  • I think stablecoins will always have a centralized point of failure. Weather it is an algorithm, or having the coin backed by the actual asset.

    I think the best stablecoins are backed by the asset 1 to 1 or a little more then 1 to 1. Most stablecoins that do this are token on smart chain contracts which have another vulnerability which is being a smart contract. Smart contracts could contain a vulnerability and if it does have a vulnerability, a new contract will need to be made and users will have to switch their old token to the new tokens. Also censorship is an issue. https://cryptonews.com/news/tether-takes-action-blacklists-validator-address-linked-25-million-mev-bot-drain-heres-what-happened.htm

    And these stablecoins are not private. The only private stablecoin platform out there is Haven but Haven assets are not backed 1 to 1.

    I hope there are plently of stablecoins issued on Zano in the future. Zano allows you to create an asset without creating a smart contract. All assets on Zano are private. I would like to see Tether, USDC and other issue stablecoins on Zano. Trusting the issuers on backing the stablecoin and trusting the issuer to secure their private keys to prevent hackers from inflating the asset will be the only vulnerabilities, but you will have privacy and a censorship resistant stablecoin!





















  • I think all cryptocurrency blockchains that function as money or store of value should do this. However I think 1 years worth is better than 10 years worth of data, or perhaps even less than a years worth of data.

    As long as the blockchain size remains small enough for the adverage Joe to store the entire chain onto their mining computer for when or if Monero reaches mainstream mass adoption usage. By mainstream mass adoption I mean Monero is used as much as Visa or Mastcard is globally which I would assume will mean that Monero will need to handle 1 million transactions per second.





  • I may at times only have access to HTTP only (No HTTPS) which is one of the reasons why I want another form of encryption.

    Encryption with most VPNs are more secure than HTTPS. Yes, the connection between the VPN server and the web server is not encrypted with the VPN and only HTTPS. However the encryption between the VPN and personal device is superior, not because it is relayed. My understanding is that HTTPS is “secure” for basic use, just like Windows 11 is secure. But not secure from five eye agencies unlike VPNs and other like systems like Tor and I2P.

    My goal is to have a user connect to a web server and have it not possible for the web server to know what is going on, nor can anyone snooping the packets in transit know what is going on. Not know the HTML structure, form field data, etc.







  • Do you mean sftp?

    I just played around with it. My file manager is Nemo (I am using Linux Mint) which allows you to connect to another computer using sftp and being able to browser the files and directories on that machine and be able to open text files.

    Not the way I would prefer to do it, but a workable solution.

    However I would also like to edit files on the machine with sudo privelages. I cannot connect to the machine as a normal user and right click in Nemo and open the file manager as root, as it will just open the sftp file manager as root on my device, not the remote device.

    I did find this as a solution but it makes my remote machine unsecure by connecting to the remote machine as the root user by enabling the root user on the remote machine. However rather use sudo than enable the root user.
