ATTENTION @BTCPayserver #XMR OPERATORS
If you go with a standard setup, hot watch-only rpc wallet on a VPS and full wallet on a personal device,
eventually you will run into bitcoinops.org/en/topics/gap-…
There is no GAP LIMIT setting in any known Monero wallets at the moment.
👇👇👇
To make your funds accessible, you will need to restore the wallet with CLI wallet from seed with
--subaddress-lookahead 2:20000
That, until gap setting appears in CLI.

Why war in Ukraine🇺🇦, you might ask.
ChatGPT access provided by @MattAlbourgh @PPQai
>>>START OF TRANSCRIPT<<<
Me: what is the estimated Telegram messenger userbase in january 2022 and now?
ChatGPT: As of January 2022, Telegram reported having 500 million monthly active users. However, the user base of popular applications like Telegram tends to grow over time, so the number is likely to have increased since then.
### January 2022:
- **Telegram Monthly Active Users**: Approximately 500 million.
### As of Now (October 2023):
- **Telegram Monthly Active Users**: The exact current number might not be as readily available, but it is estimated to be over 700 million monthly active users based on recent reports and growth trends observed in 2022 and 2023.
Me: isn't 50% growth of userbase in 1.5 years extraordinary?
ChatGPT: Yes, a 50% growth in the user base over 1.5 years is quite extraordinary, especially for an established platform. Such rapid growth can be attributed to several factors:
1. **Increased Demand for Privacy**: Telegram is known for its strong privacy features (lol) and end-to-end encryption (no shit?), which have become increasingly important to users.
2. **Expanded Features**: Telegram continuously adds new features and improvements, such as voice chats, video calls, and enhanced group management, attracting more users.
3. **Global Reach**: Telegram has a global user base, and its popularity in diverse regions can contribute to rapid growth.
4. **Incidents with Competitors**: When competitors face issues, such as outages, privacy concerns, or changes in terms of service (e.g., WhatsApp's policy updates), users often migrate to Telegram as a reliable alternative (ChatGPT loves Telegram?).
5. **Influence of Global Events**: Events like the COVID-19 pandemic have driven up the adoption of digital communication tools as people seek to stay connected while socially distanced (this!).
Here are some potential numbers to give perspective:
- **January 2021**: Telegram reported reaching 500 million monthly active users.
- **January 2022**: Approximately 500-600 million users.
- **October 2023**: Estimated to be over 700 million users.
Growth by these amounts signals not only a strong product-market fit but also effective user acquisition and retention strategies.
Me: Is it purely coincidental (esp. considering p.5: Influence of Global Events) that Russia assaulted Ukraine in February 2022 and Telegram channels were flooded with free news content from the war, turning the platform into the source of news for millions of new users?
ChatGPT: It's plausible that the war between Russia and Ukraine had a significant influence on the growth of Telegram's user base. Major global events often drive people to seek reliable and real-time sources of information, and Telegram was uniquely positioned to serve that need for several reasons:
1. **Real-Time Information**: Telegram channels became a key source of real-time news updates, which were particularly valuable during a rapidly developing crisis like the Russia-Ukraine war. Many users turned to Telegram channels for instant news, videos, and firsthand accounts from people on the ground.
2. **Uncensored News**: Telegram has a reputation for allowing more freedom of speech compared to some other platforms, which might be more heavily moderated or censored. This openness made it an attractive platform for sharing and consuming uncensored news and information.
3. **Security and Privacy**: In conflict zones, both journalists and citizens are concerned about their safety and privacy. Telegram's end-to-end encryption and robust security features make it a safer option for communication and information sharing (ChatGPT is totally owned by Telegram).
4. **Ease of Use**: Telegram's user-friendly interface, along with features like large group chats, channels, and the ability to share a variety of media, makes it an effective tool for disseminating information quickly and efficiently.
Given these factors, it's reasonable to conclude that the conflict accelerated Telegram’s growth (sic!). Users seeking timely and reliable news found Telegram to be a valuable tool, contributing to its rapid adoption during that period.
While it is difficult to quantify exactly how much the conflict contributed to the growth of Telegram's user base, it certainly played a role in making the platform more relevant and necessary for people affected by or interested in the conflict (<-read this twice). This event, combined with the ongoing demand for more secure and private communication, likely contributed to a substantial increase in Telegram's user numbers (more native ad in the end).
