"Omg coin go down, me panic"
But when the whole market is down that makes perfect sense 😄 | 2025-01-27 |
Just wanted to congratulate for all the solid work the developers are putting and appreciate all the work Gr33nHatt3R does for the reddit❤️ | 2025-01-27 |
> Chinese artificial intelligence startup DeepSeek rocked global technology stocks Monday, raising questions over America’s technological dominance.
> Buzz grew over the weekend about DeepSeek’s latest AI model being cost-effective while running on less-advanced chips, casting doubt on the validity of the rich valuations for companies like Nvidia Corp., which has led the global AI stock boom as its chips have been seen as essential to the technology.
> Shares of [Nvidia] slid 10% in premarket trading on Monday.
> Nasdaq 100 futures tumbled 3.4%, while contracts on the S&P 500 fell 2% as of 5 a.m. in New York.
> In Europe, tech stocks led market losses, with shares of chip equipment maker ASML Holding NV down 11%.
> The Cboe Volatility Index, known as the VIX, spiked higher. The Nasdaq 100 and Europe’s Stoxx 600 technology sub-index were together set for a market capitalization wipeout of roughly $1 trillion, if the losses hold.
> Roughly 200,000 Nasdaq 100 futures contracts changed hands by 4:45 a.m. New York time, about four times more than the 30-day average for this time of day, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
> AI trades slumped elsewhere as investors rethought assumptions on computing power and energy. Siemens Energy AG, one of the few AI winners in Europe, slid 20%. | 2025-01-27 |
- The party generating the proof of funds (Alice) has the wallet keys but does **not** have a copy of the Monero blockchain.
- The party verifying said proof (Bob) does **not** have the wallet keys but does have a copy of the Monero blockchain.
- Alice and Bob can communicate to any degree necessary, can sign messages for each other and whatnot, but **Alice can never give Bob her spend key.**
- Alice shouldn’t be trusted not to lie in her communications — so whatever she says should be provable by Bob using the blockchain.
Note that view keys let you see the **partial** balance, but that’s not good enough. I need to make Bob know Alice’s **current** spendable wallet balance, with cooperation from Alice, but without blindly trusting her.
Is all that even possible in Monero given its architecture? | 2025-01-27 |
# We knew this would happen
BlackRock going to end up holding a ton of bitcoin.
They already hold almost 3% of the total supply.
This may be an issue at some point, but not yet.
what you guys think? | 2025-01-27 |

As predicted, the Chinese optimized ai DeepSeek is deepthroating Nvidia today. Will sell end of day probably | 2025-01-27 |
It's just wild, the conviction of that man is commendable. But is it good for the community? | 2025-01-27 |
As we all know the market is in shambles rn. There is probably a large portion of people here who are down on their portfolios. A lot of new comers and a lot of vets of crypto. This is just a reminder to please try your best to disconnect from the charts today, it can be devastating to your well-being and mental health. Chasing loses, looking for the next big pump coin, loosing sleep, etc. Please look out for yourselves. Take a shower, go for a walk, hit the gym. Try to disconnect for a bit and come back level headed. To many horror stories of people loosing way more then they should from being emotional. Yes, it’s smart to have an exit plan for profit. It is also smart to have an exit plan in the event of a large scale loss as well. Cutting your ties with your losses, working on your peace of mind and helping you gain life lessons is part of the journey.
In conclusion, please take care of your well being. It will all be okay, please look out for yourselves🙏🏻🫶🏻❤️ | 2025-01-27 |
It’s time to go to $110 PLS | 2025-01-27 |
Do we have some info regarding the possibility to stake $TAO directly through Ledger Live like for Ethereum, Solana, Cardano, Injective, etc.?
Thank you in advance | 2025-01-27 |
Deepseek seems to be under cyber attack and has probs with new signups, preferences Chinese Mobile Numbers (vs Foreign). But it is now possible to use its token on multi SN on Bittensor

