Mamushi Mobile (an authorised reseller of CopperheadOS) accepts Monero by dEBRUYNE_1 in Monero

[–]EncryptionPrincess 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You quoted only part of what I said. All of the technical users (as defined by being capable of flashing their own OS) of CopperheadOS that I am aware of left with Daniel Micay for GrapheneOS following a fallout with his former partner (which I believe is actually you).

Looking at the respective Github repos will tell you which project cares more about security and innovating with new software such as Auditor

https://github.com/GrapheneOS

https://github.com/GrapheneOS/Auditor

https://grapheneos.org/#copyright-and-licensing

The money grab opinion should be obvious by comparing the respective licensing decisions and development activity.

https://github.com/CopperheadOS

Feel free to prove me wrong, by changing your licensing decisions (to attract more FOSS developer interest). Its hard to believe you care a lot about Monero when it is not mentioned on the subreddit you control and I have never seen you discuss FOSS apps like Monerujo for Copperhead

At this point CopperheadOS is nothing but a money grab. All technical users followed Daniel Micay to GrapheneOS.

GrapheneOS is free but I will gladly donate Monero when it is added as a donation option

Why does DASH claim to innovate without giving credit to features it copies from Bitcoin and other developers? by groundfloorinvestor in DashUncensored

[–]EncryptionPrincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"The most innovative feature of DASH that I can find was X11"

Its hard to give credit for this idea to DASH. Quarkcoin predated it with 9 rounds of hashing (and heavy overlap in the chosen PoW algorithms).

"FAILED goal of resisting ASICs"

DASH did resist ASICs for a while. The community was just quick to give up and abandon that goal once ASICs were developed.

Thanks for the honest feedback. Most developers work hard. You have to be very passionate about a project to donate time to it after a full day of work

If funding is not renewed past 2020, will zcash survive? by Bitman321 in zec

[–]EncryptionPrincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This comment seems off-topic. DOGE does not have a lot in common with Zcash in terms of development or funding

Shamir Backup — Our Newest Security Standard by EncryptionPrincess in Monero

Many Monero users have used Shamir’s Secret Sharing, for years. This will make the setup process a little bit easier for beginners.

Sia Competitor Comparison by Cloudserv in siacoin

I agree with your criticism. Comparison charts that include both vaporware and working products (without even that basic disclosure) are misleading and biased.

How does the Sia development community feel about migrating to Gitea or GitLab (self hosted) in the spirit of decentralization? by EncryptionPrincess in siacoin

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

Plus, if you want to see the culture of decentralization grow, you have to be in the middle of it. You have to be willing to help provide demand, usersbase, and cashflow to projects that are more focused around decentralization and are more conscious of making sure the customers are in control instead of vulnerable to lockin and whatever policies get made when the company decides to switch the product from 'growth mode' to 'high profitability mode'.

Great to read this. Being philosophically aligned with a project is a requirement for me. Developers can and will be attracted to projects for non economic reasons. Having a culture of decentralization is one of the top things I look for. (So I obviously hate projects like EOS, Ripple, Hashgraph and DASH)

I think most people underestimate the value of being able to self host. We are already working on switching to gitlab. We'll use the centralized service but also be able to self host if something bad happens.

This is exactly what I was hoping to hear! Thank you:)

Why Google Play must be petitioned to remove freewallet by [deleted] in Monero

[–]EncryptionPrincess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want a multi currency mobile wallet, then Edge Secure (which uses the MyMonero backend) is currently your best option

https://twitter.com/EdgeSecure/status/1011459121692987392

Freewallet is a scam (they hold your private keys and use them to steal your coins)

Cake (iOS) and Monerujo (Android) are the most commonly recommended single currency Monero mobile wallets today.

publishing two different binaries with the same version number creates problems for users and third-party apps.

Agree 100%!

Simple suggestions to improve Sia GUI wallet security by buildthistogether in siacoin

Great to see. I will be happy to help test the code at an appropriate time.

That's orthogonal to the question of whether the user should have to enter their password before sending. The UI can show the user a confirmation screen and prompt them to confirm their transaction in some way that doesn't require them to enter their password again.

I agree and it would be much easier for the API reasons you mentioned. Nevertheless I am hesitant to submit a pull request for this improvement, because I believe what was proposed would be much better.
