I think it's obvious I'm not a maximalist, but for anyone who didn't get the message, I just love privacy. I contribute to Monero because I believe it's closest to the private cryptocurrency I want *and* I'm able to make an impact there to get it the rest of the way. That doesn't mean I haven't talked with developers from other projects, offering to help (Firo, Zano, a couple Monero forks), submitting disclosures (Dero, though I technically didn't talk with their developers), or even just doing my best to participate in the community (Zcash).

I debated making a thread yesterday on this. Now, with the question appearing in my feed (due to the engagement), I figure I'll throw my hat in the ring.

(1/n) I debated commenting over the recent tweet by Monero about the first PR for FCMP++s being opened. A lot in the Monero community celebrated that extensively (even though it's still a WIP). It did raise my question "Why does the Monero community not have more fans of Orchard?"

I don't like posts that go

"Here's 10 reasons why MYBAGS is going to revolutionize cryptocurrency and also solve world hunger"

Even when there's something interesting happen, I don't like the exaggerated language.

I'm also wondering if we're in a Monero Renaissance. I posted the written up proposal Full Chain Membership Proofs over RingCT on March 30th. Just over a month ago. It'd be notably slower than a Seraphis version and not forward secret. That means a Quantum Computer could break sender privacy, something considered inherent to RingCT

Another day, another disclosure. This isn't isn't as exciting, as it was only in... unreleased software 😱

But it does provide a comment on the intricacies of working with #Monero, along with @HavenXHV's ( $XHV ) work on integrating with @THORChain. This does start with the $XMR side of things, and the considerations that must go into building wallets. There are two main issues people don't realize:

1) Lying about the transaction amount
2) The burning bug

August, 2021. The largest hack ever before in DeFi happens. >600m USD is stolen from @PolyNetwork2. A couple of weeks later, it's returned. Life's normal, for a bit. December, 2021? It was all at risk again, and this time, I was on the other end, with a new critical exploit. So, how did we get here? A bit of background. Poly Network operates a set of SCs on each chain, to hold the bridge's funds, yet Poly Network itself is a Ontology fork which manages TXs and has its validators submit signatures. It's these signatures used in the SCs.