It has to be said… there are way too many posts about this.
If you fell for a honeypot, got your wallet drained, etc. trading meme coins and are complaining about it then it is your fault for investing in a largely unregulated market without doing proper research. As someone who has fallen for this trap, i can say nothing will be done about your lost money, please stop complaining about it. | 2025-01-27 |
Cuprate, the upcoming Rust-written monero node have achieved full verification sync in 20 hours. An official development update is coming soon.
[The machine that achieved this have shutdown multiple time, so we had to cut a third graph that was rendered completely broken because of the timestamp. The date is also wrong because hardcoded in the python script. ](https://preview.redd.it/cfg4n6540nfe1.png?width=1199&format=png&auto=webp&s=31ce3bf787db5555303f42b5d846e9207ede1e59)
# What's fast-sync and full verification sync
When you are booting up `monerod` to sync the blockchain from scratch, your node is doing what's called a **fast-sync**. `monerod` will download a range of block and will compare its downloaded result to a list of hashes embedded in its binary. This list is updated at every release and is easily reproducible by everyone. By doing so, `monerod` avoid the overhead of independently verifying the entire blockchain from genesis, which is a long and fastidious process. This stop once you hit the last range of blocks covered by the hash list (basically around the latest release date). If you ever wondered why monero is always much slower at syncing the top of the chain, that's why.
A **full verification sync** (`--fast-block-sync 0` argument in `monerod`) however, is doing the exact opposite, it is independently verifying and validating every blocks and transactions from scratch, no hash list involved.
# Cuprate syncing performance
This syncing method take multiple days or even a whole week for `monerod` to complete. Early results from `cuprated` have shown a 40% syncing time improvements in this method on a VPS. Later on, multiple bare-metal try have shown a full verification sync to be achievable in under 48 hours. With the same level of optimization, a threadripper machine of 64 cores have been able to achieve syncing in 27 hours.
Up to today, improvements have been made on the database, permitting a consumer level machine to fully verify and sync the blockchain in 20 hours.
For consulting early results, see this github issue: [https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/issues/195](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/issues/195) . For being aware of the current state of Cuprate, join #cuprate on IRC [libera.chat](http://libera.chat) or #cuprate:monero.social on Matrix. | 2025-01-28 |
I’m sure we will hear more about this tomorrow, yikes. Be safe out there. | 2025-01-28 |

First thing first, I come with some news. Donald Trump’s World Liberty Financial just bought another 3,350 ETH today, worth $110.6M. And they’re still buying.. literally by the minute. By the time this gets posted the total ETH bought today might be even higher. They’re accumulating during the dip, and they wouldn’t be constantly stacking up ETH in big amounts if they didn’t have big plans, or weren’t bullish on it.
In case you're curious, right now World Liberty Financial holds:
* 59,432 ETH
* 646,715 WBTC (on Ethereum)
* 19,408 STETH (staked on Lido)
* 256,315 LINK
* 19,399 AAVE
* 5.78M ENA
* Over $47.52M in stablecoins
* And more...
Their total crypto holdings are over $391.3M, and the fact that they have millions in stablecoins is a signal they’re ready to buy even more. Meanwhile, shrimps on the internet are panic selling ETH for cheap, and WLFi is happily buying what they sell. Corporations don’t buy in bulk like this without a plan, something big is coming and they probably know something we don’t.
Luckily we can use blockchain transparency to our advantage. We can watch their wallets and corporative/whale wallets and track their movements. If we want to understand what’s actually happening in the market, we have to follow the money. And money is flowing straight into Ethereum.

Alight so this is coming from a noobie in crypto, never interested until a few months ago. I noticed Ethereum Classic with Robinhood and have been hooked on this crypto. I don't have faith in any long term coins expect this one, and that is because Ethereum Classic hasn't really had any major spikes yet and am expecting one any time soon. So now to my big boi question. I noticed the highest pike was about close to $200, so I check ETH to see if it also matches with that highest pike, but it didn't. I thought that this crypto ETC was a spinoff off of ETH, and it should match right? And why did ETC bounce so high, what news made it jump like that? And should we expect anything like that? I am planning on throwing thousands on this crypto depending on the next upcoming months. | 2025-01-28 |
By rooting trust in the silicon of next-generation hardware from NVIDIA and Intel, Verifiable Compute sets a new standard for AI security and innovation. The framework is the culmination of two years of intensive research, with input and support from the Hedera ecosystem at key stages. It introduces a hardware-based [SLSA Security Level 3](https://slsa.dev/spec/v0.1/levels) system for creating cryptographic certificates to govern and audit AI workflows, all anchored in the immutable and transparent history that the Hedera network uniquely enables.
Verifiable Compute leverages advanced cryptography to protect and control AI data, models, and agents, transforming how organizations enforce AI governance and automate auditing. The solution introduces a hardware-based cryptographic AI notary and certificate system, ensuring explainability, accountability, and security of AI training, inference, and benchmarking at runtime. This can isolate sensitive AI operations and create tamper-proof records of every data object and code computed in AI training and inference.
The framework leverages the [Hedera Consensus Service](https://hedera.com/consensus-service) to create an immutable ledger of AI computations, harnessing the transparency and trust of Web3 to set a new standard for enterprise AI governance. By anchoring AI trust directly in silicon and extending it to the Hedera network, this solution provides a tangible use case that demonstrates the power of Web3 in enhancing AI security, transparency, and compliance.
EQTY Lab collaborated with a dozen government agencies across EMEA to develop Verifiable Compute, ensuring the solution aligns with emerging AI regulations across the globe, like the EU AI Act. The UAE's AI government and regulators, known for their Web3-forward approach, supported the verifiable compute R&D as early as June 2023 through a collaboration with EQTY Lab and Hedera to release the [ClimateGPT Model](http://www.eci.io/). This collaborative effort has resulted in a solution that meets the stringent requirements of enterprises, who will have to ensure that their AI applications and usage comply with a quickly growing patchwork of global regulations.

