I've never had an issue transferring monero either on large nor small amounts but there is a cost of time.

Yes. One step at a time, implement the more useful features and then go for the stretch goals.
To be quite fair, I'm building this device mostly to myself with things I'd use on daily basis because I couldn't find something already available.
I'll keep you posted.

Yesterday was working on the website feature. I want these tiny devices to host small web pages with status, navigate the publications and so forth. This because I want the device to be reachable from the outside as a your own private and portable relay.
I'm not yet 100% sure that the bitcoin lottery ticket can be added and run OK, but will give a fair try after adding the most critical feature like NOSTR backup.

Yep. The source code is being written here: https://github.com/radio3-network/geogram-tdongle
There aren't many docs in digital format because I use paper too often but took a picture of the overall functionality.
It interacts with another app of mine (just android for the moment) to share messages and presence information.

Different animals. Blossom delivers what IPFS only promised which is great for small individual files (image) repeated ad eternum that were depending on URLs.
Torrents are great for large volumes of data where the load is better/faster shared by many hosts.
People are pacient enough to wait a minute for one torrent to start (torrent initialization and swarm search), they wouldn't be patient to wait one minute for a small image to load.
Other than that, I'm a big fan of torrents too.

I'm of similar opinion to yours, in either case I have never observed an ESP32 to suffer wear issues.
The data itself is stored on the external memory card. So even if the device breaks, the data is saved. Some memory cards advertise a life span of 20 years for usage in surveillance cams.
Last but not least, this should be an optional feature. Maybe a warning can be added. The miner itself will only use one of the CPUs (has two of them) so I'm curious to see how it would react with less one CPU available.

2025-03-31 19:43:27

- reply

I'm a big fan of blossom myself, that is certainly a must-have.
Storage is 32 GB maximum with an external SD card. Good enough for a few million publications but a bit smallish with pics or videos.
On further releases can try to push storage into higher values.

2025-03-31 19:18:50

This little device costs 15 euros and will soon be your free NOSTR backup server for your publications. Can also backup the texts from people you follow.
Will soon be released. If there is interest I can add a small bitcoin miner inside to function as lottery ticket.
Just zap if you want that feature to be added here.

That's why monero is most commonly used for real world transactions.

2025-03-30 23:21:06

- reply

You still wouldn't.
First because it was something unknown beyond the usual gov groups, cybersec researchers and criminals.
Second, you'd have to mine it. There were no exchanges, no value foreseen for that piece that might as well be a botnet by the way it was eating CPU.
Third, you'd have to keep it. When it spiked to 30 USD most people sold it. Eventually the majority moved to Monero a few years later to get away from that fed coin.
That was it.

In good reality, "crypto" has its original Latin meaning in "to hide" or later as "encrypted".
When any given type of digital coins can't be kept private from others, then they shouldn't be called crypto currency.
And then we come into the other important distinguishing characteristic for a cryptocurrency: mining.
Mining has the goal of a fair distribution to as many users as possible to keep the network unbiased and fair. When a digital coin claims to be mined but then in practice only chinese farms instead of home users can mine it, that is effectively not a crypto currency either, it something elitist that isn't reachable for normal people.
Then there is the word "coin".
Which relates to using the virtual object as someone would use coins to buy things and pay to others. Some of those "coins" claim to be "store of value" which is an abomination when you think about the goal of using coins. A crypto coin worthy of that name needs to be used on the real world. Buy stuff, keep it, but use it several times a year. Most of the folks here talk about crypto coins all week long and never actually buy stuff with it.
Last but not least is religion. Technology is not religion. It is sad to see religious ignorance taking place instead of the technological power that created these things in the first place.
There is one coin that deserves to be truly called a cryptocurrency, a coin coin that governments will never support but that is always there to support you, the people. One day everyone here will understand why.

That would be the case when assuming all coins remain in circulation.
Users lose access to wallets, keys are lost. As more people use a currency, less coins are circulating as they accumulate their wealth.
Therefore the price tends to go up or at minimum remain fairly stable despite troubled times.

