00:08:36 DataHoarder: FYI. Due to spam wave I have disabled bridges for ~5h due to relapses.
09:21:35 jueyy:matrix.org: How do i buy monero p2p?
09:21:46 jueyy:matrix.org: Anon?
11:56:37 octavian: Anyone knows what's up with the hashrate? Confirmations taking 2x time for some reason
12:09:12 anything21:matrix.org: octavian: It's normal. Sometimes it takes longer, sometimes it takes less.
12:14:10 octavian: Got it, thanks
15:07:13 falleninfernal:matrix.org: Where do I discuss monero bounties?
15:20:19 ofrnxmr: #monero-bounties:monero.social
17:01:14 ufo808:matrix.org: why this post got deleted from monero subreddit? https://kappa.lol/ucrkPo
17:01:43 ufo808:matrix.org: I think it's interesting news for monero
17:02:10 Cindy_: because it sounded like spam
17:02:28 ufo808:matrix.org: Cindy_: I guess so
17:06:02 Cindy_: try getting rid of the last sentence
17:06:13 Cindy_: or how about just post nothing but the headline and link
17:06:29 ufo808:matrix.org: good idea
17:08:56 ufo808:matrix.org: it worked Cindy

17:14:23 DataHoarder: lol it's in between the several thousand of spam messages
17:14:39 DataHoarder: yeah. I was trying to re-post what was in the reddit image
17:30:55 Cindy_: ufo808: where?
17:31:01 Cindy_: i can't find the post you sent
17:31:47 stormyyy:stormyyy.xyz: DataHoarder: what spam
17:32:08 DataHoarder: https://libera.monerologs.net/monero/20251224#c629431
17:32:12 Cindy_: stormyyy: libera spam from yesterday
17:32:14 DataHoarder: it was less worse here than in other channels
17:32:25 DataHoarder: it was cleaned from matrix mostly
17:33:25 Cindy_: DataHoarder: you missed the fake libera announcement above
17:33:31 datahoarder: no
17:33:38 datahoarder: those even made it onto libera channels
17:33:41 Cindy_: yes
17:33:44 datahoarder: just not the spammy part
17:34:00 Cindy_: fun fact: the guy who made that fake libera announcement spam talked here before
17:34:09 Cindy_: their alts were K-lined
17:36:46 Cindy_: https://libera.monerologs.net/monero/20251004#c596559
17:38:18 Cindy_: one of his alts ^
18:30:48 martin.monero:matrix.org: Hi all, what’s the easiest way to buy Monero right now? Any suggestions?
18:30:59 Cindy_: on haveno retoswap
18:31:12 Cindy_: if you want the easiest EASIEST way, CEX is
18:31:27 Cindy_: but that's KYC mostly
18:31:38 redsh4de:matrix.org: @martin.monero:matrix.org: Eigenwallet or Trocador if you already have crypto
18:36:34 BlueyHealer: Cindy_, or KYC exchange for BTC/LTC, then swap it, that's more widely available.
18:37:09 Cindy_: i actually have a question related to this
18:37:21 Cindy_: there are services that convert cryptocurrencies to fiat for you
18:37:28 Cindy_: but are there services that do vice-versa?
18:37:37 Cindy_: for accepting fiat
18:38:25 BlueyHealer: What are the examples of what you're talking about?
18:39:20 BlueyHealer: In general, I just get the impression that the seller is always supposed to get at least less anonymity and privacy than the buyer.
18:40:15 Cindy_: BlueyHealer: y'know how companies accept cryptocurrency donations
18:40:26 Cindy_: they use a intermediate that converts crypto to fiat
18:41:49 martin.monero:matrix.org: Monero isn’t available on CEX.IO (https://cex.io/buy-monero-xmr
18:41:49 martin.monero:matrix.org: ).
18:41:49 martin.monero:matrix.org: I’ll check other options:
18:41:49 martin.monero:matrix.org: https://trocador.app/en/[... more lines follow, see https://mrelay.p2pool.observer/e/1a3DgtYKdFpGZVpB ]
18:42:02 BlueyHealer: Yeah, but the one that accepts the converted things has to get KYCd, no?
18:42:21 Cindy_: yes
18:43:35 BlueyHealer: IDK that just feels wrong on some level
18:43:49 Cindy_: but this shouldn't be KYCd :P
18:43:56 Cindy_: because it's fiat to crypto
18:47:26 BlueyHealer: Ah, I realized at least one asymmetrical thing I was feeling off about: chargebacks. Like, if a payer decides to do one, the middleman would have no way of providing one. When the buyer is the one handling crypto, this wouldn't be something that can happen.
18:55:07 snake: i think it's worth looking into whether that could be disputed or not. i know some chargebacks can be disputed. and if a user donates, it gets converted into crypto, it's paid to the person accepting that donation or whatever, then there might be a way to dispute their chargeback since details on the delivery and agreements could be provided
18:55:50 Cindy_: BlueyHealer: obviously if you do a chargeback, you're a dick
18:55:57 kowalabearhugs_: The donors wish to remain anonymous :) https://www.fsf.org/news/free-software-foundation-receives-historic-private-donations
18:56:13 Cindy_: usually people who do chargebacks on a donations are those who want the clout and credit but none of the money to spend on it
18:56:37 Cindy_: (except those who had their credit card stolen or something)
18:58:08 niyid:matrix.org: Hi everyone 👋
18:58:08 niyid:matrix.org: I’ve released an Android Monero wallet app.