What’s the difference between eth and etc. Isn’t etc a dead abandoned or antiquated protocol? Is it worth buying still. I have some stored in cold storage should I add? | 2025-01-28 |
Let’s call it what it is.
Household debt is the highest it’s ever been. Wages haven’t moved. Everything gets more expensive. Trump is trying to start WW3 every single way he possibly can. Americans are broke and scared. Every single morning when the US comes online the sell pressure skyrockets.
Everyone is scared to invest in this asset class right now and it’s showing. We have a mountain of bullish news and the market can’t get ahead because of all the uncertainty America is causing the world right now. Markets don’t like uncertainty they like visibility. Trump is ruining the markets and he’s going to make Americans even more broke than they already are. | 2025-01-28 |

With purchasing xmr, the buyer and seller make a deposit as a way to help ensure fair play between the two.
Let’s say buyer sends cash through the mail and make a deposit. Video tapes himself doing so to have proof just in case.
Seller receives cash but claims they never did. Arbitrator sides with the buyer because of the video proof of packing and delivering to post. Buyer receives his deposit back and the deposit that was the sellers. Now here’s the question if let’s say he was buying $1000 xmr and the deposit were both set in 25% meaning there are a total of $500 dollars in deposits. Would the buyer just be out of his $1000 he sent or would he get back both deposits and the coins he was trying to gain from the start? | 2025-01-28 |
Can someone explain to me wtf just happened?
I launched a coin on pump with 3,5% supply as dev. Dipped in for 0.5% from a different wallet but that's it. Tied it up with a project I worked real hard on.
Within 20 seconds of launching it reached koth. 40 seconds, bonded.
I didn't know what to do... 4000 views on the site in those 40 seconds.
The second it bonded it dumped, hard. Way down to like 4.5k instantly which I would think is impossible even?
Later while reviewing, it seems one or two guys came in with 5,6 SOL each right after I did and just drained the whole supply the second it bonded.
Some people are still holding but it's a token with an X, a site, and just a huge red line.
I tried to ask people from tg what happened but I get blocked immediately and called a rugger.
What the hell happened here, and how do I avoid it?
I launched some tokens before which made it quite far but I never had this happen. Was I lucky?

Is there a better marketplace out there? Please let me know. I’ve been slowly buying on Robinhood but also found out about different places like Kraken and Coinbase. | 2025-01-29 |
I have been seeing lots of fear mongering and dramatic posts in here these last few days. As someone who has been in the market since 2017, let me give you a little game.
Your money is made in the red. You make money when you buy low. This is not a bearish market, this is not a crash, this is not even bleeding. Bleeding is when you see 20-30% drops throughout. This is barely a mild correction.
Be patient, load your bags. And HODL.
If you can’t ride this dip, maybe crypto isn’t for you. Be patient, and NEVER TRADE ON EMOTION. remove all emotions and you will be fine. | 2025-01-29 |
How will it affect the block time and the miners? Would it take longer to confirm a transaction and miners will have a harder difficulty to mine? | 2025-01-29 |
Hi, on 18th January I used trocador to exchange my BTC worth $2300+ at the time to USDT. The first platform suggested on trocador for the exchange was [easybit.com](http://easybit.com) . After transferring the BTC to the address required, I was notified that the transaction was halted. After days of reaching out to their support and email, I was required to send multiple proofs of the source and wallet ownership which I assisted completely. However after completing what they required, easybit told me that they will take more time and that there is a chance the fund will never be refunded back to me. I have never dealt with such cases before, can anyone tell me what I can do to get my fund back? Or is it gone forever? It has now been 12 days since the transaction was halted.
Update: I have gotten the refund after 14 days, big thumbs up to trocador support team for helping me with the refund. | 2025-01-29 |

