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.

[ANN] Privacy and Anonymity in Monero

I have a written a blog post on how Monero uses Cryptography (ECDH, Pedersen Commitments, Schnorr Signatures, Ring Signatures etc) to add privacy & anonymity on the blockchain. I have covered most of the cryptography used except for RangeProofs (Bulletproofs) which I plan to cover later in a separate post. Do let me know if you find any mistakes or if something isn’t clear.

“No NAT November: My Month Without IPv4”
In his post “No NAT November: My Month Without IPv4” security engineer Alex Haydock writes about the challenges of IPv6-only networks and explains techniques like DNS64, NAT64 and CLAT. An interesting read for someone like me, who doesn’t know much more about IPv6 than that support is still lacking in many places (like GitHub). ⌘ Read more

[ANN] RandomX 5 Year Anniversary

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.

[LTH] RTL native speaker for Moner.ooo

Programming experience is not required. Translation can be done via Weblate, or Github. I need it not only for the translation, but also for the final feedback. Whether the website is displayed correctly. It doesn’t matter which language, it just has to be an rtl language. (right to left)

I couldn’t sleep this morning, so I got up sometime, ate, exercised, showered and finished my ATProto/Bluesky integration in GoBlog. You can now follow me there too: @jlelse.blog. But I think I will only use it very passively and only post my links there automatically. ⌘ Read more

[ANN] PSA: Haveno-Reto is now RetoSwap

Haveno-Reto has become RetoSwap with a new X handle and a new SimpleX room. It would be best to remove the old SimpleX room and join the new one. At the moment the website is still haveno-reto.com but I expect that to be changed soon.

I like this comment on Slashdot in the above link:

LLMs don’t have an understanding of anything. They can only regurgitate derivations of what they’ve been trained on and can’t apply that to something new in the same ways that humans or even other animals can. The models are just so large that the illusion is impressive.

So true.

[ANN] Sigmanero.org is closing down Monday 11th November

We launched sigmanero.org back in April but since then the adoption as not picked up. The concept of a betting exchange using multisig might be too early to take off just yet, especially since the handwork of building a network effect is yet to be done.

[ANN] A faster alternative to blockchain consensus

Instead of confirmation coming from outside of transactions, it would be better for it to come from within them. Ideally, every output would be tied to the input that spends it, so it can’t be double-spent. But, this can’t be done before the input exists, so the output must be tied to an intermediary, which gets tied to the input after it’s created.