18:58:08 niyid:matrix.org: [... more lines follow, see https://mrelay.p2pool.observer/e/oqP_gtYKSzF3Y0ls ]
18:59:27 Cindy_: "License: [Add your license here]"
19:00:03 stormyyy:stormyyy.xyz: @niyid:matrix.org: care to use more whitespace?
19:01:07 BlueyHealer: Cindy_, not denying. My point was not on the lack of morality, but rather on how it would be a headache for the middleman and no one wants that.
19:01:26 Cindy_: your app is literally a modified version of https://github.com/m2049r/xmrwallet
19:01:34 Cindy_: which btw, you didn't even change the java class names on
19:01:53 BlueyHealer: XD
19:02:26 BlueyHealer: kowalabearhugs, a Christmas miracle!
19:02:28 Cindy_: there's two directories in the src directory
19:03:05 Cindy_: https://github.com/niyid/apo/blob/main/app/src/main/java/com/techducat/apo/ApoApp.kt
19:03:10 Cindy_: hardcoded bugfender API key
19:03:40 Cindy_: "enableUIEventLogging(this)"
19:04:02 niyid:matrix.org: Thanks a lot! I will make those updates. I don't use BugFender anymore
19:05:12 Cindy_: https://github.com/niyid/apo/blob/main/gradle.properties
19:05:16 Cindy_: chagenow API key here
19:06:16 niyid:matrix.org: I'm yet to integrate ChangeNOW.
19:06:24 gan:skhron.org: "AI" slop, everything was probably hallucinated
19:06:51 Cindy_: but why leave your API key here
19:07:20 gan:skhron.org: stolen email too
19:07:54 gan:skhron.org: neeyeed[at]gmail.com is located in around 14 data Breaches
19:08:24 niyid:matrix.org: It's not a real API key. That has not yet been handled.
19:08:33 niyid:matrix.org: https://github.com/m2049r/xmrwallet/pull/1013
19:09:49 Cindy_: you should probably make it more clear that it's a fork of m2049r's xmrwallet
19:09:49 Cindy_: i wouldn't care if that project's code was like.. a minority in yours
19:09:49 Cindy_: but rn, it's about 98% of your project
19:09:49 gan:skhron.org: > This build was entirely fashioned by Claude Sonnet 4.5 and I merely guided it. I want that piece of information noted.
19:09:49 Cindy_: niyid: this is a really bad PR, ngl
19:09:50 gan:skhron.org: mental disability of severe form
19:10:08 Cindy_: first of all, you made a lot of things that are out of scope of the PR (which is trying to build based on a newer version of NDK and boost
19:10:14 Cindy_: like adding a CONTRIBUTORS.MD file
19:10:22 Cindy_: and also... why did you include your build directory
19:10:25 gan:skhron.org: And please do redeem too
19:10:43 Cindy_: https://github.com/m2049r/xmrwallet/pull/1013/files#diff-02113b008dcd859e834e8f7b3d3de232168496f8bc8e11a32857790e345b05eb
19:10:48 Cindy_: what tf is this qr code
19:11:25 Cindy_: a random QR code just sitting there
19:11:48 niyid:matrix.org: LOL @ stolen email
19:11:57 plowsof: Same story here https://bounties.monero.social/posts/24/10-233m-upgrade-monero-integration-to-support-odoo-15 https://github.com/monero-integrations/moneroodoo/pull/19 (merge was reverted)
19:12:16 Cindy_: okay i just decoded the QR code
19:12:21 Cindy_: it's.... your wallet address
19:12:33 Cindy_: why did you put your own wallet address in someone else's project, that sounds kinda rude
19:12:47 gan:skhron.org: plowsof: the latter is such a fucking yap
19:13:12 Cindy_: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/m2049r/xmrwallet/1be353833d1dadabaa196f754be3291437621d72/monero_wallet.png
19:13:20 Cindy_: this is the QR code i'm referring to in the PR (monero_wallet.png)
19:13:24 plowsof: Merry christmas 🌲
19:13:55 gan:skhron.org: Merry scanmas
19:14:28 Cindy_: when i contribute to a monero project, i don't just sneak a QR code of my wallet in the project :P
19:14:35 Cindy_: and hope they don't see it in the PR
19:14:43 gan:skhron.org: scammas*
19:16:41 Cindy_: also why do you keep force-pushing
23:12:40 basses:matrix.org: need to be reported on playstore > <@niyid:matrix.org> Hi everyone 👋
23:17:30 Cindy_: basses: who will even find it
23:17:43 Cindy_: the name and picture has nothing to do with monero, people will think it's junk
23:33:55 ofrnxmr:xmr.mx: @basses:matrix.org: Play store is full of garbage anyway (i doubt they care)
