficult to use, I for one can never find my posts and replies and find it retarded that a bunch of shills can bump up crap while quality sinks to oblivion. I prefer a BBS top down structure where I can go back over a entire conversation just by clicking the hyperlink quotes and reading the posts around that quote for context. But I started in the 80's on BBS boards before the interwebs so that is just me. I also won't use fagbook or any other privacy invasive site. But It would be nice to see the new BCT software finally get completed.

Fair enough. For me bitcointalk feels messy. Thousands of posts, poor search functionality... I like having all my monero topics for the day/month/year out front page so that I can choose which to look at further, then see what people are saying succinctly and efficiently.

But I go to all forums and recommend we all do, to gain maximum coverage of the information out there and show support for all of us!