I made my Bittensor wallet last year and deleted the wallet after depositing my TAO in it. Now I went to open it. I'm missing 1 word of the seed phrase! And I don't know which order of the word is missing. Is this solvable? | 2025-01-29 |
Is there a way to cleanup (delete) old / unused subaddresses in the wallet?
In the same wallet, I have multiple accounts with multiple subaddresses. However once I add a new subaddress, even if it is unused, there is no way for me to delete it.
They do not bother, and they are not a problem, but it does look ugly / unclean to me, since I have no use for those subaddresses.
Is there a way to delete them? | 2025-01-29 |
Hello. I want to make payment on Subscribestar, but unfortunately I live in a sanctioned country and there is only card payment available by Author. I know that crypto payment is not allowed for some reason, so I guess prepaid cards are my best option. There are many card providers, I would like to use Monero directly, so Cakepay is probably my best option, maybe?
I would like to ask for help or suggestions, maybe someone has used prepaid cards to make purchase on Subscribestar? I have some questions:
• Subscribestar requires state and ZIP code input upon US card option selected. Do US prepaid cards have this info, or I'll need to fake it?
• Will Subscribestar actually accept my virtual card from Cakepay?
• While ordering a Cakepay card, there is a warning considering VPN/Tor users may be blocked from acquiring the card. Is it there just for a show, or my money will really go to nothing if I make a Monero transaction to Cakepay while making that order from Tor?
• Could Subscribestar request KYC on my payment?
• Do I need to order card on amount more than purchase itself to cover transaction fees? IDK if there will be ones, but probably I'll had to give around 1% upon transaction?
Sorry if it's offtop, idk popular places to ask such things. | 2025-01-29 |
Dot being bought is burned, meaning more projects buying coretime decreases the total amount of dot tokens, which effectively increases the value of each dot token.
This is opposite from the auction model, where dot was only locked up for a period of 6 months to 2 years, when the period is over sell pressure would reduce dot's price by projects selling their unlocked dots.
Is this correct? | 2025-01-29 |
Full disclosure I do own XRP. However, I personally I do not favor what I believe is Ripple Labs current strategy.
The idea that Ripple is working to get their assets included in any potential Federal crypto reserve makes sense for them as a private business. However I believe they are looking at that is step one in trying to position themselves as essentially a crypto FED.
As including the assets that Ripple Labs controls (and still owns huge portions of the float) would give them unprecedented control over a major asset of the Federal Government, to the point of giving them leverage over future crypto related policy choices. As this marriage would cement the dynamic of As goes Ripple so goes the quality of the Federal crypto reserves.
I do not believe one company should have this power, I see no benefit for the US, or it’s citizens, other than the price run up in whatever Ripple Labs asset gets included in a crypto reserve.
I believe this power Ripple
would gain would result in a future “power check” by. A future administration and my hypothesis is that Ripple Labs would become a crypto FED, at a great cost to US tax payers.
Any thoughts on this from the world’s most relevant crypto community?

At $4-something per coin, Filecoin has lost more than 99% of it's all time high. Will it ever bounce back? I think not. What's going on here? Looks like Filecoin is a kind of ponzi scheme. These should be **big red flags** for anyone considering investing in Filecoin:
* You can't use Filecoin in the real world. They'll tell you that to store data on IPFS you need a lot of it, and you need to invest in Filecoin. Any rewards you reap will trickle down from that initial investment - classical **Ponzi scheme**. Compare with Amazon, Google and others for ease of storage.
* There are no real world case scenarios of Filecoin being used by any company or organization: giving [Archive.org](http://Archive.org) 50,000 Filecoins credits to try it out, doesn't mean it's being used outside of the trial period.
* The Filecoin companies in China ran a **pyramid scam scheme**, and founders were actually imprisoned.
* Filecoin development APIs do not work and haven't been updated in years on GitHub.
* Filecoin Foundation advertises a lot of similar-looking websites, touting them as if they are doing something Filecoin-related that moves things forward. They all appear to be **fake storefronts**.
* The idea behind Filecoin is nothing that hasn't been done already: take P2P sharing and Torrents. Same candy. Just that these actually work, unlike Filecoin.
Filecoin has failed. | 2025-01-29 |
Data redundancy:
By having multiple copies spread across the network, Filecoin mitigates the risk of data loss if one provider experiences issues.
It's written the client chosen how many copies he wishes to create. But what is the standard minimum ?
I'm asking this because 25 EiB of available storage might get filled by 10EiB of client data.
Also does filecoin break client data into several encrypted pieces & spreads it across different storage providers ?
Then it creates multiple copies & again spreads it.
Thanks for answering 🙂 | 2025-01-29 |
We're going to wreck the 🌈🐻 so hard tonight!