Nem sequer noto que está a minerar e todos os dias recebo um pouco de monero.
É difícil alguém em casa lucrar com mineração. Porém pense desta forma, se você minera 12 reais por mês hoje então é dinheiro que continua a subir de valor que você ganhou predicamente graça.

The chinese copy of flipper arrived today. The case itself isn't that good (cheap plastic) and feels bulkier.

That sounds good. Will definitely try it out. What I do miss are shared bookmarks.
Many years ago existed del.ici.ous which allowed anyone to bookmark pages and comment/tag why they mattered, making easy for others to build a directory, vote on the high quality links and find relevant stuff.
Maybe that kind of feature you see possible, together with the option to archive that page (similar to archive.is or wayback) but this time hosted by blossom at nostr relays.
The biggest advantage on that is that people would still be able to visit dead links and download these pages to their devices for browsing offline. It is their own copy and I don't see any other product helping to that. With nostr it is easier.

Version 0.1 of Geogram for Android has been released and can be downloaded here: https://github.com/radio3-network/geogram/releases/tag/0.1
In this first version, we tested off-grid communication using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) without any pairing or manual interaction, enabling communication without the internet. Instructions for installation and testing are available on the page. At least two Android phones are required to use the local chat. Please note that these are beta versions, so they work in a very unstable manner. The next step is to add off-grid communication via Wi-Fi to transmit larger amounts of data. This feature will be available in the next release.
Summary of this initiative:
Geogram is an Android app designed to enable communication and data sharing using only the radio capabilities of regular smartphones: Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. The range is short (up to 50 meters). To overcome this limitation, we use a "Pigeon Mail" system. In this system, someone collects the messages within a community and carries them in their pocket until reaching a location with internet access or where the message recipients are. Each message can be encrypted and read only by the recipient. Our goal is to create a radio-digital version of pigeon mail.
And Yes: NOSTR is inside, of course :-)

Nope, that is cultism. There are non-negotiable values like privacy.
You don't stick to some old tech which today is a government surveillance tool just because of nostalgia. You change because we use crypto currencies to get away from that government surveillance and control in the first place.
You talk about "most decentralized" but unfortunately that is a wishful thinking rather than a fact. When you look on the mining charts (where that decentralization happens), the top 4 mining pools control +80% of what is accepted as a transaction. To remember, you only need 51% to technically break the system so it is NOT the most decentralized system out there.

Again if you look on monero, the community there has enabled mining on normal CPUs by everyday users rather than professional ASIC farming. Anyone here can mine monero at home, they even went beyond that and are replacing mining pools with P2P pools. That is true decentralization at work, try yourself to mine a cryptocurrency and to get some atual monero on your wallet every day: https://gupax.io/

From my own experience, would tend to believe they are good-willed for the most part albeit technically unsavvy and this hasn't changed in decades.
I think anyone here can remember the cookies flop and its impact on the internet, but there were also good things like setting up the USB-C port as default to reduce waste and internet roaming across EU without extra costs.
On this case the legislation aims for large platforms, which is unusually reasonable. Innovation tends to come from small platforms that remain safeguarded that way.
Will that regulation be effective without deep technical know-how? I think not, still remember flops like the Privacy Shield which forced US companies to host data in Europe but then permitted their technicians to perform on-site maintenance unsupervised, which basically defeated the purpose of assuring those critical infrastructure tools remained private.
Please do keep posting your impressions, it was a delightful read.

Oh, but there are multiple ways to legally buy houses anonymously enough. Setup a company at some tropical island and make it the house owner. Good luck trying to uncover the owners for an offshore company.
Or, use a surrogate person that will own properties on your behalf. You'd be suprised how many homeless people are owners of properties on their name without even imagining. If that's too risky, then do a contract with a reputable law firm and have them own the property on your behalf as trust fund holders.
Plenty of methods suited to all tastes and budgets. But I really see just about zero people using coin joining or any other convoluted method in the real world. They'll just wire monero to cut costs with commissions or risk of losing their money at some shady place.

They won't use it. The only thing 99% of those people is buying and stacking that old tech in the hope that someday it can become their retirement income.
So they won't use it. They just hope more governments and investment funds can drive the price up but they will never need or use crypto in their lives.
These are the same people who buy stocks and things like that. They won't care about privacy, KYC or worry about repression because they won't go against the flow either.
Those are your average boomer coin adopters. If they'd do understand technology or crypto at all, they would all be using Monero by now.

