    Monero: the secure, private, untraceable cryptocurrency

  • If you'd like to have a sneak peak on what is going on, here's a cute little YEAR OLD Pull Request, that reflects the current schism. I have strong evidence, that the author (perfect-daemon) is the same person, who's been calling me a scammer all the time and undermining my work in all possible ways. More on this maybe on another occasion. I think he consumed so much time of so many people, mainly on the chat channels, that I feel like I've already written too much.

  • monero-patches

    Patches that are not meant to be integrated or are not yet integrated, but can be useful ad-hoc solutions.

  • This time I saw no need of opening any branches in Monero Core/GUI. I only focused on maintaining the already opened branches and trying to get them merged. However due to negative propaganda towards my work, it was so far impossible to do it and I spent a good deal of time on trying to prove my points. So far to no avail. See the recently updated (very technical) report under this PR. An outline of this entire discussion would be that: - it was being misunderstood all the time (for 2 years now?), that my speed improvements were targeted for developers, who are supposed to compile the code very often and very quickly, rather than users, who would compile the code from source only once in a quarter. - as such, even though I provided objective methods of measurements (the Clang Build Time Analyser script), their results were being doubted all the time and confronted with measurements done from the User's perspective. In case of 7217, these measurements were underestimating my measurements greatly. - I had to create special tooling here & here, that executes the appropriate build time tests on GitHub's servers, where nobody can tamper the results in neither of the two directions.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • monero-mrl-mj

    Experiments for Monero Research Lab (MRL)

  • Rucknium, J-Bermann and me are breaking down the decoy algorithm in order to better understand its flow by performing statistical tests on it. For this, we need to have an alternative implementation. Python was chosen to be the language, which offers a large variety of frameworks and is widely used among Researchers. My take is being documented here.
