@jean kommt drauf an.

• Hab beruflich leider damit zu tun...

Grundsätzlich geht das alles trivial per #BlockchainExplorer für alle #Shitcoins.

• #Monero ist der einzige non-#Shitcoin…

@heartshadows @JamesBaker you have that with cash too, abeit you can't steal the cash bills from the robbers back.

• Not that there ain't custodial options as well, but if I were to wire-transfer money to a scammer, I'd also have no option to recoup that money either.

Not to mention there are solutions like #PaperWallets that can act as #ColdWallets and allow securing funds through traditional means (i.e. [metal]card in a [bank]vault), so it's neither an unsolved nor unsolveable problem: My suggested options (#NowPayments & #ChangeNow) do offer a #fiat payout onto a bank account at a low fee.

• And with #Monero and it's #privacy, there isn't the risk of #kidnappings driven by #BlockchainAnalysis as unlike with #Bitcoin one cannot see the balance, thus not open up a #BlockchainExplorer and list wallets from biggest to lowest balance...

And yes, espechally Bitcoin holders of significant amounts face kidnappings at an elevated rate.

@lunch ROFLMAO!
press X for doubt

We've seen "transaction stuffing attacks" trying to flood the
#Monero #blockchain with a shitload of transactions not that long ago...

• It didn't result in #transaction fees skyrocketing like it did with #Bitcoin or #Ethereum but instead only those looking into the #BlockchainExplorer and those #mining found it odd that every block hat double if not triple digit transactions in them...

Transactions were still as fast as usual and still as cheap as they've been before and afterwards, so yeah, unless you have a PoC / Exploit / Whitepaper ready to point out specific weaknesses like the long ago fixed tx_extra field I'd say this is more alarmist than reasonable.

• I myself am not affected: I neither own nor trade #Monero but with literally billions of darknet and black market transactions in it, you'd shure as hell make a fortune selling your latest PoC to both sides multiple times over... ^

Alas that's why you waste my time instead of mailing Zerodium or other exploit brokers to negotiate your payment for an actual weakness...
