I’m having trouble installing v1.0.19 on Tails. This is the command I’m using. Can anyone figure out what I’m doing wrong? It keeps saying “Failed to download Haveno binary”.

What's Changed

New Contributors

Full Changelog: 1.0.18...v1.0.19

Verification

The provided hashes can be used to verify the JAR file inside the binary, NOT the Haveno installer:

  • You can verify on Linux the jar file with:
sha256sum [PATH TO HAVENO APP]/lib/app/desktop-1.0.19-SNAPSHOT-all.jar\

The output need to match the value from the haveno-v1.0.19-linux-x86_64-SNAPSHOT-all.jar.SHA-256 file.

  • You can verify on OSX the jar file with:
shasum -a256 [PATH TO HAVENO APP]/Haveno.app/Contents/app/desktop-1.0.19-SNAPSHOT-all.jar\

The output need to match the value from the haveno-v1.0.19-macos-SNAPSHOT-all.jar.SHA-256 file.

If you want to reproduce and verify the hash of the jar file locally, you need to do so on Windows or Linux using Java 21.0.6+7.0.LTS (Adopt-Hotspot) from https://github.com/adoptium/temurin21-binaries/releases and the v1.0.19 release tag. Because of the signing and notarization process that requires the developer certificate used for the build on macOS it is not possible to create the same jar on macOS.

Can this really be done? I had always thought that the inability to transact quickly offline would severely hinder usability and thus adoption, but if Monero transactions were as easy as using GPS, then the future looks bright.

You wouldn't really be transacting offline, just that you'd always be online.

Very cool, exciting to see.

Darknet Market Maximalism with Anti Moonboy creator Xenu (MT 347)

TODAY'S 🎙SHOW: Douglas Tuman talks with xenu of The Anti-Moonboy channel. xenu shares his experience launching the Anti Moonboy channel and his series 'Attack of the Poison Outputs', which has grown to 30 episodes focusing on Monero privacy and security analysis. xenu details his entry into cryptocurrency through sports betting in 2016, initially using Bitcoin before discovering Monero. The discussion covers the current state of cryptocurrency markets, with xenu expressing skepticism about widespread adoption while emphasizing the importance of actual usage over price speculation. The conversation then shifts to dark market adoption of Monero, with xenu revealing statistics about Archetype, a Monero-only market with over 600,000 users. They discussed the evolution of cryptocurrency usage in dark markets, noting that four of the six most reputable markets are Monero-only, with the remaining two supporting both Monero and Bitcoin. They also cover technical aspects of Monero, including the upcoming full chain membership proofs update and potential future improvements to the protocol.

Hi guys! I have a question, which of these three protocols would be the best? Comparing the set of anonymity, quantum protection, protections in general, advantages and disadvantages, complexity of the code and how audited they are/will be by their communities, and final notes + summary.

Protocols: FCMP++, ZK-SNARKs (Halo2) and ZK-STARKs.

Thank you very much! Have a great day/afternoon/evening.

3D Printed Gun Designer Joseph The Parrot on Shaping the Next Steps of True Liberty (MT 346)

TODAY'S 🎙SHOW: In this episode Douglas Tuman has a discussion with 3D gun designer Joseph the Parrot about the intersection of 3D printed guns and cryptocurrency privacy. Joseph explained the origin of his persona and his entry into 3D gun printing through JStark's AR-15 CAD model and the FGC-9 (Fuck Gun Control) project. He described how the FGC-9 was designed to be manufactured with basic tools, outsourcing complex shapes to 3D printers while keeping metal parts simple. The discussion explores the philosophical parallels between Monero and 3D printed guns in fighting state monopolies. He highlighted his gun design improvements over the FGC-9, creating the first fully printable gun using no regulated parts worldwide. They also cover Joseph's upcoming presentation at MoneroKon and the importance of bridging the crypto and gun rights communities.

Growing our Monero Family w/ XMRfamily (MT 345)

The Pyramid of Power w/ Derrick Broze (MT 344)

TODAY'S 🎙SHOW: Douglas Tuman speaks with Derrick Broze about his crowd-funded "Pyramid of Power" documentary series. Derek explains that the series, which began as a 2.5-hour presentation in 2018, has evolved into a 17-part documentary exploring various power structures and institutions. Each episode aims to be easily accessible while covering complex topics like the Federal Reserve, intelligence networks, and different power groups of the past. Derek shares his approach of verifying sources and avoiding speculation, focusing on documented evidence. They also dive into contemporary issues, particularly discussing Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, and their roles in the emerging technocracy. Derek highlighted concerns about the increasing integration of private technology companies with government power, especially through projects like Palantir. The meeting concluded with a discussion about privacy tools and alternative systems, including Monero, as ways to resist centralized control.