I don't really get it.
So, let's take ETH as an example. It's currently at $3219 / £2500.
Even if it goes up to $3700 / £3000, which it hasn't been for a month and that's only a little bit below ATH, then I'll have made 20% profits, before fees.
If I invest £250, I'll have made £50 before fees if ETH increases to near ATH.
If I invest £1000, I'll have made £200, and I have to wait for ETH to increase so much to even get to that place.
It's the same for other coins.
XRP is currently £2.41 / $3.00. Everyone tells me to buy because we're in a dip. The ATH was £2.84. So, if i invest £1000, I'll make £150 profit before fees if it goes back up to ATH. That's a tiny amount.
I can only assume people are expecting a lot of coins to go significantly higher than ATH - because at the moment, there's no coins that's worth buying because they'd have to increase a lot to earn tiny profits.
Yet I hear a lot of stories of people making a lot of money when prices increase.
How?
Are they just investing hundreds of thousands? | 2025-01-29 |
Interesting I thought ICP was the choice. | 2025-01-29 |

How is anyone supposed to fight farmers, ruggers, bundlers, all of the above if EVERY LAUNCH is bundled, front-run, farmed by bots.
it's starting to feel like this chain is dead internet theory with nothing but bots and the low transaction fees make it impossible for us to ever reach a better state.
Now we are onboarding hundreds of millions of dollars from US politics / chill guy and tiktok, yet we all agree to just give it to the rich guys who have the best nodes for mev botting / farming.
Genuinely, I don't see this getting any better, only worse from here, considering every day someone new is getting their hands on a bundler/rug script.
I want your thoughts and opinions. Is a network flooded with nothing but arbitration and bots is going to end up useless to anyone other than the bot owners?
Solana will be a 96% robot pvp chain in the next 3 years especially with how rapidly ai agents are growing. | 2025-01-29 |

you havent lost if you havent sold at 30% less. so just dont sell yet.
if you dont trust the project and dont want to wait for the ups dont buy at all in the first place and you will live a worry free life. | 2025-01-29 |

Two different projects. ICP can be used for storage as all crypto can but it does not have the data Storage space like Filecoin. Filecoin was built as a Decentralized data Cloud storage network. ICP can not store AI Data because it was not built for that, not enough space. | 2025-01-29 |
It says Filecoin preserved forever. It is onboarding data. | 2025-01-29 |
Source ? | 2025-01-29 |
many strong projects have the same issue, but there is still time for all of them | 2025-01-29 |
I initially invested because I believed in the concept I saw value in the project. Now I feel as though my trust has somewhat eroded in the project as it’s dropped substantially since investing, I’m reading comments that it’s a scam and that’s there’s no legitimate users of filecoin. The whole market isn’t down as both my XCN and XRP (both invested in a couple of months ago have skyrocketed) and stayed high and never dipped close to going below my initial investment. Whilst all filecoin has done is go backward I’m skeptical, I’m holding but I’m skeptical and I’m happy I didn’t invest anymore then what I did. | 2025-01-29 |
I have an option in my wallet for ethereum classic tokens. Is there a list of these or is this even possible? Thanks id like to buy some. | 2025-01-29 |
Is it scary for me to buy a couple thousand worth, or should I see for myself fir | 2025-01-29 |
IDK. I would stay away from the coin myself considering the above factors.
People are free to invest on anything, though, even meme coins. But if you're serious about ROI, it would be another matter entirely. | 2025-01-29 |
Yeah, if a scammer does a scam using Ethereum, it doesn’t implicate ETH as evil. Same thing for any network. Heck, PayPal is much closer to “evil” but PayPal the scams are not run by the people behind PayPal, lol. | 2025-01-30 |
So why are you here? | 2025-01-30 |
Hey Monero community,
I’ve been using P2P platforms to buy and sell XMR, but I’m increasingly worried about the risks involved. Recently, I had a situation where a buyer attempted to reverse a bank transfer after the trade was completed. It seems like they may have been scammed themselves and then tried to recover their money, which put me in a risky position.
This made me realize how easily my bank account could get flagged or even frozen if something like this happens again. For those of you who use P2P methods to on/off-ramp Monero, how do you protect yourself from fraud, chargebacks, or receiving illicit funds? Are there specific precautions you take?
Would appreciate any advice or strategies to minimize these risks. Thanks! | 2025-01-30 |
I created my first coins as a noob just to see how easy it was and they instantly got hit by what i can assume are botted snipers. I bought a few $ worth and instantly hit with 1.6ish sol just to be dumped minutes later lol. I was just curious after looking at that straight mind fuck website, Is it 90% bots, like both buyers and coin creators? Do these coins have elaborate bots to pump it into photon/raydium? or do regular people actually buy coins on there hoping it to go far? Every coin just looked like garbage. What an insane marketplace and world we living in tbh | 2025-01-30 |
I recently launched my own token on Pump.fun (yes, I am part of the problem :p) to experiment with crowdfunding for a documentary project I’m working on. It got me thinking—why do so many people dismiss the platform as just a pump-and-dump machine? of course that is what it is currently being used for...but it could also be used for legit use cases, ignoring the desperate pump and dumpers.
Could a platform like pump.fun be a real tool for raising funds? If you're upfront to your fans about holding a token and using profits to build something valuable, is that really a rug? Or is it just a way for early supporters and the creator to actually benefit?
Think about a small music band. I used to follow obscure artists—some blew up, some didn’t, but supporting them felt meaningful either way. Wouldn’t it be cool if you could invest in a band early and see your stake grow as they did? Even if you never cashed out, you'd still be part of something bigger.
I truly think people are missing something here. After using Pump.fun myself, I see how it could be a powerful way to fund creative projects. (My main contention being - If your community supports you, why would you ever want to rug them?)
Curious ... Am I off base, or is there potential here?
I am considering using it as a way to support my documentary making on Youtube, because it is very costly to make them - I feel like it could be a good alternative beyond Patreon - But I wanted to get actual feedback from people who are closer/more knowledgeable than I am. | 2025-01-30 |

