I'm trying to gain in depth understanding of how bulletproofs work. I'm having trouble understanding the bulletproof paper. I haven't studied maths or cs so the notation used in the paper is a bit foreign to me.

I really want to have an in depth mathematical understanding though so if anyone could recommend any books, lectures, yt videos or other materials to be able to understand bulletproofs that would be much appreciated.

Thanks again

I am trying to check the balance of my monero wallets using monero-wallet-rpc but i am unable to do that given the command of getbalance()
Is there's any command similar to getreceivedbyaddress() in monero that i can use?

First time trying Monero. Traded some on binance, I was in two minds whether to use the cakewallet or the official GUI. I decided to go with the GUI.

I have transferred some Monero to the wallet. First of all the wallet was synchronizing then starting all over again when it got to the end. Now it won't synchrinise at all.

What ia going on? Are there any known issues?

Is there a list of trusted sellers of Monero here on reddit? Localmonero is fine but the only thing I can do is trade amazon e-gift cards with XMR for anonymity and convenient reasons. I know that anonymity comes with a price but still trying my luck. :) :)

Many years ago, I bought Moneros through a broker

They were sent to this address (not provided by me, although my broker now claims otherwise ):

44LbNqbmRCmEPxZYmwKw2hbga37svZsHPQ6hLAK4mtApPoWrbpTBiKo6jW452raUXW3M7qUq7yztuchsNYgwYj8S5KQKK43

via payment ID:

82429a38173c893f94a9031da227483663ffb2dea8f115b1749b33ea194e80e0

Now my broker can not locate them anymore.

I see the XMR address
44LbNqbmRCmEPxZYmwKw2hbga37svZsHPQ6hLAK4mtApPoWrbpTBiKo6jW452raUXW3M7qUq7yztuchsNYgwYj8S5KQKK43
is returning in other post of people who lost Moneros.

Was this somehow a scam, does anyone have more intel about this address, please?

When using a split transaction (single outgoing transaction with two destination addresses) in a 2/3 multisig wallet, do the key owners need to authorise two transactions? If yes, is it possible to make it just one?

It's not about some shady markets which closed down recently.

Bitcoin failed to deliver an easy way for Multisig wallets until today, like it failed to deliver a reasonable scaling solution or privacy for its users. I think Multisig could be a key feature not only for markets (legal or not) but also decentralised exchanges like localmonero.

Is someone out there capable of doing that and bringing it in a really easy way into GUI or even other wallets? /u/rbrunner maybe? I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be the only one supporting it!

Real noob question, my account address and receive address are different, does it matter if someone sends somehting to the account address, or does it have to be the reveive address.

​

Also what is the actual site for the XMR wallet.

Lots keep coming up on google. is it https://xmr-wallet.org/ ?

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!

Hello, I would like to know how you guys manage your different Wallets / Accounts / Addresses because I need an basic idea of it :D

I created a new wallet and don't know what subaddresses i should use.

whoever wants to chose remote node manually instead of letting monero client use one automatically, here's one list from us since some other remote node lists are down. http://xmr.litepay.ch/

I installed the Windows GUI wallet and started a local node, and while it was syncing, I withdrew my Monero from Binance to my Receive address. The transaction went through on Binance, but I didn't receive anything in Monero.

A few hours later, I realized how much space the local node was taking up on my computer, so I switched to a remote node as I wouldn't have enough space for a local one. I'm fully synced to the remote node, but my funds still aren't showing up in my wallet. What's going on? If you need any addition info I'll give it ASAP.

Hey everyone, I've been interested in crypto's for a while now and have finally started to get into it a bit deeper.

I'm mining XMR and ETH when my computer isn't being used and while I don't have anything significant, I'm quickly realising that in time I'll have multiple wallets and likely a few different crypto currencies.

So how do you guys keep track of it all? What is a good way too keep track of my balances and earnings etc?

I figured I would ask here as the Monero community is more privacy conscious and like myself distrusts closed source apps and internet connected things haha

I know there are remote nodes but are there remote RPC nodes too?

I'd like to integrate a few monero wallet RPC functions inside a desktop app and I'd like to give the opportunity to the user not to install and run monerod and monero-wallet-rpc locally. Some users may not be technically skilled enough to do it.

I sent myself a small amount of monero before my blockchain had fully synced. Now the wallet has fully synced this transaction isn't shown in the wallet. I've checked and the receiving address is the same as the one on the transaction. Anyone had this issue before?

Please stay on topic: this post is only for comments discussing the uncertainties, shortcomings, and concerns some may have about Monero.

NOT the positive aspects of it.

Discussion can relate to the technology itself or economics.

Talk about community and price is not wanted, but some discussion about it maybe allowed if it relates well.

Be as respectful and nice as possible. This discussion has potential to be more emotionally charged as it may bring up issues that are extremely upsetting: many people are not only financially but emotionally invested in the ideas and tools around Monero.

It's better to keep it calm then to stir the pot, so don't talk down to people, insult them for spelling/grammar, personal insults, etc. This should only be calm rational discussion about the technical and economic aspects of Monero.

"Do unto others 20% better than you'd expect them to do unto you to correct subjective error." - Linus Pauling

How it works:

Post your concerns about Monero in reply to this main post.

If you can address these concerns, or add further details to them - reply to that comment. This will make it easily sortable

Upvote the comments that are the most valid criticisms of it that have few or no real honest solutions/answers to them.

The comment that mentions the biggest problems of Monero should have the most karma.

As a community, as developers, we need to know about them. Even if they make us feel bad, we got to upvote them.
