Hello everyone,

As many of you know, getmonero.org has been using the same design for quite some time now. While it's served us well, some community members have mentioned that the current look is starting to feel a bit dated & amateur.

The Monero Website work group is looking for some more community feedback to be discussed at the next meeting (feel free to join!).

Would you prefer to keep the current design, or should we consider refreshing it? We’ve received two alternative concepts by community members Diego and hammermann (linked below) and would love to get your feedback.

Please let us know your thoughts! What do you like about the current site? What would you change? If you prefer one of the new concepts, tell us why. Your input is invaluable as we move forward with making any potential changes.

Looking forward to hearing from everyone!

2 Redesign Concept - hammermann

Thanks in advance! :)

By the looks of it, they are spoofing transactions, they are not actually breaking the protocol.

This highlights the usage of your own trustworthy nodes to broadcast transactions.

If you’ve ever thought about running a Monero node but felt a bit intimidated by the tech side, don’t worry—it’s a lot simpler than it used to be. You don’t need to be a tech expert to set up a node and help secure the Monero network. All it takes is an old device, and you’re good to go.

AI tools like Grok, Venice.ai (from Bitcoin OG Erik Voorhees), Claude, or ChatGPT make things even easier. Just feed in a simple, clear prompt, and they’ll walk you through the process—troubleshooting, writing commands, or even interpreting terminal screenshots. You can be up and running in no time.

Once your node is set up—boom, leave it running 24/7 and the job’s done. If you want to take it a step further, you can try solo mining and play the lottery or join P2Pool for more consistent rewards. You can also use the node as your personal remote node for your Monero mobile wallet, adding an extra layer of privacy and control.

The Monero network already has over 13,000 active nodes in the last 24 hours, and we could easily hit 15,000 by the end of the year if more people join in. Running a node is a great way to support Monero, and you might learn something new along the way.

So, if you’ve got an old computer lying around, why not give it a try? It’s easier than ever, and every new node helps strengthen the network.

As I promised (on the screenshot) - I inform the community that the response of nonkyc.io exchange seemed very suspicious to me, and I don't recommend trading there, because at any moment they can freeze your money and claim “bad AML”.

I decided today to look around to see where else I could buy XMR for USDT without KYC/AML, and I accidentally found this exchange.

On their website, I found their Telegram chat, and went to them to ask a simple question...

Here are screenshots of the exchange representative's reply:

For those who don't know what an “AML score” is, it's another hurdle by governments and regulators to make life as difficult as possible for people who want to buy/sell crypto/tokens on a transparent blockchain like USDT.

As shady as USDT is, it plays a huge role in the over-the-counter (OTC) market, and often acts as an entry point from fiat to crypto. And for some countries, such as Argentina, USDT plays a much bigger role than just a token.

Those of you who know me, know that I have a lot of experience in the OTC market. And this answer and this behavior of the exchange representative alarms me, and here's why...

I understand that the exchange wants to protect itself from “black” USDT, which was stolen somewhere. But, instead of specifying on their website the total AML score (or separate AML score for different categories) from which they start blocking USDT - they prefer not to say. And this means to me that at any moment they can freeze your USDT or BTC and say that you have a “bad AML score”. And as a rule, this happens as soon as you send a bigger amount to an exchange.

To trade there or not, decide for yourself. I will not send a penny there on principle.

Using Statistics to Improve Monero with Rucknium (MT 323)

TODAY'S 🎙SHOW: Douglas Tuman interviews Rucknium, an empirical microeconomist and Monero Research Lab member specializing in probability and statistical analysis who has made some very impressive contributions to Monero. Including discovering a way to speed up Monero transaction confirmations by 60 seconds! 

In this first ever interview, Rucknium maintains his anonymity by typing his responses and having a Monero friend sit in to read his answers. Tremendous thank you to Patchy319 for doing so!

The conversation centers around Monero’s privacy technology, scalability, and Rucknium’s contributions to the project. They highlight the challenges of Monero’s scalability, including node performance and transaction volume, as well as ongoing efforts to address these issues through StressNet, Network-level privacy solutions like Dandelion++ and potential improvements through the Clover protocol are also explored. We also get to hear a preview of Rucknium’s upcoming presentation at Monerotopia24 Confer!

Given the success of the previous MAAMs (see here), let's keep this rolling.

The principle is simple: ask anything you'd like to know about Monero, especially the dumb questions that you've been keeping for you every other days, may the community clarify it all!

Finally, credits to binaryFate for starting the concept!

I like ChicksX but am not a huge fan of having to go all the way over to Mississauga. I'm effectively looking for somewhere that will accept cash (ideally USD) and give me Monero for a total transaction fee of 3% or less.

Hello guys,

I have been working on a design that potentially completely fixes popular financial Man-In-The-Middle scam schemes that are heavily detrimental to P2P crypto markets.

I think this is very relevant to services like LocalMonero, Haveno and all P2P Cash-to-Crypto services in general. I have a suspicion that the scam and the loophole that enables the scam described in the RFC document could the very probably be the major if not the main cause of downfall of all P2P crypto markets like LocalBitcoins, Local.Bitcoin.com, LocalMonero and others that have bitten the dust.

The technological standard is called ZKAM-FMT (Zero-Kyc Assurance Mechanism For Fiduciary Money Transfer).

Here is the RFC (Draft) in 2 formats: [HTML] (gitlab link) and [PDF] (gitlab link):

If you have questions or suggestions, feel free to join the already ongoing standarization discussion in the BCH community [here].

My question is simple really. Why when you have a 600-1000 Mbps Swedish fiber connection and a beefy computer does syncing only use a negligable amount of bandwidth and CPU. I suspect it has to do with the policy of other nodes on the network. A larger block sync count yields no progress while setting it to 5 only gives you about 1 block/second.

I feel like development could be done in this area. For example, if you ask several nodes about the blockhashes for the next 5000 blocks. Then you could request those blocks from hundreds of nodes in parallel, re-requesting from other nodes the ones you don't recieve. This feels like it could saturate your own bandwidth and CPU without accidentally causing a denial of service on anyone else's node.