Us senator john cornyn created a memecoin and promoted it on X, and then proceeded to rugpull it. What a joke of an government | 2025-01-30 |
In November of 2015 I was laying in bed browsing the Internet. Something piqued my interest and I setup a Coinbase account and bought 1/3 of a coin, which at the time was trading for about $375 a coin. I then went to bed, woke up the next day, and never even thought of that again ...until last month. When trying to buy something that required crypto I went to setup a Coinbase account. It said my email was already registered, so I went through the process to get logged in. Low and behold ...there sat $34,243.10 in my asset account! I couldn't believe it...the questions that rolled through my brain...is this real....how had I completely forgotten about this...why didn't I buy a whole coin, or two...
Anything like that ever happened to you?
What should I do now?

Do you agree?
Edit: For those of you asking if I’m new, I am new to meme coins. I’ve never seen any value. I am not new to crypto.
I’ve been in bitcoin since 2012 or so. I bought in because I worked as a cyber security engineer on an early ransomeware case. I ended up buying bitcoin to pay the ransom by meeting a guy off Craigslist to buy a few bitcoin to pay the ransom. Since I didn’t want to have to do this in the future I bought a few to hold as well. Not because I was investing in some crypto but because people have been hacking for years for fee, bitcoin allowed them to get paid. I saw that as a huge reason for a need of bitcoin. So while I didn’t think it would go up as much as it I’d, I certainly didn’t think it was going to go down so I felt ok buying a few thousand dollars worth (luckily I forgot about it and sold a few years later for an insane amount of money).
This is not what meme coins are. They’re not adding a new value. Eth added smart contracts that’s valuable. Solana added speed that’s also valuable.
What exactly do meme coins add? | 2025-01-30 |

Hey everyone
I started gaining interesst in monero. I really like the concept of it.
As I looked more into it I found out you can still kinda track monero by trading it over malicious nodes. So it's best to run your own node. I also found out that you should trade new monero first in to a "throw away" wallet before transfering it into your main wallet.
Now I have some questions:
Whats the difference between a prune node and a full node and do I need a full node to be safe?
Can I have my throw away wallet on the same node or is the security aspect of having a second wallet obsolete through that?
I hope I don't get bashed here for asking some beginner questions :)
Thanks | 2025-01-30 |
I have been interested in getting more solana. Currently I have Sol from trading memes. I have been doing my own research and understanding what it is and I cannot find any use cases of it other than memes, is that all solana is for?
Thanks in advance | 2025-01-30 |
I sent about 5$ of POL to Solana on phantom and only got about 0.85$… why did this happen? Thanks for the help

