slips VS monero

The official SLIP-0039 standard itself confirms it is not possible to convert this mnemonic type to BIP-0039. Down in Section 9 "Compatibility with BIP-039":

For anybody new or returning to SSS, check out SLIP-0039: https://github.com/satoshilabs/slips/blob/master/slip-0039.m...

One of the big downsides of SSS is that it’s very raw and you have to do a lot of legwork to make it actually useable. It’s rightfully criticized for this and the argument follows the don’t roll your own crypto vein.

SLIP39 solves this by formalizing a protocol for handling SSS splits built atop standards for crypto key serialization (BIP-39). SlIP shards are unique on each generation so parties with the same underlying SSS shard can’t compare mnemonics, they’re mnemonically serialized, and have a checksum and group index metadata which makes a more sane UX possible when combining.

Well every wallet chose to solve this problem independently. Trezor proposed a new standard called SLIP10 to do BIP44 type operations coins that did not use secp256k1. Problem is, there are very few utilities I've found that will do SLIP10 derivations.

Checkout the SLIPs repo (https://github.com/satoshilabs/slips.git) and modify testvectors.py. We are going to replace the curvenames and last four show_testvectors lines with the following:

They use an open source algorithm which is documented here. Anyone can verify it and the recovery outside of a Trezor hw-wallet is possible if required.

It will be using SLIP-39, like Trezor and Electrum, or a Ledger rewrite of it. All the language about shards is straight from the SLIP39 spec.

This was all done with the SLIP-14 seed using the passphrase coinjoin if you want to follow along.

With the introduction of the new Coinjoin feature in the latest release of firmware and software, I had the need to dump some of my taproot derivations. Although blockbook can do this fine using descriptors in place of xpubs for taproot accounts, it fails on Coinjoin accounts. This is likely because SLIP-25 as 6 deep derivations while BIP-86 uses a standard derivation depth of 5.

The recovery of Coinjoin accounts is described here. Accessing them outside of Trezor Suite will 100% destroy all privacy obtained since Suite is the only keeper of the anonymity set for each UTXO. Using your CJ coins outside of Suite may also erode the privacy of previous transactions using your Suite Private coins as well.

Hi, I'm new to this crypto mining in general. I came across a youtube video that involves mining with a raspberry pi. I KNOW this is not profitable, but I wanted to do this as a hobby. However, I was left wondering, if I were to use the getmonero.org as my wallet, how I can trade xmr for cad? I've seen other reddit threads saying to convert to btc, then into cad using kraken, or using localmonero. But again, I am new to this, so any information on converting xmr into cad is much appreciated!

Decentralized Monero focused exchange is added support for Goldbacks in their v0.0.11 release.

Have you read through getmonero.org yet?

Subdomains are typically different servers with their own purpose for the same domain. As long as you are on getmonero.org you are on the same domain.

There's no documentation for this. It's a file checkpoints.dat in https://github.com/monero-project/monero/tree/master/src/blocks and it's updated before each release and then embedded into monerod binary.

Finally, while it's true that we've encountered bugs in the past, it's an industry-wide challenge from which most projects suffer from at one point or the other, even for big projects like Monero. Such issues, while unfortunate, do not invalidate the overall value of the projects suffering from them as long as they keep on building and getting more and more secure over time. We are and have always as been transparent about these issues and remain committed to our mission of building a privacy-first, pro-liberty economy that's open to all, not just Particl users.

Connect to the official getmonero.org wallet with your Ledger, but you can't view anything inside Ledger Live. There are also hot alternatives like Coinomi, Atomic, Exodus etc.

This update brings the Cake 2FA security feature, Monero 0.18.2.2 with the decoy privacy patch, auto-generate restore height for Monero restore QR codes, and more!
