GrapheneOS just released the much anticipated Duress PIN feature!. You can now set a special "duress" PIN, so instead of unlocking the phone, it just immediately wipes the encryption keys in the secure element, making the storage data unrecoverable. Ahead of the game as always.
GrapheneOS version 2024053100 released:. See the linked release notes for a summary of the improvements over the previous release. Forum discussion thread:. #GrapheneOS #privacy #security.

This really is interesting to see. BTC down 16%, everything else down 20%, XMR only down 6%, and up 12.5% against BTC. Monero really has started to become more detached from the general crypto market movements. It still follows to a degree but not nearly as much.

Uploading this, right here!.So everyone can see it. It's actually a pretty good advertisement for Monero. Quite well done presentation. Shows the downsides of ring signatures, but through this you can see how FCMP will fully stump their tracing efforts.
Chainalysis is trying to wipe this video off the internet after the Monero community noticed it and used it to figure out most of their tricks (Hint: using your own node + FCMPs break 100% of their tracing abilities)

To my great disappointment, this is true even on the Linux version. As you can see there is the encryption key stored in the config.json. Common @signalapp! What are you doing!? OS keystores exist for a reason ya know π
TL;DR: Don't install @signalapp for macOS, it is not secure. I carried out this small experiment:. - I wrote a simple Python script that copies the directory of Signal's local storage to another location (to mimic a malicious script or app).- I ran the script in the Terminal and

β οΈ I see a lot of fake info being spread about Monero in relation to this leaked video from Chainalysis. Just to sum it up. Monero is NOT broken/traceable/honey pot whatever. Chainalysis is using spy nodes to correlate IPs to user's transactions, and attempting to corroborate.
π¨ BREAKING: Leaked Chainalysis video βsuggests Monero transactions may be traceable.β. An anonymous source shared a highly confidential copy of the leaked video with Cointelegraph. Here's the shocking information you need to know. π π§΅

Cmon. you can say it
The Department of "Justice" has once again criminalized the developers of an app that restores financial privacy. The way to fix this it to make money private by default. Privacy must never be "exceptional," or they will make it criminal.

yo @ProtonPrivacy Bitcoin transactions currently cost an average of $28 US dollars per transaction. If you care about crypto payments, you need to accept other coins that allow you to transact without unaffordable fees. If you really care about privacy, you should accept Monero.

Monero's privacy is about to get SO much better. The sender privacy improvements from FCMP are insane. It was already quite good, but FCMP takes it to whole other level, and will remove the one main weakness Monero has had for a long time, which is ring signatures.
We're excited to share that a pull request has been made for the Full-Chain Membership Proofs (FCMP++) integration into Monero! . The pull request is a work-in-progress and will be improved upon and reviewed to ensure soundness of the implementation.

This is why I'm excited for one of GrapheneOS's next big features, which is App Communication Scopes. This will allow you to prevent apps from performing IPC (inter-process communication) with each other as well as (IIRC) knowing that other apps even exist, in the same profile!.
Apps on your phone can see which other apps you have installed. Apps also often talk to each other without you realizing. To stop this, silo apps on separate profiles. Here's how it works & the benefits of secondary profiles.

I will always be proud to be a shitcoiner, and supportive of the most insidious shitcoin, Monero. If being an "insidious shitcoin" means being freedom money that's usable, private by default, and easy to use, I guess Monero is the ultimate shitcoin.
@efenigson @saoulidisg If you want to be outrageously hot, consider abandoning Umbrel, which supports Monero blockchain, an insideous shitcoin, and switch to Parmanode. I created it out of frustration, and have made it easy to import your Umbrel drive so you don't have to start from scratch. Save.

Withdrawals suspended during the final hours. Comical, but unsurprising. This is why the Monero community is glad to see XMR get delisted. The "liquidity" some people claim it provided has been very fractionally reserved, while suspending withdrawals up to days at a time.
Binance will delist #Monero in less than 12 hours. @binance also has Monero withdrawals halted for the past several hours citing "low hot wallet balance". Why would they not have ALL of their XMR in hot wallet knowing their delisting schedule?. Manipulation til the last minute.

Whether Durov truly stood against gov data requests or not. the problem is, now that he's gone, Telegram has become an absolute treasure trove, and govs want a taste. If he really cared about the users and was smart about it, they would have switched to E2EE by now. Makes it.
Telegram handed over 2,253 usersβ data to US authorities in 2024, fulfilling 900 official requests. The numbers of requests fulfilled skyrocketed from 14 to 900 after its CEO Pavel Durov was arrested in France. Follow: @AFpost