More power to your elbow! Exciting times. | 2025-01-30 |
Following.... | 2025-01-30 |
Intel reports its earnings today after the bell, and I am certain that the price will pump like last time.
I made a post last quarter predicting Intel would go up after earnings. My reasoning for this play was that the CEO at the time (Pat Gelsinger), was very active on X dropping bible quotes every day. You could just see the desperation in his tweets, and on the day he released the earnings report, God saved Intel, and nana smiled from heaven.
But just because Intel got revived, doesn’t take away the fact that Pastor Pat was a trash CEO. So he resigned (got fired) on December 1st and got replaced by these two:
[David, who has been the CFO of Intel since 2022, and Michelle, who I have no fucking clue where she worked prior to becoming co-CEO](https://preview.redd.it/bunyel1q16ge1.png?width=670&format=png&auto=webp&s=d3743dc87784b3e4dccabc00fb6b17691d7f5cc2)
In the past few days I tried using the same sophisticated due diligence model (scrolling their X page), but these two have a whopping combined.... 9 tweets since they became CEOs. They mostly consist of announcements written by their marketing-interns, so not that exciting.
Now look, Michelle seems like a nice lady, but we all know who is really calling the shots at Intel here. Today's earnings report will cover the period from October 1 to December 31. I know, David became CEO on December 2nd, but do you really think Pastor Pat just woke up one day and decided he wanted to step down? No, they had been preparing David for months.
But before I even scrolled through his X page, I saw something that could give all of us degens an edge over the fancy new york algorithmic quant funds:
[bro is a steelers fan](https://preview.redd.it/3bpeofcx16ge1.jpg?width=392&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8f1ca91905e2ea1a7dd44115f22fe4648ea5edc0)
So I did some research, David has been responsible for restructuring the company and shaping a better future so Intel can make a comeback. I would say he has been in charge of Intel for at LEAST 2 months before Pastor Pat resigned.
There is clear research out there suggesting that there's a correlation between the success of your favorite NFL team and your performance in the workplace. What more of a DD do you need when looking at the performance of the Steelers during this period?
https://preview.redd.it/ttiwk54x16ge1.png?width=1094&format=png&auto=webp&s=c6d91e92b59499b4e2af39277a4f1a92e8c204e9
Mfs have won 10 out of their first 13 games. I bet David's dopamine levels have never been higher, he’s more energized, more optimistic, more productive, and more motivated, and ALL THAT BIG D ENERGY spread throughout the whole company. David had to get the ball rolling. They WILL perform today.
Expectations are still low. They’re down 15% since last earnings. No one expects them to win, and who doesn’t like to root for the underdog?? Expect green fucking dildo's after the close

I'm not sure why they posted that today if it happened a year ago, but still, it's a reminder to be careful about the tools you use. Don't play more than you can afford to lose because sh\*t can happen anytime

BIP-39 is [2048 words](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0039/english.txt) and the sole missing word can be in any placement (across 24 words).
So it's basically just 24 * 2048 = 49,152 combos
Quickly becomes exponentially more difficult / infeasible as you add more missing words | 2025-01-30 |
Hello everyone, not long ago I made [this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/1hwg1yj/comment/m63gmjo/) here about opening up a hotel soon. Well, now it's open and we're more than happy to host you and accept XMR as a payment. Hotel is located in Georgia's part of The Greater Caucasus mountain range.
It's a small family-run hotel with 9 rooms total, but for now only 4 of them are being rented out. It's a 3-story building with a quite large fenced yard. Construction started early 2022 and finished in December 2024. There's free parking in the fenced yard.
Of course, being able to pay with Monero can't be the only reason someone would want to visit someplace, fortunately we've got some attractions around here, you can check them out here: [https://www.agrekazbegi.com/kazbegi-attractions.html](https://www.agrekazbegi.com/kazbegi-attractions.html)
If you want to check prices, go to [https://www.agrekazbegi.com/](https://www.agrekazbegi.com/) to choose a room and dates, then click "Book Now".
I think anyone that decides to visit us based on this post would in large part be coming for the opportunity to pay for goods and services in Monero so I feel a bit more responsible for ensuring that such guests fully enjoy their stay without much worry about anything else, for this reason I'm offering a package that includes dinner & tours to attractions around here. Which attractions you'd visit depends on your preferred length of stay, it takes 3 days to visit all of them:
Day 1: Gergeti Trinity Church, Dariali Monastery Complex & Gveleti Waterfall
Day 2: Juta
Day 3: Truso Gorge (this is the one that takes most time, you have to cross rivers on a car)
So you'd enjoy your breakfast in the morning, then go visit those attractions, come back, enjoy your dinner and have a lovely evening. I'll also give you some Georgian snacks to enjoy while on the trip (see Churchkhela & Gozinaki) :-)
Needless to say, it's up to you which one you choose, you can just pay for the accommodation (which includes breakfast) and manage visiting attractions on your own. Also, if you do choose to visit those attractions, you can choose any combination of them, it's not necessary to visit all of them, although it's highly recommended.
If you want to book some nights, just send me a message on here with dates that you wish to book. We are offering 15% discount on accommodation for anyone who pays in Monero. There's absolutely no KYC, I'll just give you a QR code that you're supposed to present at check-in, that's all you need to get your keys and room, although I'd like to know my guest's name to have something to address them by in person, it's not a requirement either. We also provide guests with breakfast buffet which is included in the price. I take 10% of the whole price (10% of the accommodation) beforehand as sort of a deposit, which is fully refundable if you cancel while there's 7 days or more left before the check-in date - then, you pay remaining 90% at check-in, based on whatever USD/XMR exchange rate will be at the time of check-in. Here we speak fluent English, Russian & Georgian. Let me know if you have any additional questions, I'm new to this and might have missed some information. | 2025-01-30 |
I first joined the 7-figure club back in October when $BABA crossed the $100 mark. It went to almost $120 and dropped back to $80. Now is the second time, let’s see what the future holds. 🤞 | 2025-01-30 |
This is very sad Elon prefers support Doge instead of support BCH
He knows that BCH is far superior but prefers to support Doge and BTC. In my eyes he betrays the original vision of Satoshi Nakamoto... I really like his whimsical side but I realize that he is not the white knight on all subjects... money makes you blind, they say... | 2025-01-30 |
This morning I put in an order to buy $50 of XEN on the Polygon network. I received over 250 billion coins worth over $47,000. I panicked for second, thinking I accidentally bought more than I wanted and check the blockchain transaction. No, I really spent like $40 something dollars and my coinbase wallet was showing me $47,000 of coins.
Problem is I’ve tried transferring to a stable coin to cash out, I’ve tried swapping it for another coin, bridging it to another network. Every time I try to move it, the value reverts back to what it would’ve been if I had bought $50. I’ve even tried to send $500 of these coins to a friend and it shows up in their wallet as a fraction ($0.11) of the coins my wallet is showing me I sent.
I had an extra $14 worth of Polygon hanging out in my wallet so I bought more XEN. It added another $12,000 to my wallet.
How can I capitalize on this and keep the value of bag? | 2025-01-30 |
Will I be able to use a debit card and just send USD? If I have to buy USDT or something through a CEX then I'd rather just have privacy and go through Haveno. It's pretty obvious where my money is going if my bank just sees me repeatedly buying USDT only for it to seemingly disappear. | 2025-01-30 |

