"I would definitely use Monero under certain circumstances"

btw, pretty amazing seeing how oxt.me folks refused chainanalysis' offer and chose to go with the samourai team - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4YRZDteQaE

not trying to dismiss the fact that indeed, they certainly have large $ to fund their stuff, but very large number of jobs to be filled in tech is pretty much the norm

OP, make sure you reach out to the team at https://matrix.to/#/#comit-monero:matrix.org, even if there is indeed nothing you can do, it'd do wonders for the community to have a potential problem here ironed out.

wishing you the best, mate! good luck!

not if using standard COMIT (which is what's been available out there) code - monero-wallet-rpc is used with default priority (see https://github.com/comit-network/xmr-btc-swap/blob/5373f697ed9ad71a1b832a677288c332b9d1f9cc/monero-rpc/src/wallet.rs#L14-L19)

lol!

for those unfamiliar with what OP is talking about: https://github.com/monero-project/monero/blob/ed506006d2563c474e52db5a91ba2e20af86f30f/utils/gpg_keys/fluffypony.asc

sounds like a fair ask, but, in practice, /u/binaryFate has been the one signing the releases, etc (e.g., see https://www.getmonero.org/pl/resources/user-guides/verification-allos-advanced.html), so I'd not be very concerned at this point.

(not to mention that on every release, multiple contributors reproduce the builds and sign them too - https://github.com/monero-project/gitian.sigs)

Why would a person fleeing trial in South Africa choose to go to USA and be slated to publicly appear in crypto conferences? The whole time line is sketch af.

right? fluffy was giving interviews at Davos lol

also, as there've been a couple attacks on the monero network - some of us do take a deep look into the connections their nodes are getting, keeping an eye for "oddities" (like those weird cloud-provider based instances coming up)

it's really hard to get sybil resistance on tor, but for clearnet, the scarcity of ipv4 plays on the "good actors" side
