You know Haveno isn't decentralized same way as Monero network.

Everyone can participate mining, run node, make transactions.

But not everyone can be arbitrator or do work for the network, trades require 2/3 multi-signature which means security deposits can be stolen, there's no DAO which means decision making is centralized.

I believe different networks filling the gap caused by lack of DAO system.

the certificate isn’t valid for dawnswap.com. The certificate is only valid for: *.github.io, *.github.com, *.githubusercontent.com, github.com, github.io, githubusercontent.com, www.github.com.

Cashfusion isn't same level with Monero

you have to coinjoin a few times and the actual spending. Which causes you to do few TX instead of one.

  • which takes more time than Monero.
  • more bandwidth (+storage if unprunned node)

however its still true BCH has better scalability than XMR. Especially better pruning options.

they're Bitcoin maximalist

 

Antidarknet team who previously spammed Monero network and called it 0day got hacked by a Dread forum member after attempting to "destroy" darknet.

More details can be found from Dread post

For BTC/BCH; you can spend unconfirmed coins unlike Monero. However its fairer to compare Coinjoin vs Monero; Coinjoining often takes longer than 20 minutes.

You can have multiple outputs to mitigate problem like using pocket change as you said and also you can pay to multiple addresses at the same time.

JShelter for anti-fingerprinting, it should reset your fingerprint ID everytime you start the browser.

The point is Monero works as intended, no one can stop or block you because of social norms. That's often what is celebrated.

Payment processors imposes a lot restriction on pornography sector, same thing happened to such as pornhub before.

Yes there's much higher transaction volume, you can choose pay higher fees to speed up.

There's no problem with Haveno or Retoswap's wallet. The research shows about trades between Bitcoin and Monero.

Fiat trades are fine.

Yes, that's not new. Someone can figure out if your bitcoins are originating from bisq (or haveno).

New research paper about HavenoDex shows trades between Monero and Bitcoin are traceable.

Abstract:

...We further identify and report on a privacy vulnerability in the recently popularized Haveno exchange, demonstrating that certain Haveno trades could be detected, allowing transactions to be linked across the Monero and Bitcoin blockchains.

 

The Monero community is excited to announce the launch of the FCMP++ (Full-Chain Membership Proofs) Optimization Coding Competition!

See all contest details here.

What is FCMP++?

FCMP++ is one of the most significant privacy enhancements to Monero since its inception. This upgrade would improve sender-privacy from 1 in 16 to 1 in over 150 million while maintaining compatibility with existing wallets and addresses!

About the Competition

We're looking to optimize the performance of two critical libraries used in FCMP++ (helioselene and ec-divisors). This is your chance to make a direct contribution to Monero's future while competing for 350xmr (~$100,000 at time of writing) in rewards and global recognition.

Competition Details

  • Timeline: Competition runs from April 28th to June 30th, 2025
  • Focus Area: elliptic curve arithmetic
  • Submission Requirements: detailed here
  • Judging Criteria: Speed improvement, code quality, and maintainability

How to Enter

  1. Review the competition details and rules at: https://github.com/j-berman/fcmp-plus-plus-optimization-competition
  2. Clone the repository and familiarize yourself with the codebase
  3. Submit your optimized implementation according to the guidelines in the README

The regulation is part of a broader AML framework that includes bank and payment accounts, passbooks and safe-deposit boxes, “crypto-asset accounts allowing anonymisation of transactions,” and “accounts using anonymity-enhancing coins.”

Have you tried v1.1.0 ?

 

Just a week ago we found out that they were scamming people by not allowing withdrawals while allowing trading (AKA paper Monero).

Hi everyone, we're updating user guides on getmonero.org however we don't have IOS device to take screenshot to update the outdated screenshots. So I'm looking for volunteer for updating this guide.

The task:

  1. Download Matrix messenger called Element
  2. Open the app and take a screenshot
  3. Click on register and follow this guide but use monero.social instead of https://matrix.monero.social
  4. Take another screenshot and send to me (or us).

Then we will use screenshot(s) for the guide.

Relevant git issue

If you have questions feel free to ask.

 

Currently there are only 1 public node that is on I2P: https://monero.fail/?chain=monero&network=mainnet&i2p=on

 

With this release auto fee selection algorithm is fixed.

Hi, I'm looking a privacy friendly e-mail provider that accepts Monero. Most are accepting credit card only which looks suspicious to me. Thanks.
