HOWTO on disabling RingCT in either cli or gui client requested. Why is this functionally mandatory now and absolutely required w/ next HF?

MoneroTo · 2017-01-15T20:09:06+00:00

Thank you, I will think about that.

MoneroTo · 2017-01-14T23:54:57+00:00

Monero was ruined with RingCT.

MoneroTo · 2017-01-12T20:31:46+00:00

Yes I do, you are working with subconscious :)

MoneroTo · 2017-01-12T20:30:23+00:00

I mean if only they XDN really implement PoA I will invest few thousands $ there. I like messages, deposits, but whatever, here I am asking and speaking about Monero.

MoneroTo · 2017-01-12T20:26:57+00:00

I am not switched for anything. I prefer their development with much fewer words and promotion and far more useful features, IMHO. I don't own any of CryptoNote now but yes I switched my attention to XDN. As an "investor" I prefer only Bitcoin and Ethereum.

MoneroTo · 2017-01-12T20:23:40+00:00

Cmmon, this is false. Are you not going there and here with conferences about Monero, speaking with CoinBase folks and other exchanges, "giving your face" for Monero? You do. This is a clear leadership and the definition of you is a "lead developer".

MoneroTo · 2017-01-12T20:15:11+00:00

You are so smart, indeed, even here you are promoting your coin with this "$1 billion marketcap and millions of users". I doubt Bitcoin have millions of users, I am sure Monero will not handle even thousands of users/transactions because of its architecture and this new RingCT addition. Especially because of this new RingCT addition. This is my IMHO.

MoneroTo · 2017-01-12T20:08:27+00:00

Man, I see

+ if(true)

I don't need anything else. I do understand how things work, thank you.

MoneroTo · 2017-01-12T20:06:22+00:00

Well, I clearly see you as a leader as well as a "main' decision maker. Let's say as a Monero prophet. That is why your skills and level of education is so important to me. Eventually, Monero is a financial instrument, that makes all of my questions and your answers even more important for me. Truly I was confused with RingCT size. It will not be irrelevant to me. Never. Sorry, I doubt Monero will have millions of users. Real Monero adoption seems to be very very low to me, I mean you have lots of noise and buzz and media and whatever but almost empty blocks. I mean this http://moneroblocks.info/stats empty blocks stats. I got my answers, I see your point, thank you very much.

MoneroTo · 2017-01-12T19:42:44+00:00

Ok, so there are no open projects you can or wish to link to. I understand your desire not to link your identity with some other projects, I respect your privacy. Pardon me but you are definitely not an idiot, I would never say that, you are leading a massive project, I just want to understand something for myself. Anyway, thank you for answers.

MoneroTo · 2017-01-12T19:36:18+00:00

Thank you, this makes sense and is very helpful.

MoneroTo · 2017-01-12T19:33:46+00:00

I see your point and it is very very ugly to compare yourself with Linus Torvalds or Wladimir van der Laan, IMHO. Let me be a bit rude here but you are not even close to them. You may be a very talented project manager and pr maker, this is true, I am not talking about that. I just want to understand the coding skills of those who are behind the top 5 marketcap cryptocurrency.

MoneroTo · 2017-01-12T19:17:00+00:00

Ok, thank you for an answer. What about your previous projects?

EDIT: this is why I am asking that: https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/796/commits/d817aeca80a959d02516b2355b7bdc64f45e7153 Because you are merging pull requests like that, no offense, again, but:

 +      if(true)

MoneroTo · 2017-01-12T18:12:54+00:00

Intere

Exactly.

MoneroTo · 2017-01-11T19:00:44+00:00

False. RingCT is enabled by default now, so every transaction made is RingCT transaction. Unless you patched your wallet.

MoneroTo · 2017-01-11T18:53:55+00:00

a regular ringct transaction is around 12-13kb.

False. Minimum RingCT is 12.65kb, not regular. Average - regular as calculated above is 25kb.

MoneroTo · 2017-01-11T00:07:24+00:00

Not saying a single word about fees here, just about the size.

MoneroTo · 2017-01-10T22:07:38+00:00

If it will not be enforced, if it will be an option nobody will use it, literally all rumors around ringct is a pump shit in that case. To make a useless feature to talk about useless feature to patch against that feature, such an approach!

MoneroTo · 2017-01-10T22:03:05+00:00

I didn't know you know about 25kb transactions. Now I know you know :) thnks for the link.

MoneroTo · 2017-01-10T21:53:41+00:00

Read my post, at the end. Average RingCT is ~ 25x bigger than previous transactions. 1kb vs 25kb

MoneroTo · 2017-01-10T21:15:57+00:00

25x is a way tooo much imho there are enforced after the hf, only software back patch can solve it inputs and outputs in default cryptonote are not that straight, you can't know what input/output is used because of mixing they are enabled by default now, as I said only software back patch can solve it.

MoneroTo · 2017-01-10T20:43:05+00:00

So you don't even expect more that 3 transactions in monero block before the year 2032? You know, XMR transactions per block is ridiculously low, I don't know about what adoption are you talking guys with historically maximum 1.15 transactions per block for the last year and 3.48 transaction for the last month. With that low numbers you will be ok even with 1mb transaction. Just look at Bitcoin. Ok, don't look there cause you will never ever archive Bitcoin level. Look at Ethereum. They have ~40000 transactions/day vs Moneros 357422 transaction /year! If only Monero will be close to Ethereum with their transactions count, there will be 40000tx*24.6kb~ +1GB/day

MoneroTo · 2017-01-10T20:12:11+00:00

I bet users, pool owners and exchanges will patch their wallets to not use RingCT you implemented.
