Any news when Monero mobile wallet will be released, currently it is very difficult to send XMR payment on the go.

Finally! I've been waiting for this for long time. We really need this. And we need monero on more hardware wallets really.

One would be a fine start...

ROTFLMFAO!

Latest update I have on RFC-HWallet (I was getting spammed with all the updates so turned them off).

Sweet Pr0n shot.

Dark Web Goliaths Are Turning Litecoin into the Next Bitcoin

Litecoin, really?

This is an interesting narrative. And one I have not proven myself. I have heard it is more true on asian dark net servers. But I would think the latest addition of Monero at Dream (I think?) would fly in the face of this a little. Dark net vendors are getting more savvy little by little.

Litecoin has historically been best positioned to absorb spillover from obsolete use cases excluded by Bitcoin's rise to power. When Bitcoin was too slow for Bitpay to work (Xmas shopping season) I used Litecoin instead because it was the only option I wouldn't feel dirty touching (ETH? Nope. Bcash? LOL git rekt. Dash? Oh Hell naw!). Cheesy

Despite my disdain for Vitalik's Bailout Fork, ETH has inserted/cemented itself into the primary spillover capture role ahead of Litecoin, but I expect LTC to make a comeback due to Lightning, cross-chain atomic swaps, and greater reliability/fungibility/decentralization proving its superior long-term fundamentals.

It's good for Monero that Litecoin is helping us break up the Bitcoin/Ethereum duopoly. Once a market relents from its Bitcoin maximalist supremacist monopolist (or 'Muh Flippening') paradigm there is no more protectionism and every coin must compete for users based on its own merits. That means cheap tx fees, quick confirms, low withdrawals fees, and extra features such as privacy.

I concur, competition is good for innovation. But that article is bullshit.

It's not a Monero ASIC, but if they can do it for ethash...

Now how do we find out how long they have been Burn testing these. Cheesy

I wonder if this will speed the POS timeline or lengthen it?

My main fear with Monero is that the government just bans exchanges from listing Monero. Sure you can use it, but there will be almost no place where you can exchange it for fiat (except meeting in a shady alley with a hooded guy bringing cash for your Moneros Grin

).

The US Gov (which I'm guessing is what you mean) has banned exchanges and they have survived so that right there tells you what will happen.

What if someone forks Monero then breaks security, does it reveal all?

Depends how many keys they collect. As far as I can see, this is just a data harvesting attempt, or a cash grab.

OK so they can only effect their future transactions? great

Any keys you give up to claim coins discloses all past transaction data from that wallet. Any transaction on the new chain compromises the ring signature for both chains. Not sure if stupid, greedy, or malicious, maybe they are all of the above. Just let it wither and die. I know some will trade their own grandmother for 10 cents, and you just can't reach those people. But anyone responsible and forward thinking (Monero hodlers?) will have nothing to do with cheesy ~~poofs~~ forks.

Whats the ETA on the snapshot?

All you guys that are just going to dump just make sure to move your funds to a new wallet before the snapshot and then again after.
