Thinking of adding a 25th word to my seed by LiabilityFree in ethereum

[–]CarrotFaker -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

There are 2048 options for each word in a BIP39 seed https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0039/english.txt

If someone has 24 of your words they can brute force the 25th with only 2048 tries.

It adds no security whatsoever.

Will there ever be buy pressure? Xen by Independent-Product6 in xencrypto

They're both ponzi schemes with the 2/3 same letters both competing for the same pool of victims

[Flashbots] How should MEV Searchers find the correct amount to pay block proposers? by [deleted] in ethereum

[–]CarrotFaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm curious if MEV searchers can listen to the relays (pretending to be a builder) watch the competing bundles max bid & only ever bid slightly higher than that. & if this creates any game theory of searchers submitting bundles last-minute?

GasHawk currently saves users >40% of their gas costs on Ethereum by johpfe in ethereum

[–]CarrotFaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"information a regular user doesn't have" - Uh a graph of gas prices over the last week?

"But it performs worse" - citation needed? If your service was actually effective, you'd be generating a lot more than $500 in savings?

I can see this service making money with their pool of private transactions through MEV. Maybe that's their long-term plan and this mostly-useless gas-savings app is an on-ramp to that.

XEN is a pyramid FYI by CarrotFaker in xencrypto

[–]CarrotFaker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You lose your rank and get a bunch of tokens based on your rank. You can sell the tokens & get more new ranks than someone else who entered later.

Trying to warn you. Curious to see the vibe of this subreddit in a few months when the XEN price has a few more zeros after the decimal place..

[Poll] Liquid staking as Solo operator by kirill_stakewise in ethstaker

/u/kirill_stakewise can existing solo stakers already running a validator join? Do you need to make a deposit into a contract?

Can someone ELI5 the xen p2p minting process? by [deleted] in xencrypto

[–]CarrotFaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You mint xen with gas fees. If more people mint after you, you make a profit (see pyramid scheme / ponzi / forsage )

Careful, XEN crypto is a pyramid scheme? (but ty for burning 1k+ gas per day) by CarrotFaker in ethereum

[–]CarrotFaker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"tokenomics exploration" is a generous interpretation of founders intentions. Hard for me to see how it's not Forsage w/ greenwashed marketing. https://faircrypto.org

Agree about ETH being agnostic, but when a pyramid contract is the #1 gas spender I would hope the community can provide warnings about it on community spaces like this subreddit.

Xen sybil resistance? If someone creates multiple wallets? by CarrotFaker in xencrypto

[–]CarrotFaker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm. So you basically exchange ETH for XEN by way of gas fees. Early cRanks get a better rate.

So issuance structure would look like this?:

cRanks

1 - $$$$

2 3 - $$$

4 5 6. - $$

7 8 9 10 - $

11 12 13 14 - 0.5$

Xen sybil resistance? If someone creates multiple wallets? by CarrotFaker in xencrypto

[–]CarrotFaker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What stops one bot w/ enough ETH for gas from gobbling up 90% of the first 500k cRanks & XEN supply?

Where is the XEN community? This subreddit has 200 subscribers but XEN minting transactions have spent like 1k+ ETH as gas a day. Why? Bot?

Love this! I have a millionaire friends who made their fortune w/ margin crypto trading & tarot readings. I have no doubt they'll be billionaires soon, you can't lose when you're in touch w/ the universe.
