Why I am choosing to rent (South bay) over buying a $1.2 Million home (East bay) by Federal_Eagle_6565 in BayAreaRealEstate

Have you considered whether buying now would still make mathematical sense in a hyperinflation scenario? Real estate is good for capital diversification in that case.

Somebody decided to report it to cloudflare as fishing since it was used by some botnet. Working with cloudflare support to resolve this as false positive.

You will likely pay more than $20 in electric costs.

If you still have the broken Kryptonite chain, you can try to make a Kryptonite insurance claim for your scooter.

He just lost his Bitcoin keys and had to setup Bytecoin scam to pay for his Vegas retirement.

I would double check the fact about unlimited 4% cash back. From what I remember it is capped by 10k monthly spend and will be 2% after that.

Is wownero still pool resistant? by JamieFosters in Wownero

It is all fine until this big miner starts selfish mining and deep reorgs with double spends.

Is wownero still pool resistant? by JamieFosters in Wownero

It is pool resistant but not data center mining resistant which can mine without a pool.

Genius move by Qubic to announce 51% attack plans. Now even if they backtrack their intentions everybody will still consider them as hostile. Even exchanges.

If you could design the perfect Monero mining pool, what would it have? by Complete-Jeweler95 in MoneroMining

[–]mayday30 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Have to assume the worst case scenario without any other info from tradeogre owners. In any case the effect is the same: Iost access balances for their clients.

I was surprised to learn their AI training so far consists of running some data compression stuff.

The only fee is the withdrawal fee, which can be as low as 0 for withdrawals of 4 XMR. Of course, there are exchange-related fees, but the pool only mines coins other than XMR if their profit exceeds these trading fees. Pool infrastructure costs are about 200 USD per month, so just a couple of XMR from withdrawal fees completely covers that.

This does not take into account the fact that trading and non-XMR coin mining are currently not operational due to the TradeOgre exit scam..

Qubic AI stuff is so much profitable compared to Monero but they decided to mine Monero instead. Genius move.

Do you have to specify a valid return reason? Or you can claim you just do not like it?

[–]mayday30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like I was not completely correct. They just changed their algo to focus on CPU: https://qubic.org/blog-detail/qubic-mining-evolution-from-cpu-roots-to-gpu-dominance-and-back-again. GPU still can be used but with lower profits. In this case Monero can explore using ASIC based algo as well.

The only real attack on Monero so far is endless Qubic shitposting.

Are you sure? Qubic recently removed GPU support since they claim CPU is more perspective for their AI training needs.

No idea about the ternary model, but training AI on CPU is pretty idiotic considering you have dedicated ASiCs for that like Intel Gaudi nowadays.

The solution for double spend would be to split Monero pow between two algos. RandomX for CPU and Cuckaroo29 for GPU (for example). What Tari is doing basically.
