In line with the new website design currently in progress, we’ve created an updated version of the “What is Monero?” video. We’ve kept the original script but made some factual updates. If approved, the plan is to create a light mode version too. Looking forward to feedback/input.

10 Super Unsettling Finds Dug Up at the Jamestown Colony
Jamestown, Virginia, is a pretty cool place. After all, it was the first permanent English settlement ever established in the New World. And since it was first settled in 1607, it has some pretty incredible history tied to it. The very founding of the United States of America links all the way back to Jamestown. […]

@prologic@twtxt.net maybe you meant to specify twtxt as a type similar to ActivityPub’s application/activity+json in https://webfinger.net/lookup/?resource=sorenpeter@norrebro.space
{
"rel": "self",

Then it would also make sense to define a Link Relations but should that then link to something like https://twtxt.dev/webfinger.html where we can describe the spec?

[ANN] MRL recommendation: Ban spy node IP addresses from connecting to your node
The Monero Research Lab (MRL) has decided to recommend that all Monero node operators enable a ban list of suspected spy node IP addresses. The spy nodes can reduce the privacy of Monero users. cuprate developer Boog900 discovered these spy nodes and created an IP address ban list. Developers and researchers associated with MRL (list names) have indicated their approval of this list by signing it with their PGP keys.

Yes, it’s been 5 years on the same PoW. And the date came and went without much fanfare. For those perhaps trickling into monero because of the pRiCe, you may not be aware of how much of a milestone this is in the context of an industry that is ruthless when it comes to exploiting weak PoW algorithms for profit.