What is going to happen to the actual subnets token? | 2025-01-31 |
what “subnet token “ ? there will only be Dtao for each subnet - everything else are just Memes | 2025-01-31 |
Do we as dtao holders have to review each subnet on a monthly basis and reallocate to more successful nodes? Or just keep in the one subnet we think will be most succcessful in a couple years? I guess that’s more strategic. I think I answered my own question. lol. The answer would be do what I want if I think one will be successful over time keep my dtao with that subnet. Otherwise disperse and or invest in a few that appear to be successful. I just don’t want I have to check all the time but I bet I do because I like what Bittensor is doing. | 2025-01-31 |
lol - yes correct - u answered it
i guess there is quite some homework and checking involved to be full on Dtao and keeping that all on track. specially in the beginning, i guess over time more and more tools will be build to make it easier for the community to get a full picture or what and who is what …
const commented as well NOT to rush into it, stake on root, use those returns to venture into Dtao, do not fomo into this (there might be quite some price fluctuation of Dtao in certain SNs so … better take it easy) | 2025-01-31 |
I appreciate the info. I was tempted to sell my ethereum for more Tao root and wait until
Dtao took hold. . I may just wait on that and keep ethereum. Take care and thanks again for the insight. | 2025-01-31 |
? there is no investment advice in my message !! Tao will always be Tao !! Dtao is ONLY for subnet validating ! this will not be traded on CExs and such, OTF is building a DEX where Tao - Dtao will happen - but each subnet will have its own Dtao price ( Dtao - tao) so this is not a “trading coin”, this is internal Bittensor stuff only !! do not get mixed up here !! | 2025-01-31 |
I understand. | 2025-01-31 |
There will likely be tools that fast follow dTAO that help regulate staking into subnets. For instance, setting swaps orders at a specific dTAO : TAO rate so you can take profits in TAO when appropriate. | 2025-01-31 |

Unfortunately (or fortunately), it’s too much of a cash cow for them. I’m sure they’ll settle out of court and start adding better disclaimers and regulation to protect themselves. The fun will never stop at everyone’s peril.

This is the weekly Monero market thread. This thread will be posted every Friday and is meant to help accelerate the adoption of Monero. Due to r/moneromarket having only a fraction of the subscribers of r/Monero, we have decided to create this thread to encourage more individuals to use Monero for product exchanges. Until the market matures, we recommend that the Monero community post their products both in this thread and on r/moneromarket (to ensure growth of that subreddit).
Selling items for Monero will boost your (and Monero's) reputation as a legitimate form of exchange of goods. This is necessary for the growth of Monero, our community, and privacy as a whole.
## Instructions
When you post your product or job listing here, please make sure to:
- Give a description of the item.
- Link to a photo of the item (if it's physical).
- Provide logistics information (such as, location and/or shipping availability).
- Optionally, provide an additional (private) form of communication outside of Reddit (e.g. Bitmessage, u/protonmail, u/tutanota, GPG key).
- Post the price in XMR terms.
Spamming will not be tolerated. Please make sure that listings are legitimate and do not break rule 2."
