Breaking Monero Episode 01: Introduction

Welcome to the first episode of Breaking Monero! Breaking Monero is a series of episodes where we explain the limitations of Monero’s security and privacy in a comprehensive and understandable way. We give a sneak peek into some of the work done behind the scenes to evaluate risks and to make Monero better. It’s an ongoing process, and we are happy to have you here along with us for this part of Monero’s journey!

I am so glad I'm not the only one that can forget the big picture subject while on the way through the little picture subject. :)

Here in North Korea we love monero
We’re thinking to make it our national currency

Really looking forward to future episodes of this. You should have a little tipjar QR or something.

[RyanLackey]

I hope there will be some actual quantification of data leakage/risks, etc. in the future episodes.

Nice, this looks like a great series!

Great episode!! You should invite some of the people on the "opposite side" tho, will push your development even further than having people who just simply "agree" with you...

How about those alt-chains and difficulty ravaging attacks? Hidden pools mining and not even forwarding tx transactions?

[Greg_P]

Could anyone point me in the right direction for a video or blog that discusses the viability of the future of Monero liquidity. Thank you

[satan]

hey as you are suppose to be expert on subject, how well you think any crypto currency will hold if like world war happens (or some other huge crisis that involves multiple governments and many many countries) ?

[MarketYour-Luv]

I'm just learning Montero, is it a block chain? And how can I make a metaverse using Montero as the coin to access and use my metaverse?

Don't use captions at 13:36 I got: given to God over Syria a lot more different
types of information.

Community coins have little teeth. How does one get rid of a bad pool actor?
Who votes? How is it counted? weighted ?

[forgetitanyway]

Ban nicehash, or you pay for it. Stealing from miners, they just don't realize it. For that matter the FPGAs and ASICS will centralize things and you end up with a carnage like BCH and SV had.

7:18 "There really is no way to obtain perfect secrecy." Really? There is a Mimblewimble project out right now. Privacy is built in. Not as an option. Meaning it can't be undone. As it is part of the chain as a whole. Not added as a feature. Probably should have thought of that before assuming it couldn't be done. Not trying to seem rude with that comment. Just a bummer for me. Was a big supporter til they started talking about undoing what made love them so much.