You might disagree and prefer to enable the flooding of your nation because you are kind hearted and see future optimistically. You will still live comfortably even as streets are on fire, your next generation will be the one to suffer and then be forced to leave. They will conquer some other place with a naive or weak native population and so the same cycle repeats itself.
This happened to my family on the previous generation. My mother was in favor of open borders and freedom. They got kicked out by the next outsider group who later took over their land by force. Even though she lost everything, even as an old lady she still doesn't understand why they were so violent even as she stretched out her hand to help. Reality is a bitch.

Migration is natural, and so is our desire to protect what is ours. In this planet we have long lived under the maxim of conquer or be conquered.
The ones denying the existence of this rule of life are quite often the conquered ones.

Hirschfeld, communist jew that besides that book was also doing sexual experiments which even today would land him in jail: https://www.amerika.org/texts/the-origins-of-%E2%80%98racism%E2%80%99-the-curious-beginnings-of-a-useless-word-samuel-francis/
That word was exclusively created as attack word against native europeans, still used that way today by the same religious and political groups.

"True money isn't meant to be completely hidden" 😂
Fiat has been doing just find for millennia without you ever knowing the where it is. Nobody realistically uses a boomer coin as money, it is a collection article that deserves it's place in a museum but isn't money either.
Monero is the closest thing in the crypto world that can be called as money, because it is used on the real world to buy real stuff rather than just "hodling".

For god sake grandpa. That government surveillance tech isn't freedom.
When it was first tested in the name of "freedom" two years ago, they easily arrested/bothered anyone donating that boomer coin to the "wrong" causes.
Your can call it "digital gold" or whatever, just don't ever confuse yourself to think it gives you freedom.
Yes, it does give you the "freedom" permitted by governments, but that isn't the real deal. Monero fixed that, grandpa.

That is naive. These "crisis" are manufactured to the benefit of the same groups that benefit from war in the middle east.
Neither of them will stop. The only realistic option at our hands is to force the borders to be closed. Understand one thing: You won't go against the elites and complaing here with naive wishes won't go far, so you might as well do something useful rather than daydreaming while you see our societies dive to hell.

Yep. Russia did that to 30% of rightful German territory a few years ago, expelled millioms of native Germans and today is Poland.
India with Gandhi did similar, millions upon millions were kicked out to what is today called Pakistan.
More recently in Europe, Bosnia kicked out about a million people who refused to be Muslims and Ukraine pretty much bombs since the past ten years their own citizens that refuse being Ukrainians.
Only rich westerners are disconnected enough from reality to remember history and even less prepared they are to understand geopolitics.

Thank you for the kind words. Beta should be available by end of January.

Not really. Basically the tech was never private nor the team makes a proper effort for that, plus all the evil stuff they've done over and over again to screw users and how they were exposed often for that.
This is public info.

Just look closely at the team developing it and why they made privacy to be optional instead of default.
This isn't rocket science.

Thanks for sharing. From a cellphone it doesn't render well the longer texts like the bitcoin white paper.
Other than that, always good to follow the progress. 👍

It is a case for keeping it simple.
In either way, if you feel that strongly about a change then it might be a better approach to just implement a prototype and see how others react.

Z whatever is a psyop, there is a reason why it isn't used. Monero is the way.

Cashu works as intended: give anonymous coupons to someone else.
It isn't for big sums of money. For that we already have proper anonymous crypto. It isn't to pay coffees and grocery, for that we already have zaps.
This fills a niche in the real world which isn't answered by other options. Even when the mint stops working, you won't see many people upset over it. In fact, the person running the mint is likely someone close to the customers and won't like to keep them unsatisfied for 90% of cases. It isn't perfect, but this is the real world. There are advantages to this loosen method that I think you are under-appreciating but that have a tremendous value to others.

I don't mean a detailed report. It is reporting the mint activity level which is a dead giveaway of which ones to target first.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a monero fan so this type of proofs are expected but that is on a large blockchain. On a mint this would make it a target.
